This guy diss guys by wearing a disguise

Only time we in disguise is when we fittin to get the drop

I dont rent my floors"flaws" nigga I own mine

Joe Budden was on Total Slaughter like when celebs go on WWF and wrestle and shit. Rocky fighting Hulk Hogan and shit

 

[SupremeXXV]

We fans of battle rap tend to overreact when a shitty event takes place. "This has set battle rap back", "Battle rap suffers a black eye again". As long as SMACK/URL, KOTD, and UW are around, battle rap will always be good (Shout out to Black Ice Cartel too) it might not ever go super mainstream, but who gives a shit? Mainstream always fucks up a good thing.

Mook been mastered the "dumb down for my audience to double my dollars" technique

 

[za'kiss]

Yea, i like the battle culture vs the industry angle hollow used. Even his third round was dope imo, other than the "hit another woman" shit.

I dont condone this shit, but honestly, I think I wouldve snuffed Hollow for that shit. Cuz he clearly said stop my time and stopped rapping.

Im bout to rewatch mook vs lux, on first watch I gave it to mook 2-1, with lux edging the first. The crowd was definitely favoring Mook, so ima see if I missed some shit Lux was saying on first watch.

I got Lux 2-1.

So far, every one of my predictions were right. I picked Mook, Rex (2-1), Ars (3-0), and Hollow (2-1). I'm disappointed because I wanted my Lux prediction to be wrong lol.

 

[za'kiss]

Lux's mistake is that he used the same angle for three rounds. The most effective battles are ones that either attack from a different angle each round, or developed the angle in new/interesting ways progressively with each round.

He went the opposite direction. He hit the hardest in the first and then kind of just said the same thing for another two rounds but with less punches.

 

[za'kiss]

Hollow only had 1 punchline that was dope at aim Joe that first round. Yall take this industry vs underground thing seriously.. He gets no points spending most of that round dissing Rosenberg/Iovine when Joe is the opponent.

Them rounds were all about how Joe is a Shady Records pawn my nigga, a commercial failure being forced out by the machine. And it got proved when Joe tried to walk off stage like he dgaf and his mans made him finish his bars.

Math Hoffa on Dizaster Fight: "It Was a Setup"

Math Hoffa chopped it up with VladTV Battle Rap Journalist Michael Hughes following his now infamous fight with Dizaster at KOTD's BOLA 5 battle event.

Math broke down the entire fight and reflected on everything that went down. The way it all played out, Math truly believes that it was a setup, and that Dizaster's Grape Street crew planned to rush him before the battle even began. He thinks that fans believe Dizaster's hyper battle persona too much, and that in reality Dizaster is not that type of person at all.

Math addressed people saying that what happened to him doesn't count as "being jumped," and he believes that that is simply foolish logic, considering the fact that the footage shows multiple people attacking him. He also explained how he came to notice that he got sliced underneath his chin, and that the cut felt like "two lips" opened up when he first became aware that he was bleeding.

 

[awwwwwwwwwww]

now that Lux is no longer a golden god, can we finally agree that Hollow killed him too?

 

[za'kiss]

Lux lost, but I'm not booting him from my top 5 just because of one L. I need to see him take another battle and see if he can bounce back. Mook battles like 1.5 times every 5 years. He been training for this one for half a decade. Not to take away from his W, I'm just saying I'm not jumping on the bandwaggon just because he won a battle against Lux.

A nigga like Clips puts in that work night in and night out.

 

[aka40Cal]

speaking of Hollow vs Lux

 

[_Goldie_]

Nah, I still got Lux winning that. And Lux is still The Goat

 

[lookdude]

Lux out here lookin shakyyyyyy babyyyyyyyy

If he's gonna continue that same uplifting angle

Arsonal & Charle clips would serve him that ether

 

[illedout]

On a 2nd watch, that shit was a massacre. Hollow killed that nigga. That "hit a woman again" shit was bitch made tho. Joe let his emotions get the best of him, and Hollow seen it so he went for the gusto. U gotta have a poker face in battle rap. Hollow did better than what alot of mfs are saying.

Thank you my nigga.

I'm simply perplexed by those that think Hollow lost those first two rounds. His only truly terrible round was his third. He straight bodybagged the whole Shady Records commercialist invasion into battle rap though. He made a mockery of the whole thing and sealed the deal when he didn't come back to the stage at the end. The fact that the event was such a flop just makes his rounds more resonant.

Daylyt kind of did the same thing in his own way.

Quoted and goated..

 

[1of1]

Mook had bars IDK about this "dumb down" shit ppl are talking. He battled with more intelligence than "Pop" Lux. He did what Hollow set out to do in his own way and it was more effective. Mook is basically an effective debater and he had the advantage of knowing "Pop Lux" from Harlem.

C/S Loch, Ars and Mook controlled the crowd and did great on that big stage. I feel like Hollow and Lux did in their FIRST rounds.

Sidenote Lux had a "sideburns" bar that was fire.

 

[za'kiss]

Mook won, but IMO it was not a bodybag. On a different stage, Lux would've got a better reaction. Mook's third was on some etherous shit though.

 

[THIRDSUPREME]

Damn Mook...you aint have to do all that to him.

 

[scrapper1]

1) Honestly, the fact that the fans there were NOT fans of the culture and the horrible sound quality ruined Lux chances... Mook wasnt saying shit..hes just very slow nigga and bitch friendly (cool gun bars always win them type over).

2) Im sick of Daylyt's antics..a clown..he is hindering his shot at blowing up.. he could be one of the best but he is in love with being a fuck boy. His 3rd vs Rex is hands down the worst round in battle rap history.

3) Big T is no longer needed in battle rap as a performer.. do promo or something, fat boy..

4) Lux has a bad bitch.. (the woman that came on stage in the jeans with the blonde hair

I was there and had to re watch the shit how anyone say Hollow got the First round when the only the 112/Jodecie line and rest of yelling, corny movements and filler bars going at Rosenberg and Iovine is beyond me.

Joe kept it simple but factual

10:26 – “‘Cause we had an exchange on Twitter, I was disturbed some / You asked me where’s my last hit, nigga where’s your first one?” - Budden

10:24 – “To my lost fans, can’t figure what my aim is / Here I go again making another bitch famous” – Budden

10:22- "We could put up whatever he want wager, honestly for me it’s nothin’ major, this ain’t even a battle, it’s like a favor”

10:22 - “But I’m the underdog, in fact / well 200 grand for ten minutes of work? I don’t really see a loss in that”

Those punches anything harder than Hollow Spit that first round.

Agree with a lot of the above except Daylyt. That shit was supposed to be subversive. It's basically a "Fuck you" to this commercialized bullshit I felt.
