Shotty 2-1. Tony D 3rd was magnificent. Shotty 1st was great writing.

[@SDoGx54]

FPtube Yeah that's why he choked slightly a few times and shotty didn't at all. Shotty has more quickness and is more fluent with his shit and their bars are equal intelligence level. Shotty won.

Round 1 and 3 were debatable (round 3 not as much Tony went in), but I would give round 3 to tony quite easily and round 1 to Shotty. It came down to round 2 and Tony was weak that round probably his weakest. Tony stumbled quite a bit and his delivery wasn't as good as Shotty's. Round 1- Shotty Round 2- Shotty Round 3- Tony Insane battle.

Shotty won. Tony was all over the place AND he choked? You guys give this dude too much credit. He is fire but not fire enough to disregard his blatant disregard for the craft. Ppl are quick to say he won although his bars weren't even NEARLY As potent as Shotty's. Stop Sleeping on Shotty and listen to the bars or just stop pretending to make an educated judgment when your judgment wasn't very educated to begin with. Can't even be a judgment really. More like prejudging (prejudice, biasness) or prediction. Y'all are doin too much

Round 1 seems to be the most debatable round, I reckon Shotty took that round.

[@AppCandy]

MJ PS on my comment you said you didnt care if tony got round one... so why you on here saying this? and rounds dont matter regardless.. some flawed judging. tony wins overall

[@mjps1811]

AssCandid I think round 1 can go either way, but imo I think Shotts took it. Overall Shotty took it anyway he was more consistent. Shotty had 3 good rounds. Tony had 1 good one, one great one and a weak one.

[@AppCandy]

MJ PS no.

[@ZuvioxArts]

all these people saying shotty won.. you're bias. I came here knowing and hoping shotty will kill tony... but after removing all bias from my opinion. i had to give it to tony... ill give the first round to shotty just because of the sick come back round... but round 2 and 3 were tony d.. he addressed more personals than shotty, he also rebuttled shottys 3rd which shut it all down...tony d 2-1... thats taking every bar into account.. and before i get people saying i dont understand the bars.. i understoood EVERYTHING.. ive watched this more than 20 times over the past 2 months... ( bought the PPV).... trust.. the more you watch it and the more you remove the bias from wanting shotty to win, you'll realise that tony won. 2-1

Agreed.

SledgehammerEditing Yeah 100% agree with you. Round 1 is really up to who you liked most. I gave it to Shotty. Overall I think Shotty took it anyway because all three of his round were great. Tony was very on and off. Round 1 was good round 2 was meh and round 3 was outstanding while Shotty was more consistent.

Where you been bro lol

[@nottaproblemuk9485]

I’ve watched this so many times, and every time I watch it, I change my mind about who I thought took it. So I went full nerd (never go full nerd), and got the pen and pad out to judge it round by round. I won’t go fully into it bar for bar or in terms of points, but I’ll just let you know how I ended up calling it... Round 1: I have Shotty taking this fairly comfortably. Both battlers delivered great rounds, but this round had some of Shotty’s strongest bars, and was probably Tony’s weakest round - yet it was still a dope round from him which goes to demonstrate how high the standards were from both battlers in this battle. Round 2: I have this down as the closest round of the entire battle, and it was also the decisive round of the battle. After judging it, bar for bar, I narrowly edged it to Shotty. There was really almost nothing in it, and I think that if Tony had just spat one extra bar that was dope, he could’ve won this round. I honestly wouldn’t have any complaints if someone else gave this round to Tony, but for me Shotty edged it. Round 3: Even though Shotty lost a bit of momentum, he brought it back with some freestyle bars that definitely landed. It was probably his weakest round, but as with Tony’s first, it was still dope. I had Tony’s third as being the best round of the entire battle, from either battler. He totally diffused two of Shotty’s angles about being a bad Father and not battling overseas, with his rebuttal, and then went on to deliver one of my favourite battle rap rounds of all time. Pure fire. He won this round by a bigger margin than Shotty won by in either of the first two, but unfortunately I already had him as losing the first two so it wasn’t quite enough in the end. To people saying that there was a clear winner, or that it was easy to judge - it really wasn’t, in terms of how close the second round was. Rounds 1 and 3 were fairly simple to judge, but the battle as a whole wasn’t as there was virtually nothing between them in the second. Essay over. Such a great battle, and one of the best ever in Don’t Flop.

