Shine’s basic ass DNA punches aren’t better material than what Chess spits. Shine needs to have a gimmick (his Wild ‘n Out game vs Hitman) or go in overdrive with performance to separate himself. This also applies to Shine’s upcoming battle with Nitty

Of course, Chess is Mr. “If”. And that's what this battle really comes down to

I think Shine 30's Chess right now:yeshrug:
Not sure what Chess has shown anyone recently that would make you think any different.
He beat Twork and apparently had an all time classic battle with Geechi that hasn’t dropped yet.

Bar for bar Shine can’t see Chess at all. His best hope is Chess chokes.

Shine has been boring for about 2 years now. The last battle of his where he was actually impressive was against Verb and I’m not gonna excuse the fact that you can listen to him and clearly tell when his fellow NWX members have coached his bars.

He's a biter, repetitive, and tends to not attack his opponent at times. I feel like his material can go towards anybody lately.

I agree. He had the nerve to battle Geechi and sound like he was using NJT’s leftover material but no one really wants to address it. I don’t even remember what Shine sounds like anymore because I can clearly tell when his bars are DNA or Big T assisted.

Shine was reserved and played it cool against Verb. To date, one of his best showings and he doesn't do that anymore.
That whole sounding like NJT is gonna catch up with him against the right opponent. Its a new angle.

You can listen to a Surf interview and see why he chokes so much. He rushes through everything he says.
Surf speaks and raps like he’s scared people are gonna stop listening to him in the middle of what he’s saying so he rushes to get everything out.
