Yo, I hate how Shine raps

I have a problem with his style somewhat but he does things I do like in battles. This battle and the Verb battle is how I feel like he should just be in his battles. Burst of energies with some very dope calm moments.

Not for nothing but E Hart is a great battle rapper, if i can recall she beat Jaz the rapper.

Hart is literally undefeated to me. She's the ONLY battle rapper male or female that i honestly think never lost. But some people do have her losing to fit/official/40 and Jaz.

I been said Hart should be batting nikkas like Danny/O-Red/Big T/Suge/Swave/Trez/Cortez etc.

It clicked to me halfway through the battle. This version of Shine is a god tier version of a WGH rapper and I don’t really like that style. Once my ears got used to it, I was able to appreciate what he was doing but it’s definitely an adjustment for me.

Top hit the angle properly. He talked about Dot being super pro black but going to Oregon St instead of an HBCU. He also showed that you can't be a gang member and pro-black when he said if you met Garvey would you tuck your flag. Like you can't be both. And you pro-black fukkin with Avocado. Top hit alot of shyt there.
I get it but the angle is weak to me. B Dot was 18 when he went to OSU. It not like he went to OSU last year. Most people that are pro Black become so after high school. Also Saga executed the angle much better imo.

Also,
unlike Geechi, Dot wasn’t defending Avo after his racist comments. It just didn’t hit to me.
The angle was that he couldn’t keep his grades up, not that he went to college. “You fukked up a great opportunity.”
That was part of the angle. The other part is that he went to OSU to play football as the previous post stated. B Dot having poor grades in college doesn’t make me look at him any differently. But like said it is a preference battle. I just thought Dot angles were better.