[@jamesbailey4211]

I am such a fan of shotty but if you count punches as it is a battle I give Tony the win I really do. I also feel shotty threw his last round away the whole scheme wasn't relevant

[@walwin]

Damn, this was some serious effort bro 💯

[@jtgardiner92]

Agree with almost everything you said. But I personally just edge the second round to Tony. 1st and 3rd are pretty clear who won, but think Tony just about did enough in the second

Sorry what language do you guys speak? English yeah that's right.

[@terra2805]

Great battle, i'd give it to Tony but not by much. What was with Shotty mimicking Daylyt's style and delivery in parts of his rounds? I think parts of Shotties wordplay sounded corny and he started to sound like a url/smack rapper at times. I really rated Shotty from day one and i still do. There's no question that he's one of the best in the UK but since he had that spat with Eurgh and fucked off to KOTD he seems to have let his ego get the better of him. Don't get me wrong I'm all for confidence which you need in battle rap of course but Shotty just seems like he's let it all go to his head a little too much. Still glad he's back in DF though.

I wanted Shotty to win. He did have some nicer bars overall (pupils/arms, tony kroos, buruckus/mr t e.t.c) and is more applicable to the American scene but Tony won this one on personals and the story. A story you wouldn't particularly care for if you're American. Tony won the first round based on the Mancity bars that were far more personal than Shottys and talking about the ducking (You cant duck someone...then comeback all prepared like nothing has happened). Shotty took the 2nd based on bars but they were both kinda weak that round. Tony CLEARLY takes the 3rd round because Shotty is spitting complete bollocks about Tony (you can't win on bars if you're actually making no sense): and he flips the kids part....the biological/napalm wordplay was alright but that bar about the bartender was the hayemaker...even 'ruining shotz like im photobombing' was just nice. Then he ends by killing Shotty on pure effort level as Shotty says this is his life.... I want Tony's title gone as much as the next man...even he is bored of this shit now....but someone gotta kill him convincingly.

[@jonathanrowlands9101]

Round 1: Shotty Round 2: Shotty Round 3: Shotty because Tony choked a bit. Shotty got the 3-0 but it was not a body, Shotty edged every round barely. Tony D came a little weak but nonetheless, this was a classic battle. And everyone has different opinions and Tony could have edged a round but I didn't really hear it. I think Tony will be a great star if he had a bit more aggression and delivery.

I understand that you think Tony got the 3rd and maybe he did but you do not need to wig out like that. Relax and have fun. Thats what music and this community is about.

