I get paid, and wit all dat money, I can buy a bunch of double cheeseburgers and throw em at bitches.

Community + Breaking Bad = Two best things on TV.

@Elzzaw I agree somewhat, but I feel like material is worth at least half the battle, and Diaz and Rich were spitting bullshit. Also, the crowd was cheering for every dumbass rudimentary line that they said, but when Illmac and Thesaurus were spitting real relevant bars, everyone was all quiet.

@nessleezle I know. I just thought he edged it slightly. You also had very dope content, but certain things like the Thesaurus piggyback section didn't seem so original to me. That's just my opinion, though. I have mad respect for both of y'all, and I can't do what you guys are doing, so it's...

Wow. I've never seen something like that in my life. Neil is so good at telling stories in his poems. His performance is ridiculously convincing. God that was so good.

@AlanRLight This is slam poetry, which is a completely different genre with a much wider range than your definition of poetry. That's fine that you have those standards, but understand that most of us artists are also touchy about defining poetry - and getting tired of people claiming that every...

@eu4iatrance Damn I was hoping being stoned would make it better...I guess not.

@CrackSpittah I figured that out, but why? I mean they're both good, but they're definitely not (at least in my opinion) the best in the league.

This performance was much easier to understand than the finals one (acoustics were terrible at finals, even seeing it live). Now I can truly appreciate how amazing this piece is. Wow, just wow. so sickk.

@triple6crip lol no prob. I had to watch it a couple of times to make sure as well.

@lovelysnb UGH why don't you shutup? Like BritaniaANDPrussia said, the crowd (which I was a part of, having also performed in this bout) was not being obnoxious. The crowd reaction is a huge part of slam poetry, and it feeds into the poets energy. If you actually WENT poetry slam instead of c...

@nobi410 Please don't pray the tapes end up missing. I don't wanna deal with that shitty camerawork again. lol

@vebdaklu Lol my bad. That's what I thought at first, but wasn't sure cause it's hard to convey tone in a comment. We're on the same page then.

Supahot is a slightly worse version of Conceited. lol

@ddayfitness I was wondering the same thing, but I'm guessing whoever won that battle didn't wanna put up 1,500.

@LaymensLament What are you talking about? His whole second round was rebuttals.

Lush's lines were harder hitting, but F.L.O.'s were not, so that through them off.

I've been working on a poem about bullying for the last couple of weeks, and then I just watched this poem. Such a brilliant piece. I don't even know what to say. This is an inspiration.

Cortez won this. His material was better. However, in general Thesaurus is a much better battle rapper, and this battle don't mean shit against him.

Imma be honest, I don't think anyone was robbed. Real Deal and Fresco are dope, but they were lacking consistency. HFK and Charron were better practiced, more consistent, and they were able to make fun of themselves. I just thought they had a better performance.

Ah, Mahalo nui loa. You didn't suck at conveying that feeling, I just defaulted at defending myself, and didn't think about what you were actually saying. Thank you for clarifying, and I do agree that it is easy to talk about a problem, but the solution is still somewhere beyond everything that...

Two people who watched this must have felt that being born once wasn't enough.
