Recap: If only Bad Newz could match his heat and aggression with more consistently hitting punches more often. Indeed, his battle rap career could be on a much different path. Because when Newz lands his haymakers, more often than not they shake the room due to the Bronx-to-ATL rapper’s sheer intensity and steely set-up ability. That being the case, taking advantage of a Snake Eyez who was a bit too bent on rundown Dot Mobb personals when he wasn’t spitting a gang of aggressive, but lukewarm darts in the opening rounds, a more momentous, brazen, at times wordplay/name flip-lit and personal/street-savvy Newz gets the win in this 3-round, crowd-audacious from Bullpen before Snake would get his comeuppance in a fire and steady-hitting 3rd to edge the final round and avoid the 30.
Verdict: Bad Newz (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Bad Newz – “You know you can’t believe nuthin’ that come outta Snake’s lips, them bitches tongues is split!”
