His haymakers seem to be missing something though. Like, he'll drop a haymaker and it'll get my reaction, but it doesn't get that reaction, not as often as I expect from his style anyway.
I guess if his filler wasn't so weak, the haymaker setups would be stronger.
Sometimes the line that he ends the scheme with isn't really hotter than the build-up. So it's awkward. And does the "multis for multis sake" filler thing that a lot of Grindtime rappers do.
I think you guys have pretty much covered what Brizz's problems are, but I'm thinking about watching the Tay Roc & DNA battles to really dig into it. I feel like his Tay Roc material was better, I'm really going to have to look at the footage to see what aspects he has improved in between the Roc & DNA. I also wonder if I'm being to harsh in writing him off a little. Maybe he was uninspired by the idea of battling DNA. DNA clearly was uninterested in battling him. He's somebody who definitely needs to battle one of these top rookies, he needs to feel threatened.
I don't think his breath control can be fixed. He's rapping in a voice that isn't his regular talking voice, so he's always straining it. Maybe he just needs to get more comfortable with using his talking voice on stage.
