SO, beginning of this year Chilla had a chance at Verb only to back out at the last minute, even saying he wanted no parts a verb cause he was washed....

But now he wants Verb huh? I'm a Chilla fan but he lookin kinda shaky baby...
Chilla is the one dude that the vast majority of the Zone agrees on. He may have streamlined his bars, but the slow delivery and missing pieces in his presence HAS to be fixed before he takes another step. Chilla is the perfect case study of how bars can't be everything, no matter how dope.

i thought the real reason was because URL blocked it

Now that verb brought Ill back to the URL they prolly down to let him battle chilla, if he wins he can go back to talkin shyt to Lux, claiming he's back

if he loses then Chilla got a legend W under his belt

Who do you enjoy more, Steams or Chess?

The ENess battle is where I really understood Steams appeal & how enjoyable he can be.

As far as one on ones go it was Chess clearly until recently. But Steams pen is getting sharper, while Chess is making a habit of being long winded.
You gotta really lock in to Steams voice so I guess I still think Chess is slightly more enjoyable.

Chess is obviously the more explosive of the 2 with more potential, but there is an age gap between them. which can make Steams more relatable to nyggas around his age range. Like nyggas have been saying on here, Steams does have that throwback type of feel. He really did a good job in the Eness battle not sounding so much like a "WGH" nygga.

is it fair to say you light skinned nyggas have the worst voices in battle rap?

Hollow
J Murda
Todd (brown skin although he's close enough)

What started out as a joke has me questioning if this is really true.

He's supposed to battle Gwitty soon.



lol Not a great choice of opponent for Gwitty, this could be Swave vs QP Sons all over again. The wordplay guy getting exposed badly by the strictly real talk guy.

Sco gets at least one round easily if he talks about the Gwitty/Brooklyn Carter situation. Then if he clowns Gwitty's antics in another round, that's the battle right there.

But since it's on a small league, I guess it won't impact Gwitty's "career" as much.
