South Central with one shoe on.
2. Math Hoffa, who not only witnessed a live
Dizaster, but also got jumped by one.
3. And of course, Dizaster who — despite setting
it off — lowered the bar to single white female
status. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

The Tentative Battle Rap Schedule
Kudos to the KOTD staff for initiating a real time
schedule of the battles. I don’t know if the battles
were on time, but I wish that all leagues follow suit.
The New Guard
Names like Dumbfounded, Satire and Reverse Live
have been replaced by names like DeadMan, Danny
Meyers and Rum Nitty. How GOOD is this? Only
time will tell.
The Forgotten Day One Peeps
Shouts to all the battle rappers who made their
presence known during Day One:
·
Young B the Future, coming at Lush and
Aspect One.
·
Shuffle T giving Carter Deems a ride into his
battle with Cutter. Carter came prepared with
not just jokes, but an “I Luv Catz” tattoo.
·
Props to Dre Vishiss,Yak and Automatic Ray.
·
Fredo and Ayem should have been on Day
Two, with their great performances.
Introducing, Marlo and Shuffle T
Perfect way to introduce them to the American
audience. S**t, they even ended the Don’t Flop vs.
KOTD feud with a peace treaty. GOOD stuff.
“I’ll be the nerd who ends up shooting the school
up.”
Illmac outclassed Verb — plain and simple. Verb did
have some bars, but they will be quickly forgotten
here, due to Illmac’s ongoing attacks.
Real Chilly Vacation Time
This time, Real Deal had a good reason to leave
Pittsburgh. He had an actual opponent waiting for
him at BOLA 5. “Chilla Jones vs. Real Deal” was
definitely a GOOD look.
Dead Man on Ice
Props to the DeadMan, but — “ICE”...
Bigg K’s On Deck
Bigg K keeping his momentum strong was a GOOD
look. Shouts out to Danny Myers.
New Shade of Red
O-Red — without the dreads — did his thing,
despite the crowd sleeping heavy on his content.
When Beards Attack
CausBagDan came out swinging and was a pretty
GOOD team.
Daylyt’s First Round vs. Clips’ Third Round
This battle will satisfy all who came. Day’s 1st > Clips
3rd > R.I.P Ski Mask.
Clips, The Peacemaker
Special shout to Clips, who attempted to keep people
off of Hoffa.
THE BAD
Transforming A Choke
O-Red had a second-round choke, which is always
BAD considering Red’s projection.
Danny’s Tribe
The face on Danny once Bigg K dropped that
