Recap: From URL, Chess and T-Rex stage a 1-off to make up for that little kerfuffle they had recently at Irving Plaza and it’s a doozy. Rex with a shitload of gritty punchlines/name flips, aggressive street anthems, storied trap talk, righteous heaters and a few witty personals without a hint of any mixtape bars, definitely came to win. While Chess’ in-ya-face boasts, piercing punches/metaphors/name flips, flexing lyricism, crazy set-ups and flashy gun bars served as yet another example of the Young Gawd’s standard of excellence when he isn’t dealing with unforced errors. Competitive throughout, after the two split (had the slightly more haymaker-lit Chess taking round 1, before Rex returned the favor in round 2) the opening rounds, it’s the more punch-efficient (and effective) Chess who takes the deciding 3rd for the win.
Verdict: Chess (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Chess – “I’m just here to ruffle feathers with this, if you feeling disrespectful with it, you could really get at me, Diddy and Cassie, we gonna settle this quick!”
