Essential The Official Battle Rap Random Thoughts Thread (URL, KOTD, UW etc...)

[Supa]

Mind boggling how they choose one of the wackest nikkas to emulate. MR Wavy V Surf would be hilarious bad.

Shoutout to the dude in SDH that has Verb down to the showtimes.

I know you despise Surf but don't act like he doesn't have one of the best deliveries. That's what they're copying.

Rewatched a handful of Hollow battle recently, and it strikes me that no one in battle rap has a more significant discrepancy in how great he sounds the first time you watch one of his battles and how mediocre his lines are when you rewatch them. First time I watch him vs. Big T I thought he put that fat nikka in the morgue. The most recent time I watched I thought both of them were weak as fukk.

This is why I'm still flabbergasted people still think he beat Lux. I can see the first couple times watching it and coming to that conclusion but over time, it's not particularly that close.

Beat Lux the first time, beat him the 2nd time too

Negative. Maybe in some battles but 7/10 Surf is wack and sounds like an amateur.

Hollow isn't as good as advertised.. in fact I was the first nikka here saying Hollow is kinda ass. Of course I was called out on it. Other than the Big T battle, he never really spazzed like that, and his performances off URL are trash(vs Pass, vs Verb,vs Ars,etc). This was before he came back against Surf tho. After he beat Lux I had him #1 until he dropped the ball against Joey.

so Clips will wash Hollow right as he's ass...

Yep. I been had Lux winning from the start but in a close one, over time its became A LOT more clear.

True be told, I watch Lux's verses now and just skim Hollow's shyt

I think Clips is gonna wash Hollow

Hollow brings it all and gives us a show. Doesnt really excel in a particular aspect but is good overall.
Plus he seems a cool dude, a nikka you can chop it up with.

Yeah Lux won that battle imo. Hollow was too all over the place and basically lost the battle with that "I'm loaded for loaded for loaded" bullshyt

Hollow never been washed

Ill doubt Clips will bring a third round, let alone wash Hollow

 

[noodles]

agreed, Hollow beat Lux..Clips might win but never 3-0 body

I said that's what I felt before he battled Surf. Honestly, I don't know who is going to win this battle..

It's crazy how nikkas is trying to rewrite history. That "open and close em" shyt Hollow spit was fire then and still is fire now. "I skim through Hollow's rounds" seems to be the theme for a few posters. If you're skimming through rounds, how are you giving a fair opinion? Doesn't matter tho... Every poll i've seen had Hollow winning.

nikkas want to nitpick when it suits their opinion. Lux had a ton of filler that battle.
