Swamp defeats Gwitty

Recap: Dope battle between Swamp and Gwitty, sees them both packed with heated bars, rich set-ups, witty lines and various methods of destruction. Still, while Gwitty for the most part came (“I’m mad skinny, I need a country girl to get with me, I beat all in her face, I heard y’all eat good in the country…I expected more on my plate!”) nice with his despite struggling with his flow here and there, a slightly more consistent with the punches and more (“‘I said ‘cuz this is not an act, I’ll pull up where you popping at and pop a gat, have the cig tucked behind a nigga ear like its the last one from out the pack!”) haymaker dropping Swamp ends up taking this one-rounder from No Ransom BL.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Swamp – “I hope you came on your A-1 shit, no slip-ups or stumbles, I hope you came with balance, ‘cuz I got beams, machines, bars, schemes, set-ups…this shit look like the ‘You Name It’ challange!”

Swamp defeats D Nice

Recap: Holding it down for the opening rounds with a gang of visceral punchlines, drawn-out mayhem and sporty name flips/wordplay/set-ups, a more condensed Swamp puts in enough work to beat back a thrill-seeking, gritty and punch-lit, but also elongated D Nice in what was a competitive 3-rounder from No Ransom Battle League.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Swamp – “I made all the funeral arrangements for your ass nigger, I even paid for the plot, the casket was expensive as fuck, but shit even U-haul make you pay for the box!”

Swamp defeats Polo

Recap: Nary lacking for confidence, Swamp uses a gang of boastful stunting, scintillating gun bars, fiery personals and flippant name flips to beat back a solid and gritty, but nowhere-near-as-potent turn by Polo in this 1-rounder from Carolina Barrs Rap Battle league.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 1-0

Favorite line: Swamp – “Every time this bitch open his mouth, dog gonna lick a shot, that’s a Snapchat filter!”

Swamp defeats Shawty Raw

Recap: Well, if there’s one thing you just can’t do when there’s money on the line in a battle, it’s choke. Unfortunately for Shawty Raw–who after getting overwhelmed by Swamp’s grimy bars, way more potent lines and heated punches in the 1st round, made for a gritty enough comeback in the 2nd to make that round both competitive and debatable 2nd–his fate (and $400) would not only be decided by his opponent’s sizzling punchline game and fiery gun bar verbiage, but also a total loss of his bars.

Verdict: Swamp (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Swamp – ” I said I’m done playing, you see me, it’s front pages, gun’s blazing, bucks from all kinds of muthafucka’s…like you fundraising!”

Robb Marley defeats Swamp

Recap: Even the out-of-nowhere phone convo in the 3rd round doesn’t do much to help Swamp as besides a debatable 2nd round, opponent Robb Marley more condensed lines, lofty personals, witty jokes and ‘shit’-laced punches in the opening and closing rounds prove to be no match for Swamp’s less potent bars and often erratic showing.

Verdict: Robb Marley (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Robb Marley – “I thought you was gay in school, bitch your lip gloss was popping!”
