You Get A 30-Minute Verse...


Let’s take it back to the days when me and Chris was five…
We use to bully kids and rob little bitches dry…
Beat them up for their Barneys, I’ll admit the shit was nice…
Man we used to carry tools(the ones from Fisher price) :(…
Every 3 years we graduated, went from gum for cash…
To hitting middle school, and we were selling guns and hash..
School? Stay in this bitch? I debated the shit…
I had more education from profit of haze and the clips…
So I made it my wish, that didn’t have to stay in the bitch, Why?
Did I do that? Maan! I ended up staying in NY…
I played in the Stuy, for a while, and later the big crimes…
Got me way back in Virginia and straight wise…
I decided to do my shit on the wayside of Highland Park..
I heard there were no good suppliers and drug times were hard..
So I re-upped my status while trying to stay chill for a while…
But got famous for dope that would lead Jimi Hendrix to smile…
So my name got the spreading, my game got its legend…
One day on my porch, there was a lame with a message…
He was like 5’8 a buck forty with a blue hoody on…
Flashed the chrome, cocked it and said “You’re as good as gone”…
But I got pistol-whipped and little man said “I’ll go about my business…”
“Oh, this little message, the niggas Christ sent it…”
Then it started to add up, Christ was just Chris…
Trying to put me in check, since he’s the big guy on the strip…
I laughed denying the shit, but I end up facing him once more…
At the gunpowder-stained brick house with chipped paint from the front door…
Next day, with a knot on my dome, I asked a kid with the snottiest nose..
“Would you happen to know if Christ’s in his home?”
I started thanking the sucker and gave him a duckett…
And knew it was time for Chris to Adam Vinatieri the bucket…
Grabbed the 12 gauge and said fuck it, close the trunk on the ride…
And started loading with a smile on my face, the fucker inside…
But a bullet whizzed, and you know what? It chipped from my shoulder…
My vision was sobered and the shit had got colder…
Let the clips off to smolder, knock down a few heads like wack a mole…
Kick in the door like Chris Wallace, let bullets entrap his soul…
Pop shots like Dirt McGirt, against all odds like Shakur…
Size ‘em up like Big L and showed him God in the Fours…
Now I just know, it’s stalemate with pieces to each other…
I asked him “What’s this for? You should treat me like a brother…”
I saw an indifference and I knew he was gonna kill me…
Just turned my back and bullets went into my heart like feelings…

how cliche

GetPumpz (12:39:21 AM):

I got a story-today about one Nasir Jones and Cory-McKay, a tale of how
a magnificent relation-ship flopped, two hustlers that both flipped-rocks
the differences between the two big-shots and its significance on hip-hop
both left their mark forever, now to rap they better known as Nas and Cormega
but it’s a lot deeper then that, like Ill Will writing poems of the pals together

growing in Queens, flowing on the scenes, bestowing on fiends their poems and dreams
both looked to roll with teams, Cory was The Realness, would never snake his brethren
Nas placed his faith in the heaven, in the 80's was w/ a crew called the Devastatin' Seven
quite easily they was the hardest two, Nasir caught a break when he went Live at the Barbeque
started working with the Large Proffesor, while Cory caught a case for the grams he'd measure

but they kept in touch, Cory wrote letters to Nasir, told him tales of thugs, guns, and addicts
God's Son was flattered, replied back, dedicated "One Love" to him on his classic Illmatic
soon Cory came out and he was born anew, Nas seen this and proposed they form a crew
hence The Firm was created, soon success followed, but it bred jealousy and it disintegrated
the Nature of Nas and the ways he manipulated, formed a lot of hatred, no longer was their bond sacred

Cormega turned into a verbal spitter eternally bitter, like a son who seen his ex-father hit his mom
Nas ignored him, so he put out a Slick Response , no longer was it minor, now the shit was on
but they kept it in perspective, BIG's passing made the mood reflective, they kept their cool collective
both had a lot to offer, Nas was spitting The Message but Cormega was getting slept on like a narcoletic
the beef was hectic, the heat electric, both had flows of fire, then Nas proposed to Destroy and Rebuild
so Mega turned his Hustle Legal and rose like an Empire, but both of them are still plotting
will the beef ever be over ? well they have forgiven but not forgotten

what if the Apple wasn't Rotten ? couldn't they get together for the sake of hip hop man
did the prophecy come true when two decades ago KRS said The Bridge is Over
divided they are a Fallen Soldier, together raw like a vulture
Im speaking hypothetically, but imagine poetically them spitting about this sacred culture
it would restore the lost dignity, united they'd never sell out ya feeling me ?
ride together and out sell the whole fucking industry

perhaps again I hope they meet, they talk about Glory Days and put away the coke and beef
spritualize what materialized and spit dope to the streets (get it)
individually, each one is a dope emcee, and hopefully what I wrote they'll see
Queensbridge the biggest project in the world, but we all just people
they say the world a small place, and when they bump into each other, I hope so is their ego








GetPumpz (12:41:23 AM): done.........spectrum vs. d-illar........peace
GetPumpz (12:42:29 AM): time stamp

This was a tight battle... The Spectrum edited his verse though... blaaaaah. I'm assuming that's okay though.

