I watched Joe & Hollows interview, made me want to watch this one again. Budden states.... Hollow had trouble keeping up with Wurdz. As a genuine fan of this........ My opinion is, Hollow was way ahead in this battle. Wurdz is sick too, but the one thing that sometimes runs empty in the arena are, rebuttals. Hollow had that. Wurdz was sick to... I give it to Hollow tho. Damn, 5 years later this battle is still fire. Definite classic. Respect to both emcee's.

R1: Pass (best round of the battle & one of the best rapping displays ever in GT) R2: Pass (both were amazing, pass just had a few lines that hit harder) R3: Hollow (Pass's worst round of the battle, although it was still pretty damn good. Hollow's best round of the battle. Hollow wins the round by far) R4: Pass ( Hollow seemed to be spitting nonsense towards the end of the round; easily Hollow's worst round of the battle. Pass's "solid as a rock" line sealed the deal.) GOAT GT battle.

Uh huh. I must've said struck a nerve.I only mentioned name flips because you said "Pass mostly had bars he could've used against anybody". I'm not co-signing the name flip angle...but pointing out that name flips are more direct about your oponent. I endorse whatever I feel. Be it Grindtime...URL...UW...etc. If there's talent I'm cool with it. My authenticity has NOTHING to do with this discussion...which really let's me know my comment hit close to home.
@madclownace10 жыл бұрын
Your authenticity has everything to do with this argument. You tried to call me out on mine suggesting I was biased toward hollow, telling me I need to "be real when type". I gave you evidence on how hollow was clearly more versatile than just "name flips" and how you can't tell anyone to "be real" and now you're rushing into defense mode saying you "must've struck a nerve". That's what everyone says when they get stumped by logic.
@jerrellfinch119910 жыл бұрын
I never went against your "logic". You didn't stump me at all. If that were the case I wouldn't have responded. The "be real when you type" is me saying tell the complete truth. Not saying you were fake. I don't know what a "fake ass nigga" is. Every one is real. We all deal with some type of struggle. Not here to judge your authenticity. I don't care about you or anyone else enough to bring that into a rap battle comment. And my "rushing to defense mode"? I believe it took couple weeks for me to respond. So there's no rush. But I DEFINITELY will reply to someone so emotional about what I said.
