Since 2011, URL’s Night Of Main Events has been home to some of the most memorable moments and matches from some of the notable names within the world of battle rap. However, for this year’s NOME XI, URL in conjunction with streaming platform Caffeine, took things up a notch by having Drake as a special guest for the headline battle, Geechi Gotti vs. Rum Nitty. This match was not only a rematch of their classic 2018 battle from Summer Madness 8, it was also the finals for a very contentious Ultimate Madness 3 tournament. In addition to the $100,000 cash prize for the tournament winner, Drake put up an additional $50,000 cash to add on to the prize. After an extremely crazy back and forth battle, Geechi and Rum both announced that they agreed to split the $150,000 cash prize, making for one of the most talked about moments in battle rap for 2021. You can check out photos from Geechi Gotti vs. Rum Nitty, as well as the rest of the battles from this extremely stacked card, and also from the announcements for Murda Mook vs. Reed Dollaz and Tsu Surf vs. John John Da Don for URL’s Summer Madness 11 happening later this summer on Caffeine. You can also watch the NOME XI battles on the URL app, available on your phone’s app store as well as your smart TV and more.