Round 1: Shotty Horroh Some said I wasn't gonna show up Well that's what the talk was about But I showed up to the showdown To show off when the show's on for all of the crowd The giant was asleep, silently in peace I advised him to move quietly and sneak beside me but try and be discreet Because if I wake, there'll be wakes, and I'm no longer tired in the sheets You woke Goliath just as it was time for him to eat and climb into his seat The king, the new chapter, I move faster, I put aside my pride so my pride can get a feast Fuck your stripes, you tigers seem like new-timers trying to compete I thought you were the main man, all that raw talk and you're just lyin' through your teeth Ken Carson 'Freestyle 2' Official Lyrics & Meaning | Verified Oh this is what you waited for, me and you waging war On a stage for the sake of talk, so let's make 'em talk It's unfair, you've been scared, since the day started taking course I've plagued his thoughts, but I'm not here to take your title Tony... I'm here to take your corpse See, it was the real deal when Real Deal said to give Tony a Tony Award But I got me some rhymes that'll leave him hospitalised I came to give Tony a ward Class in session The ruler's back with straight lines with drastic measures Your casket's measured, practice makes perfect But I've practised to the point where I'm past perfection I'm just battling my past perfections They say practice what you preach But I don't preach, you can ask the reverend It's been a minute since I asked for blessings in my last confession I don't preach, I teach, and I've got pupils that'll look you in your pupils And raise arms like they're asking questions, but they don't ask me questions You need to give a man of my class room... stay back like you have detention You can't take away from Ad I taught Math a lesson I'm unschoolable They haven't given Ad a lesson since adolescence! Test me and fail, F your circle, you won't pass the papers I'll smoke him - pass the papers Fuck dough, it's linguine linguistics - pasta papers I'm trying to give my nation dough, my donation to battle rap is past Eurgh's papers Time to pay your pastor papers You're about to be baptised with bars So don't whine when the pastor passed the wafers Tony D's dead, you want to know what he passed away for I'm the predator, he's the same as when you ask your saviour for a massive favour And when prey meets predator, that's just nature But, holy shoulder blades - God's back You are not martyrs - I said - you do not matter It's got like if you're godlike I'm God's father's godfather Since I left, I've been streaming it Rowan It seems it's upstream that you're rowin' And you haven't got farther You put Shuffle and Marlo-on but couldn't brand dough So you brought back the Godfather And I couldn't bear it it's tragic That tear in the fabric is something I'll patch, he knows Al Pacino, I'm on my Tony shit Montana, not Tony as in this older prick Who defends a title that don't exist, I'm over pissed I'll film a porno of your only chick just to show you it I mean I'll make your bitch wail and we can see your baby Moby dicked Jesus faeces - holy shit I'll make a guitar plectrum from your skull if there's a bone to pick Try handle bars and die like Hogan's lip I've got a boot, I turned sideways, I rock jabronis with You hyped with your mouth, I'm at the side of your house (ssh) - right where Smokey shits Snub nose in my scruff clothes, eat shorts like Homer's kid Who was last seen in Tony's crib Looking like Scarface, in the last seen with Tony's crib That's my first round in, safe star blessed I've got two more rounds and plenty more space in my graveyard left [Round 1: Tony D] They said it wouldn't be a fair fight If I battled in Manny vers' Shotty I said I hear that Just means his people won't have that far to carry his body That's why I I'm standing here cocky You fucking with the wrong man This patch of stage, Islamic State Your head's coming off - on cam! God damn! This one I'm running wild So they gon' find this cat's head in a bag on Curry Mile I don't care if we in your home town and habitat And it's your first match back and you jammed it pack with your fans an that That ain't a handicap chap Cause the plan I hatch was to shrink the planets map Show that it exactly matches the same dimensions of this stage where we're standing at Now this is my world, you find the Tone right at home Yeah imagine that, I came to shake man's city like arab cash I used to battle rap on street, this more of a stage show Typical city fan, to get ate he had to move from the main road So that pedestal you put him on, I knock him off Swinging Ricky Hatton haymakers, these punches body Shotts You got your head on a chopping block If Tone acts like he in the swing of things.. Its well executed and your nogin's off Why is everybody gassing this bottlejob Cause you put that together, then I light him up rags That's a Molotov A lit match and petrol potion, this clash the next explosion Big flash, the breddah toasted Dispatch with said opponent Impact, the second row where Chins crack, heads are swollen Ribs smash, legs are broken Singed 'stache, his threads are smoking If you talking spitting raps This veteran goes and this chat just extra potent I step to you, run you, then keep it moving Bitch that's perpetual motion Don't let the brother front like he ain't already ducked me once The night I beat Def and cooked that turkey like Sunday lunch I was basking in my glory, till these pair of fucking mugs Got on stage, made the announcement and stole all my thunder!.. Cunts! He was cool for a couple months Couldn't stomach it got bubble guts and concocted some cover up About how he got sucker punched You said you were drunk and in a state and got your cousin or your mate Who by the way, MMA fighter - rumbles in a cage To punch you in the face If its the truth you're fucking waste If its a lie shotty horroh sorry its up there with the greats Its different level Its - "I did not have sexual relations with that woman" Bill Clinton - level Its - "They got weapons of mass destruction we gotta get em" - level Its - "Mark Duggan had a pistol so we had to hit him" - level Its lies... And it remind me of a movie The great white was the star of that jaw story Unconvincing like Spielberg's rubber shark But you know what done your dance? Let tony remind ya, when them shots fired at Shotts fired got Shotts fired Cause Rowan ain't like ya You got online, sand in your swollen vagina Fuck Don't Flop this, fuck Don't Flop that Couldn't keep the emotion inside ya We saw the King Of the Dot footage All your commotion been cyber You act worse on the web than Toby Maguire in his role as a spider Plus the bloke is a liar And the reason is absurd to me We didn't battle cause you wanted to earn a fee and Didn't wanna work for free If you would've said that from the jump we would have understood you perfectly Instead he committed purgery to save face when I know he's fake / I nose his fake, that's cosmetic surgery Why d'you do it Shotts? You really couldn't stop yourself? Well you see when you mek up them deh story You just look like a proper melt That's why I don't need to kill you cause you already topped yourself I don't need a crowd or a squad to help I sonned Adam from that dirt, he got bodied from that dirt Like I'm God himself

