NBL Magazine Week 12

[~RustyGunZ~]

Introduction

Hello all. We are now just 4 weeks away from the playoffs. Last weeks showing wasn't to awful, though there were some upsetting noshows. Blue Bayou stopped by to check in and then went ghost. This was not alright. But even with that and Aero signing out like a scared bitch after a close lose to Shank, and Sharp signing out due to being busy, we still have a pretty cool week ahead. I remain the Champ, and will face Shank Sinatra this week for the title. ATM we have more people signed in than any point of the season, and things are looking up for the site in general. This is a bit late, but the perfect time IMO, right in the middle of the week. Without further adieu.................

Reviews
by Sharp & Knuck

Champ Match: Knucklehead vs. Sharp Nine

Sharp Nine: Sharp Nine decided to spend his last week of classes studying for his 9 finals and hanging out with friends that he prolly won’t see for awhile instead of writing a rap battle verse for an internet forum. As a result, his verse was fairly inconsistent, with some good hits but bad misses as well. Knuck’s verse was pretty consistent all in all, and he was able to hold onto his title with relative ease. Hopefully Sharp gets his priorities in order when he signs back in. :)

Boredom vs. Aero

Sharp Nine: The much hyped (by Aero) was pretty cool all in all. Aero opened up with a nice hit but kind of fell off. Shank, on the other hand, picked up steam as his verse went along, that butler line was exceptionally. His verse ultimately picked by every voter.

Knuck: I personally thought this was one-sided. Bore came with some nice stuff. Nothing amazing though. He could have used that nephew concept at a higher level. Aero's was dope to some people, not to others. My beef with it was it's simplicity. Some dig that though. His verse wasn't horrible by any means, just no heavy hits and a bit inconsistent. He signed out like a hoe though.

Strikta vs. Cashius

Sharp Nine: The controversy of the week. This was a tight battle, with both guys having dope hits that split the voters. BOTW for sure. Ultimately, Cash got more votes - some had it as a preference in style, some found different lines to be more effective, but he ended up getting it 6-4. The loss seems to have pushed Strik into another retirement, but we hope he’ll be back soon since he could really do some damage in the league.

Knucklehead: Really close one. Strikta lost and made another thread about voting. Cashius had a dope verse, his cyanide line was killer. Both were pretty consistent. It seems from most votes for Cash were "Style Preference" so idk what that means, for me it was that farrah line being forced and the closer being used recently. Most battles Strik would have been able to pull a W with that verse but Cash was to consistent.

fathead vs. R!canTheoryz

Sharp Nine: fathead showed some more improvement this week with a little better wording, though his concepts were somewhat lacking. His style seems to be a little more shortly worded than most guys use nowadays, he could probably benefit from a little more space for ideas to develop. R!can dropped a passable verse and was able to do enough to win comfortably.

megatron vs. Pryde

Sharp Nine: This one turned out a little one sided. megatron brought a lot of funny ideas that hit decently while Pryde wasn’t too direct with his verse - he had some funny ideas but consistency seemed to be his issue this week. Voters agreed and gave it to mega, who’s record is starting to reflect his skill a lot better.

Untold vs. Flo Real

Sharp Nine: This ended up being a lot closer than I would’ve thought and was a battle of pleasantly surprising quality. Flo’s wording and writing ability was big for him here, getting his ideas out really nicely. Untold just came with another verse that shows he’s quickly becoming one of the guys to beat in the NBL, with strong concepts and wording throughout.

Jay vs. Nigma

Sharp Nine: This one was a bit of a let down, since I know both guys are capable of cooler shit. Nigma’s drop seemed to be more focused on rhyme schemes and flow, which he did well, but as a result his concepts weren’t too hard hitting. Jay did decently, but he’s capable of more. In the end, voters agreed Jay had the stronger drop with better hits.

Lotto Smirk vs. CTRL Alt Elite

Sharp Nine: Lotto didn’t really improve coming into this week and had a meh drop, and while I liked CTRL’s verse it seemed to lack any big hits. Hopefully Lotto gets a better handle on text soon and CTRL steps it up as his competition gets better.

