That's definitely a fair point.
I thought Clips won in the building against Hollow at NOME for that very reason. Clips just sounded better.
Though I don't necessarily agree about DNA. I think pretty much everybody is tired of seeing him at this point. He's just cannon fodder & he wouldn't be missed if he wasn't on the next few cards. He's nobody's favorite and nobody buys tickets to see him. Smack keeps booking him because he's reliable and probably takes whatever little purse Smack offers him. DNA battles so often, it's obvious there's ZERO negotiating involved to book the guy. Convenience and a low asking price keep DNA in the game, not popular demand.
DNA isn't as beloved as Clips but....
People enjoy DNA in the building & people watch DNA battles. Whatever appeal that WE believe he has, he has a little bit more than that.
There are 100 Hot 97 "Funkmaster Flex freestyles" on Youtube, of those 100, 3 of them are from battle rappers. He is one of those three (Mook, Clips & DNA). His likes to dislikes ratio is the best of the three...
