Recap: Surprised, as I write this, that no one has set up Barz Major versus Bankhead yet as the two battlers so similar in skin tone, aggression, flow, screw faces and what have you. That said, Barz gets an ‘A’ for effort here, rapping his heart out and staying competitive with a host unorthodox punchlines, steely name flips and fiery personals/gun lines. But as they say around the water cooler: they’re levels to this shit. And with a condensed Rum Nitty consistently boasting a load of exquisite heaters, jaunty name flips and lofty wordplay throughout this battle, no matter what Barz did here, he stood little chance of success.
Verdict: Rum Nitty (W) 3-0
Favorite line: Rum Nitty – “Keep playing, get hit with something sharp that’ll lay you flat, what it’s gonna be, Major?!“
