So ya girl mine now & i'mma Destroyer, you gettin' ya candy took
Run through them halls bangin' & shoot some kids in her like Sandy Hook
(I could possibly missing a Destroyer flip in the set up. Run through the halls banging didn’t tie in that great to me. Sandy hooks reference seems dated and the flip itself wasn’t that great)
Have his body shakin' when the arms is heavy, it's no secret
Aim & squeeze - I'll put the Cantonese 'til there's less of u than cities that speak it
(This was okay. Wp itself was cool but I think you coulda crafted the bar better. I think the set up coulda been about knee capping or something. Less of you u than cities that speak it was an okay to end the punch)
& then ya family go next, blast em head to toe when I load tecs
You'll see more shirts & shoes on fire in the front yard than an alt-right protest
(The reference was cool and relevant. You wouldn’t really refer to something getting shot as on fire, so the flip didn’t work perfect for me. Coulda been better but this landed)
Ease up on the internet rappin', wordplays forced & ya rhyming not hittin
Ironic how you stick out like a sore thumb & got one of those from trying to fit in
(This is clever. Good angle - and good personal. The flip is very subtle but I like it. Not a fan of when you directly references the wp/flip to tie it in but I think the bar was good enough to over come that. This was pretty good)
That 44 barks outside ya crib, i clamour chrome that batter domes
Shouldn't have tested me, so I'll have to make my point when I hammer homes
(Hmm the concept is clever af. My issue is saying you’ll hammer something is a stretch. You wouldn’t use that phrase in real life. I’m giving some leeway here because I’ve seen it done and get a pass before in live battles but it still feels forced. This is somewhere between okay and good)
I ghosted Ghost after he ghosted u, you hyping yaself needs to be done plz
How u been failing to get a Summer body for years but never leave in one piece
(Clever concept again. I think you executed this one well. I like the set up - just sounds good and good angle. “Life in one peice” doesn’t work perfectly both ways Imo (wording for bathing suit meaning) but I think it was close enough. This was pretty nice)
Got u ready to explode, the fuse gets meaner when it's short
Have a washed up legend arguing over a loss like Serena on the court
(Nice current event reference. The tie ins in the set up elevated this one. The flip itself was pretty basic. This was a good jab)
These are murder games, & dinners ready whether or not ur playin along
Kick the door in - You'll hear a click before ya eat like I was training a dog
(Lol this is pretty clever. I def like the concept. I do think you should have included something about shooting til he clip empty or something in the set up. Without that I’m kinda like “why is he gonna hear a click” and now I gotta rationalize if the bar makes sense or not. I still think the concept was nice and thought this landed.)
Boxing 101:
if Bags showed u'd have zero claim to fame w/ that style nerd..
u got ‘NO shot at Anthony’.. & now ur gettin beat by my Fury for claimin u Wilder
(This is pretty good. These word association punches seem to get less recognition here than in live battles for some reason but this one is clever. Beat by my fury isn’t clean both ways. No shot at Anthony was nice. You ended it nice too)
bring up SC & i'm DEAD. u aint comin w/ words that can hurt me..
i got robbed & lost a HOF battle to Meta.. u beat Sho's wackest verse of the tourney
(This is okay. This isn’t a very effective angle to me. I actually like statementish personals but this one just wasn’t that harsh to me)
so turn & retreat. or get slumped on a curb in the street..
this ‘Calamine'll Wet You Up’.. u'll scream in pain once ur Burned from the Heat
(Lol Blue you white af bruh lmao. Had no clue what calamine was before this punch lol. Anyways the wp was slick af. I think you coulda crafted something that fits better than “wet you up” and I think you coulda completely left our “you’ll scream in pain” but overall the wp was strong and the line was good)
forget war, his stock is beginner that's why im sendin shots at his liver..
when i Draw its Game Over.. i'll have ‘Knuck at Peace’ like im goin Rock vs. Scissors
(Ehhh this feels reachy to me. I’ve seen Rock Paper Scissors flips but this felt different because the np. I’d have to give a lot of leeway for this to work both ways though)
ur a fat ginger. now we're supposed to think u brawl w/ hollows?!
only reason we can Telluride is cuz you resemble a mormon living in Colorado
(That reference is so obscure it seems forced for the wp a bit but I’m giving that a G pass b/c I don’t wanna penalize someone for having a good vocab. Still think it feels forced though. There’s nothing in the setup that insinuates he looks Mormons. I don’t really think you can look Mormon in the first place)
keep rappin about guns but there's not a soul that is shaking..
seeing you Mix it up w/ a Tech....No - but you will Diplo in the rankings
(This was fine. The mixing it up with a tech isn’t the cleanest flip but the concept is good)
i'll raise the nine in the air then let the spark flex on you..
gun to ur temple – that's a ‘Hammer-Head’
approach that'd inspire Barc's next tattoo
(The concept is cool and it made me chuckle. Hammer head isn’t a phrase someone would actually use though.
we were talkin Trophy Cases then i laughed & got bored, it's true ..
compared to mine urs is Bare, Knuckle.. even ‘Fight Night’ wise i got 5 more than u
(This is pretty good. Kinda a loose word association punch but the bare knuckle is a pretty good np. Not a bad angle either)
Pretty good battle.
Knuck had a lot of clever, subtle bars which I appreciate. Blue is almost flawless when it comes to execution. If Blue misses a bar, it won’t be because of his wording.
This one was a close one. I think Knuck had the better concepts but I think his execution held back some of his punches. Blues execution was excellent but he didn’t i don’t think his top bars were hitting as hard as knuck’s.
This one is close but I’m edging it to Knucklehead
Mvgt Knuck
