Orc won this, although both had some funny concepts/ideas. Orc’s flowed a lot better to me. There were various points where it was a struggle to follow FGR’s lines... If you’re going to have a long line, it needs to be preceded or succeeded by a short one (or needs less syllables or internal rhymes or obvious pauses to make the cadence come off natural). There were various lines where FGR’s verse seemed to force in words when it should have been pared down.
Orc’s seen from space line was dope. The Joker pencil flip was done really well. FGR had some good jabs too. Leg day, pumping hand soap, etc. But, all in all, I thought Orc’s verse read more smoothly and hit a bit harder.
Good battle. Orc wins.
