Moon defeats Mr. Mills

by

Recap: Nice 1-rounder from RBE’s Social Distance battle’s between Mr. Mills and Moon goes the ‘Old Man with the Cold Hands’ way as Mills’ standard name flips and ringing mayhem, while spicy throughout his turn, still didn’t have enough bite to beat back his opponent’s more versatile lines, piercing punchlines, righteous heat and visceral screeds.

Verdict: Moon (W) 1-0

by

Gwitty defeats Moon

by

Recap: Both having had beef’s with Drugz alone makes for a compelling battle, but personals aside, in this 1-rounder from Kill Switch Battle League, it’s Gwitty’s potent name flips, fiery punchlines and righteous mayhem along with a solid, O.G.-bent turn by Moon being cut short, gives Paper the win.

Verdict: Gwitty (W) 1-0

Ish Mulah defeats Moon

by

Verdict: Ish Mulah (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Ish Mulah – “Respect the goon, think I’m a allow you to show your ass?, never Moon!”

Squeako defeats Moon

by

Recap: The final score of this battle might tell a different story, but with Moon’s visceral street narratives, gritty O.G. talk and stunted boasts scoring left and right (outside of a flow-challenged 2nd round that he had to cut short) the Richmond, VA, vet made his opponent for it. And that Squeako did, using his distinct Northeastern drawl to dish a gang of fiery punchlines, hard/witty rebuts for Moon’s more rugged pontifications, gripping struggle bars and piercing personals to take each round and get the win in this URL Banned Legacy battle.

Verdict: Squeako (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Squeako – “Nigga I heard how old you was, laughed so hard, bitch I was about to cry, well you turned 44 last month…bitch you about to die!”

Moon defeats Rolla

by

Recap: Fire battle between Moon and Rolla sees the latter kick that real (“You keep telling me about your robbing spree, I need to hear a story about you being scarred for that!”) shit, segueing between gritty, urban polemics and talking to his opponent in an old-school manner that only a fellow real G could relate to. However, for all of Rolla’s hysterics, Moon more than met the challenge, using witty personals, fire storytelling bars, his own stamped gunplay and fierce (“Nigga’s thinking there’s something so special about ’em…well, so do their mother’s!”) punchlines to garner rounds 1 along with 2, for the well-earned win.

Verdict: Moon (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Moon – “Nigga, my goons is psycho, your psycho is menstrual!”

Young X defeats Moon

by

Recap: Enthralling battle between Young X and Moon sees X run the gamut on trap talk, fiery (“Fuck outta here, you living in teh past my bro, don’t nobody help the old people with they bags no more!”) wit, lofty (“Now he punch drunk, look like he been drinking moonshine, call me lunar eclipse, way I come up and fuck up Moon shine!”) performance bars and frenzied name flips to take rounds 1 and 3 for the win over an opponent who while dropping a load of old-school (“They be like ‘O.G., how should I play the cards [opens hands up] that life dealt me?’, I say, first of all little nigga, stop showing them your whole hand!”) gems, dope schemes and steely (“They don’t know I’m about to be the game changer, Smack went and got the old gun out the stash, tired of putting bodies on the same banga!”) O.G. talk throughout the battle, couldn’t keep up with X’s explosive first (despite a fire turn himself) and thanks in part to a slow start and a little too much filler, got beat back in the deciding 3rd.

Verdict: Young X (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Young X – “And don’t be coming with that 60s shit, we don’t understand the lingo dog, see you gonna make me catch your old ass coming out the bingo hall!”

Moon defeats Holmzie Da God

by

Recap: Tough one to decide here as Holmzie Da God. delivering a round of spitfire gun lines and fierce (“They trying to think about how I found this bastard, it’s Alaska, I seen moon every day for a month straight!”) punchlines in an incredible 1st to a dope 2nd that featured more of the same (without the predictable ‘old man’ jokes that his opponent predicted he’d have lined up for him) to an albeit pontificating, but hardbody 3rd that showcased the God’s real life struggles, overall did almost everything right to win here. However, for 2 rounds, the O.G. Moon just came one better. After a solid, but flow-challenged 1st, Moon’s gritty street bars, fiending set-ups, bully (“But don’t think ‘cuz you hang around a dentist [Dennis], he’ll be able to pull a gun [gum] out your mouth!”)  lines and witty personals finally caught up to the debonair of his  consistent swag in the both the 2nd round and an even better and more versatile 3rd. In other words, a testament to Moon’s experience in the game and a nice come-from-behind-win in a fire battle that really didn’t deserve a loser.