Spectrum, not knowing you at all, I honestly thought you'd be a pushover. But it's obvious, I underestimated you. D, your verse was tight as well. I think your verse had a great feel in the beginning. Kinda reminded me of Ludacris' "Growing Pains". However, I'ma have to go with Spectrum on this one... some of the style, I was like "Ehh, what's the point in bolding that?" But aside from his weird formatting, his structure and flow seemed flawless. I just liked the way it came off better. Weird names too..... anyway, good battles. Whoever comes out of this as a winner, I think has an extremely good chance of winning this.

everything in bold is a reference to an real piece of work by that artist or a referal to a real event, person, crew. hope thats enough of an explanation, dont really get what 'weird names' your reffering to. private message me if you need further explanation so we dont flood the thread no more


thanks for the vote

topical to which I voted on

...vote...

Wow Tight battle

Dillar1-Your verse was fire I liked it because you create the whole scene the way you spit with different characters which i think was tight. Overall a nice verse

Spectrum-Your verse was also tight the multis and metas were on point and so was the flow although I think your topic was a little weaker than d illar 1s topic but well done.

I have to vote to D because I just think his verse was more on topic

I took that risk.....trying to come more creative and unique rather then spitting a cliche drug dealer story.


2 hated enemies who run their areas of the streets. explain how you came to power and what you would do to each other if you 2 ever met.

Nas and Cormega are 2 hated enemies
I explained how they came to power (stardom)
I explained their close connection between them
I hypothesized what would happen if they ever came together on terms




but whatever..........thanks for the vote, peace





1-1

damn i just had this big explaination and i accidently hit back and i lost it all

this was a nice topical...

flow: tie
multis: both had good....but illar got this
wordplay: nice here...tie
creativety: spec
topic: you both came on point on this...but spec due to his unique and unorthodox approach to it

this was a hard decision but it came down to creativety...

vote: spec
pz

decisions decisions....

this was very tough for me....

spec- you were nice...very nice...didnt quite like the structure but i did give you mad points for your creativity...it was different.....tryin somethin new is always good if youre nice with it ya know?...nice vocab and multis and it stayed on topic pretty well

illar...wow! that shit was seriously hott....you and spec....neck and neck in this one...but i like the way you went up through the whole childhood thing and broke it down into life intervals...nicely written peice here....nice multies....and very on topic....

very close-but imma have ta go with illar on this one....that was a hott battle though....and i agree with icon...whoever wins this will have a very good chance at winnin this tourney.....peesh

Very nice battle, D-iller, i liked your verse, you kept it consistent throughout, tha story was ok, nothing real astounding.

Spctrum, Very creative, ya took the topic and went into real depth with hip hop history itelf, i liked the way u had in key words, nicknames, albums etc.

Overall, i feel that spectrum took this battle, i wouldnt say easily because d-iller did have a challenging verse, but the whole nas - cormega really put tha finger on spec. I think that iller underestimated him alot, good verses from both though.

Damn...I came into this pretty much ready to vote for Illar...since I had never seen Spectrum b4...But after reading both....here's my breakdown...

Illar's I found easier to follow, but a little TOO simplistic at times...had some dope lines no doubt, just too much mediocrity mixed in...I felt it was inconsistent...It did come off a little too cliche to me, even tho he took that somewhat tired concept and executed it pretty well...

Spectrum...your verse stood out to me...rhyme scheme was irregular but it worked...I loved the way you approached this, thought you layed it out very nicely...big points for creativity on this shit...That wouldn't have meant much tho if it didn't come off as crisp and tight; which it did...

Vote = Spectrum, barely...good battle fellas...

....I have to admit...Spectrum took an interesting twist to this very cliche topic...Illar's verse was tight but i feel that some of the depth was lost when he began to become extremely synonymous with the topic and with the average delivery of the topic....this type of mediocrity is something that i do not expect from Illar.....I was expecting a bit more creativity and depth inside of Illar's story......that of which i found in Spec's verse.........there really isnt much to continue with but I feel that Spec took this due to the creativity and the depth that he went into within his verse....also due to the very original twist that he took............usually when doing historical shit some facts and what not get contorted........that was not the case here......

Nice battle.....but Illar...don't disappoint me again.......
