No Bias. No Narratives.
Recap: Mean set-ups/punchlines, stifling performance bars, piercing personals and a variety of head-ringing name flips, it’s all there as Fonz handily beats back a solid and gritty at times Grandaddy Purp in this 1-rounder from Ball Hogg Ent.
Verdict: Fonz (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Fonz – “But if you think that fame done went to my head then bitch chance it, and they gonna see me sit a Purp [perp] down like Chris Hansen!”
Recap: In this 1-rounder from Ball Hogg Ent., the often loud and raucous raps from Grandaddy Purp do enough to intimidate, but battle-wise aren’t enough to beat back a consistently gun bar-heavy plus punch and wordplay-lit Aye Verb.
Verdict: Aye Verb (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Aye Verb – “I’m in your city, acting reckless, with a weapon, all breathless, two open rams, which one of you nigga’s need affection?!”
Recap: Plenty of loud, aggressive heaters/punches by Grandaddy Purp make for a competitive battle. But too many pedestrian bars from Purp along with a sizzling mix of stinging wit, spitfire punchlines and fierce name flips gets a more consistent and potent B. Magic the sweep.
Verdict: B. Magic (W) 3-0
Favorite line: B. Magic – “I fear none, I come for your damn wig, nighttime, ducked off with a mask and a damn cig, then what’s in the dark come to light like Aunt Viv!”
Recap: Good shit here as Grandaddy Purp and T-Top go at it heavy-handed during a one-rounder in Purp’s hometown of Muncie, IN. Purp stood his ground with consistently nice street (“Nigga, your daddy passed you down jeans, my daddy passed me down cargo!”) semantics, but Top did him better with a variety of name flips, storytelling bars, personals and rich (“All my coke come in blocks, boy we need blenders, tree splitters, big-ass scales that hold three niggers”) trap talk that only those who’ve lived that life could possibly understand.
Verdict: T-Top (W) 1-0
Favorite line: T-Top – “For them birds I’m pulling that Hazel, long nose and my back-up will give you the 30, that’s Morse Code”
Recap: Solid turn by (“Don’t talk that trap shit to me neither, I done sold all kind of things, nigga we went through more bowls than one of your favorite college teams!”) Grandaddy Purp gets over overrun by a more (“I heard you fuck with young bitches, so don’t start with me, you famous for making kids cum [come]…Walt Disney!”) diverse and systematically nice Chef Trez in this one-rounder from Ball Hogg Battle League.
Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Chef Trez – “I’ll give you a thousand dollars, then kill you, when I blam, fam in hell, Ninja Turtle shit…you’ll get a Bandana [bam then] shell!”
