In this clip from his exclusive interview with VladTV, Jimz chopped it up with Battle Rap Journalist Michael Hughes about his Traphouse NY battle vs. Shotgun Suge, the lack of respect for Hispanic Battle Rappers, and his upcoming battle on R.B.E.'s "Blood Sweat & Tiers" card.

Jimz began by addressing his battle with New Jersey veteran Shotgun Suge, and how he thinks he definitely won the battle. He was surprised to see some fans still arguing the victory in Suge's favor once the footage dropped, but he is confident that he locked down the win.  

Jimz transitioned into addressing the lack of respect, and in many ways, racist treatment that Hispanic Battle Rappers receive.  He doesn't understand why people send him, and other Hispanic battlers so much hate, but acknowledged that it is a very present influence in the way fans view his battles.  He also spoke on why Cortez gets so much hate for his ethnicity, and how he thinks Cortez stands out because everyone from his era has surpassed him.

Jimz concluded by briefly addressing his upcoming battle on A.R.P.'s R.B.E. "Blood, Sweat & Tiers" battle card, and how he's battling a truly big name in the sport.  Fans won't get the chance to find out who his opponent is until the day of the match, so make sure to cop a ticket and attend the event, because the card is stacked with top-notch talent.

What are your thoughts on the reasons why some Hispanic battlers don't get the type of respect that their peers receive?
