I ignore anyone that says him vs Hollow was a tie. He demolished Hollow something awful. Nothing was even remotely close about that battle

Haven't watched that in ages but after checking again yeah, Verb out barred him.

Still not the GOAT.

:blessed:

Agreed 100%.

I don't know if there's a goat but I say Lux, Hollow and Clips have the best arguments. Verb is close

Neither Lux or Hollow have the resume to be considered the goat of all time. Lux has battled Mook in the old era, Calicoe(:mjlol:) and Hollow. That shyt counts for nothing. I'm sick of you dudes kinging a nikka that has done nothing.

Most of Hollow's battles off of Smack are :scusthov:
Bars and flow trash.

This your goat? :mjlol:

Lux's few battles eclipse Verb's career. Every Lux battle had impact.

Mook is pretty much the godfather of Smack/URL. He influenced every one.

Rex has been top teir since killing Un Kasa.

Clips 3-0'ed Verb and battles anyone, anywhere, any league and is damn near undefeated.

Hollow was top teir in Grind Time and URL. That Lux battle puts him above Verb.

Verb blew it by getting washed in his biggest opportunities.

:salute:Prez. He proved he's more ready than Law. His performance and stage presence is on point. :lolbron: at pointing out Law's awkward ass movements.

Whoever said Law loses steam in his rounds was right. That Stillmatic line was terrible. Peep. Jada and Styles in the first going:gladbron::wow: for him. Then he drops the DMX line and:birdman:

Tdot.. till the death of me
Yeah prez's style will work on the big stage.

in order for ty law to make the big stage, he gonna have to step up his performance. maybe take out a few bars from each round and emphasize on delivering his other bars with conviction.

IMO there really is no goat cause everybody got pros and cons

You can argue verb but you got the bullshyt he gets at summer madness then letting X factor real talk him to death

Lux just flat out don't battle enough don't know what y'all mean by impact not like lux making nikkas millionaires. Lux is the goat lyrically that is pretty undebatable IMO but hollow exposed a lot of flaws in lux game and it's a good chance on the road lux could get washed

Mook put in a lot of work but he has a ton of debatables and I can't at this moment say lyrically he better than a lot of people.

As others have said hollow has some bullshyt on his resume and a whole lot of generator moments. And I know some hate verb but lets quite lying verb got busy on hollow period.

Clips gets a ton of passes cause he is well liked and funny. No other battle rapper could get away with that many stumbles chokes and bullshyt rds and even be in the convo of goat. This seems to be easily forgotten when they evaluate clips. People hate verb so they hold his summer madness shyt over his head and won't let go. With clips he can choke in half his battles stumble slip bytch and moan during a couple of dudes rds and come unprepared in half his resume but drop a 45 minute excuse blog and all is forgotten. Love the double standard

Same double standard happens for Rex as when he is evaluated him getting his soul snatched By math all his bad performances and hell he just got smoked by calicoe but again this is easily forgotten with him.

So IMO ain't no goat.

there is such a difference between eras and so many different tangibles to rating someone that it is hard to crown a goat, and the only people that don't have any meh battles are cats that don't battle that often, so I do feel what you are saying

You look at Clips resume and you prolly think to yourself like damn "He might be a GOAT nikka" but when I watch the film, I don't see it

Clips has all the tools to be the best but dude doesn't apply himself. Clips started feeling himself early in his career and started slacking and getting passes for it cause he was a cool dude but the arguably undefeated title is a sham. He lost to b-magic and serious jones but people won't admit that cause people hate serious

On paper clips resume is one of the best ever...but how many of those battles was he just okay and free styled a third and it got spun into clips won/ is arguably undefeated/it was debatable?
