Anderson Burrus defeats Arsonal

by

Recap: In this 3-rounder from URL, a competitive Arsonal brings the disrespect back and seeing as he was facing a white boy in Anderson Burrus…a bunch of racist quotables too to go along with a pretty solid bunch of gritty punchlines, jokey jokes and biastful barbs. But unfazed by his opponent’s rancor, part-time cameraman Burrus flexes throughout the biut, while utlizing a steady barrage of witty/mocking personals, wily Caucausian colloquialisms, hard-hitting punches, witty darts and even some highly disrespectful burners of his own to edge each round and earn the 30.

Verdict: Anderson Burrus (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Anderson Burrus – “It’s a struggle meal Ars, one Cracker and a Grape!”

Chef Trez defeats Ooops

by

Recap: Haven’t seen Ooops battle in a while, but here on Barz Ova Bullshhh, the veteran St. Louis battler brings it for 3 rounds against Chef Trez. And it’s a goodie as Ooops’ trademark of righteous darts, hard-hitting storytelling/personals and piercing punches/name flips make their mark throughout the battle. But outside of round 2, where he got edged by his opponent’s more consistent firepower, in the end Trez proved to be too much. The ATL vet scoring left and right in rounds 1 and 3 with a flexing gang of fiery gun bars, stifling wordplay, gritty punchlines, boasful barbs, solid rebuttals and stinging name flips to score haymakers in each turn and gain the win.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Chef Trez – “Bro stop, I really set up shop and make the block hotter, if you wasn’t ready to risk ya life do not bother, we had junkies turning into rockweilers, it’s crazy how dog food could make fiends act like they got a shock collar!”

Chef Trez defeats Real Deal

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, against a turned-up Real Deal, in his home state of Pennsylvania, Chef Trez isn’t fazed. The ATL vet steady dishing a gang of stinging name flips, gritty punchlines, some fire rebuttals (esp. in round 2), educated metaphors, piercing gun bars and wily personals with steady ease to beat back RD, who outside of a punch-heavy and competitine opening round, had to cut short his second round due to a choke and despite some righteous/hitting bars in the 3rd, just couldn’t match his opponent’s more consistent firepower in the final round.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Chef Trez – “That’s why I wanna put a gun to y’all, go to an all Teacher’s meeting with a silencer and turn that room ito a Study hall!”

Klutz defeats Los Premee

by

Recap; From Public Influence Battle League, a 3-round uetter barfest between Klutz and Los Premee. The latter scoring left and right with a boatload of fiery gun bars, hard-hitting punchlines, ill street darts, wily personals and a spicy rebuttal game. While Klutz flexed his versatility and transitional potency throughout, confidently spitting out a gang of stinging personals, righteous heaters, fly storytelling bars, grandiose set-up/punches, hitting similes, boastful barbs and sporty wordplay just to have with it. But while Los’ often flippant punch game kept it close, in the end a performance-rich Klutz would prove to be too much as a consistently sturdy (classic), slightly more condensed and haymaker-lit round 1 would edge him the opener, before the Arkansas battler would deliver more of the same in both of the latter rounds for the 30.

Verdict: Klutz (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Klutz – “The way I lay a writter, timeless, my shit conveying wisdom, my words make Proverbs look like plagiarisn!”

While K1ng (minus a couple of near slip-ups during the battle) displayed his mettle with plenty of witty personals, a couple of solid rebuttals and stinging punches/name flips of his own. However, after an equally sharp, but slightly more condensed and haymaker-lit K1ng edged round 1, Ave would return the favor in round 2 to even things up going into round 3. The final round. tho competitive and laden with plenty of spicy punches on both sides, would be taken by the more profilic Ave to secure the win.

Verdict: Ave (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Ave – “Fall back with this posing, shorty just out here lying, about he grinding, look like he drink water from out the iron!”

Clsoe throught with a dialed-up crowd that was heavy into it, outside of a devatabel 2nd round, it’s a slightly more haymaker-lit and versatile (esp. with her added mix of righteous darts and similes) Hoep Trilly who edges round 1 and 3 for the win.

