Recap: Outside of yet another elongated, but this time subpar 3rd round, in this 3-rounder from URL’s Genesis card, a versatile T-Top uses a gang of hard-hitting personals, witty barbs, fire set-ups, rich storytelling, fierce punchlines and hardcore street rhymes to get another win off of Arsonal who Top had just upped in a 1-roudner the year prior. This rematch, while entertaining at times with Arsonal nearly causing a melee in round 1 as one of T-Top’s boys didn’t seem to take kindly to some of Ars’ more disrespectful bars at Top, often lacked substance on both sides (which can probably be due to them battling again so quickly). But while Arsonal was solid throughout lyrically, disrespectfully and aggressively, way too many pedestrian bars by the Jersey capo would also hurt in the end.
Verdict: T-Top (W) 2-1
Favorite line: T-Top – “Grab a cig and put the loosie over the Grape like Ricky Ricardo wife!”
