Danny Myers defeats Don Marino

Recap: A bar or two? Sure. But at this point, if you’re going to dedicate an almost entire round on the tired subject that is Danny Myers wife and it ain’t beating that classic 2nd round Mike P. put on Danny last year, you might want to try another topic. Besides that, for a guy who battles nearly every week at this point, as even his opponent here, Don Marino, admits to, Danny always give 100% effort, something a lot of battle rappers could learn from. And while he’s struggled recently with lack of preparation in battles, for the most part (that is, when he was being original with his themes) Marino came correct here, spouting some ill lines and breakdowns on Danny’s battle regimen in round 1 and delivering some dope punchlines when he wasn’t spitting what would be his best round, the 3rd, which saw Don get busy with a versatile turn of rich-set-ups, some exquisite wordplay and fiery personals that didn’t involve Danny’s other half. Unfortunately for Marino tho, in both of the opening rounds an always energetic and performance-stunting Bar God was at his best, unleashing a gang of piercing punches, rigid wordplay, jaunty Mexican-laced personals, fire name flips, boastful barbs, a searing mid-round rebuttal, righteous chatter and rugged gun lines that hit with enough heat to take both rounds for the win in this rare 3-rounder from Gates of the Garden.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “You use performance to cover up your sorry flow, what, you think you the Mexican Hitman?, Sicario!”

Danny Myers defeats Arsonal


Recap: Things of note with this URL battle between Arsonal and Danny Myers. For starters, there’s no way Danny battling Drugz just a couple of weeks prior to this bout didn’t effect the overall quality of his pen game. I refuse to believe it. Secondly, are Arsonal and his right-hand man Ray Swagg really not fucking with each other anymore?!? That’s something I hadn’t even heard about on the gossip blogs. Lastly, while he still ended up losing the battle, Arsonal was really lyrical here. The disrespectful NJ vet only losing the deciding 3rd (got Danny taking the first and Ars edging the 2nd round) to Danny’s standard histrionics, wily punchlines and platform personals (tho that was a fire Jersey battle rapper scheme he delivered in round 2) because of an elongated turn in what was a pretty close battle throughout.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I will drop an atomic bomb on your house, i support the nuclear family!”

Danny Myers defeats Drugz

Recap: A superlative, name flip/metaphor-rich, classic ‘Who Am I?!’ 3rd round by Danny Myers caps off an overall superb showing from the Cali vet here in this URL Super Fight battle versus Drugz. Danny, who also served up a fiery mix of hitting punchlines, mocking personals and boastful barbs, would land enough haymakers to take both the 1st and final round, hurting himself a bit only when he attempted to blast his opponent on an alleged incident with Yung Ill in St. Louis and thus leaving the well-armed, blazing at times and aggressive Drugz with enough room to force a debatable 2nd.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “This battle was the highlight of your life and I’m the neon marker!”

Ill Will defeats Danny Myers

 


Recap: In a competitive and rambunctious battle littered with fiery punchlines/4-bar setups, swirling mayhem, rigid gun bars, piercing personals and boastful barbs, after the two split the first couple of rounds, a sublime ‘inter-sexting universe’ scheme (a crazy dope flip on Danny Myers noted  ‘Parallel Universe’ bars) by Ill Will in the 3rd round allows Will to take the deciding round for the win.

Verdict: Ill Will (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Ill Will – “Acting fearless, knowing I done scared more nigga’s than court dates!”

Jerry Wess defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Impressing again with fiery punchline after punchline, but also adding a fierce scheme game to his arsenal, for the first couple of rounds here against Danny Myers, Jerry Wess effectively drops a hammer on his opponent all the while withstanding a barrage of piercing heat and solid personals from the Bar God.

Favorite line: Jerry Wess –  “All that drive, thinking 40 the new 20…till you get a speeding ticket!”

Eazy the Block Captain defeats Danny Myers

 

Recap: While Philadelphia’s Eazy the Block Captain, aka ‘The Voice of the Streets’, kicked plenty of that gritty street shit and spicy punches he’s become well-known for in this Rookies vs. Vets URL battle vs Danny Myers, it’s an often unseen barrage of stellar personals that puts him over here. Going directly at Myers with shots at his prolific battle rap career, noted family drama, rap style and even adeptly twisting his parallel universe semantics for his own advantage, an also witty at times the Block Captain not only flexed his versatility when it comes to bars, but more importantly impresses enough consistent heat to overcome the usual palette of mayhem, stinging schemes/wordplay and aggressive punches from his opponent to take all 3 rounds for a victory.

Favorite line: Eazy the Block Captain – “A bald head nigger with no breaks [brakes]…you a crash dummy!”

Danny Myers and Baby James [DEBATABLE]

Recap: Pretty solid 3-rounder from League of Championship Kulture ends up a draw as a (“I ain’t come to talk about the skeletons in ya closet, but I got a bone to pick!”) punchline-lit Baby James delivers a slightly cleaner 1st round to edge things there, before a more condensed, punch-heavy, raucous and versatile Danny Myers returns the favor and edges the 2nd. 3rd round is another goodie with some hitting name flips/wordplay from Danny and more fiery mayhem/gun bars/personals from James. But surprising once again with another condensed turn that also spouted a couple of nice rebuttals, allows Danny to earn a draw for the final round and make this one debatable.

Verdict: Debatable

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Ain’t you a boxer?, ain’t no fight, I got the right route for this nigger, ‘cuz once I hot James’ toe knee [Toney], it’s Lights Out for this nigger!”

