Recap: 90 seconds and only one round, but it still counts. That is, Geechi Gotto versus DNA on the BET Hip-Hop Awards ’19 stage for 25K, which ‘The Champ’ edges thanks to a slightly more consistent flow littered with some dope wordplay, spitfire name drops and rapid shiners on current events. Gotti’s turn, while solid in its own right with some fiery/braggadocio punches/gun bars and a couple of nice rebuttals, still slacked in lieu of piggybacking too much oo his opponent’s bars and also coming off a little sluggish with his raps, which altogether cost him the battle.
Verdict: DNA (W) 1-0
Favorite line: DNA – “Y’all watch Power?, he better get down, I name my gun Trey Songz, it’ll mess up a big rich town!”