Round 2: Shotty Horroh Yo, After my verse he was like Quick, team huddle we need a rebuttle I'm in deep trouble Gemini, Help me scheme something that means double Locksmyth, I know you got a name flip or a theme coming and Mr 13... Nothing Poisonous Poets or E & Daniels, I break down both your groups I'm like the German manager reserving stamina I'll take out Tony Kroos It ain't a game, one line would split toe like shinobi shoes I'm not your friend, I'm the foe To, try I.D I'll snap in front of your face like a photo booth That means try with those heavy hands, its metal bands cause That will be your Death Tone You got writers block, I came to write on blocks I ain't talking bout your head stone You got a way with killing words, I got a way with killing rappers like Suge Knight and death row So give the lord salutes, or its auto-tune We'll give T-pain, and correct Tone There's levels to this shit Different zones the distance shows If this is race, I don't mean race We're just different Tone How are you still champ? You got beat off Ark, Def, Chris and Osh I don't see T in that picture, unless it's with Kermit but That's none of my business though You said you're a star on top with the presents Fuck all that christmas flow But you can kiss the game goodbye when you're under this missile, Toe If we don't believe him, we question marks like Riddler's clothes They'll get the bam bam before we deuce We're too bigelow Bam bam, deuce, two bigelows Give me dough, I'll cut his mouth The docs are gonna need to give him a new cheek They said, Wyclef [?] I said I did it for a few g's Tone watch your tone cause if Toe squeeze in pumps Its new sneaks Stamp him like hot irons I'm branding old man like Bruce Lee, that's too deep Cause Brandon's old man was Bruce Lee For this weird diva with his cheerleaders screaming "Tell 'em tony!" And he keeps them around cause against Real Deal He felt very lonely and he couldn't get his head in focus If he doesn't have the fellas coaching He'll end up choking But when he's with them The buzz goes to his head and the pheromones are replaced by serotonin and That made him forget who the king of this era Tone in But when I finish killing him Meet me at the bar you're all buying drinks for me I drink for free, if not there will be a bar raucous and I will not miss the T This knife ain't a joke, I be like why so serious if you give me cheek Act lemon and get iced if you're not gonna watch your lip then T But lets talk about the schemes he's thieving Charlie Clips told you he bites bars Him in and John John would make a mean allegiance I mean we seen this against Oshea You had that 'title snatch' scheme and it was seeming decent But Illmac said that to Bender Only he said 'title taken' and 'Liam Neeson' And if you say you didn't see it, chill that Cause you referenced that exact battle at Set the Standard When you went against Illmac, that's real rap (fuck him! Fuck him! Prick!) Lets have him broken up Lets focus on each component that makes Tony up As far as bars, he's a poor man's version of Chilla Jones' stuff That image [?] is the D-n-n-nons He loves Hollow so much he stole his look Mannerisms, well he strokes his nose as much As Loaded Lux - have you noticed much? That's why you choke like your opponents holding you in a cobra clutch Cause you watch Smack battles And clone them all it'll come across tryna pose like a phony fuck But we know what's up cause It's hard remembering your bars when you can't remember who you are T reckons he's T-rex He needs his little Dot Mobb caressing his ass When he's projecting his bars well Yo tell them they watch me catch this body Then go back and pretend you was hard Or I can watch them catch this body When I leave this little fucking prick dead in their arms