KD defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Some dope wordplay and residual boasts from Danny Myers here and there, doesn’t take away from one too many pedestrian punches from the Bar God over the course of this battle nor a slightly punch-heavier, message-oriented and personal-driven KD landing with a higher ratio of heat in both the 1st and the deciding 3rd round to edge the win here in this tight 3-rounder from STL Street Report.

Verdict: KD (W) 2-1

Favorite line: KD –  “You can’t be on ya high horse if ya life is in an unstable position!”

Danny Myers defeats Tink Da Demon

Recap: In a 2nd round Ultimate Madness 2 bout already filled with plenty of nihilism, visceral mayhem and head-twisting punchlines, Danny Myers also adds some piercing name flips and dope wordplay to the mix to help him edge all 3 rounds against a topsy-turvy and sometimes flow-challenged Tink Da Demon.  

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0  

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “You don’t like how Ryda name his guns? me neither, but I will introduce you to my blade…meet [meat] cleaver!”

Danny Myers defeats Reepah Rell

Recap: Dishing some fiery death-related lyrics in lieu of his opponent’s rap name, but also spouting plenty of unbridled mayhem and piercing punchlines/name flips, Danny Myers flexes with enough consistent heat and take the opening (tho he was helped a bit by a huge Reepah Rell slip-up in round 1) rounds and beat a solid overall, but also a bit elongated Rell in the opening round of this Ultimate Madness 2 tournament.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’m Kaepernick when I peel his skin, ‘cuz I’ll kneel over the body and never be seen in the field again!”

Danny Myers and Nu Jerzey Twork [DEBATABLE]

Recap: A battle that was in the air for a couple of years, Danny Myers versus Nu Jerzey Twork, finally takes place in Danny’s West-coast stomping grounds and for the most part it was well worth the wait. The always excited-just-to-be-here Danny, does his thing with a wide load of eccentric gun bars, some righteous/mocking personals and flexing punches that outside of a angle-muddled 1st round, kept him in the match. For Twork, a sublime 1st round with a barrage of visceral (“I’m looking for the Target near me, like Google maps!”; “Everything come out his mouth bloody, like a British nigga!”) heaters and rousing schemes easily git him 1st, before a slightly more versatile, mayhem-dishing and personal-driven turn in the 2nd was able to equal a standout and more focused by his opponent. With Twork still up one going into 3rd, even without Danny’s use of a couple of dope freestyles/rebuttals, Myers’ steely pontificating, gripping vet talk and fiery punchlines/wordplay in the final round was more than enough to beat back a solid, but not-nearly-as-potent turn by Twork and thus, force a draw.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Me on the big stage, no reason too, I ain’t never did Summer Madness because my bars ain’t seasonal!”

Danny Myers defeats Emerson Kennedy (Rematch)

Recap: A rematch from their battle about 7 years prior, URL puts Emerson Kennedy and Danny Myers on a roof for what turned out to be a solid bout of competitive boasts, punches and wordplay. And while EK openly felt that he took the first two rounds, the feeling here is that a slightly more consistently spicy Danny took them for the win before a punch-heavier EK salvaged the 3rd.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “You tryna bring Bar Code to the world?, I mean, I’m no conspiracy theorist, but wit’ all this Pizzagate, look around, the climate is hurtin’, it’s a New World Order – I say your timing is perfect!”

A. Ward defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Taking advantage of an up-n-down, pedestrian bar-prone and sometimes predictable opponent in Danny Myers, but also equipped with his own rich palette of feelgood sermonizing, steely punchlines, feisty schemes, mocking personals and of course, some flexing rebuttals, A. Ward scores a well-earned 30 in this 3-rounder from RBE.

Verdict: A. Ward (W) 3-0

Favorite line: A. Ward – “Parallel bars are easy…Jesus was a carpenter that died by hammers and nails!”

Danny Myers defeats Cobbins

Recap: Besides incorporating legendary freestyle rapper Supernatural into one of his punches, Danny Myers impresses in this 1-roundeer from The Connects with a gang of raucous punchlines, mocking personals, some fierce wordplay and boastful shiners. On the other hand opponent/Christian rapper Cobbins, dearth in personals we’ve long heard used on Danny and basic struggle bars, may want to work on adding some substance to his punches if he wants to join the likes of the 4 Horsemen.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Is this your breakout performance?, bitch nigga we flash cans, we documenting all of your Bull, this your Last Dance!”

Danny Myers defeats Madflex

Recap: Even with a witty, blistering and personal-heavy 3rd round, Madflex doesn’t have enough in his tank to survive a shortened and pedestrian 1st or being edged in the 2nd round punch-wise by a Danny Myers who came flexing with aggressive heaters, spirited schemes and some dope punchlines.name flips to take the opening rounds and gain the win.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Bitch, you called for this, some nigger’s be rushing to die [holds up arms like a gun] I sniped nigger’s while I was drunk, I trusted my eye, even when I’m buzzing I can adjust on the fly!”

Danny Myers defeats J. Murda

Recap: A 1-round RBE Social Distance battle between J. Murda and Danny Myers sees both battlers wreck the shop with plenty of havoc and artful boasts. But Danny, a little more consistent with his bar potency as well as displaying better use at incorporating his opponent’s ism’s into his bars, edges this one.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “They never seen a nigga from the West spit so clever, listen J [Jay] I started my Dynasty with the greatest intro ever!”