Verdict: Hope Trilly (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Hope Trilly – “We can get it crackin’, I’m talking pistols clapping, ny nigger’s will pop Zan…and then forget what happened!”

Rosenberg Raw defeats Chilla Jones

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, a fire and competitive 3-rounder between Chilla Jones and Rosenberg Raw that had an ill backstory what with Raw having worked for Chilla’s league as a commentator beforehand. That said, Chilla with the wily punches, spicy name flips, hitting personals and lofty gun bars and Raw with his signature bullish punch game, daunting street darts, witty barbs/personals and fly name flips/similes made this battle (which also had 1 or 2 solid rebuttals from each battler) close throughout. However, after a debatable and equally potent round 1, despite two pretty solid turns by Chilla, it’s the slightly more haymaker-lit Raw who edges both of the latter rounds for the win.

Verdict: Rosenberg Raw (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Rosenberg Raw – “My flow sick, so sick, I make ya baby mom’s suck my dick till her knees feel like Embiid’s after a road trip!”

Th3 Saga defeats Ave

by

Recap: Ave and Th3 Saga, a couple of longtime battle vets and URL Proving Grounds alums, meet up for the first time for 3 rounds on Taveova Battle League. Saga, scoring throughout the bout with a bunch of fire name flips, some righteous personals, graphic/hard-hitting/scripture-based punches and solid gun bars more than held his own. On the other hand, while Ave’s noted punching power and braggadocious rhymes were often there, surprisingly after a debatable round 1, the former Cave Gang member would struggle mightily with his flow in both the 2nd and 3rd rounds, leaving an opening for the more consistently and condensed Saga with enough room to take both of the latter rounds for the win.

Verdict: Th3 Saga (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Th3 Saga – “Why would you even cap for?, your only mission was to invest some green and protect the team, but Ave put himself over the city like Inception scene!”

Chef Trez defeats Kitchen Qleen

by

Recap: From CMC Battle League, in a 3-round battle that begs for plenty of spiffy wordplay what with Kitchen Qleen and Chef Trez facing each other, despite a gritty, competitive and sometimes witty effort from Qleen, the Chef’s richer palette of wily rebuttals (including 4 in round 2), consistently hard-hitting set-up/punchlines, fiery gun bars, piercing name flips and earnest street-themed bars are enough to take all 3 rounds for the win.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 3-0

The PA battle vet utilizing a gang of righteous personals, gritty trap talk, rich storytelling, glistening gun bars and hard-hitting/witty punches to earn the 3-0 over a Nu Jerzey Twork, who while able to compete with a bunch of rambunctious darts in both of the opening rounds, succumbed to an unsteady flow and a more haymaker-lit opponent before (already down 0-2) forgetting his bars and stopping short in the 3rd round to hand Eazy the shutout.

Verdict: Eazy The Block Captain (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Eazy The Block Captain – “Fuck a bigger .9, when I’m at the combine, you know how fast I’ll run to that .40!”

JC defeats P.A.Y.N.E.

by

Recap: In this 1-rounder from CMC Battle League, P.A,Y,N.E. utilizes a lot of aggressive and greasy punches to go along with some hard-hitting personals to keep it competitive. But with a steady, confident and grandiose turn that featured a plethora of stinging name flips, righteous darts, searing set-up/punchlines and death-gripping/clever wordplay, it’s the way more haymaker-lit JC who earns the win.

Verdict: JC (W) 1-0

But despite another hard-hitting and competitive round by Krash that had the crowd buzzing, an over-the-top Nitty spazzed out with a gang of stinging back-to-back punches, stifling wordplay and piercing/witty personals to take the final round for the win.

Verdict: Rum Nitty (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Rum Nitty – “You better watch who ya playing with…split screen!”

Verdict: Cortez (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Cortez – “Dollaz ain’t SNAP on no card, it’s a government shutdown!”

