Recap: Handpicked battle from actors Idris Elba and Jonathan Majors on URL, between Chess and Charlie Clips, gets its own special location at Chris Brown’s crib and as to be expected turns out to be a goodie. Clips, with a bunch of fiery schemes, witty personals/punches, piercing 4-bar setups, standout name flips and offhand jokes mostly at NuNu Nells expense, did what he does while keeping the crowd (and his opponent) entertained. On the other hand Chess, taking a minor break from going after all the ‘New Era’ battlers, does his thing with a gang of street-laced lyrical shiners, streams of intricate wordplay, brazen punchlines, hard-hitting personals and stinging schemes/mayhem. Competitive throughout, after getting slightly out-punched by Clips in round 1, the more direct and comsistently-lit Chess takes the latter two rounds for the win.
Verdict: Chess (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Chess – “You stand too close, I’m a separate ya bean like ordering a lucnch special from Spanish folk!”