Pass defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Well, that was an unexpected turn. After a spitfire and debatable 1st round, filled with a boatload of fiery lyrical darts and gritty punchlines from both Danny Myers and Pass, the so-called ‘Bar God’ goes into cold turkey mode and pretty much throws in the towel on the battle, cutting short both his 2nd and 3rd rounds due to just ‘battling last night’. Not a good look for a West-coast vet, much less a disappointment to crowd members who expressed their feelings on seeing Danny concede defeat. For Pass too–who shined throughout the battle with a gang of stinging personals, braggadocios heat and some nifty wordplay–beating Danny when he was unprepared and not at his best, must feel a little displeasing.

Verdict: Pass (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Pass – “I’m whupping your ass for block ritual, I’m Shock G this old rapper Underground, but he not Digital!”

Danny Myers defeats Lord Rose

Recap: Competitive 1-rounder from Dade County Elite Battle League between Lord Rose and Danny Myers’ sees both battlers cook with some heavy name flips, aggressive punchlines, rich storytelling bars and plenty of boastful barbs. But helped in part by Rose rapping twice as longer as he did while also flexing a bit more versatility than his opponent, an also more condensed Danny gets the edge in this one.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’m a distinguished puncher, lean a brother, spleen a rupture, it’s always the social life of a genius suffers!”

Mike P defeats Danny Myers


Recap: Going forward Danny Myers might want to keep his private life to himself. Just saying, ‘cuz whether it’s his 10 kids, that $12K he gave T-Rex to battle awhile back or the illicit allegations in the air surrounding his marriage as well as his wife don’t seem to be ever going away when it comes to battle rap. And when you battle as often as Danny does, being on the other side of, frankly speaking, what was a scathing, explicit, punch-lit and undeniably classic 2nd round from Mike P, a flawless turn that went all-in on Danny’s other half and his personal priorities, one has to wonder how much a man can take. Tho to be fair, Danny always came to compete and once again delivered. The performance-stunting Bar God competing throughout this URL App 1 battle with a gang of fiery punchlines/name flips, hardcore/witty personals (had to chuckle when Danny started going in on Mike’s girlfriend in round 3, yet had to remind Mike about all the shit he just said about his wife in the previous round after Mike told him to ‘chill’) and brazen mayhem/boasts. But after the two split the first two rounds, a close 3rd round gets edged to Mike P as ‘Main Stage Mike’ used a versatile barrage of fierce gun bars, piercing punches and feelgood personals during a condensed to beat back a pretty solid turn by Danny for the win.

Verdict: Mike P (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Mike P – “Your slogan has become your life, and in the process, yo’ eyes been covered, you not stayin’ by the woman you love? Well, that don’t surprise me, brother, you on stage screamin’ ‘Parallel!’ on the same nights you and your wife should be beside each other!”

Hollow Da Don and Danny Myers [DEBATABLE]

Recap: The prolific Danny Myers versus the seldom seen Hollow Da Don on a West-coast charity card goes down with neither battler, after a spitfire (Danny: “Listen Nigel, even your name got a soft ‘G’ in it!”; Hollow: “I’m like a nigger that’s like ‘I’m a pay you on Friday…I ain’t got it ALL!”) but even 1st round, quite able to bring their A-game. Danny with plenty of raucous punches, quality personals and righteous lyricism/mayhem throughout the battle, errs when he tries too hard to emulate his more unorthodox opponent, which partly costs him a close round 2 when put side-by-side with Hollow’s roasting session quips, on spot performance hijinks and dope wordplay/personals. But with never any give-up in him, Danny comes back with a pretty solid (and emotional) 3rd round, that’s not only drenched with feelgood punchlines, but also some pretty (“I was choking ‘cuz if I lose my kids to the system I’m a hang myself!”) emphatic struggle bars that hit–altogether enough to beat back a surprisingly up-n-down last round from da Don and make this one debatable.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Hollow Da Don – “You coulda came here with Satan as your Plus-1…the hell with you!”

Danny Myers defeats Amzilla

Recap: With a bout versus Hollow da Don on deck, this GOTC: Body Snatchaz matchup against battle vet Amzilla could have easily been a trap match for Danny Myers. And tho a vigorous, aggressive, performance-zinging and (“Silencer equipped, that’s for all the shooters, it be sliding on the pole like your daughter’s future!”) punch/mayhem-heavy Amzilla would give the BarGod all he could handle for 3 rounds, thanks in part to ‘Zilla’s elongated turns, along with Danny flexing with a strong metaphor and rebuttal game, more condensed rounds with an equal amount of (“I don’t give a fuck when I catch you, I caught wreck with a few cans, I’ll let it ring at 12am, I’m checking for food stamps!”) haymakers as his opponent and fiery gun bars/name flips/punchlines throughout the battle, after a debatable 1st round it’s the highly prolific, but still dangerous Danny who edges the latter two rounds for the win.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’m at your trap, we gonna rush through it, don’t talk about how you gonna CHECK nigga’s…just do it!”

Stuey Newton defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Well…ummm….wow. Either Danny Myers was taking on too many battles or the parallel universe version of Danny showed up here against Stuey Newton and choked for 3 rounds. That’s the only way one can call it as Danny endures what had to be the worst showing of his battle rap career, stumbling, slipping up and eventually forgetting his bars in its entirety during each of his turns. A huge disappointment considering this was URL’s first show in Stuey’s home state of Washington and a big letdown that clearly bothered Newton as well as the crowd in attendance. Of course it should be said that with a sublime fleet of head-spinning gun bars, sturdy punchlines, braggadocios shiners and blood-dipped mayhem/schemes throughout his rounds, Stuey might’ve won this one anyway. But damn that he had to get the vic this way.

Verdict: Stuey Newton (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Stuey Newton – “I’ll do this pussy foul, like ho’s who gotta spray when they pee!”

