Recap: One of, if not the most anticipated battle of 2014, B-Magic versus Conceited turns out to be a goodie, especially with a frenzied crowd that was tuned into every punchline, scheme and so-so bar. 1st round, easily the best of the bout, would set the tone early on with a confident Magic dropping consistently spicy punch after punch with rich abandon and timely slices of wit. While the veteran Con would standup to his opponent with an equal fervor via hitting (“Twin guns, I’ll fill drums and you’ll lift them both, I’m the type to raise up two black 4’s to nigga’s like Different Strokes!”) punches/gun bars, jaunty personals and piercing wordplay. After a close opening round (edged here to the performance-heavier Con), however, things would begin to separate a bit as frankly speaking, Magic just kept his knee on Con’s neck, never letting up while dishing another barrage of nifty wordplay, gritty (“If you buggin’ you’ll get sprayed, I exterminated groups, metal talkin’, Con’ll run like Terminator 2!”) name flips and consistently spitfire darts to beat back a pretty solid and witty, but a bit topsy-turvy 2nd by Con and doing more of the same in the deciding 3rd to earn the win.
Verdict: B-Magic (W) 2-1
Favorite line: B-Magic – “Who wildin’ out? Magic palmin’ the biscuit, every motherfucker rollin’ behind Con is gon’ feel it, got a pine box in the cemetery, Con should go visit, this bitch is fucked behind these bars: conjugal visit
