Alright, before i left for a bit, when battling i used to be criticized about not using research in my verses along with stayin away from self hyping. Now it seems this is allowed in most battles so far. Maybe its just me but i guess im going to ask for advice. I feel like i have the right idea but am not excelling at getting the point out. Could anybody let me know where i am going wrong. Use this verse as an example. It was my first tag battle and i would like to know how to improve the drop. Thanks in advance.
They are no big guns, watch us bring down their 'reign'(rain) like its bad weather
sleeping on me and axy just results into these kickbacks not getting together We got the one shot we needed but we brought enough rounds to take out an Empire Got arthur lined up in the sights, but this point aint no blank we brought the live fire You gonna eat a whole clip, open your mouth and let the rocker unload in your face Let the D/A , just state that you fucked with some white cops and they’ll throw out the case And Trizzy, your pic looks like a black gomer pile from full metal jacket With a full of shit G-look and face that says I just took a nasty ass laxative Tre rarey battled any vet, he's tryna hide under the high win percentile And we only see arthur on field to clean it, this guy is practically phenyl Yeah that was a little cold but fuck its on track so its public information Let my boy axe start choppin this ass tre without an authurs illustration |

The question marks arent just what i'm asking myself when reading its what you should be asking your self. Alot of the time a bar is like a story, be cohesive and the idea it is building up to something.

As I've said in my vote. Throughout the battle you guys certainly had good angles. It was just the execution which made the angles not pop off that much. Regarding Tre, you can actually find some decent SHIT about him due to past battles. Just a matter of looking!

take your first line...your saying that your opponents aren't high calibre, so you're going to end them. you then add that if they sleep on you it'll result in something bad for them. ..but here i didn't quite get what you meant. ..are we talking about the low calibre guns from earlier? so keep in mind this is supposed to be the punch that you have building toward. any confusion leads to it not landing or landing weakly.
in these cases, when i edit i ask myself whether my point is clear. i then try to rework it until i arrive at something i like. i also like to make sure that my setup and punch work together. now some people like to punch with each line. .but there has to be links or conceptual tie ins in the progression. |
