Really? So "you have a lisp so you cant say the letter S" is a 'solid' punchline now?
And even worse...
On Netcees you 41-12? No matter how you put a spin on it, fuck ya record player
When I hit him with thirty-eights it ain’t a class full of second graders
This is just a complete recycle of the joke "What's the best thing about having ex with twenty-three year olds? There's twenty of them". Jokes brilliant, but you can't just use the exact same shit from a well known joke and change the number to claim you came up with it. Hell the light punch in the first line is more original than the main punch in the second one.
I don't even know either guy, but the standards are really low if those are "dope". Knowing NC there will be some trolly response to this but that doesn't change the fact that there are year one rap battling bars.

i just voted on that battle. the lisp bar is a little straight forward so it's not really an amazing bar to me, but it's still pretty harsh as a personal, and that is probably what people are voting for more than the creativity.
the other bar was dope to me, but i haven't heard the joke you're referencing. if i had maybe i would feel differently, but as a fresh read it was nice to me.
i think everyone is entitled to their opinions, that's kinda what's challenging about texting in general. ive never dropped a bar i didn't think was nice in some way when i wrote it. but not everyone agrees, and some people have valid reasons why. you gotta kinda find a middle ground between what is dope to you and what is dope to everyone else.
