Genocide - So this verse, to me, spoke on the motive behind some of the rappers we see out today. I can't help but feel that specifically, it was speaking of Eminem. Or maybe some subtle allusion to some unknown Blues artist, idk. Well anyway, the plot was a very interesting one. Character born from a life of hardship had no choice but to embrace and even adapt psychologically to his predicament. All in all, this was a very ill assessment on turning weakness into strength and being resourceful as the character in the story was able to turn something of a "curse" into an opportunity to get into the music industry (which is probably another form of curse in itself lol). very cool, bro.

Split Eight - Great verse, dude. A very nice coming of age story written with much attention to detail which gave the story much life, as other's have already touched on. I really thought the idea was interesting. It was rather unclear as to why the two friends didn't just become official lovers but i thought that maybe that was the point of the piece - maybe the regret? Or maybe they were a couple and it was supposed to be written from an estranged pov. whatever the case was, it was a pretty engaging piece...almost cinematic, for lack of better words. great job.

Vote - Split. To be fair, i thought both verse were interesting and Geno might've beaten more than half the verse this week but Split seemed to have brought his A game this week. Well done, u two.
