[@MYVRecords]

Gemini 3-0. 2nd was his best round but all three crazy. The glass shattering freestyle and the right to remain silent was highlights.

[@dogardrill8513]

Gemini will be the legend of dont flop undefeated, remember this comment he will only get better

[@stantheroyman]

The right to remain silent was bar of the battle

[@Slimblue32]

Gemini, for me, no doubt about it. Freestyling that glass smashing was very quick thinking and using that to shake the room. I'd of gone absolutely crazy if I witnessed that in the flesh 😆

[@3593997]

Gemini.....Now I wanna see Tony d Vs Gem

[@zeckchi0148]

"Left hook to shut him up and aright to remain silent". Man that bar was 🔥🔥🔥

Appreciate your work man, thank you for this

[@helloplopman]

If you actually really deep it, this is one of the most flawless battle rap performances from Gem! BARS ON BARS ON BARS, Schemes, Flow switch ups, Character assassination, Freestyles, even calls out Eurgh haha and then stakes his claim at why he’s the one to bring back Don’t Flop!10/10

The DF champion ring is a cool idea. Also, loving Ogmios' new look, with the beard. Hope he returns to battling at some point

Ogmios the legend!

I'm happy to see that Ogmios has descended from his tree of wisdom to partake. The contemplator, an absolute legend.

[@Slimblue32]

Great battle and thank you for the drop on Christmas day, really made cooking dinner more entertaining 😂. Well done Gem for the win. You've always been a problem. That second round was crazy Af. Well done Quil for giving your all as well. Good stuff Don't Flop

[@FionnMcCausland-cc4kj]

Absolute insanity. This is one of those battles that makes everyone step their game moving forward

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you!

[@DavidWood-ho9zw]

I think quill was good but for me performance don't mean shouting waving your hands about to try get the crowd on point, it means lack of confidence , if quill slows it down stands still connects with the crowd by performing his writtens better expressing there meaning I personally would of prefer it better, it's like he was nervous battling gemini, if it was boxing he was waisting his energy gas tank empty, where gemini to me was landing stood there calm and confident..

[@introspectah]

Exactly! You get it.

[@AU98_]

This shit was a movie. Gems freestyle shut the building down + Quills instant reaction was sick 😂 , good to see DF back back🔥🔥

[@Slademoses]

clearly orchestrated

[@Zwaaye]

Been around this battle rap shit for about 15 years now, been to so many events I can’t count, when Gem stepped onto the scene I thought he was a little overhyped but I can honestly say that 2nd round might be the best round of writing in UK battle rap history. Flawless

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you🙏🏽

[@user-ih2xg1qm9j]

The Macarena line - thank you so much 😂

[@yusuftary1553]

That glass shatter freestyle was one of the best moments in BR I think I've ever seen. For 99% of other battlers, that could have been critical and distracted them/made them stumble/possibly choke. But Gems quickness with that line was mindblowing. That is how a champion deals with those moments. Big up to Quill as well, he brought heat as per usual. But Gem had this battle on lock. Killer battle.

[@PremierBattles]

The Boys!

[@Gemin1_LDN]

The Gs dem!!

[@onlyonezlatan0934]

I can’t believe I’m not seeing more 3-0 comments. Gem absolutely smashed this. The clearest win I’ve seen since the Shuffle v Shotty battle. Crazy

[@hypelike52]

Gems dun his Dance flawless

[@rolypoly92]

Honestly Gem's first round would have won round 1 in 90% of battles but Quill was brilliant in round one. I think 2-1 Gem was right as Quill just took the first but by the end of round 2 you just knew where it was going 🔥 Gem is the best battle I've ever seen, so glad he's champ.

[@onlyonezlatan0934]

hearing the cameraman over the crowd and battlers put me off

I liked it, added to the movie for me

[@detectivejonesw]

This was closer on camera than in the room, but I still have to give it to Gem. 2 absolute killers. Agree with Reeverse's breakdown.

Hahaha this is a fight!! Ive been playing Gem, im in diamond formation!!

