Ok.

Hi...

Bye...

This is the matchup I've been waiting for. I told yall Letter was a problem.

I'll just let that speak for itself..


You get extension after extension; bullets rain for repeatin ya bullshit.
Saw you took a bite out the Mag last week; now they'll see you eatin a full clip.
The same tired wp's & flips.. @Answer's breakdown described the whole thing.
Can telegraph shows the difference in connection between us when ALL ya lines are phoned-in.
Bitch, I got gunner optics; that red dot on the chrome's new.. let sparks fly.
The only Gunnar Optiks you got block out blue light while you comb through the Archives.
We ain't cut from the same cloth, it's actually hysterical.
Cause I wear the League on my sleeve --
Naming yaself "Letterman" was the closest you'll come to bein made of Champion material.
This win's signed, sealed, delivered; no one's sayin ya verse'll be better.
That means even if you're informal body you.. & I ain't even have to get personal, Letter.
They'll have to ice ya instantly when my rounds split you like a line of symmetry.
Doubt I'm better w/ a pen? These tracers'll outline Letter w/ the lead like calligraphy.
You play w/ the 1911's? Me too.. mine'll leave ya face disfigured.
Wake up in ICU; the Springfield Power Plant you next to Burns like Waylon Smithers.
Captain of the football team actin tough til the muzzle stare 'em down.
Cause if this jock strap's itching to pull off the waist, I bet a cup'll air you out.

& Just to prove that I’m real, I’ll keep clicking on the crosswalk - Human Verification
Fuck a vest.. It’s all headshots if I pull the pound on squares
I’ll take the sweeper & start banging on Neighbor’s roof like it’s too loud upstairs
U enjoyed ur streak? Well I’m the worst threat to this clown’s survival
It’s ironic.. you thought the funnel last, but it ended up leading you to a downward spiral
Online tryna prove you’re a boss. I’ll swing a hatchet at this pretender
He acts like a big man in the post, so don’t call it foul play when I start hacking his center
U scrape girls from the bottom of the barrel. Nobody wants yo bitch
I’ve even seen ur ixnay, & she’s someone that I wouldn’t even hold a normal convo with
Now I’m in a different bag cuz last week he made such a splash
So this shit is like a bankruptcy notice - u only got this Letter because you fucked up Cash
U havent shown growth or development, yet u excel around ur peers
So how can they say my opp’s elite, when he’s had that same worn out style for years
Wanna compare crews? My team carries snubs & we’re hoping for blood
But I doubt that nasal spray, & thats the reason why u’ll get opened up with the nose

Would've been better if it weren't the closer

Quote overload. Telegraph & letterman were creative but wayyyy too stretched. You could've cut out the 'i wear the league on my sleeve' entirely. Up and down verse but the hits hit.

WP is straight but blood & nose don't rhyme. Better as an opener than a closer

Not a bad verse, but the worst out of the few I've seen from you. You might've taken this with a better opener and closer.

Love the idea i feel the punch couldve been flipped a littler better not bad tho here. Neigh def got the opener tho.

Fuck a vest.. It’s all headshots if I pull the pound on squares

Fire.

I liked this one nice use of wp. Sinilar to neighs informal body flip.

This is light to me.

Now I’m in a different bag cuz last week he made such a splash
So this shit is like a bankruptcy notice - u only got this Letter because you fucked up Cash

This is actual more of a compliment in my eyes. He beat the guy you couldnt beat lol. I see what your goig for but in all reality you failed to donwhat he succeeded in doing. Hence why your the challenger and hes the champ.

U havent shown growth or development, yet u excel around ur peers
So how can they say my opp’s elite, when he’s had that same worn out style for years

Nothing harsh here but its a soft touch

Wanna compare crews? My team carries snubs & we’re hoping for blood
But I doubt that nasal spray, & thats the reason why u’ll get opened up with the nose

I liked this one.


This was a solid battle letterman ur cash bar actual deterred from your verse in my eyes. Maybenits just me. You both got a gun bar heavy which i can respect a dope bar not my cup of coffee tho. I think neighbor took this one more lands.

V/neighbor

Neigh -

You get extension after extension; bullets rain for repeatin ya bullshit.
Saw you took a bite out the Mag last week; now they'll see you eatin a full clip.

Dope bar even though you should be embarrassed to claim that inno wordplay as your own, even if it IS from a mag. That said, it's a little lacking in the freshness department which holds in back from haymaker status. 8.5/10

The same tired wp's & flips.. @Answer's breakdown described the whole thing.
Can telegraph shows the difference in connection between us when ALL ya lines are phoned-in.

Wp is cool, tie-ins are cool though they are a bit abstract in meaning on the surface 8.5/10

Bitch, I got gunner optics; that red dot on the chrome's new.. let sparks fly.
The only Gunnar Optiks you got block out blue light while you comb through the Archives.

The wp/concept is fire, I really wish you took a different angle than him searching through the archives. Think I would've preferred a generic concept in this case. 8/10

We ain't cut from the same cloth, it's actually hysterical.
Cause I wear the League on my sleeve --
Naming yaself "Letterman" was the closest you'll come to bein made of Champion material.

The overall execution and wording is all on point, but the letterman idea as a whole is gonna be hard to make fresh 7.5/10

This win's signed, sealed, delivered; no one's sayin ya verse'll be better.
That means even if you're informal body you.. & I ain't even have to get personal, Letter.