Battle of the Week

Strikta vs. Cashius

Cashius

aka Tim

Quote:
We need a safety like nobody's business

We all know Strikta claims he's bout that life. But you ain't burning guns, boss
Cause you keep saying ya'll need a safety soooooo bad...but you're NEVER turning one off
Dude's an alcoholic. YOU should control your life...the booze shouldn't, Strik
But unfortunately...Tiny Tim's got a crutch that Ebenezer Scrooge wouldn't kick
When my bitch wobble...that ass makes fucking her so easy, B...
When your bitch wobble...it's cause her knees are buckling from the obesity
No way have you EVER owned a home. We know you're more than cheap...chill
Only reason he throws a house warming party is because he can't afford his heat bill
Strik's gotta date rape to fuck. Next morning...them whore chicks'll just TRY and die
Most girls take the morning after pill to prevent pregnancy...YOUR bitches take cyanide

Strikta

Reppin' the backroad sticks of PA, aye Amish boy?....

Knuck crushed u, then u had a crying bitching fit
U just ass when it comes to the belt, like an impact of child discipline
& charging $5 bills to get fucked is what this lame sings
Is it fair a Abraham turn u to a butt whore? ..Cash does some strange things
Cash ain't broke tho, Amish mafia got his back w/ higher wages
He BEEN making bread.. & wood chairs, carriages, & them dope lil fireplaces
Add da fact ya girls hideous w/ a big wide mouth
I'd shove calculators up her dirty ass so what's on the inside counts
Need I remind u of B2B? Yeah, I thought u'd wonder
OK, C.. 'member I was grizzly & u got eliminated when I dropped da thunder?

Yeah.. I thought so..

Verse of the Week

Untold (vs. Flo Real)

Flo's equilibrium's off. He's an unstable, un confident kid
Only New Balance u'll find.. Is the one I leave in ya ass from stompin it in
Ya chompin on men. This fags in a mag for cum
When Flo's like "Brochure".. He's answerin a gay sex ad in the back of one
Ya neva grind on the street or supplyin the heat. Ur the scaredest coward
but if ya hustle n flo, ur a cracked out white bitch bein pimped by Terrance Howard
ur in a humble career mate, fastfood is ya clear fate
u'll make Sonic boom, n be employee of the month at the drive thru a year strait
when it comes to chicks, u prefer suckin dicks. i'll be honest n say
That if a bitch look into Realize, she'll do that n be aware ya obviously gay

The Power Ranks

5. Patrick - He just signed back in, but was on a 2 win streak with no losses and will be in the position for the crown soon enough

4. Cashius - Climbing back up, might get another shot at the title before the season ends. Great win over Strikta in the BOTW

3. Untold - Dude is coming up like he should be. Now, we will see if he can handle the upper ranks or if he will remain the best of the middle.

2. Shank Sinatra - Up for the title, won a very good battle with a known name last week.

1. Knucklehead - Still on top and on a hot streak. Who will finish me?

NBL Cypher

Chyeaahhh

you weak losers can keep using yah technique, I'm outside the cube learning to speak Rubix
in reference to my last line? yep, I'd say that the admission is true
oh and I failed to mention that my last line failed to mention you
in real life I'd press you, lemme explain further so you'll know what it means
I'd put the mack to you, true meaning of Rayge against the Machine
I've touched more bricks than wreck it ralph, and bleak went all turbo on the board
you're like mystique, always getting exposed as a bitch, only to take on another form

Jay

you'll get torched n burned, no need to wait your turn
cause I will put Alpo in a box, that'll have my dogs sniffing around his urn

Hush

Diss some played shit wit some played shit. Play the sidelines
How the fuck you diss a 03 line with some wack shit from '99
ur so sad and delusional I don't know where to begin
just sit there with a long face.. But that's courtesy of ya chin
I'm way better so I ain't giving respect
If I say i got it on smash its means a foot to his neck

