presents.... "The Road to the Playoffs Begins Now" ***Week 7 Edition*** ![]() We are 7 weeks in & 6 weeks away from the end season tournament. The league continues to grow & familiar faces are making their way back in for their final push for a spot in the playoffs. While everyone is jockeying for position, there is still much to do before looking so far ahead. So without any more further delay, kick up your feet and let the sounds of Kendrick Lamar guide you through this weeks edition of the AOWL magazine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjlFqgRbICY OPEN MIC FEATURE #1 "Visitors" written by ill nik-A Quote:
WEEK 6 RECAP PATROWN COMES BACK & HANDS INNOVATOR HIS 4TH STRAIGHT LOSS, IN A 6-4 VICTORY.- After a quick 2-0 start to the season, Vator finds himself on a real cold streak, losing his 4th straight, this time a 6-4 loss to patrown, who overcame a furious comeback in votes to pull away at the end. While both verses didn't pack much punch, when it came down to voting, readers were practically divided in choosing a winner. patrown is now (2-1) and looks to slowly climbs the ranks as Vator looks for that early season magic to get back in the win column. RED GLARE SERVES MIKE WRECKA A 7-0 KNOCKOUT BLOW.- Wrecka started the season with a loss before stringing together 3 straight victories. After gaining the #1 contender label, he finds himself back at square one, after a devastating 7-0 k.o. served up by Red glare. While Mike impressed the readers, his story was not enough to topple what Red was able to throw together this week. Red is now in a title match against Frank this week while Mike looks to surge back into the rankings & possibly another shot to get a title match. CEREAL KILLA DROPS A GEM IN HIS ROUTE OF KUJA, 8-1.- The "Duality" partners went head to head this week & in the end Cereal Man delivered the harder blow, blowing past Kooj in a 8-1 route. Though the votes were one sided, both competitors dropped some very solid pieces & CK was able to put together the better drop to take the w. This was his first match in the league this year. Kooj, hasn't had the luck with getting battles in due to no shows & this marked the first time he is involved in a match with votes. He looks to get back to the .500 mark this week while CK tries to make it two in a row. ADONIS HANDS VINZR HIS FIRST LOSS & A DEADLY 12-0 KNOCKOUT.- Vin has started the season off very well stringing 3 straight wins until coming into contact with Adonis, who has been on a tear himself, serving up a 12-0 masterpiece last week. Adonis has proved to be a very elite writer in the early going this season earning himself a #1 contenders match this week against zygote. His verse was too overwhelming as voters were clearly in favor of his piece over Vinz. Though Vin takes a loss he remains a silent threat and will look to win again this week. ZENLAND GETS BACK IN THE WIN COLUMN, PUTTING A HALT TO C.D.M.'s 2 MATCH WIN STREAK, 8-3.- Veritas was riding high, pulling off two impressive wins with two impressive drops. But this week, the Zenmaster had his way. After a series of losses, he managed to put together a solid piece to overtake c.d.m., 8-3. Voters leaned toward Zen over the V, who seemed to had lacked a bit of that fire this week with his verse compared to most of his others this season. He still remains as a threat to anyone. The win marks Zens first victory in some weeks & he will look to add on to that this coming week. IAMBENT'S STORYTELLING LEADS HIM TO A 8-0 SHUTOUT OVER ZEEDEE.- This match was the perfect example of a strong conceptual piece going up against a strong written story. In the end however, BenT was able to put together one of the strongest, if not THE strongest verse of the week in his 8-0 victory over ZeeDee. Zee was riding off a quick 2 match win streak to start the season, but BenT, coming off a no show loss last week pulled off a gem. Both competitors are now (2-1) & with 6 weeks left, will look to string more victories as they make their push to the playoffs. INK HANDS OBJECTIVE A LOSS IN HIS RETURN FROM HIATUS, A 9-4 WIN.- This was one had Ink spilled all over it when it was all said & done. Objective returned from a long break to suffer a 9-4 loss to Ink this week. This match was similar to the Vator/patrown battle, with two short verses doing battle. Difference here was both had more polished pieces. Most voters felt Objective could have had done a bit more with his verse which would have turned the tide in his favor more. I guess grapefruits are nothing to fuck it. Ink has now won two straight & can make it 3 with a win next week. TOPICALDOOD5 RUNS DAGEL OFF THE SITE WITH A 8-3 STOMPING.