He did have some real dry spots that we'll all catch on the replay, he not givin him no credit tho
Mook had the DNA effect where they were hyping anything he said, but on replay it's not going to look that crazy. Crowd got tired of Lux's style and they liked Mook's straight forwardness and he did have good angles.

I didn't leave that battle thinking Mook was better than Lux. Just like I didn't leave the DNA/Will battle thinking DNA is anything but garbage. But Mook clearly won and he deserves props.

that's there fault for not knowing their audience

all that had to do was perform some solid written raps and couldn't even do that, this might be the end

Personals are apart of battling. It'll never be the end, just some more fukkery to laugh at.

I'm honestly overwhelmed by how terrible everything about this event was. Not even sure I can discuss it. I mean, this nikka Sway was up there engaging in random nincompoopery on the mic. How many rappers we got in the house?
:what:
nikka what the fukk is you saying?

Were Ebro and Royce supposed to be a blaxploitation food stamp version of Statler and Waldorf?

How in the fukk do you spend all this time promoting an event via tv show, internet, and radio and don't even have the motherfukking mics on point? That's like going to an NBA playoff game and watching nikkas play with a deflated ball. Beyond unacceptable.

Joe Buddens was already one of the biggest doofuses in hip hop history, but this really cements him as a flat out disgrace. This lame nikka was rapping like he was recording a dis track over a beat, and he had so many basic ass, corny bars that it started getting kind of sad toward the end. Voice was straight horrid, stage presence was gay, he's gassin his own punch lines and yellin "stop my time" after ever fukking bar. Then he chastised the crowd for "booing the hard shyt." HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Hollow was mediocre as fukk, so it's hard to give him a W, but Joey Burden damn sure took the L.

The battlers ain't even stick around at the end? Word? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA Sway up there mispronouncing words and misusing "rebuttal" and making up bullshyt like "the championship round." nikka fukk you and your stupid ass hat.

Quite simply, without any question, the single worst battle event I have ever watched. No fluidity to it, crowd was terrible, battlers seemed either unprepared or just wack... Anyone who went or copped the PPV lost hard.

The biggest winner here? Smack.

all this acapella battling, is degrading to the piller of emcee'n.
plus, makes it easier for the major to culture thief, even more.
as their artist can't skip out on being real emcees with no pedigree.
plus, can demean the aspects of emcee'n.
from battling to actually being able to actually emcee, write rhymes or have a real professional skillset.
plus, it eliminates the major label from having cultural checks and balances.
as their talent can float along as culture thieves unopposed by unsigned talent.
plus, it eliminates the breeding ground of emcee's all across the board.

as the protege to the greatest battle rapper in the history of rap.
who could and is/was one of the best all time as a skilled emcee in the history of rap.

it was a plain slap in the face, to watch acapella battling even get any light to begin with.
as all the talent is offkey and nowhere near skilled in every facet of emcee'n.
plus, if they win an event.
they don't have the skillset or know.
to be able to capitalize on the little pr windfall from said win.
to be able to create a draw for themselves, either.

acapella battling needs to be done away with, just like the blaze battle.

shyt is comic view, meets saul williams of wackness variety show.

you can give personal's without reference past battles, that shyt ain't necessary you have to remember the audience you're performer from, but in this case all they had to do was impress the judges

Ebro seemed more than happy to see Joe lose, I think that was plan no matter how it went, he was literally laughing at the nikka, the whole thing was some bullshyt, but it just made rap look bad period from lack of talent