[@BelfastRobin]

Class to see this calibre back DF. Much love. That Shattered to Pieces flip is the best moment I've seen in any Battle Rap event in 20 years of watching. Insane. Gave me complete chills. Gem was going crazy all battle, never ever see this guy come close to losing. Much respect Quill too. Some heavy bars. Love that Gems right to remain silent bar too 🔥🔥

[@pfclouis77]

Been watching these lads for yeeeears and this was everything I hoped it to be. Gem's second might be one of my favourites rounds of all time. Shout out to the production values on this too!

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you bro

[@JackNobbledy]

Agree with the judges. Quill took the first but then Gem got the rest. In the room it felt like a clear 2-1, but on rewatch some of Quill’s bars hit so well. Both battlers absolutely smashed it though and I can’t wait to see where they each go from here!

[@metokmusic5458]

If it wasn’t for that stumble in the third I would hate to have to judge this battle

[@CharlieCoops]

Gem gets the responses from the rappers, like Soul did. Elite. It’s those two above everyone else in the UK.

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you

[@aeternusgaming8050]

Gem is HIM, one of the best in the UK for years and somehow getting better every battle. A performance like this could zip up any of America's hottest. 10/10

madness.. classic...salute to the league and battlers

[@jemelsmall3959]

Faaackin hell gemini is truly a different beast, incredible writer, that mid round freestyle was enough to win this alone, quill is good but he needs to calm it down a bit, overperfoming can have a negative effect on delivery, gets a bit cringey at times as well, find that balance, anyway good battle nonetheless

[@michaelcorleone7598]

Gemin1 is the F’in guy right now 👑🔥. He’d give any UK battle rapper a run for their money👌. Shout out to Quill on a great performance👏

[@TheTinoXL]

Sorry. I think you'll find Georgy Roots is that guy

[@johnsmith-xd9ul]

prbly the best battle iv seen ever. absolutely smashed it out the park by both MC's. I agree with most that Gem took it, but Quill has been my fave battle rapper for years and it was a good performance from him. DFAD back at it again.

[@lennard]

Sick battle. Gem got him but quill was hard and had some serious bars. I'd love to see gem vs tony d

[@poloutz]

Amazing watch. If all coming releases are of this high production, DF will be BACK BACK very soon. Rd 1 - Quill 10-9 (best round of battle) Rd 2 - Gem 10-9 (moment of battle with the glass flip) Rd 3 - Gem 10-8 (Gem won regardless but Quill's stumble cost him an extra point) Winner: Gemin1 29-27 on the scorecards. Best title match since Soul/Cee

I don’t like quill . At all. But FUCK ME LAD dropped some room shaking lines there didn’t ya 🔥🔥🔥

[@Nihaas]

really good battle, I think the stumble near the end hurt Quill a lot tho. Had him taking the 1st clear, thought the 2nd was debatable, and the 3rd had to go to Gem. Because Gem was cleaner, I give the 2nd to him at least on first watch. Looking forward to more big battles from DF though!

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you bro!

[@onlyonezlatan0934]

What are you on? 1st was Gem. You said 2nd was debatable? The shattered to pieces line won that alone. 3rd was also Gem it’s a 3-0 I don’t understand how people are putting this up for debate

This battle was unreal. I had Gemini winning 2-1 as well. He definitely deserved the win. But fucking ell the 2nd round was just absolutely mental from both of them. Gemini's 2nd round, AND Quill's 2nd round are both some of the best rounds I've ever fucking heard in my life mate.

[@Gemin1_LDN]

Thank you so much!

Sad for quill. Before the stumble he was setting up to steal this 2-1. Congrats to Gemz, deserved champ!

[@deanbyrne2932]

Both these lads were epic... what I love is that now the title is legitimate. Think about it Gem and Shox battle on Code Red was meant for DF. Gem took that so devastatingly. Quill steps in and is a more than worthy DF champ. These 2 had to happen to really solidify in my mind. Congrats the new champ but its one of these battles where the fans win hands down ! Enjoyed every second of this clash!!

[@mikeyplondon]

Great 3 rounds from both. Gem's mid second round flip shook the room. I wonder if that momentum led to Quill's third round minor choke. 2-1 Gem overall, I'd say.
