Recap: Statz G and Ha Double get a lot off their chest in this close and competitive battle from Houston Bar Code. After Statz’ edges the first round with a stronger showing filled with braggadocio bars, gritty gun lines and potent (“…I should blast two in you, it look good on the screen, but in person it ain’t the same, he like that new item on the fast food menu!”) punchlines/personals, Ha comes back with a more pronounced, personal-laced and (“I think out of space, give his soul a AR [solar] and let these bullets orbit in his system!”) wordplay-heavy turn in the 2nd to beat back a less stirring and elongated round from Statz. Going into the final round tied, both battlers push their pen and let it all hang out. However, after starting out with a nice rebuttal, Ha Double edges the round and the battle with another personal-themed turn that highlighted by fiery schemes, fiesty/witty struggle bars and pointed, performance-heavy punches.
Verdict: Ha Double (W) 2-1
