Recap: A ‘Priorities’-missing and (thankfully) ‘pause’-less X-Factor returns to the URL stage from a brief hiatus and puts forth a strong showing here against Jerry Wess with a gang of stifling punchlines/schemes, heated (“That Glock .20, long clip, it’ll finally hit his scalp and bullets will spit out Jerry like Tom finally caught the mouse!”) gun bars and some fire name flips/metaphors that more than proved that if there was any questions about ring rust, the Detroit vet had none. That said, Mr Wess was just better here…in every round. Using an entertaining mix of fiery wordplay, witty (“If it wasn’t for me, Smack would be denying you, with a nose like that, I envy whoever supplying you!”) punches and sometimes with the help of his friends, salacious performance bars that had the crowd roaring, Jerry Wess does it all while earning a 30 in a battle that to give X credit was still closer than the final score indicates.
Verdict: Jerry Wess (W) 3-0
Favorite line: Jerry Wess – “Just ‘cuz you never seen me before, don’t make me new nigga, your new girl my old girl, I was X [ex] before you nigga!”
