Recap: ‘Mr. Everything’ John John da Don and gun line aficionado Rum Nitty go at for 3 rounds on the URL/Smack stage and it’s a goodie with JJDD going after Rum with resident name flips, but also some angles/allegations you don’t often see against the Arizona spitter: being one-dimensional with his raps, biting (“You took Roc’s whole style and took pride in the shit, your writing legit but nah, it’s not as exciting as his, Gun Bar King, Gun Line King, yeah you biting his shit…the Stone Cold Stunner, RKO, it’s the same move, minus the kick!”) other battlers and dishing questionable bars during past battles. Those factors along with some witty (“But I’m supposed to believe that you let your gun blam, when you wore those supposed-to-be-Jordan’s…that let us know you wasn’t real from the jump man!”) punchlines and gritty schemes/personals make JJDD more than competitive here. But Nitty being Nitty, while never lacking for sizzling (“This shit wicked, like government assistance, Nitty tripping, dump the body, put 4 eyes in the river…Mississippi!”) punchlines in any bout, did more than enough to stay in this one (even with a rare slip-up in the 1st round that caused him to end the round early and get edged by JJDD), thus bringing enough heat with his pen to make for a debatable 2nd, before taking the final round with enough haymakers to beat back a very solid turn from his opponent.
Verdict: TIE
Favorite line: Rum Nitty – “This was one of your go too guys on the URL, off the belt I’ll pop a Smack shooter like Sugar Hill!”
