No Bias. No Narratives.
Recap: Staring off a bit pedestrian, in this 1-rounder from GOTG, King Kamonzi gets spicier with his punches as the battle proceeded to make things competitive. Yet, armed with a fiery arsonel of consistently lucid punches and some piercing name flips/wordplay/gun bars, it’s Brixx Belvy who easily gets the win.
Verdict: Brixx Belvy (W) 1-0
Favorite line: Brixx Belvy – “I see a foe [.4], he see a .9, the Hennessey different!”
Recap: With an elongated King Kamonzi spitting a gang of mostly mediocre punchlines while strangely drenched in themes surrounding time, one would think this 1-rounder would be a lay-up for the likes of a vet like Swave Sevah. But clearly showing he had close to zero interest in battling his opponent, Swave resorts to using his turn to pontificate on the state of battle rap, tag in one of his Team Homi bro’s for a minute of fiery punches and just in case the viewer thought that Swave didn’t take this battle at all seriously, toss in a few throwaway bars at Kamonzi for good measure before completing his round. In other words, a pretty lackadaisical effort from Swave that allowed his opponent (who, to be fair, did mix in some crafty punches that hit here and there) to get a win he clearly didn’t deserve.
Verdict: King Kamonzi (W) 1-0
Favorite line: King Kamonzi – “I’m 50, you 50, that’s a century let’s keep it a buck!”
