This vote has been accepted by a moderator. I choose SELF here,when he wrote The Pinnocchio Complex it blew me away,without needing a link or revisiting the actual post, I still remember this piece,the other thing is he is so constant too,I actually look out for his alias when viewing in the OM section,creation at it's worst and finest,I also before the polls nominated CHAIN's Be Like Bill,which was equally ripe too,but the Pinnocchio Complex stuck with me..peace. |

This vote has been accepted by a moderator. The lack of Endeezy is astonishing here, shit! Anyway, I voted Alice because of the reasons I previously stated. The poetry and metaphors are insane. It's a piece which makes you think. |

@Endeavor: Yeah, Im surprised our "The Watcher & The Prophet" collab didn't make it.
I gotta toss my vote to Sammy on this one. Conceptually it was one of the most creative drops I ever read and his execution was incredible, plus every word carried weight. From the moment I read it until now that verse left/leaves me in astonishment. Vote -- The Warrior |

I voted for Sammy's "The Warrior!"
The reason I voted for his open mic was because in my opinion that was the hardest open mic I've read..... The creativity was ill and as he wrote the verse i could picture the image of warriors in battle inside my mind..... Sammy painted vivid pictures throughout the entire open mic.... The flow stayed on point and just everything about "The Warrior" was dope..... It was an immaculate piece.... |

i voted ,,,,Exo's Forever isn't real,,,for the raw emotion and the ability to bring a story to life
the content and imagery were just the icing on the cake ,the rhyme schemes and the level of skill made it flow effortlessly

exo must be checking this thing and dying a little bit every day.... im voting for him, that piece he wrote about the couple and the guy and whatever it was that happened and some type of twist I think at the end... now that was memorable.
no really tho, this has been one of the most memorable piece that vie read.
