QP (Qleen Paper)

Swamp defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: Damn, there used to be a time when your biggest worry with Qleen Paper was whether or not he was gonna show up to the battle. But choking? All 3 rounds?!? SMH. Needless to say after seeing his opponent fail to complete all of his rounds, it’ll never be any easier for Swamp. The South Carolina battler getting the 30 and a rare bodybag on top while doing his part via a trio of rounds filled with a bunch of sturdy punches, boastful/fiery barbs and his usual plate of Southern-style cooking served with piercing name flips, aggressive name-calling and prolific gun bars that made this URL ‘Redemption 2’ bout a mixed blessing anyway.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Swamp – “The bull dog is for close range, but the scope on a rifle, for the deep threat, the swamp, you jump off in that water, you gonna more than ya feet wet!”

Geechi Gotti defeats Kitchen Qleen

by

Recap: Finessing left and right with a fiery punch game throughout while adding his usual assortment of hard-hitting boasts, piercing name flips, a solid rebuttal and potent street talk, Geechi Gotti takes the two rounds handily and gets the win over a witty and personal-lit at times, but outside of the wisecrack-filled 3rd that scored him a debatable, not nearly as consistent with the punches Kitchen Qleen in this 3-rounder from GTX.

Verdict: Geechi Gotti (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Geechi Gotti – “You gonna be popping 30’s till you end up in the dirt fool, BUt at least ya family ain’t have to take care of you no more, see death got perks too!”

Ill Will defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: In a dope battle between two of Michigan’s finest, after a slightly more versatile, witty and consistently hitting Qleen Paper edges round 1 of this RBE matchup, Ill Will gets on his bullshit with a gang of head-ringing gun bars, brazen punchlines, fiery name flips and high-octane/rich storytelling personals to take both of the latter rounds over his still solid, but less lit opponent and get gain the win for Yak-town.

Verdict: Ill Will (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Ill Will – “Choppers on display, with a llama on the way, Qleen [clean] all over the house like ‘Shit, my mama on the way!'”

Qleen Paper defeats Reed Dollaz

by

Recap: Reed Dollaz may be wary of all the name flips his opponents throw at him, but I can’t think that he gets any worse than say Drugz (who hears his moniker flipped even more considering he battles way more than Reed does). Either way, in this gritty Orgamyzed Cryme Battle League 1-rounder vs. Qleen Paper, while Reed’s hardbody punches would make their mark here and there, a more consistently cooking Kitchen Qleen equipped with more than just resounding name flips, but also scoring with fierce set-ups, witty barbs, fiery street missives and flippant boasts, would get the win.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “See, nigga’s be talking that big hustler shit and they really be clowns, window drapes, up all Summer, but in the Winter he down!”

Chef Trez and Qleen Paper [DEBATABLE]

by

Recap: In the midst of a biting wind outside, a visually sound Qleen Paper still does a nice job playing up an underlying, moniker-friendly ‘Kitchen vs. Chef’ theme, using some solid (“What you cook is [kisses the air] what I cook is crack…the pot different!”) [wordplay and gritty angles to get his point across. However, Chef Trez, with a shortened and easygoing turn that he probably did on the way to the store, still dished out enough gripping punchlines and meaty name flips to earn a draw.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Chef Trez – “We miss the clean {Mister Clean] you used to be, now nigger’s mopping the floor with you!”

Swave Sevah defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: Since he probably wouldn’t have to leave his crib to do one, I’m guessing that league owners may want to think about getting more ‘Quarantine’ battles out of Qleen ‘Mr. No Show’ Paper while they can. That said, dope 1-rounder here between Qleen and Swave Sevah, but a slightly more gritty, personal and Coronavirus-themed-with-the-punches Swave gets this one.

Verdict: Swave Sevah (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Swave Sevah – “We’ll do Qleen [clean] filthy, see my fam with the shit’s, we been masked and gloved up before this Pandemic hit!”

