Considering doing some live battles, need help with image - Lets Beef

After watching some live battlers that were recommended to me in the thread I posted asking for such recommendations, I have come to realize that my original conclusion was correct: Live battlers are (mostly) simplistic trash. A few of them are decent. Maybe one or two are good. The rest are garbage.

I feel inspired to change this. I know that live battling offers an excellent platform to share my bars with the world; with money and fame motivating me, I feel like I could adapt to the stage and lyrically kill some of these fuckers. Before I can do that, though, I need to pick a name and an image; even if my bars are the best ever heard in a live battle (and they will be), a good image is a near-necessity for any celebrity. So I've come up with some names, as well as images to support them:

Hidden Hand: Craft a persona befitting an "enigma." Dress entirely in black clothes bought from TacticalGear, dye my hair black, wear thick(er than my real ones) glasses, etc. If it works out, people will be saying, "Who is this crazy mothafucker with insane bars?" If it doesn't, people will be saying, "What's up with this stupid faggot dressing up like a movie villain?" So it's a love-or-hate character.

Malkhut: Google the name if you don't recognize the reference. The image would be the same as for Hidden Hand.

Jeff de Rizzo: This name is just something I made up; it only works because it rolls off the tongue well. For the image on this one, I'd go for the opposite of the above: casual look, dressing in slightly oversized, moderately expensive clothes. The sandals would come with matching socks, and the baseball cap would be adjusted to a backwards position.
