No, she didn't. This is exactly what I'm talking about. You felt a whole round of "I'll fukk you with my strap on" bars?

I didn't feel any of that shyt but I felt she was more lyrical & creative than him in rounds 1 and 3. I thought that is what people meant when they say "outbarred". I personally don't use the term, just wanted to make a point it isn't all about who has more " bars". Stuff like performance, delivery, conviction, presence, crowd control etc are huge.
That's why the crowds come out to see Roc.

It's clearly moved from critiquing battles to personal issues with the rappers.
You throwing out blanket statements. Aside from @Young Fab , dudes just critique his bars... And even in this convo, most dudes said multiple times that they at least are ok with Roc overall for what he brings to stage. For what it's worth, the same conversation was had about Sug.

I don't see how that's personal.

Can somebody name all of JJs classic battles/clear wins???? I can't think of a single one. Or even a standout moment from the nikka.

I don't care about gas but this stretch this word to make it sound like this other one is the wackest shyt ever.

Was it just me or does anyone else remember when it was severely frowned upon when you did this back in the day?

I don't remember it being frowned on.. I just don't remember it happening much at all.

I don't ever recall anybody frowning upon it, but I do remember it happening a lot, but it was just "small" stretches. Like anything else in battle rap, guys trying to be more creative and come up with new shyt, have to stretch it even further. I personally don't even got any issue with it.
