Recap: From Dark Horse Battle League, a close and competitive 3-rounder (with an added round 1 shoulder bump from Midas that’d make Ace Amin proud) between JC and Georgia battle rapper Midas features plenty of death-gripping bars, brash punches and slick wordplay from both sides. Add to the mix a bunch of fly name flips from JC as well as witty (“You really fucked me up that battle, that nigga Surf beat ya ass so bad they locked him up right after!”) personals from Midas and for the latter anyway, it’s an impressive performance that should warrant some plates from the big leagues. Nonetheless, after a debatable round 1, thanks in part to Midas dishing some pedestrian bars and struggling a bit at times with his flow, it’s the more cohesive, set-up crazy and slightly more haymaker-lit JC who edges rounds 2 and 3 for the win.
Verdict: JC (W) 2-1
Favorite line: JC – “Y’all wanna know why nigga’s like you attract danger?, ya get ahead and get outta line…like the Black Ranger!”
