Recap: Back on a solo mission, Yung Ill proves himself to be up for the task, delivering a stellar dish of fiery performance bars in the 1st and (“Y’all gave his battery in his back a charge and he still can’t match my practice bars!”) 3rd rounds to edge punchline-fiend Heartless. Indeed, while the SONS captain spouted steady rich (“You oughtta be ashamed now, your career like the Mario brothers, soon as it got on the pipe it went straight down!”) personals and phenomenal (“Lick a shot, they get nuts with it like bar food!”) wordplay at times, he would fell victim to not only Ill’s penchant for hard rhymes, but his own slip-up in round 1 and way-too-short 3rd.
Verdict: Yung Ill (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Yung Ill – “This perfect, the SONS left you in the Lou deserted to face the Sandman, nigga I’ll ask a bitch where you stay, throw a clip in the K and take a trip to L.A., I’m a Rams fan!”
