Recap: Dope, competitive 1-rounder from Grind Time between Brixx Belvedere and John John Da Don sees JJDD display some versatility by changing his flow up midway through his turn to dish some fast-rapping techniques when he wasn’t spouting fiery punchlines, cocksure boasts and piercing personals with his normal delivery. But a pretty solid effort from JJDD would be topped by the consistently clever wordplay from Brixx, the S.O.N.S. rapper spitting a gang of well-played punchlines, spicy schemes, braggadocios raps and pointed personals with a nuanced flow/performance and nary any filler to gain the win.
Verdict: Brixx Belvedere (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Brixx Belvedere – “So we on the same page, nigga you could catch a bullet scar, straight off the Ave, I ain’t street, I’m Boulevard!”
