Champ and Cont matches should be a minimum of 16, bro. Not 10.

16-20 has always been the general consensus, my man.

Good looks.

Fuck bro. I was voting on Killing Spree vs AKER and you closed it, lol.

Can you just post this in there for feed then?

- This was all over the place for me. I think you would have been better off trying to get a WP out of Currency and executing it that way..

Wen I penne verse? Italian wins so say cheese when the 12 gauge on ya
One squeeze on the bitch'll have the top of ya head look like a plate of lasagna

- I've seen and/or heard this before. For some reason, after reading it, it stuck out as if. This provided some imagery, tho. Cool.

Ya cypher bars made me Yak! & fueled this beat down to be SO dandy
My hooks so sweet & go pow durin my fights. so let me personally deliver u nose candy

- Wording extremely choppy. Could have brushed up on it a little more. I get the whole POW thing and the WP powdering but as is, IMO the choppyness killed this for me.

ERry'thin u sable bout child rape. So I'll hunt a hurst cos u dead to me
I'll go @ the site & say fuck these kids! N before I could use the move this pedigree

- Same as above, you have wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy to much going on, bro. Think your concepts through, dawg. There are always alternative routes for executions.

I'm morbid bitch n ya form is shit... Proof that u so fag
Cos we've seen akrite, but now we use it as an example of No class

- Didn't like this.

vs

I go in on verses w/ the most savage of rights - fag u can't match w/ the hype
We can never say you’ve gone in pussy, considering u’ve never done that in your life

- Seen this flipped a lot, dude. You're rusty, it seems tho so I'll let it slide, lol.

ur the type of rat to stab cats in the back w/ a knife, ur not someone we trust
if u ever see killing spree u know he's leaving his homies to get thrown under the bus

- Eh, again... I've seen Killin Spree concepts flipped on him, at least any time I've voted on his battles, someone's used that concept.

see how that wp was executed? smooth n flawless when the boss is flowin
u force ur wordplay so much you've single handedly destroyed newtons laws of motion

- I actually liked this, but it was weak.

ur frail as fuck sonn u ain't clippin shells, one left hook could ring ya bell
every bar I drops unfukwitable which is fitting since u got knocked out by him as well

- Played concept, but a personal attack.

pussy u are nothing to handle, ur just a bitch getting thumped in this battle
they say behind every great man is a women so it's no wonder ur stuck in my shadow.

- This was slick.

OVERALL: Not sure what Killing Spree's doing but his verse was terrible, IMO. He typically has 1 or 2 bangers, but not this time. His wording was completely sloppy/choppy. AKER seems rusty but obviously has the battling mechanics down. Some played concepts but the more he battles, the more rust he'll shake and be able to get with the times of this new era in text rap battling.

v/AKER - Overall better verse.

voted on that contenders match.

never read anything from Enbombz or w/e his name is, but dudes has potential.

Mike in Brazil ayy

You in Brazil?

Nah I live in Miami I was giving y'all a taste of what it's been like everyday last week till today. It's Miami music week since ultra music fest was happening. Shitttt might have well been in South America all these foreign hoes

KS's first two bars are a prime example of why I hate the style of text battle on here. Useless lines. They offered nothing, but it's not a knock on Killing as it is the stupid ass wordplay over content format that is used here.

As gay of a gay as Aker is, his last bar shows what battle bars are supposed to be. Tiny bit of wordplay but packed with an insult done in a clever way.

I agree. Which I mentioned this in my vote, I believe. People are becoming overly excessive w/ the so called "Word Play" bullshit. It's corny, IMO.

Battle should be insulting/belittling your opponent.

Just to spice up the convo... ;)

Not fully agree. It really depends on type of the battle (live or online) and personal preferences of an emcee (some like harsh battle stuff, some prefer good lyrics).

In live rap battles where the crowd impression is very important, I agree, the insulting/battle stuff with easy to understand jokes and clear punchlines are key winning factor + confidence.

In online battles, where people can read the text over and over or listen to the song many times, emcees can get more sophisticated. They should work on combination of things: rhymes, ideas, delivery, etc.

For example, in our audio events we judge contests by our system (that became classic already): 5/5/2.

0 to 5 - Vocal performance (flow, delivery, etc)
0 to 5 - Song writing skills (rhymes, metaphors, etc)
0 to 2 - Overall impression, how well everything is put together.

Some emcees win with punchlines, insulting lyrics and dope rhymes, some crush their opponents with sophisticated lyrics about love and similar.

This is what I have been saying for a while. I have never adopted that stupid "wordplay over everything" style into my writing and frankly that style has squished my desire to battle often. It's why I have battled 2 times the past 12 months.

Word..

...Its what text has become.

Rather then, insult, belittle, smash your opponent.

@Toretto can open mine and Sajiros battle for votes
