Wheres round 2?

Sho had a slick verse, i swear he was thinkin about me when he wrote that "Killa-Gram" line ... Winner came harder and that opener was nice, execution was good and shit hit harder ... fairs in ... BATS

Im not sure what you were going for Shodan but I really wasn't understanding your flow or your multies. None of your capped words rhymed, which is odd for you. And some of your bars were even run-on sentences. I re-read the verse to make sure I wasn't over or underthinking it but I could find your flow or anything. Saiyan's verse was a lot easier to follow, and this opener he “Noses Sneeze” I'm “WAVIN' THIS FLOWER POLLEN” and when I'm-Crowned-The-GOAT it's “Lights Out For Sho” like “STAGES WITH POWER PROBLEMS!!” was pretty nice, although the scheme is a bit played . And also the closer from Sai was nice.

Crazy that these are the battles on the hotlist these days. But I felt saiyan put more thought and effort into his bars. He had better multies that made his verse flow, and the opener was sick. I got the philosophy line, but I feel like 80 percent of others won't get it without an expo. Too complex. Shoulda brought it to us in a different way.

Think one went way lighter than usual here, his wordplay was nice in areas but lacked the smack that should come with it. The other had the advantage of going second an took advantage well with the nameplay. Wasn’t too keen on a couple jabs but overall I think there was enough to take it.