Qleen Paper defeats Dot Everything

by

Recap: Dot Everything’s steely flow, greasy street chatter and gritty punchlines/mayhem make for a one-dimensional, but competitive and pretty solid showing. But in this 1-rounder from Hit List Battle League, a way more versatile Qleen Paper, not just stuck on dishing raucous punches, but also nice with the witty barbs and searing name flips, is able to drop a more condensed round of haymakers for the win.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “I’ll get your bitch ass knocked off, with the big K, it just look like the pistol, ‘cuz the stock off, if she hit, I’ll put that bitch on Everything like hot sauce!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Capboy Hurt

by

Recap: In this competitive 3-rounder from Black Ice Cartel, Capboy Hurt, sturdy with the heat and fluorescent with the mayhem/punches, puts on a solid showing. But a performance-heavy and more versatile Qleen Paper displays some rare 3-round consistency via a barrage of stunted name flips/gun bars, gritty punchlines. fire set-ups/schemes, rigid jokes and some hard personals to take the win.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “You let it ring, huh?, man, get the fuck outta here, this shit just seem aww, Kawhi Leonard, I’ll bring two to Milwaukee and stop all that ring talk!”

T Top defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: Mostly solid and fierce battle between Qleen Paper and T Top as a seemingly motivated QP kicks that real street drama along with witty personals, festive (“This bitch loud, some shit you ain’t trying to hear like an intervention, big chopper, I gotta put it on a stand like it’s a witness!”) gun lines and slick punchlines to stay competitive for two rounds, before running out of gas midway in the 3rd. However, even for all of QP’s real talk and more acidic lines, for each round Top would have an answer for everything his opponent dished via steely trap talk, stinging personals/name flips, rich storytelling schemes and his own barrage of heated (“It ain’t a game, the dessert so long I gotta pray for rain!”) punches to earn a 30.

Verdict: T Top (W) 3-0

Favorite line: T Top – “Speaking of coke, I remember when my uncle wouldn’t sell me nothing, now he the first one line for me to sell him something, cops used to ask us questions, but I ain’t tell ‘e, nothing, fat nigga, used to keep an 8-ball in my belly button!”

Qleen Paper defeats Jimz

by

Recap: Taking advantage of a couple of recent unfortunate/notorious events that happened outside the battle rap ring towards Jimz was probably the easy part. But a focused Qleen Paper not only getting busy with spicy performance bars, but dishing lyrical heaters left and right…well, that was a bit unexpected and frankly speaking, dope to watch. Especially in a much-anticipated grudge match like this one. And while an at times self-deprecating, witty and punch-heavy Jimz was solid overall, one too many reaches along with some perplexing name-dropping and very so-so punches definitely hurt him in rounds 1 and 3, which to Qleen’s benefit, outside of a debatable 2nd, gave ‘Kitchen Qleen’ the win.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “Jimz, you only tough on the ‘Net, I know your type!”

Jai 400 Block defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: In this close 1-rounder from RBE between Jai 400 Block and Qleen Paper, Jai’s head-ringing punchline game, piercing personals and flexing mayhem are enough to beat a witty at times and gritty with the punches, but not as steady or pointed as his opponent QP.

Verdict: Jai 400 Block (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Jai 400 Block – “Bishop on the roof is the only time we seen Q let an arm go!”

Qleen Paper defeats Young X

by

Recap: Taking advantage of a Young X who for 3 rounds was mired in mostly pedestrian bars while coming hit-n-miss with the jokes, with a steady mix of slick punchlines, witty personals, solid name flips, banging heat and gritty street boasts, Qleen Paper manages to pull off a pretty easy 30 in this 3-rounder from Smack/URL.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “Bulldog snubs, thick as mad, this bitch a vest snatcher, I got the long nose on a .44…I got the X factor!”

Pretty Hippie defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: Here in this one-rounder against a solidly scheme and punch heavy Pretty Hippie, a sluggish Qleen Paper resorts to kicking a mixtape verse halfway through his round and for the rest of his turn. Needless to say, that’s pretty much asking for a loss.

Verdict: Pretty Hippie (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Pretty Hippie – “This real rap, we respect Smack, nigger’s ain’t seen murder, ’round here nigger’s get smacked after they say ‘cheeseburger’!”

