Recap: Never a dull moment in this one as the state of New Jersey receives the spotlight in of all places, the UK, for a highly raucous and entertaining Summer Madness matchup between Nu Jerzey Twork and Arsonal. No newbie when it comes to being on the big stage, the rising star that is Twork would live up to the hype with a fierce load of head-ringing 4-bar set-ups, aggressive gun bars, stifling/mocking personals and some excellent wordplay/storytelling bars throughout the battle. All the while, the veteran Arsonal, ever the showman with Jersey forever stamped on his back (no matter where he might actually be living at the time), would bring nothing but constant heat, using wily vet talk, stunting Twork-isms, plenty of boastful darts, witty barbs and fiery name flips/heat/mayhem to get his point across. A close battle for all 3 rounds, the edge here goes to Twork, who with an almost flawless 1st round and a more condensed and superbly executed 3rd, edged both those rounds for the win.
Verdict: Nu Jerzey Twork (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Nu Jerzey Twork – “I’m so for real, Errrrt! grip and I load the steel, ‘cuz before a nigga beat me with Squidward’s clarinet, I’m a do a drive-by in the Invisible Boatmobile!”
