When yall hear "it was a bar fest" what does that mean to yall??? I'm trying to see something right quick.

when I hear that it sounds to me "Two nikkas on stage saying a bunch of random punchlines that could go towards anybody with zero attack towards their opponent" which is why I rarely if ever care when I hear something was a "bar fest".

Whats some legit examples of 'barfests'? Give battles please.
Lets see if TBZ brehs on same page.

Magic vs Chilla
Arsonal vs QP
JC vs Chilla
Magic vs QP

Just a few off the top of my head. All of these battles had a good mix of strong punchlines with personals (nameflips, specific jokes).

JC vs Chilla
Trez vs Fliiko L
Chilla vs B Magic
Daylyt vs Chilla
Craig Lamar vs Trez

Those kinda Battles.

Battles that are about punchlines/schemes/metaphors, with no performance extra's needed from the battlers to hide the far they're lyrically subpar/average

If you're not attacking your opponent are you BATTLE rapping? I don't know who Daylyt is talking to half the time.

But let's not overlook other battlers that are heavy bar spitters cause of that nikka.
The times he was in front of a bar heavy nikka he LOST (Xcel, Chilla..)

nikkas want battles to be 100% personal now. :russ::russ:
This is why some dudes love those wAck ass "top tiers" like Calicoe.
word im not tryna see two nikkas spit rumor/gossip bars at each other for the entire battle

only nikka i see that can pull it off smoothly is lux because he uses extended metaphors to keep shyt interesting