Ms. Hustle and Lu Castro [DEBATABLE]

by

Recap: In this 3-rounder from URL’s Outside 5 card, after getting out-punched in round 1 thanks in part to the performative and bullish (“Brand new gun, I ain’t even get to clicking, fresh out the box like Altoids, mint condition!”) punching, personal crazy and gun bar-lit stylings of Ms. Hustle, Lu Castro mounts a comeback that ends making this one a debatable. The former Goonie utilizing his wit to score a little more in the latter two rounds to go along with a bunch of seedy set-up/punchlines, performance-rich bars and stifling personals to edge round 2, before both battlers came equally hard-hitting and quantitative in Round 3, making the final round a tie and the bout a debatable.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Lu Castro – “You’re not manly or anything, you’re just a handsome woman!”

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, a competitive 3-rounder between (in what’s supposed to be her final battle before retiring) Pristavia and Shooney da Rapper that featured little (if any) name flips from Pristavia and a strong rebuttal game from Shooney. Close throughout with the Gun Titles vixen weaving religious themes with rich set-up/punchlines, some nasty personals, fierce schemes and piercing gun bars/similes. Shooney on the other hand came with a brash bag of tricks that included some mocking personals, mean punches and scathing disses/screeds that were mixed with violent darts and boastful barbs. A tight round 1 was edged by the slightly more haymaker-lit Pristavia. But despite another two pretty solid rounds by her opponent, it’s the more witty, versatile and slightly more steady hitting Shooney who edges rounds 2 and 3 for the comeback win.

Verdict: Shooney Da Rapper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Shooney Da Rapper – “She be going door to door on the church’s mission, I be in the hood, biscuit and drum, look like Church’s Chicken!”

Danny Myers defeats Wise

by

Recap: From Gates of the Garden, prolific, at times righteous, gritty and often-punch heavy turn by Wise in this close 1-rounder. But it’s a slightly more condensed, more personal-lit, boastful, gun bar crazy and set-up/punchline fiery Danny Myers who edges this one in the end.

Verdict: Danny Myers (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Danny Myers – “I’m supposed to battle Mook, Lux, iron Solomon, but nigga’s with those type of bars never show up, so it’s GTA, beating the shit outta random pedestrians hoping my star level go up!”

Kyd Slade defeats Prep

by

Recap: In this mostly competitive 1-rounder from Black Diamond Battle League, Prep takes advantage of his opponent Kyd Slade’s past legal drama to the tune of a boatload of hitting personals that kept him in the bout. But ever eccentric and potent when it comes hard street themes, graphic punchlines, rich similes/gun bars and jaunty personals, a more steady-hitting Slade scores more haymakers to get the win.

Verdict: Kyd Slade (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Kyd Slade – “But enough about what you’ve done, I just copped somethin’ Russian with a drum, and fuck that Gorilla, my man just faced a 100 years and won!”

Loso defeats Serius Jones

by

Recap: From End Game/My Battle Factz, still dipped in outdated flow patterns, elongated and mostly pedestrian rounds and a stubborn refusal to make more usage of his strongest attribute (humor), what else can be said about Serius Jones other than his ability to still give you 3 quality rounds without choking? And with his opponent also stuck in repetitive themes, outside of a somewhat close round 2, it’s an easy one for Loso. The 4 Horsemen member using a bunch of stinging punchlines, witty/mocking personals, righteous darts, a dope rebuttal and sporty name flips to handily take each round for the win/

Verdict: Loso (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Loso – “But I expect a pimp to know what a backhanded compliment is, so I wrote this only, to ask how you have all these hoes but still known as a one-trick pony?!”

Verdict: Tay Roc (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Tay Roc – “I got gun like Contra-BAN, you can’t tell that I snuck it in?!”

Tay Roc defeats Clone

by

Clone, displaying a lot of variety with his bars–everything from rugged trap talk to rich storytelling bars to some gritty punchlines–that even had Roc’s approval. On the other hand, relying on some fierce schemes, a bunch of fiery gun bars, frenzied wordplay and other violent-themed punches/name flips that for the most part hit, it’s the Gun Title capo who’s able thee score more haymakers and take round 1 and edge the 2nd for the win, before Clone returned the favor in the 3rd to avoid the shutout.