Orc

i'll cross a blade to off his face, keep talking crazy & i gotta hate
cuz by now u've had enuff False Alarms to redesign Fire Drills across the States
tyna test the kid will leave ya witha sure founded death,
trust u ain't nice enuff Intestine...tho if u keep trying I'll wrap urs round ya neck
you a joke w/ bars. & losing to a new guy musta broke ur heart
& it's like u 'never ran w/ scissors' how you couldn't go Toe to Toe w/ Sharp
i never outed ya homesite. but fuckkk w/ that flip its obvious
only an RB head would use a Hush nameplays like THAT shit would body us
im the only person who gave this faaacking peer a hope
shut up, you KNOW u'd still be a wack worded knuck if i aint help u a year ago
you hopeless with men and ain't dope with the pen
its ironic around men you get a woody Allen & ya punches older than him
& R? lemme get backa atchu, i'll put hammer to this maggots crew
trust 'my Shots will lead to Rayge quitting' like some Call of Duty knucks do
& Rican saying Al took line is feeble and bores
whats worse: using Beyond's bars or not breaking midtier in 12 seasons or more
rocking those braids in '13 is maddd wack. shits gota go
knuck you got Corn Rows that'd rot all Farming produce across the Globe
bitch plz. stop wearing hick jeans.. i'll straight toast urs
.. knuck stays 'wearing out those Bootlegs' like the OTBVA posters


Untold

orc's chicks an animal. i'll drown the hoe when my dick spit
cuz the doggy paddle.. aint a swim move but what i use to beat ya bitch wit
knucks can crawl. including Ed, cant drop cool or zealous
u've had enuff off days this season that would make Ferris Bueller jealous
Shank, ya materials been done to death. i gotta be grimey, mate
so if ur tryin to be frank, Sinatra.. realize ur concepts died when he did in '98

Allen Knight

all u do is talk shit & go MIA, just to chill wit ur gay friends
only good at those childish games cuz ur the same size as the kids that play them
nigga were cool but ur a biter, smh ur really just a bitch bum

its been years & u never got good, LOL but idk wats worst liar
u gettin off'd by every1 or u thinkin about doing that for havin a losing record verse dia
dawg u an i kno u didnt do shit for me, my bars fuckin harms guys
shit if i wanted help from u....id skip the PM & read the fucking archives
^ dope rebuttal

Rayge

U're trading bars with Sub but he's smashing u hard, dont think u're a rival
cos u aint a consistent winner, this cypher's d only time u go back & forth with titles
plus u're a knuck, u should get tossed in Belzebub's lair
a man's nuts is the only thing Garlics..dats his idea of spicing up love affairs

Shank Sinatra

i'm cut from the same cloth as gladiators so i cop em wins
the cloth ur cut from u've fabricated into a skirt,panties n wig to cross dress in

Winner: Orc
Dope shit, dropped punches in bunches and didn't slack much at all

Runners Up: Allen Knight & Hush, either could have won if they posted more bars at the quality they were dropping.

Predictions
by Sharp Nine & Knuck

Champ Match: Knucklehead vs. Shank Sinatra

Sharp Nine: Should be pretty nice, both guys are pretty consistent and have solid wins and showings behind them. I have Knuck taking this one with a lot more experience behind him, but Shank is definitely capable of pulling an upset if Knuck doesn’t bring it.

Knucklehead: 65/35

Cashius vs. Untold

Sharp Nine: Another dope one. Most of Untold’s battles have been against dudes a lil below his caliber, should be good seeing him against some heavy competition. Cashius can bring it, he’s just been a part of two close and dope battles and I’m expecting this one to be similar. All in all I think Cash is stronger and should take this one, though it could be pretty tight.
Cashius: 70/30

Knucklehead: This is gonna be really dope. Cashius is one of the best battlers on the site at the moment, in my honest opinion. Thought GoW was crazy for putting him in the top 5 before he even battled in the earlier weeks, but I see why. Untold is dope as well though. He has some hard bars and is always consistent, not many misses, even if some bars aren't great they are quotable. Thing is, Cashius is the same way. I'm calling this as BOTW if both come with their A game. For the experience side of things, I'll go ahead and say...
Cashius: 60/40

Defiant vs. Edgar AlPo

Sharp Nine: Edgar’s been on a bit of a streak lately, winning his last two while Defiant’s been in and out of the league. That said, when Defiant shows its solid at the very least while Edgar isn’t always so hot. I have Def taking it since he’s generally been a better battler. While Chyeah’s flow-y style stuff can be an easy read, Def’s punches are generally a lot more hard-hitting.
Defiant: 75/25

