Obviously not the same spot but I thought it'd be a cool thing to reference anyway.

Sick shit DETRI_MENTAL m/

gb Tripp5 that was hot as fk 

nice battle 

This was a dope battle, it's crazy how you thought alike and went with the faster flow. Tbh you both sounded equally smooth on the beat! This could definitely go either way but my decision was based off preference of sound. Good shit fellas! Good luck to the winner!

LOD!

At the risk of sounding biased, I won't vote; however, I do need to express my awe at Tripp5' talent, once again. I would call your lyricism a gift if I didn't know how hard you'd worked at it for more than a decade. Your opponent had some pretty sick bars, but for whatever it's worth, Tripp5, it's no surprise you do 100% of the heavy lifting in your band. This blew me away. 

Dope shit. No long expo both flowed exceptionally. I really enjoyed the listen i gotta go mental on this he was just really structured well with some heavy shots strung back to back. Settle a square like a guy does patios was dope af imo. Dimagio, bottlenose just some really well thought out concepts. that flow was gritty too. TRIPP5 did well flow wise and a couple lines i fucked wit like 2 birds line and lush 1 lines but the rest was a tad basic in comparison to mentals. Still much RESPECT for both posting and putting on a great show! Fairs in

square set like a man gets patios damm

sick battle super close could go either way goood luck to both 

tripp just got a style dude is serious went off great job tripp not even close 

Both gave great performance and can flow real well. I thought one brought more complex set up with punches and was unpredictable on the mic

ok i thought i was gonna vote on a few battles today after this one i think i am done for the day lol esp after detri's verse lol also i'll have what he been smoking btw. 

Tripps the flow was immaculate to say the least some places made me feel like i was listenin to some mainstream banger or some shit, the recording quality hurt a little other than that the content was good in a few spots but you gotta work on your consistency. Detri always told a how i like the horrorcore thingy and your cadence as well would suggest you try few other angles as well coz currently u really bringing in that complex lyricism which sometimes goes a wee bit overboard lol nah i mean? also at this level now ur gonna be facing competition where u gotta spit verses aimed specifically at ur opponent as well along with personals. the mosaic bit was mad impresive tho as was the rigormortis line from tripps.

i think overall i got detri edging this.

With a better mic and a bit of work on the punchline side TRIPP is gonna be a problem. Unfortunately he picked a crew that doesn't get what punches are. Regardless, rapping wise this was really dope. Insanely good knowledge of what words are going to sound good together. Not that I'm comparing, but it's that 2pac style of words weaving together. Dope, and the speed gave you plenty of lines to spit.

DETRI, this was really dope too and you had the punching side down solid. I think you have some issues with pronunciations sometimes and some things are a little lost in the rapping.

This was REALLY close. Both can rap, but I think TRIPP is another level above in actual sound and rapping knowledge. However this is a battle, and I think DETRI brought more to the table to actually get after this opponent with conventional punchlines.

Razor close, but I edge DETRI just on battle knowledge.

This was a nice battle. Both brought some nice flowing pieces and some bars. One has more and stronger punches than the other. Fairs in, best of luck to whoever goes through.
