Recap: Here versus Xcel on the KOTD stage, the comedic, name-flip potent, storytelling, hometown-friendly and rebuttal-lit stylings of Frak not only make for an insane 2nd round, but more importantly a tie going into the 3rd. But just like he did to take the opening round, Xcel’s on-point lyrical jousting, punch-savvy wordplay, Jewish barbs, wit and sizzling set-ups/personals prove to be enough to take the deciding 3rd round and earn the win.
Verdict: Xcel (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Xcel – “Why come fuck with the hood when white privilege sided with you?, but y’all love adrenaline, so that help me find this clue, this put you close to danger, but not really in it, this is the VICE for you!”
