I know for a fact Big K is gonna have a round dedicated to talking about Iron's testicle :dame:

Yep. When I heard it announced, I was thinking Bigg K is gonna have a third for Iron like he did with O-Red going to the bathroom. SMDH.

The Nikiya situation. Nikiya legit left KOTD because Iron brought up his daughter's sickness in a battle.

Thats a way better angle. Depending on who goes first, they can both angle the fukk out of each other. Bigg K constantly kept calling KOTD nerds but he would still battle on their platform and get the bag from them. Lol.

What version of Bigg K can beat this Iron Solomon?

Maybe the Illmac version. Possibly the Head Ice version. Definitely the Thesaurus version with that B Magic/Fox fight rebuttal he had.
As long as he doesn't have any rounds where he just drops the ball flat out, he'll be fine.
Iron will have some good angles that no one has touched on with Bigg K since he is such a damn good puncher. Now that he has some trouble with his stock in the game, Iron can expose angles that haven't been used.

This is not exactly what you are asking, but I believe the only way Bigg K can steal this, is if Iron is not motivated IMO.

It's pretty obvious they way Iron selects his opponents. He puts himself in match-ups were he's FORCED to push himself and he can not slack.

If he's been watching Bigg K material, he may allow material to slip in there, that he would not otherwise allow if he felt threatened.

Verb has done that for years tho with his music. I don't recall him every making songs longer than about 3 mins or so. But still he gets to the point and picks some good production.


I think it’s a sign for me that although a great writer, it’s not easy for him to create material. His music and battles have consistently been short. That’s just my theory though.

The difference between him and your typical artist is that he’s not flooding the albums with guest appearances to make the song longer.

This trend of short songs & these recent string of 7 song albums is absolutely terrible imo.

A quality artist should at least be able to come up with 12-14 tracks of solid material.

I doubt it

1) It's already been done twice
2) Its wild homo and Bigg K is too macho to talk about another man's testicles for 3 minutes

Well he has ample time. He had potential talks to battle on NOME, but decided to focus solely on Mook.

If you think about it, it’s a clever strategy by Mook to push for it. Verb has to create unlimited material, which is something he’s never had to really do, and remember it without choking. Mook is relying on the old school way of “rapping until you can’t anymore, but is just using it in modern day battle rap.”

If you think about it, it’s lowkey one of the ways Cassidy beat Diz. Cassidy had so much material, that he didn’t even need what he used the previous night. It seemed like he could go even more rounds if he had to. Diz visibly looked like he didn’t have enough and even admitted he only had 2 rounds for the “second” battle and struggled to come up with more material. Obviously he had no idea that the 1st battle wouldn’t complete. However, I’m just using this to illustrate that those guys back in the day are accustomed to memorizing a lot of raps in their head without choking.

Hollow was not going to play that game with Lux. Why go into a marathon with Loaded Lux? I think Hollow is very capable of doing unlimited rounds, but he’s smart enough to pick and choose who to even do that with.

Yeah but that’s not really why this is happening. It’s because one guy wanted to produce so many songs in a short time span.

Besides, to be honest, with the attention span of today’s consumers and the short shelf life of new music, shorter songs and albums may be the future because there isn’t real incentive in putting together long masterpieces anymore. People forget about them after a week anyway.