Verdict: Tay Roc (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Tay Roc – “I’ll let Ruger’s and Choppa’s off and won’t care of this dude survive, y’all should think of me as a stylist, uhhhhh it doesn’t look good with you alive!”

Recap: Dre Dennis versus JC for a 1-rounder on Gates of the Garden gets flipped on its head a little bit thanks to a competitive Dre dishing a gang of wily personals to go along with his usual assortment of spastic gun bars and solid name flips/punches. But with his elongated opponent bringing not a lot that we haven’t seen before when it comes to personal disses and other what have you, JC’s more condensed and steady round of clever wordplay, flippant similes, rich storytelling, some witty barbs here and there and gritty/boastful punchlines scores more haymakers and ends up winning out.

Verdict: JC (W) 1-0

Favorite line: JC – “War with me is not the best route, but it’s set now, I don’t finish without a body, the whole experience is out of body, you might wanna see yourself out!”

Verdict: Kyd Slade (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Kyd Slade – “You got got, and ain’t get nigga’s back, ain’t that a bitch, I’ll come snatch the chain off the Bear, I’m a animal activist!”

by

Recap: From URL’s ‘Outside 5’ card, a dope 3-rounder between Yunus and Mike P stays competitive for 3 rounds with the latter adding some righteous darts to an already sizzling plate of wily name flips, hitting personals and frenzied punches. Yunus, on the other hand, came prepared like well-oiled machine what with a gang of mocking personals, rigid set-up/punchlines, flexing wordplay, scintillating pop references and daunting screeds. Close for the (outside of the way more haymaker-lit Yunus taking round 1, despite a pretty solid turn by Mike) most part, an emboldened and more steady punching Mike would edge round 2 to tie things up before the slightly more potent Yunus would return the favor in the 3rd for the win.

Verdict: Yunus (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Yunus – “How am I not the best artist when I draw out the best version of who across from me?!”

Verdict: Charlie Clips (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Charlie Clips – “Go ahead and wave your white flag, I’m a still put a beam on that now it’s Japan!”

Swamp defeats Hollow da Don

by

Recap: In this 3-rounder from Takeova Battle League, after losing round 1 against the nifty, slow-roll punches, twisted wordplay and fiendish roasting sessions provided by Hollow Da Don, a turned-up Swamp uses a bunch of righteous darts, boastful barbs, gritty punchlines, violent-themed screeds and piercing personals to score more haymakers and come back to edge a competitive round 2 and (with the help of Hollow delivering a half-hearted 3rd that he eventually cut short) handily take the deciding 3rd for the win.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Swamp – “You ran into the Chef and he was slow-cook stewing you, nigga I ran into the Chef went back home and did a food review!”

Arsonal defeats Viixen The Assassin

by

Recap: From Gates of the Garden, against a Viixen The Assassin who was consistently competitive while unabashed in her sexual exploits, dishing a gang of fiery pinches and well-schooled in pointed personals and gun bars, after an overall solid and aggressive, but sometimes flow-challenged and less syrupy round 1 that cost him the opener, Arsonal gets it together. Da Rebel overcoming his opponent’s steady heat with a plethora of hard-hitting punchlines, boastful barbs, scathing personals/racial bangers and witty darts in a slightly more condensed display to edge rounds 2 and 3 for the comeback win.

But Chef Trez being Chef Trez, was ever ready to cook. And that he did via gang of more consistently spicy gun bars, fierce hometown flips, some greasy rebuttals, searing wordplay and a plethora of stinging set-up/punchlines over the course of 3 rounds to score more haymakers in each and earn the win.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 3-0

While Saga backed his moxie with a gang of fly punchlines, hard-hitting personals, righteous screeds and well-oiled similes. A close battle throughout, nonetheless it’s the slightly more consistent and haymaker-lit 4 Horseman who edges rounds 1 and 3 for the win.

