Reed >>>>> Cassidy


agree due to performance on stage. If cass can bring that energy, less mic time... with no fillers. Cass can be back in business. But I think cass think his way is the best and nobody gonna change his mind.


With that said, forgot the last battle reed had on the url stage but I gave him the win and was happy for him. He went off (vs rum??)

Indeed it was Nitty. He had a really good first I remember. I think he edged the third or second too. I can’t remember. I know the general consensus is he won that battle. I thought he did good in his second round against Surf too

My big issue is the fall
Rex fall off was crazy
When I look at Rex I look at someone like Ars too
Ars had bad showing but never fell off
Rex last 5 yrs tarnished him to me

I mean Ars is a legend in his own right, so I wont downplay him for the sake of this debate.

But Rex's name been relevant in this battle shyt since like 2002. He had bars against Un Kasa that his opponents were referencing in battles like a decade later. Even if you wipe out the last 5 years, we're still talking about almost 15 years of work.

A legend doesnt mean the GOAT imo, it just means that your name ring bells throughout the test of time. Which Rex's definitely does. Even as trash as he's been lately, ppl still tune in to that man. He has an interview on 15MOFE that already at 100k in less than a week.

Im not even a fan of Rex, but to say he's not a legend is kinda nuts bro lol

Now this is what I call a philly legend actually returning to form :wow: He just needs to be a little more clever with the bars and he's good. Or maybe not. Geechi gets away with waaay m,ore basic shyt. Reed's delivery is pretty good these days too


Im fine with Reeds current bar/writing level albeit its barely above average; hes a great rapper. Dope flow, decent narrative ability and a nice delivery. Hes everything Geechi thinks he is.