Qleen Paper defeats Eazy The Block Captain

by

Recap: Splitting up his witty roasting sessions over the course of 3 rounds, while adding in some spicy personals/punchlines/name flips here and there to go along with two condensed turns, Qleen Paper manages to edge a gritty and punch-heavy at times, but also a bit elongated and redundant Eazy The Block Captain in the opening rounds to gain the win before a more amplified Eazy took the 3rd.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “Face shot, got his body twitching like he streaming!”

Rydadie Ty defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: It’s a tale of two Qleen’s as Mr. No Show takes us back to his early Smack days with a condensed, but spirited and (“If he was to light a fucking pay stub on fire, he still couldn’t match by check!”) spitfire round 1 that just edges a fiery, but not quite as hot turn from Rydadie Ty. However, the 2nd round round sees a game Rydadie up his performance, while matching them with stirring schemes/storytelling bars, witty (“He the type to yell ‘Domino muthafucka!’…and that’s at a cookout!”) punches and lucid punchlines, while easily beating back a topsy-turvy round by Qleen that saw him lose his flow and get it back before cutting his turn short. In other words, a lot like the Qleen we’re used to seeing of late. The deciding 3rd round saw Rydadie put forth a solid turn, nothing quiet as comparable to his first two rounds, but still with enough heat to beat a pretty ordinary turn from Qleen.

Verdict: Rydadie Ty (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Rydadie Ty – “I’m squeezing on a ratchet like a slow jam!”

Dubb da Feenom defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: Qleen Paper, who’s earned quite the rep of late for not showing to battles, actually makes an appearance here against Dubb da Feenom. And for what it’s worth, while spitting (with the help of some of his boys) a clean round with some witty jokes without any hiccups, still didn’t distinguish himself enough to beat back the effortless and fiery punches/wordplay of Dubb da Feenom in this one-rounder from Step Your Ink Game Up battle league.

Verdict: Dubb da Feenom (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Dubb da Feenom – “My bars about to get Qleen [clean] pissed, it’s like I’m on parole!”

QP (Qleen Paper) and Dre Dennis [Debatable]

by

Recap: In this 3-round matchup from Trap NY, it’s a showcase of typical insular, braggadocio, anti-social gun bars spouted by both (“Like when you’re done watching porn online…Qleen [clean] your history!”) Dre  Dennis and (“When I get the chrome, he Chilla Jones, all that scheming for nothing!”) Qleen Paper that keeps the drama interesting throughout the battle. However, after a more condensed and spitfire QP edges the 2nd round (after a debatable first) to take the lead going into the final round, his penchant for Earl visitations along a very resilient Dennis, combines for a draw at the end.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Dre Dennis – “Your stock drop because you take gwap and you darting, dropping tiers because you fake son like ‘Sorry I lied to you Martin!’“

Qleen Paper defeats Da Example

by

Recap: Tight matchup between Qleen Paper and Da Example has them both dishing a variety of solid gun (QP: “With this strap I’ll throw ya brains back, it’s a difference between a reminisce!”) bars, fierce schemes, rich (DE: “I get all my money out the streets, I don’t fuck with Qleen [clean] Paper!”) metaphors and some nice personals. In the end tho, from seemingly wanting to impress against a big name like QP, Example’s elongated round turns out to be half-fierce and half-pretty average, leaving a more succinct QP with enough room to maneuver a win, even if he did ‘borrow’ that “The 9 kick back like you hit me first!” line from prez mafia.

Verdict: QP (Qleen Paper)

Favorite line: QP (Qleen Paper) – “Lawrence Fishburne, I jumped on my Deep Cover, with the strap, he turn Meance…’We supposed to be brothers!”

