Saint Mic defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Dope Born Legacy NW matchup between Saint Mic and Dre Vishiss sees the latter keep it close and competitive with a variety of spicy punchlines, well-lit mayhem, fiery gang talk and hitting name flips/struggle bars. Yet, while he did get edged in the second round, with a consistent display of potent/intricate wordplay throughout the battle to go along with some witty personals, banging braggadocios darts and fierce setups/punches, it’s the slightly more haymaker-lit Saint Mic who takes rounds 1 and 3 for the win.

Verdict: Saint Mic (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Saint Mic – “Bitch, I’ve had Bud in the crib since a kid…I’m Rudy Huxtable!”

Fettuccine20 defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Consistently fire with the (“I came from the trenches, we was a bunch of little grimy son-of-a-bitches, [but] Dre ain’t never ‘Set It Off’, he just handed the gun’s to the bitches!”) wordplay. spouting fierce gun bars throughout and mixing in some sporadic wit, Fettuccine20 gets the win by taking the first couple of rounds here against a Dre Vishiss, who was solid throughout (esp. when he was kicking that real [“Bitch nigga, if this was a scene outta ‘Boyz in Da Hood’, you’d be ready to let Trey out the car, bitch nigga, before I even seen that shit I was a kid letting the .3 out the car…really living that life for you rap nigga’s to make it a bar!”] shit in a spitfire 3rd), but suffered from too much filler and a slow start to his 1st to have any chance of withstanding his opponent’s early heat.

Verdict: Fettuccine20 (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Fettuccine20 -“No big brothers, I had to fight for mine when I was hitting the block, I played basketball and baseball, till I start pitching the rock!”

Geechi Gotti defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: A close, competitive and hardbody battle takes an emotional U-turn when before the deciding 3rd round, (“Nigga, my last enemy’s families had to do car washes and that still only bought them the Hertz!”) Dre Vishiss brings his mom’s on stage and uses his round to salute her recovery from cancer as well as dish on real life personals struggles. All well and good and then some. But with a win on the line, (“It’s tragic when half the cig hanging out his mouth like a hood mechanic!”) Geechi Gotti puts aside the sentiment and does what he came to do: continue kicking that real street shit mixed with fiery punchlines, rich metaphors and gritty wordplay. In other words, more than enough heat to take the round and get the win.

Verdict: Geechi Gotti (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Geechi Gotti – “I might just pop this bitch, I keep a trey, .80 take her wig off like granny before she got to bed!”

Young Kannon defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Plenty of hot bars dished from both Young Kannon and Dre Vishiss adds up to a fiery one-round matchup from West Coast Elites. However, a more resilient with the punchlines and less-reaching YK does more than enough to get fitted the crown at the end.

Verdict: Young Kannon (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Young Kannon – “The toaster with me, load and empty, kill or wheelchair him, turn a Grape Street into a Rolling 60!”

Stuey Newton defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Stuey Newton uses stifling gun bars, flexing (“Tell ya folks, if you flex, you next, you’ll get back to back crosses…UTech, two-step!”) punchlines and dope name flips to edge the first two rounds and survive what was a crazy (“So you named yourself after a revolutionary black activist, you gotta be joking, so I get to blacking with these pounds in the air like a rally in motion!”) 3rd round from slick/gun bar aficionado Dre Vishiss in this West-coast PG battle.

Verdict: Stuey Newton (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Stuey Newton – “But the feeling from killing is no longer thrilling, the rubber grip make around get a kick out it!”

Cadalack Ron defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Lyrically taking advantage of the ‘anything goes’ underlining of battle rap, Cadalack Ron (R.I.P.) goes there time and time again with racist bars on black people (women in particular) when he wasn’t spitting borderline xenophobic, but oft-witty personals and radical punchlines that would make your average redneck proud. Most of the crowd seemed to get it tho and Ron’s opponent, a solid, but slip-up prone Dre Vishiss (who ended up cutting his round short) seemed to take it all in stride. Notwithstanding a few dry spots from Ron, he gets the edge in thsi 1-rounder here for a tighter, longer and more consistent flow.

Verdict: Cadalack Ron (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Cadalack Ron – “I never had a baby mama that wasn’t a looker and I never fucked a black chick [female in crowd: ‘Couldn’t handle it’] that wasn’t a hooker!”

Dre Vishiss defeats Aktive

Recap: Granted, every now and again you’ll see members of battle rap crews battle against each other. But real-life homies and clique members? Now that’s a rare sight. Yet, that’s what you get here as West-coast Grape St. crew spitters Aktive and Dre Vishiss go at it in this 1-rounder from AHAT. And while, as expected, there was very little on the personal side from each battler, a steady assortment of nice name flips (esp. from Dre), fierce gun/bully bars, gritty punchlines and utter mayhem was dished out from dudes. A solid battle all around, a more consistent with the punches and condensed Vishiss gets the edge here.

Verdict: Dre Vishiss (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Dre Vishiss -“Since you a giant, you’ll get your bean stalked, I’ll squeeze and capture the moment…it’s like s screenshot!”

Kee Kasino defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: An aggressive and confident Kee Kasino uses steely name flips, gritty street chatter and some wicked/witty punchlines to take the first two rounds over a mostly pedestrian Dre Vishiss, before Vishiss steps it up and shows enough versatility to salvage the final round and avoid getting 30’d.

Verdict: Kee Kasino (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Kee Kasino – “You think that you could intimidate me boy?, you must be crazy boy, you got that same frame like Snoop and that wife-beater on Baby Boy!”

Dre Vishiss defeats Bobby Lee Swagger

Recap: Dope 1-rounder from AHAT between Bobby Lee Swagger and Dre Vishiss sees Swagger repeatedly score aplenty with some wicked and versatile punches during his turn to force the action and make him hard to beat. However, not to be outdone, a turned-up and slightly more consistent Vishiss uses some spitfire set-ups, gritty gun bars, fire name flips and lucid braggadocio lines to edge the round and earn the win.

Verdict: Dre Vishiss (W) 1-0

Favorite line:  Dre Vishiss – “This Krack [crack] City, we already seen what the shit did to you and Whitney, Bobby!”

Danny Myers defeats Dre Vishiss

Recap: Even against a sublime showing from a slick-taking and potent Dre Vishisss, the forever-turned-up stylings of Danny Myers prove to be a little too much as the Bar-God’s variety of salacious punchlines and fiery wordplay are enough to take a deciding 3rd round in this dope 3-rounder from AHAT.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “Since you talk shit, that small toaster rise, it blows your funny bone to the left of you, all jokes aside!”

Dre Vishiss defeats Jay Scott

Recap: Here we witness some moments here and there from the witty and braggadocio (“There’s two legends from the West-coast right? Me and Tupac!”) punches of Jay Scott. But in this West-coast AHAT Battle, Dre Vishiss’ overall wordplay, sport-themed darts and salacious punchlines/personals edges each round for the win.

Verdict: Dre Vishiss (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Dre Vishiss – “Now this nigga playing hard, but turn fraud when he got issues, knowing that he extra soft, we all know Scot’s tissue!”
