Recap: Hard to recall anyone outside of Nu Jerzey Twork that’s gone up the ladder in the URL as quickly as Geechi Gotti. And while the Compton, Cali emcee has certainly earned all of the accomplishments and accolades he’s garnered in the past 3 years , you’d think more of the vets in the game (outside of NJ that is) would’ve studied enough of the game tapes to beat Gotti. Well, enter Aye Verb. The St. Louis battler getting on some ‘God-tier’ shit and rapping his ass off for 3 salacious rounds, using mocking personals, plenty of lyrical stunting, some solid wordplay, boastful barbs and gritty vet talk on gang life to edge the 1st and 3rd rounds over a Gotti who while serving up his usual palette of hardbody punches, a wicked series of personals that challenged his opponent’s manhood and other assorted real street drama, came a little predictable at times and altogether couldn’t keep up with Verb’s comeuppance when it counted most.
Verdict: Aye Verb (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Aye Verb – “Aye, I’m confused a bit how you start yo’ rounds like, ‘You’se a bitch’, but you get flew out by dudes and shit, get a bag, go home and buy weave bundles…No, you’se a bitch!”