Danny Myers defeats Big T

Recap: In this 3-rounder from URL, Big T provides plenty of hilarious hijinks, including an over-the-top funny scheme on opponent Danny Myers kids in round 2. But a slightly more consistent with the punches Bar God, helped a bit by T cutting his round short in the deciding 3rd, but also lit during the same turn with spicy wordplay, punchlines and personals, edges this one in the end.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “You was on Twitter askin’ niggas for beats to get your music done, cool…I’ll show up to your studio, and produce a gun!”

Danny Myers defeats Mega Da Savage

Recap: Two peas from the same pod when it comes to aggression, visceral mayhem, boasts and punch proclivity, even with a couple of reaches here and there Danny Myers is still able to supply more consistent heat and residual haymakers in order to win this rousing 1-rounder over Mega Da Savage.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll give this nigga a hundred bucks early…it’s like the earning app!”

Chess defeats Danny Myers


Recap: Gee whiz, the way Chess kept reacting angrily (nevermind the fact that he was all up in Danny’s grill and touching him while he rapped multiple times throughout the battle) to Danny Myers’ aggression early on in this crazy dope URL Born Legacy 8 battle, you’d think the yung’n had never seen a ‘Bar God’ battle and thus wasn’t familiar with Danny’s energy and exuberance on stage. Nonetheless, besides the near scuffle in round 2, a couple of minor slip-ups by Danny in the 3rd round and Chess with elongated turns in both of the opening rounds would be the only hiccups in this bout. Indeed, besides his battles versus O-Red and Rum Nitty, can’t recall Danny punching with better consistency then he does here with plenty of versatility (not including one too many shots at Tay Roc and Cave Gang) to match, not to mention a bunch of banging name flips, some nice rebuttals and the usual assortment of rigid mayhem, parallel universe screeds and fiery gun bars with a flexing performance to up the ante. Still, Chess was just too much here. The CakeLyfe capo never missing a beat along the way with stinging personals on Myers’ well-noted family drama, a spitfire rebuttal in round 2, a sublime twist to his opponent’s parallel universe in round 3, dope punchlines/schemes and steely wordplay/gun bars to edge rounds 2 and 3 after a more condensed and nearly flawless Myers edged the opener.

Verdict: Chess (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Chess – “He gon’ talk like he this wild vet ‘cause he was battlin’ on street corners and in lunchrooms, nigga, how you think they found Chess?!, somewhere in the fuckin’ slums, catchin’ wild wreck!, performin’ before there was even a crowd yet…like sound check!”

Danny Myers defeats O-Red


Recap: In this Banned Legacy 3 battle from URL, it’s an epic showing by the Bar God as a rampage-inducing, name flip-spazzing, aggressive, personal-lit, lyrically sharp and altogether punch-heavy Danny Myers rains down haymaker after haymaker (esp. during a flawless/classic 3rd round that contained a couple of mind-numbling freestyles) to beat back a clearly frustrated and mostly unprepared O-Red, whose 3rd round choke also heightened his opponent’s memorable evening.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “The system been corrupt, so sellin’ dope, it was a need to do it, cops used to plant base on us before the Vegan movement!”

Barz Major and Danny Myers [DEBATABLE}

Recap: Dope battle between two of the most energetic battlers in the game, Barz Major and Danny Myers, fittingly ends up in a tie as Danny’s substantive punchlines, fire (“Glock 5, running up on me bitch?, not wise, he tired of eating chicken…but I’m in line [holds out hands like a gun] to pop eye’s [Popeyes]!”) rebuttal game, stinging ‘parallel universe’ entries and piercing personals allowed him to edge round 1, before a debatable 2nd and a 3rd round defeat that while short on length, was still electrifying yet couldn’t equate to the stirring struggle bar themes Major took during his turn. Before his sublime final round, Major kept himself in the mix with a gang of raucous punches, frenzied 4-bar set-ups, righteous gun bars and piercing schemes/personals, a splendid effort that should’ve gotten him some extra shine even if he had lost the battle.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Barz Major – “Everybody wanna be sick till they get shot, better be cool, before ya ass catch something that you can’t pronounce…like mesothelioma!”

Danny Myers defeats Da Kid Clutch

Recap: After displaying a superb punchline game to easily win the 1st round, Da Kid Clutch’s pen melts a bit and becomes less consistent in the 2nd and 3rd rounds, allowing fellow West-coast battling vet Danny Myers to use a strong rebuttal acumen along with a boatload of fire name flips, righteous ‘parallel universal’ bars, heated gun bars and fiery set-ups.punches to win the battle.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I ain’t do no promotion for this battle, but I’m still a realer nigger, because Michael Myers ain’t have to say shit before he killed a nigger!”

Danny Myers defeats Ha Double

Recap: Roasting his more pedestrian opponent Ha Double with stinging personals (including reminders on the status of their current day battle rap careers since they started in the same PG class years back) and delivering his usual assortment of fiery punchlines and lofty schemes/gun bars that were matched by  over-the-top aggression, in this 3-rounder from Bayou Battle League, Danny Myers takes the first two rounds here for the win before a more consistent Double’s braggadocio synergy and forthright punches/wordplay easily salvages the 3rd.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Nyers – “Go get that nigga Ha, it’s gonna be plen…[long pause] it’s gonna be plenty of trouble, oh y’all ain’t catch that?, I stumbled into a bar and said gimme a Double!”

