Dre Dennis defeats Nunn Nunn

Recap: If there’s one certain thing about Dre Deniis, it’s that no one can ever dispute his energy. Combine that fact with a consistent flow of rich storytelling bars, slick (“Your bm slim, but she always feeding me damn, no Robert Townsend [but] that ho love the Meteor Man [meatier man]”) wordplay and nice (“My vision isn’t great and…but ‘cuz of these bars you can’t touch who’s behind these glasses like prison visitation”) anecdotes and it’s a spirited win over sometimes crazy (“Your bitch too fast, tell her I need a head start”; “Fuck it, want some more bra/ catch this Bigg K, ill Mac, Shotty Horror see? you might say, ‘white boy shit, but it ain’t like mines, I raise a blade, spray some blades, that’s how you cut those white lines!”) nice, but too often spotty Nunn Nunn in this battle from the Quiet Room.

Verdict: Dre Dennis (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Dre Dennis – “You a good worker?, well on the block let me find out, white boy when I stand on ya corner it ain’t a time out!”

Dre Dennis defeats Chess

Recap: Sometimes when you set the bar so high, a less than stellar performance can be seen as taking your art for granted, which in turn can provide an opponent with a window to win. Such is the case here as Chess, tho he certainly had his moments of executing some hot bars, fails to perform as consistently nice as you’re used to. Too bad as he gets schooled by a literal brickhouse in Dre Dennis, who spazzes on the little guy with enough elite schemes, haymakers, punchlines and self-deprecating (“I ain’t got one, so I know you ain’t coming for my neck nigga!”) rhymes to make your mouth water. Perhaps a hard ‘L’ to digest, but a good student will learn from this one.

Verdict: Dre Dennis (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Chess – “Chess, what’s your next move? I’ll tie his fat ass up and watch him starve in front of fresh food”

Dre Dennis defeats Ray Stizzy

Recap: Thank goodness for Dre Dennis, as his ability to dish way more consistent punches and righteous (“If we went to school together, I would’ve took your lunch money, and stuffed him in a trash can like ‘You know I’m fat bitch, don’t run from me!”) bully bars, gives him the fortitude to survive an elongated round of mostly filler and standard bars from an aggressive Ray Stizzy. What with host Uno Lavos dick-riding even Stizzy’s most routine bars, that kind of gassing still didn’t take away from an easy win for Dennis.

Verdict: Dre Dennis (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Dre Dennis – “Every time I see him I’ll give him a buck like little dude across the street!”

A-Ssassin defeats Dre Dennis

Recap: Credit to Dre Dennis who apparently took this battle at the last minute and despite a couple of slip-ups, still impressed with atypical rambunctious (“Conclusion, I got a body before the intro, I came to do this esai [essay] wrong!”; “Now I’m strapped up in New York like Ray Felton!”) bars that melded well with rich performance lines. Still, a better prepared and steady confident A-Ssassin uses some fledging wordplay, nice (“Wanna scrap?, yet we can go out side like old-school hats!”) angles/punchlines and surefire (“…run up on Clips with these clips just to steal his rhymebook, that’s what I call going scheme for schemes”) schemes to hold on for the win in this one-rounder from the Trap House.

Verdict: A-Ssassin (W) 1-0

Favorite line: A-Ssassin – “This battle rap is like crack to the fans, tell the top tiers this how you treat your feens better…in the fastest way, bar after bar after bar after bar like alcoholics on St. Patrick’s Day!”

YaBoyClip defeats Dre Dennis

Recap: Bar-for-bar it’s pretty even in this 3-rounder between (“Just know this Mister will Son like Dennis the Menace!”) YaBoyClip and (“I am Legend, I Will Smith, all I got is my dogs!”) Dre Dennis. But Clip’s avalanche of fiery schemes along with a heavy bout Earl-itis by Dre Dennis throughout the battle makes the difference and gives YaBoyClip the 3-0 on the road.

Verdict: YaBoyClip (W) 3-0

Favorite line: YaBoyClip – “But you see that I’m Blind Fury to the fact that it seems absurd, sign language how my hands can exchange with words!”

Show Off defeats Dre Dennis

Recap: Despite a couple of early skip-ups, Dre Dennis does show that he has some bars, but even without the fumbles no way he beats Show Off’s triple latte of dope schemes, fiery punchlines and personals here.

Verdict: Show Off (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Show Off – “Fat nigga, lift pounds off that waist, that’s a diet plan, no y’all ain’t catch it that’s my lingo, if I lift pounds off the waist and he die, it’s planned”

J-Krooger defeats Dre Dennis

Recap: Way more intricate and shrewd with the punchlines, boasts and mayhem, but also helped by a Dre Dennis who had one too many random shots at his opponent’s girl when he wasn’t resorting to redundant gun bars and schemes, outside of a debatable 2nd round, J-Krooger elicits more than enough consistent heat to take this fiery 3-rounder from Frontline Battle League.

Verdict: J-Krooger (W) 2-1

Favorite line: J-Krooger – “You said I couldn’t win here, well today we gonna see, Dre got it backwards, you going in the ER, D!”