Nu Jerzey Twork defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: Take out Qleen Paper’s half-a-minute or so slip-up in the middle of his 2nd round and against the ever-rambunctious Nu Jerzey Twork, you have a much closer battle what with QP’s slick-talking veneer dropping some dope punches here and there when he wasn’t dishing stinging gun (“The beam on his face, soon as it get down to his nose, ring!”) bars, aggressive personals and witty shiners. But clearly focused and repeatedly applying the heat with a host of fly (“I’ll grip a blade, leave ya lip hanging off, give ya a ‘nigga please’ face!”) weaponry, oft-subliminal, but biting wordplay and fierce name flips, Twork wasn’t having any of his opponent’s veteran panache, edging a close round 1 with more spice to his haymakers, before also winning the latter two rounds with the help of a slight downturn in overall potency from Qleen as well as his aforementioned cogency with the bars coupled with an overall very ‘strapping’ performance.

Verdict: Nu Jerzey Twork (W) 3-0

Favorite line: Nu Jerzey Twork – “Sharpshooter, with the lens, I could go pro [GoPro], [Bwoh!] [Bwoh!], it’s shooting in slo-mo and he’ll who hit him…but you should be used to the No-Show!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Ty Law

by

Recap: Scintillating, last-minute, one-rounder between Ty Law and Qleen Paper has both rappers going full tilt with what they’re readily known for. In Law’s case, hard-hitting (“That gay shit you shout dawg!, make country nigga’s say ‘no homo!’, like left-hand fighters, he make the South pause [southpaws]”) punchlines and crazy (“He knows that was dope, that barrel scary, [points hands like gun towards Qleen] I bet you can’t look straight in that, like Verb in that plastic coat!”) wordplay, while a somewhat surprisingly well-prepared Qleen’s consistently whimsical (“I mean your bars cool, but mines hard stool, I got my shit together!”) bars and gritty street talk reminded of what he’s capable of when he brings his A-game. In fact, with little on the personals side and both dishing out an equal amount of haymakers, it’s Qleen’s slightly more consistent delivery and slightly higher bar quotient that ends up getting this one in the end.

Verdict: QP (Qleen Paper) (W) 1-0

Favorite line: QP – “He gonna talk about somethin’ ‘Yeah I hope you got some hands to go with those loose lips’…boy yeah, I got them hands, fuck you thunk I’mma shoot with?!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats K-Shine

by

Recap: What would’ve been a close battle between Qleen Paper and K-Shine bar-wise, becomes a 3-0 thanks to Shine’s repeated slip-ups in the latter rounds and a surprising choke in round one. Qleen, who came nice with witty (“I talk shit and back it up, bitch that’s bad plumbing!”) anecdotes, dope (“I got a deal for you Shine, like two for five, No I came to deal with you Shine, like two .45’s!”) punchlines and hard (“I be on some fuck battle rap, I’m in the hood getting my transactions up, you in the hood smacking on your he/she because your trans acting up!”) personals throughout his 3 rounds, clearly had it in him to win this battle anyway. But K-Shine, who when he wasn’t getting caught with the EARL bug dished out a load of fiery name (“I came here to clean [Qleen] up Paper, like the money launderer”) flips and potent (“What we got?, another Midwest nigga with a death wish, nah, fuck the audience I clap first trying to get a cheer started, quick to throw a round in a round, like I’m beer-ponging”) storytelling bars that made things competitive, practically gave this one to Qleen with miscues that are unbecoming for a vet.

Verdict: QP (Qleen Paper) (W) 3-0

Favorite line: QP – “Say no more, I’m about to intervention him, Bruce Jenner him, he don’t even want to hold the thing no more!”

Tone Bone and (QP) Qleen Paper (DEBATABLE)

by

Recap: Proving once again that consistently taking battle rap seriously is still not an objective, Qleen Paper gives us yet another shady performance in a battle he should’ve easily won against Tone Bone. To think, he actually edged round with a variety of jokes and some solid punchlines versus mostly standard lines from Mr. Bone. But then in a move that totally came outta left field, Qleen literally gives away his 2nd round by letting new BFF QP spit for more than half the round–bars that wouldn’t even counted if they were dope considering that another man spit them. Last round finds Qleen serving up more style points than substance, allowing Bone to take advantage with a better delivery, despite having nothing all that spectacular to say, the effort alone makes for a debatable…smh.

