Synopsis: Nice battle (tho someone’s gotta tell heads who wanna talk during a battle to go elsewhere) esp. for a PG matchup. Both D.O.T. and Chess had energy, similar styles, ill schemes, great wordplay and performance galore. Close throughout, but when you dissect the battle a little bit it clearly came down to who had more sensibility (Sorry Dot, but the Olympic logo has 5 rings, not 4. And “Gabby Davis”?!? Lupus being a “hair” disease?!? Really?!?) with his bars as well as who dropped more haymakers–that’s Chess on both counts.
Verdict: Chess (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Chess – “Pop your melon while you sleep, you’ll be yelling, that means I blew dreams out his dome for getting loud, but that’s regular, that’s dot, dot, dot, etcetera, etcetera . . .”
