I eat, eat, eat, eat MCs... I eat Cal for lunch, his best bet's to bite my text as dinner Even the spreadsheet already has King Jehu next to *Winner* Expect rapers on the menu when you battle here I eat a Newcastle rapper washed down with NewCastle beer This tournament ends early for you though you might be skittish Cal's breaded, shredded and fried, your ego, shed it This title can't be yours, even you have said that you don't get it Most improved vs most rusty, come down from your summit When I drive rusty metal bars through your stomach You hungry?

Hot battle guys. Tight verse, Jehu. That Newcastle beer line was sick, for sure. Verse flowed well, some solid punches, decent personals. Didn't really like the 5th bar much. Kinda ended the verse on a low. That spreadsheet shit was pretty funny. Calibra, opener is a bit meh. Obv, I take personal offense to that too, haha, being 25 and all.... that aside, the verse was hot. Fat jokes aren't really amazing, but in the context its used, its a pretty good punch. Could possibly have been worded better, or the concept flipped up about the pregnancy, but yeah. After the 2 decent opening bars though, this verse just took off for me, that new castles court line was sick as fuck, easily the best punch in the battle imo. Henry VIII bar was nice, again, perhaps could have been put across differently. Punch loses a little edge because you're "like" a King, Jehu is a King..., but its whatever there. Plead the 5th shit is funny. Only works because of the relevance it has though, as generally, Battle Rank punches are shit.
This battle was mighty close. Both had hot punches, both had meh punches, but overall, I think Cal came a LITTLE harder, and a LITTLE more consistent. This battle can go either way though. Good shit.

KJ- Opener was a hot start to your verse...like tha dinner set-up and Winner line was a clever finish. Wasn't really feelin' tha next bar though. Thought it was kinda a filler line, with a little attempt at him. Nex one was funny though. That made me laugh. Next one was funny as well. Usin' that comment againts him was good. Tha closer I didn't like. It kinda went away from tha consistency in tha verse. I understand were you were goin' with it..but it didn't come off good IMO. Cal- Opener was also a good start for you. Clowin' him for bein' on a battle site...that was good. Again this was a good bar...fat jokes can be hit or miss, but I thought this one was a hit. I didn't like this next one however....tha jester jab was kinda cool, but tha rest of tha bar didn't do it for me. And too me tha next bar was kinda meh as well. I get tha King play, but was feelin' tha way it was set up or delivered. Closer was just alright for me...not too special in my eyes. Overall- This was a real close battle...but sayin' that I expected it to be better than it was. Outta tha five bars both had 2 or 3 that didn't really hit there mark IMO. I went over tha verses again and to me King Jehu had 1 more bar than Cal that actually hit decent. So King Jehu GMV

ffs jus wrote out the vote n lost it :((((((((((
k. jehu, first bar was funny didn like the second bar as a punch coz it was indirect but like the flow n the continuation of the metaphorical eatin of MCs that ran thru the verse, next bar was funny n not jus coz it was my joke, like the flow on the breaded/fried line, n the punch was funny, thought the closer was poor by ya own standerds though. cal, first 2 bars were funny and the 1st was dope, questlove/court thing was a lil off for me, i did like the henry bar but was indirect, same goes with the closer really. readin it thru i felt it was real close, the more i read it and nitpicked thru the bars there was only one winner, cal first 2 bars were hot, n the first was the best of the battle, but for more direct hits, jehu gmv |

sorry Jehu Nep an Mack i gotta disagree this was a hot battle KJ came hard reminded me of Dangerdooms track 'Sofa King' tho all tha eat rappers an stuff but i thought tha opener was good nice start but i kinda expected more after that,tha beer line was coolio prob your best bar imo wasnt realy realy tha closer,imo it did jus remind me of sofa king aint saying you bit anything it was jus a battle version of it imo nice verse wuda beat alotta people here,Cali i accually liked ya opener since it made me think 'I hope i aint doing that' lol so yea Pregnacy line was dope as hell imo prob one of tha best in tha battle,New-Castle line ehhh i see wat ya tried but you can/should do better sorta miss line i wuda came up with lol,(an that says it all),henry line was aite started to were off abit but closer was coolio too,close battle but i think Cal brought more to tha table i took it more serious
Vote- Cali' |

dunno.. wasnt a big fan of either verse..
king - closer wasnt great, opener was a little indirect... 5 hour wank had me laughin tho lol.. dont get it and newcastle beer where solid hits too... flowed nice, good layout, showed some class which i liked... but i thought this verse was here for the taking cal - first 2 bars coulda been merged into one... to be fair, him being fat doesnt have much to do with the pregnency lol, i can see the connection/play.... but its not very strong like lucky said, some fat jokes work... dont think this did... basically just calling him fat, first bar was okay, but he hasnt been all that active the past 2/3/4 years... so dont see that stinging too much either... again 3rd and 4th bar may have been merged into one... jester is funny, but doesnt hit too hard.. as is henry viii play..... its alright, but not setting the battle on fire.. close isnt a hit either.. get the idea.. but has no impact imo.. cal dropped a below average verse... very surprised as hes a talented battler, definately seen this as one sided contest, but king dropped a sound enough verse, which was enough to take it.. both'd need to step it up whoever goes through... vote king..

King Jehu - First bar was nice, Newcastle beer line was good. 5 hour wanks was alright (never thought I'd type that). The title bar was a really good bar. Flow seemed off in the last bar for me. I've never seen anything from you but I thought this was a good battle verse, the title bar being the best. Not the greatest battle but I think King Jehu took this with his opener and the title bar. |

Im gone hafta give my vote to King Jehu..
Both verses were hot but I honestly enjoyed the personnels a bit more and thought his punches were well thought up and delivered. Your 1st bar was fire.. The only thing I really didnt care for was the end. I felt it was choppy but overall good shit.. Calibra you had good shit as well. I enjoyed.. For sickness he's Not Guilty, I drop legal ether scripts If you judges ask to see the bitch.... I'll just plead the 5th! You closer was cool but I enjoyed Jehus verse a bit more Tough Battle fellas.. MVGT-KING JEHU |