Verdict: Tone Bone (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “I tried to instruct him, but he was lost from the first step like an A.I. defender”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Kloud MkBreeze

by

Recap: For some reason Kloud MkBreeze saves, by far his best round, for the last round with a wicked combo of stifling (“He want y’all to call him Qleen Paper, in Detroit they call you ‘Tell Something!'”) punchlines and literal off-the-dome haymakers. Too bad MkBreeze’s late battle hysterics and early rounds hibernation works in favor of Qleen Paper (who might want to think about ditching the oft-sloppy solo endeavors for some two-on-two with new PNC QP) as he had just enough (“All this talk about how you dumping it please, I’ll put this nigga in a bag like I’m done with the leaves”, “Chrome to his back, because behind every Kloud [cloud] is a silver lining”) ‘light bars’ to edge rounds the first two rounds, overcome an ill-prepared 3rd round and basically survive with just enough air left in the tank for the win.

Verdict: QP (Qleen Paper) (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Kloud Mkbreeze – “You know how I know now only are you a bitch-ass nigga, but you’s a dumb nigga?, because you got sonned by a S.O.N. nigga then joined his fucking team, so that mean you got jumped in by one nigga”

Qleen Paper and Arsonal da Rebel [DEBATABLE]

by

Recap: In this solid 3-rounder from Black Ice Cartel, Arsonal does a mean Qleen Paper impression and had his moments (“The closest you’ll ever get to being King is Tekken 4!”) bar-wise, but way too many reaches and pedestrian lines hurts da Rebel in the long run versus a Queen hellbent on talking past beef with Detroit rappers when he wasn’t tossing out a nice assortment of gang-related personals and lucid boasts/punchlines. Still, as challenging as this battle was when it came to mediocre punches, it had its share of comical stylings from both battlers and stayed close throughout, leaving us with a slightly more versatile Ars taking the 1st round, before a more consistently potent Qleen edges the 2nd, before the two, pretty equal on bar efficiency, turn out a draw in the deciding 3rd.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “Fuck that, I ain’t bring no 9’s and shit, I got a scope so I can find a hit, y’all know how it go, the softest grape on the vine get bit!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Q.P.

by

Recap: A long-awaited grudge match between QP (Qleen Paper) and Q.P. turns out to be a bit underwhelming on both sides as besides a fire (“Your mom look like a dried up grape, yep, the bitch raising [raisin] you!”) round 1, Quantum Physics usual pedigree for superlative wordplay were quite pedestrian in the latter two rounds, while Qleen’s boastful darts and gun punditry weren’t consistently noteworthy. Still, helped by an elongated turn by his opponent as well as some witty barbs and fiery (“Swave?, I would’ve laid that big nerd down, 3rd round?, my hands would’ve went around his neck, since I’m known for choking!”) personals/punches, a more condensed Qleen came back to edge the 2nd round before also edging the deciding 3rd with pronounced heaters along with a slightly more consistently potent output.

Verdict: Qleen Paper (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “Nigga, I’m the only QP you’ll notice, Temptations nigga, you been hating….nobody coming to see you Otis!”

John John Da Don defeats Qleen Paper

by

Recap: A rare peek from inside URL’s Vault here finds John John Da Don going up against Qleen Paper and up until Qleen pulls out his phone to remember his bars towards the end of his 3rd round (which, ironically he was receiving doubt over whether or not he’d even having a 3rd round, considering some more recent, ill-prepared performances) it was a goodie as Qleen’s mocking personals (esp. towards Rosenberg Raw), witty performance bars and gritty street boasts edged him round 1, before the versatile, set-up/punch-lit and brazen JJDD (who’s only problem here was way too many shots at Calicoe here, yunno, instead of the guy he was facing) came back to edge round 2 to even things up. However, as alluded to earlier, despite some effort that got him half-way through, a solid final turn by Qleen (against another fiery run by JJDD in the 3rd) would amount to a huge misstep by the Detroit up-n-comer when he forgot his lines and had to go to his phone to complete his round, thus helping John John seal the win.