Dizaster defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Calm, cool and collected battle…yeah right. Loud, aggressive, intense and witty at times KOTD battle between West-coast vets Dizaster and Danny Myers contains a shitload of braggadocio lines from both rappers, heated gun bars, fierce punches/wordplay, nifty rebuttals (esp. from Danny) and a large quantity of steely personals which in the end would give Diz the victory after an elongated, but consistently fiery turn in the deciding 3rd round. That was after a more versatile, funny and (“He gonna say I ain’t a legend, try to play me like I ain’t Top 5, bitch I will stuff an Avocado up your mama pussy and make you watch live!”) punch/wordplay-heavy Myers took the first before Diz came back to tie things in the 2nd round with a (“All I got to do to win is clown on him like a twisted, metal car!”) visceral, more potent, performance-heavy and audacious turn that beat back a less haymaker-inducing round by Danny. And while he did rap twice as longer as his never-lacking-for-confidence, lit with the Arab jokes opponent in the final round, Diz’s continued riffs on Danny’s place in West-coast battle rap, well-researched storytelling bars, sharp-witted schemes and stinging metaphors/punchlines would prove to be too much for even the Bar God in the end.

Verdict: Dizaster (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Dizaster – “You’re 6 years older than me and call me an O.G.!”

Danny Myers defeats Franchise


Recap: A 3rd round choke by Danny Myers still doesn’t take away from the too cold ‘Bar God’ hitting with enough consistently raucous, punchline-savvy and name flip-lit (esp. during a stellar 2nd round) bars in both of the opening rounds, while beating back a sublime at times, but gun-bar obsessed, a bit redundant with the set-ups and elongated Franchise in this fiery and competitive Banned battle from URL.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Every line got a gun, he sho’ got over here though, look how loud we clappin’, these rounds, two .30’s [2:30’s], maybe two .45’s [2:45’s] with crowd reaction!”

Chef Trez defeats Danny Myers

Recap: In what was a pretty solid battle overall, Chef Trez’s spitfire guns bars and stinging punchlines/wordplay over the course of 3 rounds, coupled with some fly rebuttals and feisty schemes are enough to earn the Cave Gang member a clear win in the 1st and 3rd rounds here over a Danny Myers, who outside of a crazy and versatile 2nd round (which only did enough to force a debatable turn, in light of the sizzling round the Chef had too) and a boatload of personals, just couldn’t bring enough consistent heat to avoid the loss.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Chef Trez – “I keep one .9, one .40, this shit a safe code, then I’ll put a pound to one [2,1] this shit a gate code!”

Danny Myers defeats Young NASA

Recap: Look-alike’s, Danny Myers and Young NASA, go at it for 3 rounds and despite sharing common skin tones as well as loud, aggressive heaters throughout their turns, it’s mostly a one-sided affair with the Bar-God’s vociferous raps, stinging name flips and bodacious punchlines/gun bars easily out-pointing his opponent in both intricacy and potency.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Bitch, you rap just like me, it ain’t a secret fucker, I’m in his face, what else is NASA keeping from us?”

Mackk Myron defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Punching back-to-back with reckless abandon for 3 whole rounds, Mackk Myron scores an impressive victory over self-claimed G.O.A.T. Danny Myers. To be sure, the Cali vet made things competitive throughout, what with a host of fire name flips, stifling punches/wordplay, some nice performance bars/rebuttals and stinging (“Blow his chest open, now I see what they see in you!”) gun lines. But besides bringing just enough heat to make for a debatable 2nd round, in the other rounds there was nothing even a turned-up and confident, but sometimes prone to filler Danny could do to beat back what was an epic display of sublime punches and haymakers in the other rounds, with the “I got the .9, I’m gonna shoot this bitch in the neck [Ill Will: ‘and I got the .12‘], put that away [‘Why?‘], he might give it to Rex!” line in the final round being the coup de grâce.

Verdict: Mackk Myron (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Mackk Myron – “Listen Danny, I would hate to get the kids involved, I’m sick, but this Tech-9, it’s hitting kids and all!”

Danny Myers defeats Chico

Recap: Giving a 1-round shot to rising newcomer Chico, Danny Myers witnesses the fledging rapper impress with a gang of nifty personals and some hard-hitting punchlines. Still, for all of his opponent’s comeuppance, Danny had an answer, using a variety of raucous punches, stifling name flips/personals, a couple of spicy rebuttals, some solid wordplay and a wide load of boastful shiners to spoil any chance of an upset.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I ain’t gotta lay my stats off ya, but I’m a world famous rap author, fans never knew Chico existed like Smack’s partner!”

Danny Myers defeats Stack Almighty

Recap: A dope battle with a bit of a surprise ending as Danny Myers and Stack Almighty face off in this 3-rounder from Bloody Scene Battle League. For the first two rounds anyway, both Myers and Stack came hard with blistering mayhem, hardbody punchlines, boastful shiners, some piercing name flips (moreso from Danny) and in the case of Stack, a couple of spicy rebuttals to split things going into the 3rd round. Then we saw Danny leave Earth, dishing 4 straight fire rebuttals to start off his 3rd before spouting a slew of daunting gun bars, dicey 4-bar set-ups and searing punches to leave his opponent with little chance of overtaking him. Yet with Stack having proven himself to be highly formidable for two rounds, surely he had another round of spitfire bars in the holster ready to take Danny out and win this thing, right? Not so much. As after a solid start (with a couple of feelgood rebuts), Stack tags in one of his Zoo Faculty squad members to take over and for the most part finish his turn. And while the white boy was kinda nice with his punches, we ain’t about to give Stack credit for his man’s hard work, which in turn gives Danny the vic.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I saw 810 Trap, I said damn ain’t no rules here, y’all murder rate is high…made me wanna move here!”