Knucklehead: This is a hard one to call tbh. Defiant has been around for awhile, but can hurt with some simple punches that ruin his consistency. And most of his standouts are usually statementish. Chyeahhh was always a joke to me on NC1.. but I saw some stuff I liked from him in the cypher last week. He has the mind to create some dope bars, his problem is he does his verses like cyphers and has a lot of random nonsense bars in them, with a few nice ones. If he focuses and polishes his verse and edits out bad shit and replaces it, he could win this. I don't see him taking that extra step just yet though, so I'm gonna go with..
Defiant: 65/35

God of War vs. Strikta

Sharp Nine: Dope and my personal pick for BOTW. If both of these guys show it’s definitely gonna be a tight battle. Strik’s been having some cool battles but a few issues with voting, while GoW isn’t always the most consistent with showing. But if both show with their best, this is bound to be dope. Could really see this going either way, too close to call for me.
Either way: 50/50

Knucklehead: This will be awesome if it goes down. All jokes aside Strikta can drop fire. IMO, he is a bit inconsistent and some of his stuff I don't love, but he gets votes for some of it so maybe it's just me. Regardless, when he drops nice, it is top tier shit. He has without question gotten the short end of the stick lately in close matches. GoW is one of the best ever though. This is the dude who champed back to back NBL seasons, and not just later ones, the FIRST two seasons. HOF on NC, and well deserved. He hasn't battled lately though, so you never know. I feel like talent like that doesn't fade easily though. Big toss up, I'll say comparing legend levels..
God of War: 60/40

Utmost vs. Patrick

Sharp Nine: Good to see both of these guys back in the league, this’ll definitely be a cool battle. Both are capable of cool showings, but I’d edge it to Patrick for being more experienced. Utmost is probably capable of the upset, so Pat shouldn’t sleep on him.
Patrick: 70/30

Knucklehead: This will be dope. Was pretty dissappointed when they signed out, now with them both back we'll see who is gonna return with a bang. Swerve I always thought was good even though he didn't get huge respect on NC1 when I was there. Cool bars with a simple but harsh style, while still being able to bring some complex shit. Pretty similar to Striktas style to me. Utmost is good as well, can't recall any specific stuff of his though. For that, I'm going with..
Patrick: 70/30


Jay vs. CTRL Alt Elite

Sharp Nine: These two both have a lot of potential to do damage in the league. Both coming off pretty decisive wins, both bring a lot of cool ideas and experience. I have to give the personal edge to Jay on preference alone, but I could see either one taking this.
Jay: 55/45

Knucklehead: Cool one, some nice lines will come out of this. Ctrl is one of my favorite battlers from RB, but he seemed a bit rusty judging by last week. He will most likely shake it off this week. Jay is an alias from RB, I think people know who he is now if not won't tell. He was cool there though. Liked Ctrl more on there for just raw bars, and gonna have to go with him here. Jay has the tools to beat him though, so we will see how it turns out.
Ctrl Alt Elite: 65/35

fathead vs. Pryde

Sharp Nine: Should be an okay battle. fathead’s getting ever closer to a decent verse, concepts and wording have come along in a short time. Pryde’s got a lot more experience with him and is still capable of putting out some good verses. Overall I see Pryde as the much stronger battler and give him a decent edge in this matchup.
Pryde: 75/25

Knucklehead: Garbageeee tbh. Who knows though. Fathead still NEEDS to peep the tutoring section, he has to improve. Those keystyle LetsBeef verses are not cutting it. Pryde knows what to do but doesn't always do it well. He will most likely win with 1-2 quotables.
Pryde: 70/30

[~RustyGunZ~]

predictions continued................. yes sharp and I did such an indepth and dope one this week it wouldn't fit in one post.

.
.
.

R!canTheoryz vs. megatron

Sharp Nine: R!can’s been disproving the old NC saying of ‘Rican loses’ lately, with two straight wins that have me questioning all that is right in the cosmos. megatron’s generally pretty solid, with funny concepts that are sometimes held back by stretched wording. Despite that he’s generally a better battler, so I give him the edge in this matchup
megatron: 65/35

Knucklehead: Rican is doing his thing, getting his first back to back wins in what I imagine is years. They weren't solid comp though. Megatron is getting better by the week. Rican can possibly win, if he polishes his wording. That is what kills him the most. RICAN STOP STRUCTURING LIKE U CUT A LONGBAR IN HALF. tron had some cool lines last week, if he comes with 1-2 of those and some other decentish stuff he will win.
megatron: 70/30

