The energy in battle rap is getting crazy. DNA picked the wrong lane to go down, he needs to re-direct that convo. Hollow will embarrass him in every way.
DNA can't win that with Hollow.

It's funny how the whole collective of Goodz, Clips, DNA, Con, Hollow, Math, Cor were all cool at one point, now half is beefing with another half but still cool with another half. It's strange.

Out of everyone in battle rap, I would have never thought JJDD could get Hollow so rattled like this. Now, I will say Hollow is with the shyts and getting JJDD back at every turn. But still...I don't think I have ever seen Hollow like this aside from the first Arsonal battle in Fight Club.

Simple. He goes all around the world battling everybody BUT the people who were there when he wasn't taken seriously. Plus he has his stuff together, there's tons of people that looked down on him back then, that he could HELP right now.
Hollow isn't one of them.

I never thought about it like that. Effectively avoiding the dangerous opponents.

He needs to reign it in. JJDD has a habit of

A. surviving fights he shouldn't
B. being average enough to not lose.

If hollow isn't his usual self, he could slip up. TODD may be crap, but he's not stupid, in fact, quite the opposite.

Yeah, JJDD doesn't die. He will lose here and there but he survives a lot of battles. But Hollow cannot show that he is getting to him either. I think JJDD just has a good habits of using personals against his opponent well.

Plus, he is like Hollow in the sense that they have battled all over the world. I think Hollow is just way more relatable to the general demographic than JJDD is. But JJDD doesn't cherry pick opponents as much as Hollow either.

it clearly matters
I dont think clips killed tayroc due to material it was the amount of time they rapped
tay roc and clips material was on par to me
but tayroc rapped 2 mins charlie was rapping 5 mins
if someone giving u double the bars yeah they won
so if Cal raps 3 mins and its on par with lux but he spit 12mins its clearly 4x times better in my eyes he gave you more bars


As far as the Cortez O-Red battle that wasnt a factor in Cor losing
but Red rappping longer made it worst :mjlol:
Yeah, all of that is moot because Cal wasn't spitting on par with Lux at ANY point in that battle breh. :camby:

Now thats the conflict, I have. Contrary to what @ReasonableMatic was trying to say that I am re-writing history posting some Mickey Factz tweets, we all saw what . Those are facts of what happened. The chokes happened. The slips happened. I initially gave it to Lux 2-1. And like I said the question of a choke didn't hit me because I focused on the material. Lux didn't finish his initial first round but he carried over the material in first to the second.



Actually, its between everyone. The league and the battle rappers agreeing on whatever the time limits should be.



They all count but this goes back to what I said about time limits being regulated in battle rap. Battle rappers and leagues wouldn't have those situations if the contract strictly makes everyone agree on the time limit.

I'm not disputing that, I'm saying that if you clearly see the bullshyt sliding on the league owners you suppose to demand time is up that nikka round done, Cal whispered that shyt the whole battle "yo...yo smack that's time"....request denied Terranio lmao