Danny Myers defeats Bankhead

Recap: Boisterous, energetic and punch-heavy battle between Bankhead and Danny Myers stays close throughout with Bankhead’s twisted, set-up friendly and mayhem-laced (“Brought an old ratchet for Myers…Jamie Lee Curtis!”) punches going toe-to-toe with Danny’s more lyrical, visceral and braggadocio raps. But the ever-confident Bar God, despite one too many name flips and rebuttals, still takes the first two rounds here, edging his enigmatic, but elongated (and a bit reach-heavy) opponent with more consistent punches and a couple of more (“I don’t gotta prove I got a better pen or I cook like you, I’m doing this for every nigger that got his bitch snatched by a nigger that look like you!”) haymakers. Give the 3rd round to a still spazzing and more direct Bankhead, a fiery turn that easily beat back a solid overall, but a bit porous and less head-on round by Mr. Myers.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll catch ya at your family dinner bra, in front of ya mama I’ll give you bucks, long hair don’t care, no hair don’t give a fuck!”

DNA defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Peppering his opponent with waves of spicy punchlines mixed in with some stellar wordplay and fiery schemes, while for the first two rounds, staying away from the usual assortment of personals (he’d get to them in the 3rd round) we see against Danny Myers, DNA beats back a hit or miss opponent who too often went for lackluster personals and easy name flips then his winning forte of consistently substantive boasts/mayhem/punches, rich storytelling and otherworldly karma. A fly rebuttal game and some fierce punches in the 3rd round helped Danny ring up enough heat to equal the potency from DNA’s more personal-driven turn, land a draw and avoid getting 30’d.

Verdict: DNA (W) 2-1

Favorite line: DNA – “There’s no way you can split my movement, I let the .8 spray, if not, it’s the fifth I’m using, I’ll have Danny see the tre way [Treyway] more than 69 stupid!”

Danny Myers defeats QP

Recap: When he wasn’t often hilariously mocking his opponent’s catchphrase/moniker (“Bar God!”), for the first couple of rounds during this matchup versus set-up crazy, rapidly (“You usin’ an old system, them played out schemes, you gon’ be sorry nigga, now the fuck you birthed the S.O.N.S. [sons] and still end up on Maury nigga?!?”) punching and rebuttal-heavy Danny Myers, QP keeps up with his fellow West-coast vet’s fiery punches and gritty punchlines with his own series of crafty (“Thinking like a caveman, my first thought was fire!”) wordplay and distinctively witty barbs. But as is sometimes the case, QP’s penchant for a lack of effort during battles appears once again, even during a solid turn in the deciding 3rd round that while lit with some dope punches still seemed more performance bent than prepped to win. And with Myers work ethic never coming into question, a winning 3rd round drenched with a litany of hitting braggadocios lines, gripping name flips, stinging freestyles and gripping personals, handily gives Danny the 21.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I am human fentanyl, I obliterate rappers, scientists taught me that quantum physics manipulates matters!”

Danny Myers defeats King Corleone

Recap: Never at a lack of confidence, the self-proclaimed ‘Bar God’ Danny Myers uses colloquial heaters, some feelgood rebuttals, fiery punchlines and salacious personals to impressively take out the overall solid, sometimes abstract and oft-gruff stylings of King Corleone in this 3-rounder from Live From The Block.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll approach him, get animated and I’ll let the colt spin, turn ya kids into a pool of blood and see if he Adult Swim!”

Pat Stay defeats Danny Myers

Recap: “I’m a man of many hats and you’re just Sway on the Morning!” No discredit at all to Danny Myers who was excellent here, raining down some superb (“One .80 [180] split your circle in half, stay out my radius!”) punchlines, fierce wordplay and aggressive haymakers throughout his 3 rounds. But that aforementioned bar by Pat Stay, a dope metaphor when it comes to battlers displaying versatility with their bars versus being more one-dimensional, sums up why Pat’s 2nd round–a searing ode to breaking down n opponent’s style, getting mean with the personals, showcasing crazy comedic wit, dishing raucous crowd-pleasers and an ability to punch with the best of ’em–gets him the win after taking the 1st, before a still turned-up Danny salvaged the 3rd.

Verdict: Pat Stay (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Pat Stay – “Let ’em know, we could’ve did this battle awhile before, but you can’t cross the border cuz’ you don’t pay your child support, poor kids, don’t when they’re gonna eat next, because daddy robbed all their piggy banks and gave it to T-Rex!”

Danny Myers defeats J.U.S.

Recap: Danny Myers and fellow West-coast battler J.U.S. meet up for a competitive 1-rounder on the Skytier Northwest stage. And while the confident J.U.S. dished a series of consistently flexing punchlines/wordplay, it’s a more versatile, just as fiery and lit-with-the-personals Myers who gets the edge here.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Stuey got on Smack and I saw that it hurt ya, he moved forward while you stayed still…Newton proved his own law of inertia!”

Danny Myers defeats Jose Cuervo

Recap: Even the repeated shots at his opponent’s girl never gets old as a highly on-point Danny Myers uses a host of fiery punchlines, astute name flips, raucous gun bars and boastful/visceral darts to take this 3-round battle from Iron Mouth Battles over a solid overall, but too hit-n-miss (esp. with the wordplay as opposed to his punches) Jose Cuervo.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers –  “In the back of my mind, I always wanted to fuck with pussy…like a 3rd cousin!”

Danny Myers defeats KH

Recap: In this 1-rounder from the 4th Annual Young Bizill BarFest, Danny Myers faces off against KH and uses a boatload of spirited name flips, eccentric punchlines, boastful shiners and some witty personals to beat a solid, but straightforward/preachy and much less intricate effort from his opponent.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Your bar game weak as hell, it was never heavy, all that light work fuck with my brain like epilepsy!”

