Sparta:

fyi: i recently won the topical and tagteam titles (along with Point Blank for the latter) for the dynasty, it is said that ikons tagteam final verse (in which he said i had been poor since recruitment, for line 5) was substandard (ie, he choked)/jimi hendrix choked to death, his surname is hamilton, oliver cromwell (british leader in 1600s) banned games/sports, hes aka the sovereign/a sovereign is a ring-like artefact worn by meatheads, his voice in his audios is rather high


Yo, this MC's the shitest, to bring heat he'd need a lighter
Our team's bringing death to America like al-Qaeda fighters
Your rap problems can never be helped,
Kon a disappointment? I mean, who the fuck expected anything else?
I'm a weak member? But one that'll leave your rep slaughtered
And try to name the last Dynasty crown that I didn't get for ya,
Without me, ya set's poorer, you gotta admit that I'm right,
He said himself that he needs me to finish his fights!
I'll mutilate him as if he had a part in Hostel,
Getting rid of the US leader like Lee Harvey Oswald
Kon's no threat in a big fight, so I'll swiftly end this
He's the biggest choker I've seen since Jimi Hendrix
Therefore, this shit's over before it's begun,
'Cos I'll leave Hamilton crashing and burning, like this was Formula 1
Flow's floorin' ya, son, 'cos what you're dropping is tame
You can call me Oliver Cromwell how I'm abolishing Game
His rep'll dissolve from around him when I'm dissing this mug
Only time Sovereign does damage is on the fist of a thug
Kon, you should have ducked this, bro, it's like you're dying by choice
So it's a shame his chances of winning aren't quite as high as his voice...

i-Kontinue:

FYI
*Click Here. Read the first paragraph under History
**Tag team is a type of sexual activity
***Comedian Jimmy Kimmel hosted the recent Espy Awards
****Frank dissed Sparta recently, and they’ve collabed on as series of Open mics. When you’re open with someone, you’re being honest with them
*****Location: The bathroom floor
******Spartans participated in an Olympic sport where whoever could endure the most flogging (beating) would win


Everything else is common sense if you've been around on LA... Ask if ya don't catch somethin'

Haaaaaaaaaaaa.......

Bold mistake,
You can’t even WISH to hold ma weight…
You got captain ‘cus you’re skilled? Nah, it’s more like O was late!
Throwin’ hate in my direction with no definite force…
But you’re like Michigan... Sparta’s just the second resort…*
Settin’ the score for ya ’cus haven’t reached my status
Flarin' fags as Tag champs because they've experienced practice**
There ya have it, but you’re SWEARIN’ that you’ve finally made it
“The crew’s tips make you win”; You’re just Dynasty’s waitress
(win = money… breadwinner etc.)
This dike’s the fakest UK head to ever touch a pen
If “tactic was your strategy”, then why da FUCK ya battlin’?
Makes no sense ‘cus you’ve TRIED to hit ‘n ya fell
…This SP’s now all jokes, like I’M Jimmy Kimmel***
This kid isn’t real and we’ve all noticed it too
Believe Frank sayin’ you’re wack! He’s BEEN “Open” with you****
Honest and true words that this man is a joke
…Now he’ll watch me win with polls (poles), and I ain’t Allison Stokke
Not even close to me, and you’ll NEVER set beyond
Your location says enough… you’re MEANT TO get SHIT on*****
Texts’ peon’s takin’ notes until ALL his lessons took
…Researched and it made sense why Sparta’s ALWAYS gettin’ whooped!******

Sparta - opener is a bit of an obvious punch, would have liked to have seen something solid for the first punch,
but the flow was cool,3rd bar is hot, personals have been solid. Hamilton bar was Hoooooooot. real dopeness,
follow up bar was hot too, nice set of killer punches there, and again, the sov bar was hawt, 3 in a row. dope.
last bar is funny, not quite as hard hitting as the rest. All in all, a hot verse, 3 absolout killer punches in a
row, the flow throughout was dope and as i said the personals were strong. Hot verse.

Kon - like sparta, the opener was a bit poor. i mean, i see where the attraction is usin' somethin' like that
but it just doesnt work for me. second bar was better, hot punch, nice flow, nice set up too. tag punch seems a
little forced, if im honest, there was scope for something much better, and after reading the expos, i expected
something a lot hotter with a sexual punchline availiable. the waitress shit was nice, solid punch. after that,
the touch a pen / battlin shit was mehhhhh, to be honest it doesnt even rhyme, no matter how i try to stress
the syllas involved, and the punch itself was a bit lackluster. Gettin' involved with some nice wordplay with the
jimmy kemel line, and again, another solid punch. Frank punch was nice, not a killer punch, but worth its weight,
Haha @ Allison Stokke shit, that bitch is hot, and again the wordplay was nice, another consecutive solid punch
you got, location punch is awful really, its a shame since you seemed to be building a consistent verse, but is
a bit lame to be using that shit for punches, especially when the punch isnt effective. last bar wasnt too great
either. again, it just seems forced, and like your struggling to find the punches needed.

Overall - Dope battle, but i personally think Sparta got this. His verse was much more consistent, flowed
a lot better, and had the all important 3 killer punches. Ikon seemed like he was struggling to get the
words out that he needed, and it really showed in his verse towards the end. Kon came good in the middle
but the alpha and omega werent really good enough for someone of his stature within the site. Impressive
verses by both.

Fuck...another close battle...i gotta reread these..

Sparta: Opener was ok...didnt like the setup tho...disappointment line was tight tho...dynasty crown line was good but coulda been killer if reworded differently...finish fights lines was a tight personal...Oswald line was tight...Hendrix line was good...not a killer punch but stilll tight considering the "tag team incident" lol...Hamilton line was fuckin tight, killer punch...dope name play...Oiver Cromwell line was hot too...great flow, nice internal rhyme...ring line is ok...kinda a stretch for a punch but still good...good flow...closer was funny lmao...OVERALL: Dope verse...flow was really good...started of OK but really picked up nicely...GREAT nameplays and good personals...really hot verse
 
Ikon: Opener was funny...Michigan line was cool...the wording of it makes it harder than it is: last resort...great use of an OK nameplay...tag punch was ok...need rewording to be a great punch...waitress line was funny...nice punch...so far flow is really good...tactic line was funny...good transistional...Jimmy Kimmel line is dope...tight nameplay...Frank line is tight...Allison stokke line is tight haha...location bar is cool....good closer...Overall: tight verse....flow was great wit nice transisitonals...really good use of nameplays and a couple tight personals...
Tha Decision: This was the closest battle ive read so far...had to rereread them lol...fuck ive literally went back and forth on this but i gotta vote one....i thought sparta had 3 really tight original/creative punches and the rest was consistant...Game had a more aggressive verse which is more my style and slightly better flowing...Game's whole verse was consistant too...i think that Sparta had a really tight tight verse tho...VOTE: SPARTA
 
You guys are asshole for makin me vote these battles lol
