Recap: After Drugz puts together a phenomenal 1st round that pushes (“Do business with him on the street?, I couldn’t even fathom that, why you pack pitching and gat-toting anyway? don’t the captain of the block supposed to have nigga’s to handle that?!”) back on his opponent’s entire battle rap repertoire, Eazy the Block Captain displays plenty of mettle by refusing to wilt. Indeed, with the Philly rapper upping his gritty stylings with fiery set-ups, fierce (“Oh, you back with your team now huh?, oh that’s cool, you winning, but just like the Goonies, wasn’t fucking with they own brother in the beginning!”) personals, potent jailhouse raps and discernible ‘real rap’ bars, even with a couple of elongated rounds, thanks in part to a more pedestrian Drugz coming back to earth in the latter rounds, the Block Captain edges rounds 2 and 3 to earn the win.
Verdict: Eazy the Block Captain (W) 2-1
Favorite line: Eazy the Block Captain – “All that tough shit, nigga you can have that, but on this stage don’t let it go past that, or a real bar could go over your head…and y’all don’t gotta ask ‘Did he catch that?’!”
