Recap: From Takeova Battle League, in a fiery, competitive and dope 3-rounder that featured a gang of sizzling name flips, piercing metaphors, stinging gun bars, flippant (that ‘raccoon’ line in round 1 by Chess was crazy) personals and brash punches from both battlers, after taking an ‘L’ to the more haymaker-lit Chess in round 1, a turned-up Swamp adds some wit and righteous bars to the mix and in both of the latter rounds the South Carolina emcee offers up a plate of more consistent darts that during condensed (Chess was still banging, but elongated and less potent in the 2nd and 3rd) turns that earned Swamp the edge in each round for the comeback win.
Verdict: Swamp (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Swamp – “Why the fuck you be walking around so angry for, is it because you little or something?, you think just ‘cuz your name Chess [chest] you always gotta be in the middle of something?”