Bruv, don't ever try stare me down You should know your 4 foot nothing likkle ass isn't man enough to Wear my crown Second round in, safe star bless I got two more rounds.. One more round and Plenty more space in that graveyard left Round 2: Tony D Jesus Christ I'm like the second coming This like premature ejaculation A lot of Shotty's fans hearts gon' be aching and breaking When he herb gets smoked early That's waking and baking Either lose or lose bad That's the ultimatum you facing Right now he wish he never been born He Matt Damon as Jason He was counting on that hometown bias hype, you know My rounds you quiet like church mouse on a silent night His rounds - even tthis filler is getting twice the hype You try catch the win by pulling strings That only working if you flying kites That's why you die tonight Unless he got an optician that rock with him Is the only way to test the I and I cause Out-rhyming man, No That's an impossible task You still spitting I'm course advanced I'm on swallowing bars so face it That gas and air like an oxygen mask You know it's lights out This just a Shott in the dark It's a message to his fans You tell them all to stop jocking He ain't sick, he fake it Like when you call your boss coughing (ahem, hello) You think he dope with a pen? Have you heard his version of Jump Around? Shit banging right like unloading a skeng No, reload and focus again and don't let this joker pretend That whole flow ain't stole from Grafh Roman's Revenge Now that's too hip hop for some of you But if you know, you know That's why this cowboy getting spun like a do-si-do His punchlines, meh he good for a multi though Check Tony bro And my wins vs losses Shotty I'm Christian Slater doing very bad things Each scene I plotted body after body Shotty And you nicer than me? What, cause you got more fans than me?... Naturally You actually pursue this for a salary This something I do 3 times a year on a Saturday You confusing talent with popularity and I ain't with that shit Shotts Not as long as Pharoahe Monch ain't outselling Rick Ross You getting me pissed off I'll be clear about it too I'm like a bitter blind-man cause I don't wanna hear about them views Especially, since we're being truthful Shotts We'll attribute 80% of them views you got To the dark skin yout' with locks Who was rocking the gooners top The rest of your fan base considered lame Cause they between 12 and 15 And got 'MOSHteam' in their twitter name You getting slain, but they won't be okay with that They'll be the reason for that grey area When this white nose fade to black, I'm stating facts You can't live with me mate, I'm hitting the stage A class act - like a nativity play I'm booked for spitting them flames My English Lit, on fire I did the math Same direction but change course to drop science It's not the wisest move if he let his past battles fool him They elementary, university's for that real advanced schooling No, I said they elementary You need verse of T's for that real advanced schooling See I put him to the test They assess and then grade him But ask them what they say and then they mmm.. Change subject cause your art, history like cave paintings The ed you casing, private Schooling to the public you feel the tension I repeatedly wrote lines for punishment I'm tryna 3 rass nil your ass, still 2-1? Harsh deal, to a degree That's a pass still, No That's a parr still I long since graduated from your level fam I mean we the same school of thought But you following my lesson plan It's funny how this student and body is what the head had planned So if there's arms afoot You get tore so I won't leave you with a leg to stand All I knows is he just a next To lay waste at the veterans hands What I'm saying is this body gotta put him in a separate bag

