Recap: Apparently back on his grind after recent bouts with choking, an almost flawless-with-the-flow Chess does his part, in this electric Banned battle versus Nu Jerzey Twork, to deliver a punch-heavy, (“Basically, I’m comin’ at (@) him, he strapped in!?, I’ll SMASH in…both his hands wit’ a hammer!, how he gon’ use his strap, then!?”) wordplay-spazzing and mayhem-dishing (esp, during a rousing and almost flawless 2nd round) performance that the College of Kicking Doors Down can only appreciate. Too bad for Chess, except for a shortened 2nd round that helped his opponent tie things up after he took the first, NJT was on his A-game too, the big man rocking the crowd in the 1st and 3rd rounds with a steady stream of steely punchlines, fierce name flips, raucous (“Your life’s ending, pipe lifting, eyes squinting, light-skinneded [Bang!] till there’s no more left then the right kickin’n [Bang!], now there’s one more left for the nice Smith n’, Shine on Chess [chest], ice pendant [Bang!] steel [still] get off…white privilege!”) gun bars and fiending anecdotes that were all backed by a spitfire performance to earn the win.
Verdict: Nu Jerzey Twork (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Nu Jerzey Twork – “I’m at ya crib…if he in there sleepin’ peaceful, then he in for a rude awakenin’!, big shit!, I’m sittin’ by the bed while he snoozin’, waitin’, sniper rifle: bird eyes on Chess [chest] like a Hooters waitress!”
