I haven't read many topicals at all since I was on RB. Black D and Auspicious were the only greats imo.

Someone make a real list. @trap? @Lars? @Pent uP? @Soulstice? I was away for too long to do it well. Richard Corey, Rikoshay, Sacrifice, TaLi and Vern Acular are mandatory inclusions, if we're basing this off actual topical battle competition instead of open mic verses.

Would you exclude any of those five? (I added TaLi to the above list because he's another clear-cut member of the top 10 or so.)

Bounce was awesome, he had this one piece about Billie Holiday that was very nearly perfect.

That's only B-Boys and Project RHYME, not even close to encompassing the best overall. I recognize a lot of those names, though.
It's tough because you have to factor in guys like Fracture, who probably has a 25-3 record in topical battles and is one of the best writers I've come across on these boards. But he never really committed to topical battling, so what do you do with him?

....funny enough I started making a list and I have a clear top 10. An elite top 10 if u will and then everyone else is an honorable mention but not one that I think fucks with the top 10. So I can't confidently name a top 20. Lol |

He probably isn't too well known due to only being active on RB (I think) but That Kid Cry is one of the best topical writers I've come across, and without doubt the most consistently dope, week in and week out.
Oats is really good too, he should be up there. Baron Mynd in his day was head and shoulders above everyone.

Also, question...do any old RB heads remember a guy called Atticus? And if so, where did he go?
@dead man @Soulstice @anybody else this applies to.

@Art he was..
pembroke was great. i remember being a little disappointed when you exposed yourself @Vulgar cause it was like losing a dope member of the site. as for the best..dynasty aka shivas siq'al is the reason i started writing anything besides battle verses in the first place. i think he would top my all-time list. after that it gets more difficult

And post links to their pieces.
The only way to be the best is to read the best.