Danny Myers defeats Bobby Lee

Recap: Against a solid and personals-driven (face it, Danny will probably never hear the end of giving $25K to Rex) Bobby Lee, an aggressive Danny Myers dishes a resounding fleet of piercing punchlines, boastful shiners, rigorous 4-bar set-ups/storytelling bars, some stifling personals of his own and fierce struggle bars/name flips to get the win in this 1-round battle from Bizill Bar Fest.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll spot ya, I’ll run up on him and the K will spray, the other strap got an extension like he can’t pay today!”

Danny Myers defeats Saint Mic

Recap: Utilizing frenzied name flips, rigid O.G. themes, fierce punchlines and some random wit, for two rounds Danny Myers goes ham with it enough to beat back a (the ‘Clayton Bigsby line in round 2 was fire!) strong, but not quite as sturdy Saint Mic. A pretty even 3rd round was only separated by Saint Mic struggling with his a flow a bit, thus handing Danny the 30.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I know this bitch ain’t fighting, but I still keep the rubber on the handle so the grip stay tight, face shot at close range, his momma don’t call him by his rap name, but she gonna say ‘This ain’t Mic!'”

Danny Myers defeats Ron Compton

Recap: Some crisp God/religious-angles and aggressive/solid wordplay here and there provides Ron Compton with enough juice to take round 2 here against Danny Myers. But a pretty medieval and more importantly condensed Myers, bent on boastful shiners, raucous punchlines and pent-up mayhem, was able to dish enough seismic heat to take the opening and final rounds for the win.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Do you believe in a Parallel universe? I do, it’s insane patna, an OG said, ‘I can live life by diggin’ for jewels’, then he was killed by a grave robber!”

K-Shine defeats Danny Myers

Recap: A punch-fest filled with a lot of history and brimming tension, K-Shine and Danny Myers is certainly worth the look. As for who won? The feeling here is Shine and that’s despite a pretty epic (“I’m better with the blade ‘cuz I cant miss, I get up close, give him 5 strikes on the side, now he’s K Swiss!”) 3rd round from Myers. However, before the final round, Shine’s ability to combine wit, fierce (“All that money you gave Rex, nigga, you could’ve been a sponsor for NOME!”) personals and heated punches with hardly any filler did a lot of damage to a less versatile, less adjoined and more prone to pedestrian bars (esp. when he attempted to get personal) that didn’t always match his aggression in Myers. Indeed, Shine’s verbal repertoire, stirred with just enough set-up rich dishes, gets him the 1st and 2nd rounds here.

Verdict: K-Shine (W) 2-1

Favorite line: K-Shine – “Your next birthday, I ain’t gonna slide up like a dancer, I crept through, you 37, we gonna make .38…special!”

Danny Myers defeats Coffee Brown

Recap: In a battle lit with hard-hitting personals and plenty of well-meaning mayhem, a righteous, more condensed, consistently nice, punchline-spazzing and dirty drawers spouting Danny Myers puts the brakes on Coffee Brown’s often cold, but unsteady polemic’s with his own series of visceral heat and earn the 30.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I know it’s foul, but you the biggest ho around, your baby was chewing on a condom in the ultrasound!”

Glueazy defeats Danny Myers

Recap: With like a week’s notice Glueazy more than impresses, dishing a versatile barrage of fierce punches, fire personals, stinging gun bars and some real talk shit that more than made their point. Indeed, with the always intense, punch-heavy and in this case, even witty at times Danny Myers delivering yet another solid performance, it would take a superb, haymaker-drenched turn from Glu to take the 1st round, before a turned-up (after a faltering and inconsistent 2nd), condensed, back to basics and overall more potent Glu took the deciding 3rd for the win in what overall was a dope and competitive battle.

Verdict: Glueazy (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Glueazy – “Glu official, group of pistols, I’ll let 2 burn on you. Chris Unbias, fuck with the kid the whole group turn on you!”

Steams defeats Danny Myers

Recap: A testament to the idea that URL would do better to really promote their respective PG classes, Steams vs Danny Myers (who both got their starts on Smack in 2015) definitely goes down as one of the best battles of 2017. The ever-crafty, clearly motivated and flow-crisp Steams turned in a sublime performance for 3 straight rounds with spicy punchline after punchline when he wasn’t spouting some sizzling wordplay, nasty scheems, persistent heat with the (“Or I’m at your door, puttin’ in pain (Payne) wit’ the Roscoe, it’s long, and the front of it drip: it’s a snot-nose!”) gun bars and fierce name flips/personals. While an always game Danny supplied a gang of aggressive West-coast bangers, witty (“Miss me with all the hi-jinks!, nigga, you 30, and best friends wit’ a nigga who can’t even buy drinks!”) personals, piercing name flips of his own and plenty of ringing mayhem. Each round was close, but after a debatable 1st, we have the slightly more consistent and punch-heavy Steams edging both of the latter two rounds for the win.

Verdict: Steams (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Steams – “Let me stop, ’cause I can’t understand the position this tranny’s under, with eight rugrats, this nigga has got to be scared of rubbers, the Ol’ Dirty Bastard, who likes it ‘Raw’, if a bitch fuck him, then I’m scared to touch her [Why?!], ‘cuz that pussy gotta be a Lethal Weapon even if Danny glove her [Glover]!”

