Recap: Get past host Norbes and Jazz the Rapper dressed in their PJ’s and way too many sights of Nu Jerzy Twork’s underwear and you’re left with a barfest of a PG battle between Jakkboy Maine and Drugz. Start with the fact that Drugz, steadily aggressive with surefest punches and gritty (“I’m showing him why Drugz is one of DMV’s well-known soldiers, when it’s wartime, you a cannibal late to dinner, you get the cold shoulder!”) shiners, did much of anything wrong in round 1, but an oft-understated, but highly polemic with fine-tuned (“These [points up two guns] like kids at a puddle, they jump across!”; “Gun up, but a big let down like something for what you wasn’t expected!”) gun bars Jakkboy did way more to take round one. If you thought the first round was fire, the second round was even better, but moreso for Drugz, whose steadier flow raucous gun bars and audacious (You was up there talking about my debatable’s right? knowing damn well you in a relationship with a debatable dyke!”), personals gained him a split going into round 3. Which while solid on both sides, significantly lacked the consistently flagrant verbiage of the previous two rounds and contained some stumbles from each battler as well, so call it even.
Verdict: TIE
Favorite line: Jakkboy Maine – “MJ impersonation, it ain’t right [points up fingers like gun] without the spin, 6th man, ya face will see ya backboard when ya meet the rim! !”
