Recap: Now who doesn’t long for the days of dope, under 20 minutes, 3-round battles? ‘Cuz that’s what KOTD gives you again here with Daylyt taking on Rich Dolarz in a gritty and lyrical punch-fest that should also be noted for taking place pre-“antics” stage if you’ve been a follower of Daylyt’s battle rap career and need another reminder that the notorious, West-coast spitter can actually rap really well…when he wants to. And while Dolarz gives Day all he can handle with a boatload of solid schemes, piercing gun bars and fierce name flips/punchlines, it’s a nice-with-the-cadence, wordplay-vicious, incredibly witty, mayhem-inducing, without-the-ski-mask Daylyt who takes the first two rounds for the win, before a turned-up with the punches and more condensed Dolarz edges the 3rd.
Verdict: Daylyt (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Daylyt – “Round of applause, everybody crying, bullets like a funny joke, they got everybody dying!”
