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

[IronFist]

for the information.

This section is split on B-Dot, I'd say 70/30 in favor of him being a flat out biter. I'm part of the 30 mostly, in that while Dot has very similar flow and mannerisms to Lux, there are distinct differences in the rhyme structure, bars, AND content. Lux uses a lot of words and subtle references, but it's almost 100% embedded into a complete breakdown of the dude in front of him. I find it hard to follow Lux 50% of the time. I have to rewatch quite a few times to get it all, and I'm not a low-level rap fan. B-Dot is a little less obscure, but doesn't completely dissect his opponent in the same way. He does it well, but it's a little simpler and lands on the first watch. His conscious rap pieces are digestible and sometimes stand alone or get used for setups.

Overall, I think B-Dot is dope, but he's in a realm where you just can't sound like another dude and have ti go over. Doesn't matter to the majority of fans if the two dudes went to the same speech classes taught by the same dude with the same cadence -- the dude who is already established will appear to be the originator.

I agreed the majority of what you stated within the first paragraph. As far as the bold, I wouldnt say lux is the originator , moreso the first to pull from that realmn (possible). But you've mad very valid points. salute lord

In terms of style and moreso concept. Both of these dudes are students of Bro Polight. Lux is also a good friend of a cat by the name of Black Dot who is like this oldhead that use to rap. There's is youtube video where Black Dot ask Lux his influences to which Lux said "brothers within the conscious community. But also Polight ..........Remember The line from the Murda Mook Battle where he made mention of Lux being down with Polight (Lux is more indirectly, B DOT is like an actual member , check DOT IG and you'll see him chopping it up with Polight in the Studio. There also a video of Dot in the studio with King Los, Polight and this other cat by the name of Minister Enqi (this is around the time King Los drop the "Pound Cake Freestyle" he (DOT) already said the Myers battle was going to be his last battle and he was going to focus on spreading consciousness within his music. Given that they are both students of Polight (both give each other praise within interviews btw) . Also heard allegedly that Lux was promoting Polight books in NYC, you think they not going to be reading and picking up on little tidbits of info and intertwine that in they rhymes. If you peep some of Polight's video he has that same sorta delivery when he going in on a topic

Yep Darkest Cloud, Vakill actually spoke on that on his FB . To find it the actual thread go to FB and type "Donald Vakill Mason + Myers". 'Kill said something like it'll probably go overlook cause he is an underground artist and most are unfamiliar with his work, but he better not make it a habit. I believe Myers did it again in a battle dont know which battle. But he made a comment status that said "Okay you biting, Danny that's 2 times in a row" dont know if he deleted it or not (cause he went in on Kanye about a week or so ago and then delete some of his comments). or what battle he could have been referring to but this was AFTER the XCEL battle.

If I'm not mistaken B. Dot is also managed by Polight. That's one of the reasons that makes me think there's no way Danny Myers will be his last battle. If he gets crazy/semi-viral with Danny, then acts like he's willing to give up battling, he might be thrown the matches he wants.
When you think about it, Lux couldn't call B. Dot out even if he wanted to, because he would be kinda calling himself out.
