Recap: From Chrone 23, Mr. Anti-URL, A. Ward, gets a 3-round rematch with Charlie Clips and in a clear display of battling way too often of late, spends an inordinate amount of time on dated (i.e. ‘syke I lied’, pops a snitch, fat jokes, ya pops a snitch) Clips’ themes that brought very little creative spirit, when he wasn’t kicking a gang of subpar punchlines throughout the battle. Nonetheless, after a sublime opening round that he easily took what with a plethora of hard-hitting set-up/punchlines, witty bars, fire wordplay and fiery boastful darts, midway through his 2nd round Clips unsurprisingly resorts to freestyling and still wins the round with enough off-the-dome (including one that A. Ward walked right into) heat and a variety of solid punches that with the help of his opponent not being on his A-game. The verdict already decided, a pretty pedestrian 3rd on both sides is edged by the Christian rapper’s spicy rebuttals.
Verdict: Charlie Clips (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Charlie Clips – “You wanna know what I learned from the Bible?, I’m able to lump this nigga the fuck up and leave his top leaking, ‘cuz I got to the part wher it said ‘thou shall not…’ and I just stopped reading!”
