Recap: A battle that the punchline feen and true lyricist can appreciate, poker face perps Mad Face and Jey The Nitewing go at it for 3 fiery and competitive rounds with a more condensed Mad Face hanging in there throughout the battle via a boatload of clever punches, flexing (“I was hoping you got you stupid, the dumber the better, Nitewing with a chip on his shoulder, let’s ruffle his feathers!”) wordplay and permeable name flips/gun bars. But for all of Mad Face’s colloquial stunting and fire innuendo’s, the Richmond, VA, battler occasional bouts with mediocrity and near slip-ups would work hurt him here and there. That said, with Nitewing’s longer turns and an equal ratio of haymakers from each battler, both the 1st and 3rd rounds were scored as debatable’s. Thus leaving the 2nd round as the deciding factor, which the overall aggressive and versatile Nitewing handily takes what with a couple of fire (and rare) mid-round rebuttals, gripping (“I’ve studied everything about you nigga, your battles, your movements, this is basic shit, I prepared these rounds for a better you that, that you can’t even face me wit’, you’d have more of a life if you put into it that effort that I put into taking it!”) personals and consistently banging punchlines.
Verdict: Jey The Nitewing (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Jey The Nitewing – “My nigga you basically fucked, niggas that told you about me wasn’t making shit up, even ya mama tried to warn you nigga, keep making that Face and get stuck!”