Verdict: John John Da Don (W) 2-1

Favorite line: John John Da Don – “I hear this pussy say it again, like John John ain’t real he just faking again, I reply like ‘What nigga?!’, put the .8 to his chin, it’ll be the first time he won’t say it again!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Chris Kane

by

Recap: Chris Kane came with plenty of biting personals (which QP rebuked), but drawn-out schemes and basic bars wasn’t enough to beat QP’s hitting bars even on a day he put in that light work…literally.

Verdict: QP (W) 1-0

Favorite line: QP – “You worse than Udonis Haslem because you hold down that Heat for nothing”

Black Haze defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: I don’t care what these battle rappers do outside the ring, but when you show up for a match is it asking too much for a dude to take his craft seriously and give 100% effort when he spits? Apparently, too often for Qleen Paper, it is. And this was supposed to be the main event?! Smh.

Verdict: Black Haze (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Black Haze – “I’ll smack the shit outta Qleen because I like to feel Paper in my hands!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats HBK

by

Recap: Not many battle rappers can prepare a short roudn with the confidence enough to feel they’ll win, but QP does so here. And with enough funny jokes, hilarious impressions and personals to style on, he gets this one easy, all in 3 and a half minutes.

Verdict: QP (W) 1-0

Favorite line: QP – “Oops, my bad, get him with his own quote in the ring, I’m fucking over HBK, Stone Cold in the ring”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Jus Juice

by

Recap: Jus Juice kicks that hard shit and he’s authentic with it, but not all his bars hit as much as the hometown crowd would like you to believe here. Then too when QP is on top of his game, there’s hardly anyone out there that’s more entertaining, much less able to spit that real rap the goons and wannabee goons love so much, but deliver jokes and wicked punchlines along with it. Good battle, but more variety bar-wise from QP gave him the edge here.

Verdict: QP (W) 1-0

Favorite line: QP – “I’ll give that limelight your set through, bananas on that chopper split that apple and cranberry his chest too, you little strawberry nigga, after breaking down all that fresh fruit, its Jus Juice!”

Bill Collector defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Synopsis: Outside of an off 2nd round, Bill Collector literally wilds out and puts together one of his best performances to take a win from QP (Qleen Paper).

Verdict: Bill Collector (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Bill Collector – “It’s gonna be a whole lot missing from your neck region, put your face in your chest now you breast feeding”

Daestro Dollar and QP (Qleen Paper) DEBATABLE

by

Recap: Clearly not taking this battle seriously and practically handing Daestro Dollar a win, QP puts in a weak 3rd round and then watches Doolar…do the same. Since I had the first two rounds split, this one gets no winner.

Verdict: TIE

Favorite line: Daestro Dollar – “Respect the God or die slow, cuz’ if I find out you and your man hating, I’ll have your crib surrounded by Mexicans like they landscaping”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Johnie Alcatraz

by

 

Synopsis: Any boxing judge could tell you that sometimes what determines the winner of a fight isn’t the quantity of the punches or who landed the most, but the quality of the punches or who landed more haymakers. That’s the case here–a dope 1-round battle (love the visuals here!) that sees an elongated Johnny Alcatraz do little wrong except land exquisite bar after bar (“I lick shots and then the gun will peel, because hollow heads to the pipe will bring paper to the light like I’m trying to check if a hundred’s real”), so much so that you wouldn’t be wrong to think the sometimes unprepared QP having little chance at winning this battle. But when his turn finally arrives, a confident QP doesn’t break a sweat, launching into an all-encompassing palette of righteous heat that took on everything from ridiculing his opponent’s tongue ring and his hood credentials with well-executed boasts to fiery street talk to piercing punchlines with the “Little nigga, you couldn’t hold piss on a road trip!” bar serving as the nail in the coffin.

Verdict: QP (W) 1-0

Best line: QP – “While you was playing them school games, I was stuck on the block took up a tool trade, for the right fee, your team will step like Spike Lee off a School Daze!”

