mook and verb will likely be a trash battle. its really verb battle to win or lose, if he can recapture any of his old self mook will be at his mercy because from a lyrical standpoint he cant touch verb. and mook is not that great of a performer either. it would really just have to be the crowd riding with him.
but verb is not the same guy and i doubt he recaptures that magic. its not in him. i was watching verb vs math and verb vs miles a couple weeks ago, and it was just a different verb then. he kept eye contact with the crowd, had a confidence in remembering and delivering his shyt.
now, he does these weird hand movements like he scared to drop something, be closing his eyes and shyt because he struggling to remember his shyt. that is not going to come across well on a stage.
trust me, i want verb to win, so we can set up him vs lux. the game need old verb back, he was a character, but he just not there anymore. that guy is gone.
