They got the best lyrics in the world...but only a few can make those lyrics into a hit. Lux, Surf, Clips, Math, all decent but nothing crazy.

Mainstream easy. battle rappers make shytty music even when they're tasked to do a battle on record. Think kweli vs diabolic.

Lowkey canibus is really the only battle rapper who was somewhat listenable

Perfect cause battle rappers usually make awful songs .

I think surf might be the best at making songs .

One example is Hollow Da Don - to me, Top 5 battle rapper and definitely one of the worst on an actual record.