I like the concept and the tie-in, the execution could use a little more 8.5/10

They'll have to ice ya instantly when my rounds split you like a line of symmetry.
Doubt I'm better w/ a pen? These tracers'll outline Letter w/ the lead like calligraphy.

The idea is dope, but if I'm nitpicking the letter would also be written in lead so it kinda makes the concept weaker. 8/10

You play w/ the 1911's? Me too.. mine'll leave ya face disfigured.
Wake up in ICU; the Springfield Power Plant you next to Burns like Waylon Smithers.

This is cool, burns/smithers I've seen done before but this is more intricate and tied into his bar from last week. I'm not crazy about the execution on the simpsons side, though. 8/10

Captain of the football team actin tough til the muzzle stare 'em down.
Cause if this jock strap's itching to pull off the waist, I bet a cup'll air you out.

lol this is an okay closer, there's a lot going on here but I'm not a huge fan of the concept and it does feel slightly phoned in. 7.5/10

64.5 / 80 -> 80.625%


Letter -

Think I’m fake? I’ll catch him on the street then I air & erase em
& Just to prove that I’m real, I’ll keep clicking on the crosswalk - Human Verification

The overall idea is fire, but clicking just doesn't feel like a very strong verb for shooting someone 8.5/10

Fuck a vest.. It’s all headshots if I pull the pound on squares
I’ll take the sweeper & start banging on Neighbor’s roof like it’s too loud upstairs

Nah, unfortunately I've seen this idea done before, possibly more than once, and it was almost verbatim to this - so I can't give you points for a new angle on an old idea. Otherwise, this is decent. 7/10

U enjoyed ur streak? Well I’m the worst threat to this clown’s survival
It’s ironic.. you thought the funnel last, but it ended up leading you to a downward spiral

Not really feeling this one, telling someone "the fun wont last" as your primary diss just feels kid'ish. Could also be better executed. 7/10

Online tryna prove you’re a boss. I’ll swing a hatchet at this pretender
He acts like a big man in the post, so don’t call it foul play when I start hacking his center

Kind of an amalgam of old ideas but this is decent. 8/10

U scrape girls from the bottom of the barrel. Nobody wants yo bitch
I’ve even seen ur ixnay, & she’s someone that I wouldn’t even hold a normal convo with

Not a fan of the ex/ix wordplay phonetically even though it's not thattt bad. I think the tie-in could've been stronger here, though. 7.5/10

Now I’m in a different bag cuz last week he made such a splash
So this shit is like a bankruptcy notice - u only got this Letter because you fucked up Cash

The letter and cash ideas are both old concepts, so I generally look for new, fresh angles to justify using them and I didn't feel like this was out-of-the-box enough to justify it. It's also kind of a compliment to your opponent since the main punchline is that he fucked up his opponent last round. This one's a miss for me 6/10.

U havent shown growth or development, yet u excel around ur peers,
So how can they say my opp’s elite, when he’s had that same worn out style for years

Again, this is a slight a phonetic stretch but not thatt bad and if you had written "obsolete" instead, I don't think I would've understood the bar. 7.5/10

Wanna compare crews? My team carries snubs & we’re hoping for blood
But I doubt that nasal spray, & thats the reason why u’ll get opened up with the nose

I had a somewhat similar Nasal Spray bar against Neigh in the past, and I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess others have done it as well. I do like the opened up with the nose tie-in, but it just feels weaker because I know it's been done. 8/10

59.5 / 80 -> 74.37%


Overall, I don't think Neigh slept on his opponent for his second. IMO, I think this was a better performance than his Cash verse and he was remarkably consistent throughout. Letterman had a really solid verse, I don't think there were any examples of those "strappado" type wordplays that bothered me in his last 2 verses, but the main downfall here I think was just creativity. Unfortunately I've seen the sweeper banging on the roof idea done before, done the Nasal Spray bar against Neigh before myself, and the Cash/Letter bar was just too much of a repetition of old ideas without a new enough spin on them. That being said, I think Letter's verse still would've been hard to beat for at least half the league, I just think Neigh was firing on all cylinders and it was enough to give him a convincing lead.

Good battle from both sides

Pretty disappointed w both verses here, minus a cpl bangers
Too many forced concepts and a few played ones made for a tiresome read. You're both exponentially better than this, tho the bolded bars were fire
Mvgt Neighbor

Mag was hard to make fresh although the it was a current event flip
Telegraph was nice, tie in were perfect
Thought the gunnar optics was a miss
Champion material was a cool name flip
Informal was cool wp. Personal letter good way to tie it in
Calligraphy was a nice concept. Feels a bit redundant now tho because of 3 letter name plays in a row. Overdoing it man
Burns line LOTB DONNNN DEMARCOOO BANG BANG
The closer was a little convoluted for me bro but I respect the ties and creativity

Vs

Human verification was a nice concept
Sweeper line was fire although you wouldn’t bang on a neighbours roof if it was upstairs? Technicality tho and could have been fixed so I’ll leave it be
Funnel ok wp
The Bball like was nice
Ixnay was a little bit corny for my taste man. The wp itself
Fucked up cash was worded well but didn’t sting or attack him man
Obsolete a bit of a stretch imo
The nasal spray I’ve seen before so didn’t hit


I got Neighbor here but it’s very close imo

Good read fellas some nice stuff
