Cake - a dope verse alluding to essentially your writing habits and why they are yours, while sprinkling in all of us, either being not deep enough or on the same level, no names mentioned but I'll take that as a complement ;). Dope imagery's here, from the opening melodic refuge of a soul and choice made to not be 'mainstream' if you will, to not being the sheep herder or the sheep itself. The wording, rather word usage was deep. It's rare I have to open a second page for a dictionary and look up more than maybe 1-2 words or phrases, I think I did maybe 4 times with your verse. I liked the analogy of a circle, pie like, and the division of characters or traits in life and writing making up the slices. That was a dope imagery, and solid way to move this verse forward as it was not a story but simply you speaking. These type of topicals can grow dull while reading them, but because of the congested thought process you done did good. I enjoyed the multiple reads faggot.

Tro - "Daniels escapes through the dick mad tight" I was sipping a beer and when I read this it came out... Nice imagery pervert. Where are you from? only ask cuz you mentioned six flags, the one in my neck of the woods in So-Cal? Shit is sooo dope. Moving on, sorry. I'll focus. The opening stanza was pure imagery of food being cooked by a chef who used liquor for it. Then the rat came along and was flushed? Tough to follow, but ever so enjoyable. The imagery is strong, and words hold much meaning in each sentence. That's why it is tough to follow, not that it's bad writing, it's just...like reading a book standing in the middle of the freeway, so much is going but that's dope. I'm not going to lie, this verse was a fantastical read and various levels, I enjoyed the language and loved the pace as each turn was out of left field. But...I still can't wrap my brain around the meaning, after multiple reads since you've posted it. I know it's not literally about a rat and alcohol, but possibly you struggling with the depths of that sewer of sobriety and how you've awoken in the gutter, scoured the earth as the drunkard and came to in a peaceful death. that's what I took away, and as I write that I just think of the illness I just read.



This battle is honestly the best I've read since that tournament with Lars and Deadman, each verse is equally the best of the week, if you to faced anything else you would win, up there with Oats which I really enjoyed. Tough vote though because of it. I enjoy the peer inside of a soul especially when its about writing via Cake, but I to have a drinking problem so the Tro verse resonates on numerous levels. I commend you both. Dont want to vote.


Vote - Cake by a millisecond. What did it come to? Honestly, nothing. I enjoyed the flow slightly more coupled with equally dope phrasing. Thank you whores, you made me think at least two people, albeit little semen enthusiasts, might be deep enough to write something worth reading.
