Are you really going to argue about this as someone that casually keeps up with the culture? He was apart of Innuendo (with qp) and Writers bloque, that would notoriously have conference calls spitting their bars and getting critiqued.

As far as Mook, he was isolated by himself in a room getting ready for Tay Roc. Guess who was with him. T-Rex
Fair enough

what he said in the blog had nothing to do with “working” with other battle rappers though

what he said in the blog is a fan trying to tell a battle rapper how to battle rap is a joke

when the battle rapper is the creative force in the equation

which is exactly what I was saying the other day

I know that, but I also wanted you to be aware that Daylyt himself has been part of several groups.

You could argue that has helped elevate him to where he is today. How do you get better as a rapper? By hanging with other rappers right?

Daylyt was a low level battler on grind time with a mediocre pen and built himself up to have a elite pen.

What if Geechi battles 2wice at NOME lol. Mickey and Jay were talking about it

Geechi is pushing for a Calico battle and he has enough cache to make it happen. For all we know it could already be booked with a "to be determined"/NOME target date. If Geechi makes it to the finals of the tournament he can very possibly have 2 battles that night. The super wild scenario is this tho. Mickey and Jayblac were also saying that Mook wants to battle the winner of the tournament. Of the remaining contestants I think Geechi and Nitty would be the only ones that would have handshake agreements in place for NOME battles already. So if the URL would be willing to let someone battle twice on NOME its possible that that someone can be the winner of the 100k tourney, 2 NOME battles in the same night and get Mook at Summer Madness. That would be a crazy year of accomplishments in battle rap.

As great as a battle rap mind Mickey is, I don’t understand how he overlooks simple stuff. He really thought NJT had a great chance of winning the tournament. It’s like how? The nygga can’t even get through his rounds. He has a clear trend of doing this. How do you not consider these things when making predictions?

This is exactly how I feel when it comes to Chess as well.

Not being able to get through ya round is a lack of talent in a critical aspect that to me can’t be ignored while making predictions.

And it SHOULDN’T be ignored when it’s time to evaluate and speak on someone’s talent imo

Being able to write/perform alone isn’t enough for me to put you on a pedestal, AT ALL.
Not when you’re consistently showcasing you can’t even get through ya material.

I was one of the first out here championing Twork, but he’s a major disappointment to me.

Everything was in his favor to make it big.
The lights just got too bright when the fame and the money came and he dropped the ball.

That’s why no matter how corny DNA can be in battles, I RESPECT him as a professional. He always does his job wether you like him as a battler or not.

If I was a betting man, I wouldn't have gone with Twork on this. But I get why people saw he could go far in the tournament. Because he can prep well last minute "allegedly". But he is way more choke prone with three times the hype than most of the people in the tourney. I guess the amount of money on the line makes fans think their favorites will take it that seriously and not bullshyt on prepping for their battles.

Agree on that comparison to Chess, too.
Spot on.

Exactly. People act like dude was always this type of writer; all of the clown ass antics kinda have hidden that Daylyt is one of the most improved battlers in history, as far as writing is concerned (he's still indirect as fukk outside of that Roc battle). It's not possible that the fact he was in so many groups and around so many other battlers/writers didn't help improve his skill.

nikka eat butt. Daylyt is one of a kind. Nobody is helping him with anything. He was only one actual battle rap group. Dot Mob. Crakk City and WB was on some miscellaneous shyt why would help him write material? You too @theflyest

And yall forgetting Day didn't join WB until after the B Magic battle. He was already reinvented by then.