Tay Roc defeats QP (Qleen Paper)

by

Recap: Tay Roc is both a seasoned vet and a good challenge for anybody, thus one would think that in front of his home crowd a rising neophyte like QP (Qleen Paper) would not only be prepared, but amped to put on a dope performance for his native Detroit. Unfortunately, that’s not the case here as after putting forth a stellar first (“I’ll sweep ya grandma cane, sleep that bitch and tell her get up off the floor and out your teth back bitch!”) round, which featured a lot potent trap talk and hard-hitting bars, Qleen’s stock went immediately downhill as loaded bars were replaced by a whole lot of filler, dry spots and a 3rd round that’ll probably go down as the beginning of Qleen’s “I don’t give a fuck” run. Meanwhile, Roc had a strong and consistent performance throughout, dropping straight (“ya man got an issue, whip out that pistol [points] then Qleen next!”) heat, landing punches with aggressive bars, nice (“I’m in Detroit, where you riding, wack nigga, word is in Detroit is he a lying [Lion] ass nigga”) personals, dope name flips (esp. the Detroit battle rapper lines) and killing it with the (“We pull up right beside of ya, shooting, no photographer, you don’t wanna dance with me, get ya choreographer”) wordplay. Altogether, a sound performance on the road by Tay Roc and another dub for Mr. Maryland.

Verdict: Tay Roc (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper – “I’mma play the bishop role, you could have King, I don’t care if you with your bitch, I’ll make a bad scene, grab weave and pull it down the block…that’s a drag queen!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Rosenberg Raw

by

 

Synopsis: After a couple of one-sided rounds (which included, at the end of QP’s round one, what might’ve been the best promo line in SMACK history) with each rapper taking one, QP skates through the third round of this battle determined to throw in as many personals (“Now everybody walk around this bitch screaming ‘Free Bill Collector”, at least now he around some real bars!”), jokes (“At first I was like where the fuck they get this corn from, come to find out they only put him on because he Norbez son”) and storytelling bars as possible to get the win while maintaining all the hype he built up early on in his battle career. Rosenberg, as too often the case, didn’t weave enough of a last round to stand a chance.

Verdict: QP (W) 2-1

Best line: QP – “But look cunt, You gonna take this loss like I’m giving you a fat ass kush blunt, that’s the perfect L”

B. Magic defeats (QP) Qleen Paper

by

Recap: Early and classic Proving Grounds battle from URL/Smack goes to B-Magic, whose fierce punchline game, understated wit and flexing (“My next body like my room, I gotta make it clean [Qleen]!”) wordplay beats back a solid performing, (“Hustle down to the D, ’cause I can arrange that, there everybody know QP, I’m still that same cat, not that SONS nigga, I ain’t a fucking child, he from southern Cal where it never rain at!”) slick-talking and amusing Qleen Paper in the 1st and 3rd rounds to earn the win.

Verdict: B-Magic (W) 2-1

Favorite line: B-Magic – “Magic let the 80 pill, I got an Army that’ll get your whole Navy sealed, you ever seen baby blues?, get your baby killed, pull a can, make Dirty Dance, Patrick Swayze skills!”

QP (Qleen Paper) defeats Diligent

by

Recap: Grind Time is primarily known for knapsack rap so it’s interesting to see the likes of QP on here. Still, with nice performance bars, steady jokes on his opponent’s age and hot bars, even outside of URL, QP shows you what he’s capable of when he goes full throttle.

Verdict: QP (W) 3-0

Favorite line: QP – “So stop talking that ‘this chopper’ and ‘my gauge’, your grandkids my age, now what would they think if they saw you Corey?”

Qleen Paper defeats Artic

by

Recap: Plenty of boastful darts, gun talk and mediocre punchlines in this 3-round battle between Qleen Paper and Artic. But with the addition if a little wit here and there and a nice freestyle in the midst of his 3rd round, it’s QP who gets the win here after the two split the first two rounds.

Verdict: QP (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Qleen Paper –  “I roll down ya block and bitches watch out the window, just to get ’em hot, throw some gwap out the window, let ’em see them spinners I stop and then go, look Artic, stop lying, I’m not your kinfolk!”