Verdict: Moon (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Moon – “Nigga, you set our people back 400 years the way Joe did you, nigga you had me thinking P.G. stood for ‘plantation ground’ the way the white boy whipped you!”

Diesel defeats Moon

by

Recap: After dishing a pretty pedestrian 1st round that easily got beat back by a fire, OG-savvy turn by Moon, Diesel steps it up with steady aggression, backed by fiery name flips, some nice schemes and roundhouse punchlines to take rounds 2 and 3 for the win over a still solid, but not as potent opponent in this PG match from Smack/URL.

Verdict: Diesel (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Diesel – “I’ll have Moon staring at the .50 like his birthday coming!”

E Hart defeats Moon

by

Recap: The O.G. Moon and the O.G. E Hart hook up for this intergender, one-round matchup on the Bring Ya Barz Battle League stage. Moon, after proclaiming at the start that he’d be challenging his opponent’s G-status, undoubtedly came fierce with a barrage of ill (“I put nigga’s in the ground, ask the last asshole, only thing is, you’d have to dig him up to ask the question, ‘cuz when the gun’s in my hand, it sings like a white boy band, but I pointed it at more then One Direction!”) street chatter that validated his resume. However, Moon’s propensity to go a little overkill on Hart’s looks would end up hurting him a bit as a slow-to-start-but-eventually-turned-up Hart steady dalliances of potent (“They ask if Hart can spit with these nigga’s, who’s a wrestling fan?, check my record, E C W’s, Yes I can!”) wordplay, lofty name flips and gritty street ethos not only got the crowd hype, but more importantly, edged Hart the win.

Verdict: E Hart (W) 1-0

Favorite line: E Hart – “Bitches knwo what really the deal, why he sleep?, you was thinking that E light, I’m Elite!”

Moon defeats O-mega

by

Recap: If you can pardon all the gassing, petty crowd interruptions and mobile phone distractions, Moon versus O-mega, a battle between a couple of older vets is a worth see, what with its bent on old-school dynamics, ill personals, fire punchlines and rigid gun bars. A Moon rebuttal edges him a close round one, before O-mega comes back with more haymakers in a turned-up round 2 to split things going into the final round. It’s a solid turn for both battlers in the 3rd with more of their braggadocio street talk along with heated punches, but a more consistent and versatile Moon gets this one.

Verdict: Moon (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Moon – “You trying to get aggressive with me, nigga that’s a foul that’s flagrant, you rather try to set up a trap house across the street from the home of an FBI agent!”

Moon defeats Jay Dash

by

Recap: Here against fellow battle vet Jay Dash, Moon flexes with that raw street shit and braggadocio lines that enhances his rep as a battle-tested, old hand in and outside the ring. That said, altogether, Moon’s urban palette is more than enough to take rounds 1 and 2, before a slip-up costs him a close 3rd.

Verdict: Moon (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Moon – “Nigga, I’ll give you that VIP treatment, ‘cuz you’ll be the first nigga to get a shit at the club!”

Jakkboy Maine defeats Moon

by

Recap: A hot 3rd round by Moon, who along with his wily OG talk and braggadocio bars went personal to edge the round. But by then it was too late as Jakkboy Maine’s more graphic punchlines, potent schemes and fire set-ups got him the first couple of rounds for the win.

Verdict: Jakkboy Maine (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Jakkboy Maine – “Yeah, I listen to my elder’s advice, but not because he always right, but because he got more experience at being wrong!”

Moon defeats Gooch

by

Recap: Excuse the loud and aggressive, but mostly basic raps from Gooch as this one is all Moon. Whether delivering stifling personals (esp. in the 3rd) or dishing on raw, authentic street shit or spitting fire schemes or spouting spine-tingling gun lines, an all-business-mode and consistent Moon puts it all together for 3 rounds to take this one going away.

Verdict: Moon (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Moon – “I ain’t gotta kill you, I could cock back the pistol, hand it to you and let you do that yourself!”

Serius Jones defeats Moonface

by

Recap: Jersey vs. Jersey sees longtime vet Moonface give Serius Jones a run for the money in this epic Fight Klub battle. Jones has some lapses throughout the battle, but is able to pull it out in overtime with wicked freestyles/bars on Moonface’s Montell Jordan lookalike homie and his opponent only buying out the bar “when he go to the gay club”.

Verdict: Serius Jones (W) OT

Favorite line: Serius Jones – “You was an ugly baby, so your mom’s used to ignore you!”