Round 3: Shotty Horroh Me and you? Type to smoke the full bag and Drink the whole bottle But there's a difference g I have no kids to feed I am nobody's role model E & Daniels oh it's not a crew it's a mixture Of brew and elixir I'm not condoning that whole motto That's so hollow You'd rather do cyphers and drink with them guys that you link Than spend time with your kids And that's some shit I don't follow I can see it, mini-tony approaching you Happy and vibrant laughing and smiling Tryna climb up your lap when your rhyming Till you push him back and decline him like "Don't bother dad when his writing!" Cause it's all about the show You know, clash of titans You need to write raps and practice the titan You haven't got time to waste on your family surviving You're on a champion's diet but Try to respect this Tony Your kids can't eat title defences Tony ( I feel for them) Look at these infant's guardian its like an infant guarding 'em How do you think they feel, you keep disregarding For drinks and partying, shit's disheartening Bitch fix your fathering I can't let you praise him Cause he's about 30 with about 30 bouts and them man never paid him He just raps to be famous, this is about reputation News flash There comes a time when a man has to hold up his hands and actually say that hasn't actually made it This is no longer just your time you're passing and wasting You need to be bringing back rashers of bacon For the clan you created You want them kids to say "No, my dad is the greatest" But nah, they're gonna say the father was a talent that was wasted That frazzled out and faded He put all his time into battle rap, so daddy hadn't raised em The papi was the pavement Its a shame you're so shameless Alcoholism, skin has been aging Liver solidification and other symptoms it gave him They see their old man curled up by the sink till he's sick in the bason Twitching and shaking Their only Christmas wish is [?] Father of the year Arteries hardened through marijuana and the beer Sat lethargic on his rear He's probably on that cocaine ghost train And too charlie to be near A young man's crying for his father, but nothing farther than his ear Your spaced out, looking like bambi in the headlights And I'm the car that's startling the deer You and your peers appear to be stars cause you peer at the stars And live by that garbage that you hear Wake up, Bright lights! The valley in the clear Epiphany, your kids just need the father to be near cause Rap's not working, time you should quit Tone Your little family need ya... Go home to your kids Tone But let's talk about that press conference He said he didn't even want the title He had that little arrogant speech, all smiles flashing his teeth Talking about your gonna give it up after you and Unanymous meet You even said you wanted to drop it after the battle with Leese Fast and discreet, you get to immaculate streak and say you haven't been beat But you never wanted that title anyway You're just happy battling guys you can savage in 3 That title's your protection so you don't have to travel the map and compete With the international scene See the real deal is, that Real Deal shit is something you still reinact in your dreams So you'd rather stay here and get easy wins Than battle someone you actually class as elite But listen, you're 5 years older than man Tony And I'm 28! They said it's better late than ever are kid But that's very late! Yo, listen putting your fingers up, like a dumb kid That's a fucking shame You came to Manny tryna floss like the king In a wooden chain You're in Manny now are kid! Look about a bit Even though it is a fucking wooden chain I'll get Take Note Tox to rap it round his fist And punch him the fuck out it Look where you are sunshine Make sure not to stare me down If you're wearing a wooden chain of Jesus looking like a member of ACDC You're never gonna wear a crown And the funniest thing about this whole shit is I'm bodying the fuck out of ya And only Locksmyth thinks you've won Look at him screaming, screaming