Essential The Official Battle Rap Random Thoughts Thread (URL, KOTD, UW etc...)

Roc done caught the god tier levels of Clips, Goodz, Pat, Mook, Daylyt. Damnit man.

Roc caught Grey Hoodie Lux too lol

Lol nah that’s crazy.

True. Roc gets the toughest version of those top level opponents. Not sure if we should applaud that they brought to him (showing a level of respect for his skill) or be like damn, he may have took a few L's against the top names.

I’m not saying Eazy can’t win, and it would be for the very reason you said. I was only responding with that because of the dismissive nature a couple of posters have about Chess.

I try to hold back on going in on Chess but he kinda does let me down now from battle to battle. Like he talks a great game in the face offs but sometimes when its time for him to show up...It goes downhill, bruh. Hate to say it because I feel like he is truly talented. And plus, I don't think he can get past Eazy like its a safe battle. I'll say Eazy 2-1 for now but I want to see what Chess has in store. I'm going to give him another chance at the very least.

... and to think Hollow chose to throw hats in the crowd vs. Roc

I didn't mind Hollow in that battle. But I feel like alot more people don't give him that win after time has passed.

I thought he lost in real time


But I feel over the years people gave Surf the Hollow battle.

I got Hollow 2-1 in both the Surf and Roc battles still. But then again, fans like to play Hollow because he is a standout. Never chokes for real and is very prepared.

When have we ever seen an "A game" Goodz or Pat??? I know we all have done the "if this version of such and such shows up" but i need clarification.

Tay roc got bodied by goods. So did Cassidy, Abdi, and Danja zone.

People don't play Hollow because he is a standout lol, Hollow just has super high highs, and super low lows. I'll give him credit for taking risks with the way he writes, but Hollow has as many misses as he has hits over time.

We might have to agree to disagree on that. I do think if he was way more of the run of the mill gunbar battle rapper, fans wouldn't go in on him.
But yeah he's very risky and some of things he does just doesn't stick to the wall when he executes it.

Nunn Nunn 2 for 2 with these tracks I've heard from him.

Hollow was the perfect hybrid of the URL battler and the Grindstone/KOTD battler. He merged the best elements from both sides and became a beast. Fans were demanding the Lux battle battle for him while he was still in jail.

Somehow down the line the corniness of grindtime took over him. If he's not having horrendous dry spots, he's abusing that grindtime flow (Tom Brady and Bomb Lady's had 9 baby's with Nas' Dre Beats ) or doing curios antics like throwing his hats in the crowd (Roc) or making it rain dollars on Surf


I just hope he finds a happy medium for Summer Madness. But with K-Shine playing the hothead role, Hollow might try some anger management gimmick