And while Snake delivered his usual m.o. of hard, aggressive punches, grimy street themes and festive personals, a motivated (and performative) Rex came back with 3 rounds of in-ya-face boasts, witty barbs, stinging name flips/personals and piercing trap talk. That said, a haymaker-lit-on-both-sides round 1 make for a debatable turn. However, while both battlers kept it gully in the latter two rounds, it’s the less filler-prone, punch-heavy, versatile and slightly more condensed Rex who edged them both for the win.

Verdict: T-Rex (W) 2-1

Favorite line: T-Rex – “My guys keep a Glock 9 and an extra one just in case I tell then that I forgot mine!”

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, T-Rex with his usual assortment of hard street rhymes, frenzied drug tales and wily punches versus Ave and his robust punch game, boastful barbs and strident street themes makes for a competitive battle…for one round anyway. But after a debatable round 1, it’s pretty much all Ave at that point. The Norfolk, VA, battler continuously scoring with an aggressive, righteous at times, personal-heavy and haymaker-lit 2nd and 3rd rounds to easily overcome a way more pedestrian Rex to take each of the final rounds for the win.

Verdict: Ave (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Ave – “‘Cuz I ain’t like them other nigga’s Rex, let’s just be clear, whoever you dying to be I can help you get there!”

Chef Trez defeats Baby James

by

Recap: In this 1-rounder from League of Championship Kulture, Memphis battler Baby James puts on a pretty solid show what with plenty of random violence backed by a gang of fiery gun bars. However, while his confidence can be admired, electing to go first against the likes of Chef Trez would prove to be a serious tactical mistake by Mr. James. Trez utilizing a trio of searing rebuttals to go along with a series of consistently gritty punchlines, boastful barbs, hitting schemes, fire gun bars of his own and piercing name flips to score haymakers and earn the win.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 1-0

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, a 3-rounder between Jaz The Rapper and Arsonal. The two-time WOTY champ taking on Big Jersey while continuing to check off a long list of top tier male battle rappers that apparently ends with Murda Mook (who she took a shot at towards the end of her 3rd round). As for the battle itself? Altogether a goodie and definitely competitive throughout what with da Rebel dismissing any doubt of taking his opp seriously via an aggressive and often blistering package of scathing disses/personals, boastful barbs, solid name flips and gritty punchlines. While Jaz brought the heat with a gang of hard-hitting personals of her own, rampant violence, flippant gun bars, piercing set-up/punchlines and rigid storytelling that often landed. That said, a way more punch-heavy Arsonal would handily take round 1 before (thanks in part to a bunch of filler from Ars) the more condensed and steadily hitting Jaz took round 2 to tie things up heading into the 3rd. The deciding final round (tho they both had minor slip-ups) gets edged hereby Jaz, who again displayed more consistent flair along with enough hitting punches to earn the win.

Verdict: Jaz The Rapper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Jaz The Rapper – “You keep a purple flag in your pants, but you never seen Magenta in this pocket!”

by

Recap: From RBE, a lot of jokes from Charlie Clips about his opponent’s husband…but they still count. That plus a bunch of witty personals directed at Shooney Da Rapper (wily, pretty solid and even a bit off-the-dome lit throughput when she wasn’t hurting herself with one too many pedestrian lines), gritty punchlines/schemes and piercing freestyles/name flips allows Clips to score more haymakers and edge rounds 1 and 3 (call round 2 debatable) for the win.

Charlie Clips defeats Mike P

by

Recap: From Takeova Battle League, kind of weird that after all these years Mike P can be so sensitive about personals when it comes to his wife, when from his infamous 2nd round against Danny Myers to body-shaming Charlie Clips here, he has no problem engaging in scathing personals himself. That said, tho he a bit of a lazy 2nd, Mike’s strong set-up/punchlines (which edged him round 1) and sometimes otherworldly darts made for a spicy overall showing for a man heading into retirement from battle rap. But yet in another reminder of what usually happens when Clips takes a battle seriously–the Harlem vet’s gritty punchlines/wordplay, witty jokes, braggadocios raps, solid rebuttals and (after coming back with a punch-heavier round 2 to split things going into the 3rd), a dope, cleverly-written, witty, heavily personal (to Mike’s clear annoyance) and haymaker-lit 3rd round to win the battle. 