The only one that thinks you've won And he's screaming, he's screaming "Please Tony, let me drink your cum!" Yo, listen stop talking You talk pure bowel Why don't you take yourself off the stage And wipe your fucking sweaty head with that fucking dusty towel (I dare ya, you will get kidnapped in this city. I fucking dare ya) 2 months, a month whatever With this little midget dissing me I don't give a fuck, I done zipped him 3 nil And me and him made history Don't Flop bitch! Round 3: Tony D I told Locksmyth he would mention this And he's proving it true But if I got God's head hanging from my neck What the fuck I do to you? And furthermore You talking about my kids That's a different palaver Bruv, It was so contradictory How can I fly around the world battling, and then still do my bit as a father? Battle rappers expose bios, its logical I don't care, wars fair So I don't care what they write with the pen in they palm In battle rap, I expose biological warfare I don't care when I write, I'm penning nepalm Cyanide soliloquies, my breath got that death smell when I exhale Poison lines going over heads like chemtrails Agent Orange horror tour You wanted it you got a war It's too late to back out now Somebody lock the door Shock and awe I bring a holocaust to Shotty's door Bombs galore, rockets launch Blood guts and lotta gore I've exposed what's inside and I really show you Horrohcore He bitch made, that's his forte You see this diva act ain't staged He really play the broadway This Tony's award mate I win and he gotta know Its gon' be a real drag for man when I Rocky's horror show I didn't just come here to collect my check I'm strong-arming bars like a Flexed bicep They voyeuristic, they came to see a next guy's death If they stairwell they see it happen step-by-step It's your funeral, coffins made Reef, preachers on his way It's good you got your people close by They gonna wanna pray Play gangsta to win and die behind bars like Ronnie Kray He thought that he had it in the bag and was on his way Until this thriller jack it and he thinking But this ain't Shotty-Day, Mkay... Mkay But it's De Ja vu, to when I was jamming on blocks I mean, my lines popping so I'm breaking down and bagging up Shotts And speaking of it, every song's about the zoots rolled So if you check every date on Adam's calendar He's too stoned And it leads to a pattern in your battles Ask the kids in the crowd You know them bits that he forgets and starts dicking around It's like last orders, and the bartender's kicking you out You got a full pint on the table, you weren't quick enough in swigging it down How is that applicable now, you ain't figured it out? Bruv, they call time in your bars cause you can't finish a round But they say Tony choke so often So Tone won't stop him, I don't pose no problem I'm special move stunning like Stone Cold Austin Picture me, ruining Shotts like I'm photobombing I don't care who I'm facing, Tone hits the pen and Blacks out behind bars like the aryan nation I'm airing you Ace And its getting air to the nation You clearly the favourite Them gambler guys got burned for their money Cause that bet is like your comeback A poor return for the money You on your job? I'm on my boss shit I'm making you work for it, money Cause you said you live for this, so it's gotta be troubling Shotty You getting comfortably boddied, in your hometown By a middle-aged man who does this for a hobby Whether it's that Poisonous legacy Or the champion pedigree From this point on, certain guys will remember me Cause I saw off Shotty like I'm Modifying weaponry I won't fall victim to Shotty's gimmicks Of course there's always space in your graveyard You don't ever put no bodies in it Except for Tommy Villus but He's a little walley ain't'he? (I'm a monstrosity!!) At centre-stage I show you how to end the game That hole you dug for Tony will forever stay an empty grave But if you get to dwelling on it, and you get dismayed Console yourself with this thought You didn't kill me, but at least your rent was paid

