Heat Wave: HW Topical (Semi) - King Soul v Amgin

Waking up everyday, breaking stuff because these drugs are fake,

King Soul
Nigma

You truly are something when it comes to Topicals man. You have all the creative aspects completely nailed! Throughout, you provided fantastic descriptive lines and well analysed thoughts. You explain what your 'messed up' character is doing, and really go in-depth with it explaining why, what happens literally and backing up the imagery with really nicely worded metaphors. It made for a well-developed chatacter, and it's clear to me that you spent a lot of time and effort into making all that work and how much thought went into creating an atmosphere. 11 out of 10 when it comes to creativity.

Your verse was definitely not short of explanatory sentences! It made certain that I understood everything perfectly. However I wasn't sure whether this verse was about 'her' or 'you'. You sometimes talk about what she has done to you, and what you feel and think, but you are always describing her. Very descriptive and well-detailed, but I just couldn't grasp who the protagonist was and couldn't paint a real image of the character in terms of how I'd imagine them to be and who they are, as everything was either just 'her' or 'you'.

On the technical aspect, the flow was decent and the end rhymes were nice and consistent, however, and you added a nice twist to the flow, but a couple of lines seemed to fall off where the syllable count was a bit too divergent from the rest, and took out a bit of the smoothness from it. It was rough and edgy at times, but nothing to complain about and nothing that hurt the piece that much or at all for that matter.

The multis were astounding. You had an infinite supply of end multis and big internal rhymes, and kept it together with formidable coherency and consistency. Top marks there. It aided the flow so well, which was top-notch anyway. With nothing to fault, it flowed like water and none of anything like rhymes, syllable usage etcetera felt forced. Great stuff there.

While Nigma had the technical written schemes unmatched and pulled off so neatly, King Soul nailed it when it comes to story-telling and topical devices, and since this is a topical battle, that is the key component in a verse for this style of battle, which is why my vote goes to him.

But well done both of you.

King Soul is my pick to advance in-to the final, but good job Nigma anyway. All I'd suggest to you is try to focus more on getting those creative points than on big rhymes and the other technical side of things if you get what I mean.

This was very difficult to vote on tbh one of the hardest ever in my experience just fyi very close


KING: I think your choice of concept angle in the man's hate and resentment against women was an excellent way that you approached this battle. Your wording was intricit and had a deep epic meaningful appeal that made your piece a relatable,one. Your infrastructure rhymes were intricate and smoothly written and you conveyed the bitterness behind whom the narrative is trying to emulate from the character. Ver sinister approach and well written, nice job.

Fav bar
So I try to move on, my groove lost, everything feels new once the truth crossed,
I'm confused God, why do you toss out the muse when we can't consume loss?

I honestly just thought this dope and artistically beautiful to me and it stood out the most to me.

NIGMA:
Dam your imagery was fucking off the chain in your drop. It was dark and dripping with malice and spite. You delivered it eloquently fluently smoothly and artistically and reading it you can almost feel with the character the different emotions you we're trying to,portray here. Excelllent piece with a horrorcore type spice to the conceptual basis here. Nigma you have always been a very talented,imagery story teller as a forte,type of writer batteler and you,displayed it,here. Metaphors and multis all through out that had good concept and execution as well.

Fav bar:


so now i slum it out in a shameful waste making tons from her blackened ways
i'll just slumber out my days cause it's clear to me that she can't be tamed
flail my hands in blackness, i fail to grasp the masses and the crap they take
it's the same old fable, mask yourself and act insane for the chance of fame

This shit was just dope as FUCK.

Honestly I think that you both did s wonderful job and your pieces were wonderful but I just think due to it have just been a slightly better and higher advanced type drop that was just a level or two above the opponent

MVGT-NIGMA

Nigma wins 3-1 and advances to the final.
