From my observation Jey has

• A mediocre pen
• No breath-control
• Lackluster delivery
• No quotables

Jey’s just.. tall lol

I mentioned the same thing a while ago
For some reason Jey never seemed that nice to me.

His delivery and pen are very mediocre imo, I just never got IT with him

I felt like he leaned to much on his size to get over.
Suge does a LOT more with a mediocre pen which is very clear when I compare him as an overall battler to Jey.

Hopefully Jey will figure out how to improve himself and I’ll give him his flowers when that time is there, but thusfar he just doesn’t move me as a battler.

I don’t dislike him or sumn, he’s just bland imo lol

Jey delivery is fire to me, I agree he doesnt have those viral quotables, but I fukk with the way he raps heavily

Suge's pen aint seeing Jey's, thats wild disrespectful lol

I hate when he does that whisper shyt at the start of his rounds. But when he turns up his delivery is dope indeed. His round vs mad face on bl6 went viral iirc.

Read my post again.

I said: Suge does MORE as an overall battler with a mediocre pen, compared to Jey with a mediocre pen

They’re still both “mediocre pen battlers” regardless if Jey’s technique is better than Suge

Suge has a lot more quotables than Jey and does them more often.

Technique doesn’t matter if it ain’t quotable.

There’s an art in making things quotable, we’ve witnessed the value of that firsthand with Eazy all 2021

There was an art in Goodz defusing Danja’s round like that

We all understand this in Battlerap watching Danja vs Goodz as an extreme example of that fact.
CLASSIC moment in battlerap :russ:

2 bars, and not even some incredible wordplay to get the job done

as a fan growing up watching the Lions Den era most likely you appreciate the skill Goodz displayed right there

Hitman displayed a similar skill against TODD

Holla: "Before I show you why I'm WAY betta, I figured I should help ya..
This the round I show you how to mold and groom.... you hear that?" :sas1:

*.................................................silence..........................................*

Crowd: :lupe::lupe::lupe:

TODD: :dwillhuh:
Holla: "I ain't even rhyme yet, and I'm already teaching the lil nikka how to control the room" :sas2:

Crowd: :krs::krs::krs:

Holla: :youngsabo:
You haven’t mastered your pen if you can’t make it quotable. Which comes down to the same thing I said. Suge gets MORE out of his mediocre pen because he mastered the art of quotables that Jey hasn’t.
And Suge does MORE overall as a battler compared to Jey

From my observation Jey has

• A mediocre pen
• No breath-control
• Lackluster delivery
• No quotables

Jey’s just.. tall lol

Again, I don’t dislike Jey

These two definitely not true I’m not mad at him being on your list though after the Cortez and Loso battles shyt was garbage but when Jey in his bag he is in his bag

Yea you right, I misread what you said earlier my bad

With that said, I still disagree that Suge does "more", unless you mean the performance he adds (if so, disregard the rest of the next few sentences). Jey can go to different places with his pen than Suge. Yes he's had some airballs but he's also had angle-based rounds, conscious rounds, and turnt up rounds that hit. Suge is much more one-dimensional imo

Now as far as being more quotable, I'm a Jey fan so obviously I replay his shyt more than the average fan would. But idk fam, the last time Suge bar I remember verbatim is the jackhammer bar he had for Ave whatever year that was.

Suge cool, but let's not sit here and act like ppl are repeating Suge bars like that. And he definitely don't got a round that people are re-posting on Youtube like this

5 battlers that are least enjoyable to watch

1) Bill Collector
2) John John Da Don
3) Charron
4) Ooops
5) Casey Jay

Lol, no wonder me and you don't really be seeing eye to eye sometimes. Ooops, I can kinda understand because he is hit or miss when it comes to his actual battles; outside of his battles, he gives you accolades and etc. Casey Jay has leveled off and it has shown since she has been with the Bardashians (which is sad). Everybody hates JJDD on here so I'm the odd man out since I don't mind him, lol. But Charron and Bill put in work tho so you must really really really really really really hate them; like you don't give them wins even when they do good or if they have a classic. Interesting list.