Danny Myers defeats Geechi Gotti

Recap: Almost had him. On his way to an impressive win over the (“I don’t gangbang, just thought I’d remind him nigga, the only Nutty block I know is a condom, nigga!”) fiercely eccentric Bar God that is Danny Myers, Compton’s Geechi Gotti’s barrage of spitfire (“See, I don’t even know why we here, this matchup kinda odd, but I get it, since I killed a Saynt [saint] I gotta talk to God!”) wordplay/gun bars and urban (“Real Compton nigga, my first ‘lik I robbed the corn man!”) street dynamics had him on the way to victory, until he fell victim to a slip-up towards the end as well as some more pedestrian bars that didn’t quite meet the straight heat he was spitting throughout most of his round. Still a fire one-round battle nonetheless that a more consistent and a little more versatile Myers was fortunate enough to edge out.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line:  Danny Myers – “I’m not playing, the glock spraying until you stop stop standing, they told me to get Gotti and Gotti got got…Goddamhim!”

Danny Myers defeats Young Kannon

Recap: In this matchup of Chicago versus the West-coast, Danny Myers does prove to be ‘Too much!” for Young Kannon, consistently dishing righteous (“I don’t know what in the fuck made you think you could see my nigga, a shot through a Chicago knee, is really the PG killer!”) metaphorical wordplay, fiery rebuttals, potent (“You ain’t worth a punch, I got something special for you, I’ll backhand you so hard, cops can use the echo for proof!”) bars, steady angles (“Tupac whupped Joe Torry ass, if y’all seen Poetic Justice then you’ll know how we do Chicago on the West coast!”; “Small errors in this city and your soul get lift, you won’t make it to your 60s, you better watch who you Rolling with!”) and even political briefings to beat what was an overall (“I’m a universal charger, I got a plug for everything!”) solid (but filler-prone, esp. in rounds 1 and 2) turn from the ever (“The only thing worse than your performance is your music!”) reliable YK. Indeed, still showing plenty of heart going into the 3rd round, it’s Kannon’s hard (“Back shot…have him walking like he 9 months pregnant!”) punches and a roundhouse of hitting (“You told Bigg K ‘my crew is like nigga’s in Italian suits, we got mob ties’, you a bitch trying to fit in with the killers, you the Mob Wives!”) personals that edges the 3rd after what looked to be an insurmountable (“I’ll let the .4 ring on his face like brass knuckles!”) turn from Myers.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll come to the South side, aim at your throat and let the mill spark twice, them gonna be the ugliest shots in Chicago since Bill Cartwright!”

Gjonaj defeats Danny Myers

Recap: In what was a rousing and very close 3-rounder from KOTD, Gjonaj uses some filthy wordplay, intensely dramatic but also shrewd schemes and some fiery personals/punchlines/4-bar set-ups to beat back a Danny Myers who while providing another cold display of stinging punches and wild imagery with the mayhem, couldn’t quite keep up with his opponent’s more condensed efficiency in rounds 1 and 3.

Verdict: Gjonaj (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Gjonaj – “You’re Morgan Freeman, you narrate a story that is not yours!”

Danny Myers defeats B. Dot

Recap: From LABattleGroundz, a fire and competitive battle between B. Dot and Danny Myers that sees Dot’s far-reaching ‘woke’-isms, prophetic sermonizing, oft-spicy (“Don’t be talking about guns, you got too many daughters and sons to be pulling out!”) punches/wordplay and gritty personals get plenty of shine throughout the match, in fact, for 3 rounds a testament to his rising fame in the game. But for all of Dot’s righteous preaching, he hurts himself a bit with elongated rounds (esp. the 1st) which gave way to more commonplace riffs as well as long spiels to get to the punch. Providing a fiery counterbalance to his opponent’s pontification’s would just come naturally for Myers tho, the West-coast vet meeting Dot’s aggressive checks and balances with his own testimonies on real street life drama, potent (“I ain’t gon’ lie, that the shit you be talking sound good, you be preaching Dot, but I brainstormed under my mental umbrella, you be reaching, Dot!”) name flips, steely personals, lofty punchlines/gun bars and plenty of ringing mayhem, almost all of which brought with it a gang of haymakers. And while Dot was near the task in providing spitfire moments, an almost flawless )and condensed) turn from Danny in both the 1st and 3rd round (call the 2nd round debatable) gives the ‘Bar God’ the win.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Stop it, I don’t feel your skill’s a threat, I’ll give Creflo Dollar 65 from the mil’ then jet!”

Danny Myers defeats Swave Sevah

Recap: Assisted by a couple of Swave Sevah slip-ups in the 1st round as well as Swave getting off to an extremely slow start in the 2nd, Danny Myers’ stringent punch game combined with some witty old jokes, rampant mayhem and flexing gun bars manage to take the first two rounds of this judged battle from RBE. Swave’s 3rd, a near classic with its righteous takedowns of Danny’s narcissistic “King of Harlem’ catchphrase was a delight to see, but it still wasn’t enough to get him the win….here anyway.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’ll grab the semi from the shoulder holster, then I bust 8, then I’ll sneak the arm over the shoulder like a first date!”

Charlie Clips defeats Danny Myers

Recap: Angling his opponent with utter persistence, making use of some fire schemes and somehow not losing any ground for the usage of some recycled bars thanks to the hit-n-miss/redundant mayhem brought to you from Danny Myers, after a debatable 1st round, the ever witty Charlie Clips musters just enough variables to his shrewd punches/hitting personals to take rounds 2 and 3 and get the win in this 3-rounder from Black Ice Cartel.

Verdict: Charlie Clips (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Charlie Clips – “See, Rex lied about getting locked up and you knew it, and I got a question, why D ain’t strike him?, he made you shit when he took your money…I woulda been in T cell fighting!”
