Hollow/Pat Stay is a battle that Organik & KOTD have been wanting to do for a long time, so low key, I am sure they are ecstatic that things did not turn out well. This still gives them the opportunity to book that battle.

As for as the battle itself, not really my cup of tea. It was a pretty even battle. They both won for getting paid for just one round. Unless its just a bodybag, one rounders are as safe as you can get.

The love Hollow gets from street style battle rap fans has always been interesting to me. I have always viewed him as sort of a corny/grindtime style type of emcee. That is more of his lane & this battle illustrated that. He would really be a good fit for KOTD, but they can't afford him.

Never understood this..he beat Big T, embarrassed Hitman, Rex n Mook stay ducking him, bodied Clips..had debatables with Surf n Lux..

To me he's one of the greats, would love to see him rematch Arsonal..

Dna is the archetypal Grindtime battler...he should be banned from url

Hollow is one of the top 3 battle rappers in the world.

I just view him as a grindtime/kotd style rapper that can be effective on street platforms. Just evaluate his style. The freestyles, rebuttals, corny jokes, etc. He would be a MONSTER on kotd. On the URL, he does win battles, but they do not turn out good at all. I know his battle with Big T gets a lot of love, but I can honestly say I do not like any of his URL battles.

I remember Verb saying he was surprised at the lack of love Hollow was getting in building for the Surf battle considering he was locked up not too long prior. @wizworld could probably answer this, because I know he was in the building for Hollow/Surf.

They had Charlie beating him 3-0 in the building, which was a joke.

Hollow doesn't really give me a "street" feel, which is the type of shyt I like. Hollow earns every crowd reaction he gets in the URL because he does not have a street style.

He is very well rounded & because of that, appeals to a wide variety of different fans. While he's kind of hit or miss on the street battle scene, I think he could produce nothing but classics for fans of that KOTD lane.

Dope blog from Shine. He made a lot of sense

Just started that blog.

It pretty much killed that argument nyggas where saying about "don't point a fake gun @ street nygga.".

For those that haven't seen the blog, K-Shine slapped the gun out of Charron's hand trying to be funny. He did it to throw them off. He did it as a joke, not because he was having some "real nygga flashback" moment. Now this is something I knew based on the footage, but having K-Shine confirm it himself just makes it even better.

Very interesting how K-Shine, a "street nygga," thinks slapping anything out of someone's hand is funny.

Did you miss the part where he said Bulletz stopped his round to say he'd knock him out with one punch?

Charron/Bulletz started the fukkery early. Glad they got what they got, honestly. Like Rex said, negus feel comfortable with Shine because its DNA standing behind him and not the Mobb. They're just going to keep testing him.
