So they got me battlin’… a fuckin’ geek with colored letterin’
Slash… Fake Wayne, so Pain-hits is what I’m sendin’ him
Listen, man… All ya spits I think is a joke
That GFX battle made ya first Serious post
You’ll bicker and mope when you see ya option’s to hell
Ironic thing’s I’ve “had woods”, but he’s copped the few L’s (fuels)
Cause the dude’s failed horribly… all his hooks empty
No wonder “Kon” is "soft woods": That’s how he looks against me
G-father T’s was supposed him gangsta more (Haaaaa)
The best wood to handle beef is chopsticks, ask Senor (Never before seen! Fuck X Fade! )
Half hot fucka… Koopa rummaged a spark
I guess it’s true that people’s best writing comes from the heart
You never should START shit since you can’t CLOSE joints
Blank foreshadowed… “XFade will battle with No Point”
He’s ya'll smartest member, so keep him around, cause
Life ain’t a Toy Story, Woody comes without buzz

You can keep the title... I know who I be.

Could we keep the battle clean? (no need to duplicate shit)

uppin'..

This was sick as hell, could feel some proper tension like you really wanted it bad, was refreshing cos it came across as not just a battle so it made you follow it closer.

Woods, your verse was really tight, everyone knows what you can do obviously.
The "first spot" was a real low blow haha Loved it.
And another point, the mirror line was crazy, i read it the first time and it was worded so well that it kind of seemlessly went by. Then i went back to read it again, and i was like "Damn.." Sick stuff.

Ikon, you're obviously a big gun on here, so equally not surprised by how good your verse was.
Thought the opening was hard hitting, sure that Woods is used to it by now, but it always hurts when you get ripped through your favourite artist.
You did brilliantly to spin half the stuff that Woods chucked at you, the "wood" lines, i don't know if they have been used before, but they didn't seem played, and came across as original disses.
Just my personal opinion, but i thought the finish was a bit wierd 
I know the relevance of "woody" but after all these hard hitting personals and that, it just seemed a bit numbing to end with a Toy Story play. If you know what i mean, just felt like after all your good work it just came out of nowhere, and didn't sound as mature as the rest of the verse.    

In conclusion, i think what kind of won it for me in a really tight battle, was just the looseness of Woods'  verse. He almost sounded like he was playing with you and your crew, even his personals didn't sound angry, just kind of cocky, which comes across in an ego competition which is what a crew battle is surrounded by.
While there was some humour in Ikon's verse, you sounded more up tight, which in a way is understandable when you're going second and defending yourself against a ripping, but Woods came out of the battle still looking in control.

Tight stuff lads.

Vote= Woods 

Woods- Good opener, can see you were itching to drop first so you could use that lol...2nd bar was hot IMO...I thought the play and the relevance to him remixing Nas' songs made it much stronger...It could be a bit of a reach with the play but i liked it(seeing Nas/ seeing rejection)...Anyway, Resolution bar was coolio, simple and to the point...Bang good was cool also, not oh shit, but pretty solid because of how it all fits, not just some random wordplay...average to dope was really really tight, definitely your hardest bar...Next bar was very good too probably your 2nd best bar, lol @ the ouch in parenthesis...lmao @ your 7th bar, beautiful...Closer was arlight, a bit dissapointed with it as you seemed to rush it and just state it and reference it rather than work it into something much more slick...Oh well, still a tight verse, definitely can see this battle is the highlight of this crew battle...Overall, this was i think the first time you didn't use an Ikon nameplay and i think that made your verse much more direct and harder, some hard hits and some funny hits as you always like to mix in shots whether it's in the setup or actual punch...

Kon- Opener was hot as hell man...2nd bar was nice, maybe could've done a bit more with it, but it was solid nonetheless...Fuels was pretty hot, i thought the wording was pretty solid too, personal also so the fact that few L's/fuels is a little played it doesn't really matter since it connects with a strong personal of past victories over woody...Conifers bar had potential to be sick but i think the wording kind of messed it up..."kon is soft woods" mmm, doesn't seem right, definitely have to read that bar over to make sure your reading it right cause it seems like your saying your soft but the next part clears it up a bit, think that bar could've been deadly if worded to read more fluently like the rest of your verse...Chopstick was nasty...Koopa bar would've been hotter if the feed on that drop said it was one of his best but rather it says it was alright, but funny..So that hurt it a lot but it would've been killer if people told him it was his hottest drop in a while, etc....No point bar was hot, tight crew diss...Closer was, uhhh, hot if it hasn't been done before which i don't think it has cause you took a different approach to it, so yeah, it was a strong way to finish...Overall, I felt you had a nice balance of wood and crew shots and i liked the personal wordplay, some were really tight...Nice flow, smoothed wording(except for "gangsta more" lol, twas a nice setup tho anyway with the Godfatha T)...Tight verse and a hot battle...


This is easily the toughtest battle to vote on, the spotlight battle so to say...Woods had a tight verse...His standouts were the Mirror Nas, Average to Dope, destroyed you in a finals, and Bend over Bitch...Opener, Bang good, Resolutions were nice, but not oh shit...Closer could've been better and was probably the one bar i didn't like as a whole and thought you could've done a lot more with it...For Ikon, his standouts were Chopsticks, No Point, Opener, and Fuels...Closer and Serious bars were nice, not oh shit and here's where i think Woods edges it by a half a hair lol...I thought koopa and Conifers bars weren't as effective and could've been reworked..If conifers was worded to read more smoothly then i think Kon could've taken this battle cause that bar would've been bonkers...Intstead i think the difference came to the fact i felt Woods had one bar he need to rework/do away with/whatever/etc while i thought kon had two...Both had equal amounts of standout and nice bars so it was extremelly closer and a very tight battle, sorry for the long rant...I came here to vote for Kon after reading it a couple times days ago and i ended up changing my mind mid-vote for some reason, tight stuff guys...Can see this going both ways

V/Woods