Lotto Smirk vs. Xnub

Sharp Nine: Two newer guys. Lotto’s been in a bit of a slump while Xnub just seems to be new to text. Lotto’s biggest crutch seems to be his stretched wording, which makes his okay concepts connect a lot less, while xnub is just new all around. Give Lotto the edge for experience.
Lotto: 55/45

Knucklehead: No idea. Lotto was improving and now has halted a bit. Gonna try to steer him in the right direction so we'll see. Xnub sounds really familiar but I want to say he's an OM head. This is a complete toss up. If Xnub is a battle head contrary to what I'm thinking he will probably win with experience, if not Lotto could get it with a better showing that lately.
50/50

GKillaZ vs. FGR

Sharp Nine: Two dudes just signing into the league, should be cool since both have some text experience. Based off the little I’ve seen from both I feel like FGR is a stronger battler. Gkillaz is alright with rhyming and schemes but his content could be a little lacking. He may have adapted before this battle though, should be cool finding out.
FGR:70/30

Knucklehead: I know FGR is from RIA, don't know which one he is though. He will probably be decent, maybe a bar here and there. GKillaZ is just awful. He will drop a verse that looks like a low level KOTD transcript and get slaughtered.
FGR: 80/20

Ronic vs. Rayge

Sharp Nine: Ronic’s a newer guy who’s made an appearance in some of those 101 threads. He’s getting a good handle on text for sure, but Rayge has a lot more experience and can probably take this pretty easily. Good to see him sign back into the league, hopefully he’ll stick around for the rest of the season.
Rayge: 85/15

Knucklehead: Ronic is from RIA, I think I know which one he is but haven't peeped his stuff. He's been in the 101's though so hopefully learning. Rayge is hot and cold. He has the right idea, but doesn't always deliver. If he just drops 2 or so concepts I know he can at a high level, he will most likely edge it. Could be an upset though, but yeah..
Rayge: 80/20

NYCSPITZ vs. 4t5

Sharp Nine: These two are both pretty cool writers, haven’t seen either one do a battle though. I edge it to NYC just because I feel like that dude is a wildcard. Or something.
NYCSPITZ: 55/45

Knucklehead: 4t5 is yet another RIA head, I don't think a vet though. He will be a surprise. NYCSPITZ gets a lot of slack and none of the respect he deserves. Clown on longbar if you like, but he was top 10 and was on the level of dudes like Dominate, Beyond, and Blue Bayou back in the day. He has the head for doooope concepts, but just either lost it or can't adapt to shortbar. If he tries, and drops something to the degree of his old verse, he'll blow this out. Either way I think he gets it.
NYCSPITZ: 80/20

Black Mask vs. EndSane

Sharp Nine: From what I can tell this one will probably be one-sided. Black’s a pretty dope battler, and while EndSane’s a good writer who has all that technical shit together, his battle verses are a little less direct. I have Black Mask taking this, but it should be a good read from both sides.
Black Mask: 80/20

Knucklehead: I haven't peeped EndSane yet, but he seems like a topical head. Also, his crew mates are lames other than Keith. YDK used to be cool but seems to try to hard to fit in with his new family now. Black Mask is dirty with it. Never was a top dog when I was around, but always nice, and wouldn't be surprised if he climbed up to the higher ranks towards the end of NC1. Easily...
Black Mask: 90/10

Death vs. Rap Maestro

Sharp Nine: So Death is DLB, and while I don’t know who that is, I like his alias a little more than Rap Maestro.
Death: 60/40

Knucklehead: DLB da boy genius.. the truth. If this isn't Maestr0, the young god will light this dude up.
Death: 90/10

Tryce vs. Lifted

Sharp Nine: I have no idea who these two are, but going 50/50 is for pussies
Lifted: 105/-5

Knucklehead: I think I know who Lifted is, don't know who Tryce is at all. So..
Lifted: 60/40

Outro

Word. Props to Sharp Nine for doing half the mag for my Netflix password. It ended up inspiring me tonight to make this one the dopest and most detailed mag yet. Let's keep things moving, we got a lot of heads in here now and I'm confident we will see less and less no shows. Go drop in the cypher and shake things up.
