Recap: Fire battle between KG The Poet and DNA that was almost a debatable, but upon closer inspection the edge here goes to KG, who took the first two rounds before faltering in the 3rd thanks in part to a couple of nice DNA rebuttals, name flips and (“Don’t try to fight me, you couldn’t Ice T if you knew the Art of Rap!”) punchlines. Rewinding back to the 1st and you saw both battlers going hard with spitfire bars and aggressive shiners. Still while DNA was a little more consistent, the predictability of a handful of his set-ups along with a couple of more acquiesce haymakers from The Poet, lost him the round. And while DNA sported some fiery (“I’m slick with the lines, I’ll be getting the .9, Yung Joc, the big nose will push his wig to the side!”) bars a fine basketball scheme in the 2nd, a couple of reaches within the frame and a slightly more versatile (“This NWX nigga in the land where nigga’s still bang NWA when they riding!”) turn from KG got him that round too and eventually the win.
Verdict: KG The Poet (W) 2-1
Favorite line: KG The Poet – “I’ll break this man, this nigga was a gangster from age 6 to 8 and got his tooth knocked out [mimics spitting out tooth]…change of plan!”