- HOF worthy verse. Best writer on the net. You lie. You lie... so bad. TopicalDood5 made quick disposal of the Dagelmite, putting together an imagery filled gem while cruising to a 8-3 victory over the now exiled Brass Body. This battle wasn't that close, though Body was able to get a few votes (but word on the wire is Adonis is still petitioning to have his vote changed in favor of Dood5). Dood5 really displayed his skill set in this one, and could be a heavy player for a title match soon. It was his debut match in the league. He looks to climb the ranks fast while we try and figure out where Dagel's so called HOF nominations went. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c8Qxtzk-bK8 A WORD WITH THE KING- PART I.... THE CEREAL_KILLA DISCUSSION King Keith: First off as we always do, introduce yourself to our readers yo. Cereal_Killa: Sweet.. I am an Aussie hiphop artsist/writer n creator.. I have doing hiphop lyrics for about 12 years I recorded 2 unmixed solo albums 1 mixed solo album 1 mixed joint mixtape I am currently getting my production company up n running.. called Black Rabbits Crixa which i've been working on n off for 10 years.. its taken so long due to the fact you gotta conquer everyday life as you master your dreams.. I got a big team behind me now and its all paper work n funding to get to the next step.. which were just comes down to time.. King Keith: Alright. So we got a hip hop artist on our hands here. When did you start competing in topical leagues & how long have you been doing it? Cereal_Killa: I signed up for writing on rm's league in 2003, so 10 years now.. I've been off on a few others sites but only for a few months.. I always found my way back to rm :) King Keith: You've been in about 2-3 matches so far this season. What is your take thus far on the competition & the league overall? Cereal_Killa: ahh man its complete crazy.. it resembles a beginning of something massive.. Over the years the great writers from a handful of the massive forums have all united over here.. But its not just technical writers, you got story writers, you got poetic writers, you got topical writers n you got ppl from all age groups n backgrounds.. Its a beautiful thing.. Im loving it King Keith: The league continues to grow and get tougher, man. Your name seems like an alias for a text battler not a topical writer. Lol. How'd you come up with it & is there any other aliases you are known by? Cereal_Killa: lol I havent battled in yonkers, i kinda jack this ish.. I write dark, sharp and in your face to make a humorous point about a serious topic.. so Cereal Killer came from the red n meth track "cereal killer" n my favourite character from the movie "hackers" i needed readers to know not to take my writing to heart as most of it is suppose to make you cringe first but laugh latter.. King Keith: Interesting. What's the deal with you & Kuja? How'd that come about? Cereal_Killa: I've known him for years one of my fav writers.. so when i heard that he came back to writing a few years back we teamed up.. Like ink said, kuja is a serious story writer he is amazing at displaying the environment and even when he does deep emotional pieces he manages to do it with such beautiful colours.. Wait until he does one of his full tim burton style stories.. :) King Keith: Word. Kuja is actually one of my favorite storytellers hands down. I definitely know what he is capable of. Well, oddly enough, you earned your first win of the season last week against your partner. This week you're up against me. Ha. How are you feeling about the topic & the match up? Cereal_Killa: Dude youra boss n def not just in the literal sense.. Its gonna b fantastic, i mean was playen in the check in but were gonna bring an inferno together.. The topics are amazing here, you guys always find some nice choices.. King Keith: Most definitely. It will be a good one. We've been experimenting ideas this whole season. Just wait until next week comes around. Well, it's week 7. What match ups do you have your eye on & any predictions? Cereal_Killa: yeh ok break down.. Besides my boy My must watch list is.. 1: Zygote 2: Red Glare 3: Iambent 4: Topicaldood5 5: Adonis But saying that.. every single writer in here is off the chain. like im talking they all bring their own flavour to the table.. That list is just who entertains me the most with their verses.. And its always subject to change.. King Keith: Interesting picks right there. Well, this marks the end of our discussion. Any shout outs, fuck yous & final thoughts you have, spill it. Cereal_Killa: Cool.. Shouts to the AOWL league itself and all the peeps making it grow.. PZ VERSE OF THE WEEK Not only was the title an attention grabber, but so was the story from start to finish. IAmBenT served up a gem last week against ZeeDee & earns the VOTW honors. Relive it all right here. "Concerning A Merchant To Whom A Harlot Sold The Arm Of St. John The Baptist..." written by IAmBenT Quote:
