Hello twitfight loving tweeps, here is today's post:
You ever heard of the Ice T and Coco vs AP9
twitfight? That was one classic example of a failed twitfight publicity
stunt. Why did I call it a failed publicity stunt? I did because despite
the attention that 30 year old rapper AP9 gathered by dissing Ice T at
that time,
no one seemed to care about who he was afterwards. Its a
publicity stunt because he never had a reason to hate on Ice T or at least he never
mentioned any thus his motive was unclear and that pointed to my learned
self that he needed publicity, gotcha. AP9 was seen on twitter making
tweets about how he had a carnal knowledge Ice T's wife, wow, I don't
know if he did for sure! The problem he had was that the attention
shifted from him to Ice T and Coco's weakening marriage. AP9 at this point began to look like a distraction because the focus had gone to a potential divorce. Both Ice an coco had
already been celebrities and it seems the whole audience got over AP9
too fast for comfort, they just wanted to see a divorce or a
reconciliation, they wanted to see Ice T and Coco twitfight. In that
same period, Coco's twitter following base reached the million mark.
AP9's twitfight stunt had turned out to publicize Coco and Ice T, an in
turn buried his career because nobody is going to take him serious after
that. Oh except he tries some Mark Zimmerman stuff.
During the period
when this lasted, I knew a lot of friends who had to look up AP9 on
search to know if he was a real OG. No one cared to look at this from
AP9's side you know, they only wanted to check his style and who the
clique he rolls with, but all they found was obviously not bright enough
to keep the buzz on him. He had no real game to backup his noise, you
dig?! So here is the strategy to manage it, before you ever think of starting a
twitfight to promote yourself, make sure your homework is done. Make
sure your background is sway and you've got a few user names to flaunt
you with promoted blog posts expressing your side of the story. It does
matter who you're twitfighting, pick someone your size, game on tight
and you'll gain recognition now or later. When you give people something
to see and read, they believe. To my dear 30 year old rapper AP9, I'll
have to say your twitfight publicity stunt failed F9 indeed. Sorry bro!
