Don’t Flop

DFAFD: Don’t Flop All Fucking Day

Don’t Flop was founded in 2008 by friends Eurgh and Cruger. Like many other battle leagues, Don’t Flop has grown from humble beginnings, but unlike other leagues, it is now the largest battle rap league to be based in the United Kingdom. Throughout the history of Don’t Flop, Eurgh and Cruger have been active in a number of roles including filming battles, hosting events, clip editing, and (both within Don’t Flop and other leagues as well) the two have accumulated a decent number of battles under their belts as well. In general, Don’t Flop has a more lighthearted approach to the battle scene compared to many of the North American leagues, so in addition to having a large variety of battlers and battle styles, the league has also shown a strong willingness to experiment with battle formats, rather than sticking solely to the current standard of written a capella battles. Some of the battle formats that can be seen on Don’t Flop include freestyle battles, on beat and grime battles, 2-on-2 battles, compliment battles, and many more. The continued growth in Don’t Flop’s popularity has enabled the league to hold battles throughout the UK in addition to holding events in a number of cities in the US, including Atlanta, Chicago, Washington DC, and Detroit.