Verdict: Charlie Clips (W) 2-1 

Favorite line: Charlie Clips -“Guess what? Your girl give me dome and I respect her mind nigga1”

J2 defeats Chess

by

Recap: Finally displaying the level of consistency needed for more than one round to beat a top tier opponent, J2’s sturdy gun bars, solid name flips, wicked punchlines, hard street themes and wily personals combine to score haymakers over Chess and take this 3-rounder from Public Influence Battle League. Notwithstanding, Chess (who unabashedly had to leave the stage twice in round 1 due to issues with throwing up) still gave a good fight what with plenty of gritty punchlines, witty personals and stinging name flips of his own, kept it competitive throughout, but outside of a more haymaker-lit round 3, wasn’t able to keep up with his opponent’s slightly more richer palette.

Verdict: J2 (W) 2-1

Favorite line: J2 – “We was so deep in the streets, my therapist advice was don’t say nothing!”

by

Verdict: Shooney Da Rapper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Shooney Da Rapper – “I’m just trying to school you, with that pretty face and small body bitch you could’a been a drug mule!”

However, continuing to flex his wily punch game with a single rebuttal (tho he a couple of spicy one’s in the middle round) in round 3 while also taking taking advantage of a flow-challenged and more pedestrinn opponent, it’s the more stealthier Chef who takes the 3rd for the win.

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Chef Trez – “I remind ’em as soon as they think they ahead, I really tweak in these small rooms like Day-Day and Craig!”

JC defeats Dizaster

by

Recap: From Rooftop Newz TV’s “Seek and Destroy” card, against a bit of a flow-challenged Dizaster (who’s been battling pretty frequently of late) and his witty personals (and not much else) during what was an elongated turn, JC utilizes a bunch of sharp build-ups/storytelling lines that led to both some dope punches and personals as well as a gang of gritty darts/similes in a much more concise and better executed turn to take this one-rounder.

Verdict: JC (W) 1-0

Favorite line: JC – “Tell all these people where you really been, ‘cuz some of them glad to have you back, but I’m the one lashing the attack, some of these nigga’s might’ve actually missed you…I’m way too accurate for that!”

Dub with a dope mix of resonating set-up/punchlines, ill self-deprecating lines and wily/stinging personals, kept it buzzing throughout his round. While Chess kept the stage lit with a bunch of gritty punchlines, hard-hitting name flips, scintillating wordplay, righteous darts and flippant/witty personals of his own. A close one that was certainly worth the price of admission, it’s the slightly more condensed and haymaker-lit Chess who takes it in the end.

Recap: From Rooftop News TV, another pretty solid performance from Colorado battler Quis who’s wily set-up/punchlines, drug talk and gritty gun bars/personals for the most part hit their mark. However, when Geechi Gotti is on one, he’s on one.

But clearly turned up from the jump, the Bardashian reminded her opponent that there’s levels to this. Casey Jay straight spazzing in rounds 1 and 2 with a gang of scintillating/bullish punchlines, boastful barbs, wily/hard-hitting personals, flippant name flips of her own and other violent-themed bars to score more haymakers and edge both of the opening rounds, before Love returned the favor in the 3rd to avoid the shutout.

JC defeats Midas

by

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!”

Verdict: Chef Trez (W) 3-0

While the slightly more condensed Norfolk, VA, battler dished yet another strong and consistent punch game, when he wasn’t also scoring with a plethora of hardbody personals, stirring name flips, bravel raps and piercing gun bars.

On the other hand, Arsonal was his usual aggressive self but stayed competitive with a barrage of boastful barbs, witty personals, solid schemes, and brazen gun bars. He even threw in a couple of dope rebuttals to show the young gun he wasn’t going down easy. Still, outside of a debatable round 2, this one goes to Yunus.