Best battle ever. Tony D the best, Goat, Godfather and any other credit we can throw at him. Even now the guy still comes on the scene with a body to take away.

[@WoodySoul]

Locksmyth ruined Shotty's 3rd round for me and annoyed me throughout the battle! Fools like that shouldn't be let on stage where they can distract the emcees, especially with battles like this! Apart from that, it is a very debatable 2 - 1 win for Tony! Both killed it though and I'd imagine after a few more watches my opinion could easily change. Sets a whole new standard for UK battle rap.

Tony D 2-1, no doubt about it. I normally fucks with Shotty but "Holy shoulder blades...God's back!" and "Jesus faeces,holy shit!" have to be two of the worst lines I've ever heard a rapper/battler spit! Same with the pasta papers lines too,horrible....just horrible. I would have thought that someone with Shottys pen game would've understood how bad they were and scrubbed em out,but for some reason he left that shit in?? Everybody makes mistakes I suppose. Besides that,good battle.

[@DannyMoore29]

Rowgly You're incorrect.

[@James_Sutherland]

Looking at in a fair bit of detail, Shotty was more lyrical through most of it, but he's clearly altered his style to cater to international viewers now. Liked most of his bars far more though. Tony's swag won him the crowd a lot, and he had some genuinely fantastic bars, but so many reaches as well and a couple of schemes that were awful, like the school and "if there's arms afoot..." ones. While Shotty wasted most of his 3rd with that father angle (played out or what?), which I will admit Tony flipped fantastically, the whole easy wins thing is true, he's happy to just keep doing that and not really compete, when there are some guys in DF like Dialect/Cee Major/Ogmios who would debatably not beat Tony depending on opinion, but can easily compete on an international level, whereas Tony's happy to just battle once every few months in a title match and take an easy win, partly on bars, partly on crowd reaction and partly on E&D hype, and all his internationals I've seen he's not done great in apart from maybe Illmac. As much as I respect Tony as an MC I think it'd be nice if Unan took the title, he's consistently been one of the best in the league and he's been grinding for it since '09, he deserves that shit. And he faced down Diz and come out better as a result, something not many people can do. I appreciate Tony can't travel if he's a dad but DF should do him a solid and bring him in some competition every so often. It's like Pat Stay, he's happy to just battle to keep the chain on KOTD and do nothing else or whatever. At least a lot of URL dudes like DNA, Chilla, Clips and Arsonal, as well as Daylyt and a few West coast dudes are willing to travel almost anywhere to show why they're some of the best in the world. Whether Tony keeps his title or not, I think he should ask Eurgh for more international opponents to test his skill and to compete more often. However E&D truly annoy me as a crew. Finally, lol at Locksmyth looking like a proud girlfriend or something for most of it, and then saying that he'd 3-0 Shotty. Bruv, you couldn't edge one round against Enigma, you're wack as fuck. Stick to being Tony's sideman and stfu. Big up Gemini though, kid's got promise. May have rambled a bit but that's all my thoughts on the matter, Shotty 2-1. Can't deny Tony got the 3rd though.

***** First time I've ever seen a black gangster named Jacob. GTFOH

[@larrylered8848]

I agreed with most of what you said, you sounded like you new what you were talking about, I even agreed on the Locksmith comment,...but then you said Shotty 2-1,..BRUH! Im guessing your a fanboy. you must be, if you didn't recognise, every round Tony spat was personal and direct, with minimum filler. Shotty spat a lot of fillers, fucking excellent fillers at that but still fillers non-the-less, he is obviously a talented lyricists, no doubt, but this is a battle. and taking down your opponent (not just styling) is the objective, and Tony took him apart, with relevant subject matter, clever schemes, funny punches and stage presence and swag. Shotty showed off well, and just showcased his lyricism, Tony came for that W and got it. I give it to Tony 3-0, which technically is a body bag, but there where 2 close rounds.

[@Kevin-cm5kc]

I thought Tony took all 3 rounds comfortably. And BODIED the last round. And I'm a shotty horroh fan

[@Kyrotoz]

Shotty killed him first round. Your reasons for tony winning first?

[@TheMrjoebx8]

Shotty got round 1 tony got 2nd and 3rd easily

[@TheHoleDiggers]

Shotty EASILY took 1 & 2, but the third was one of his worst ever.

[@Kevin-cm5kc]

Syrotoz To be honest, i think shotty usually has quality punchlines but in this battle Tony was right about him having these rambling multis that don't really go anywhere. They were just anti-climactic.

[@drydz6097]

Crowd overhyped shotty so much. Yeah hes got bars but it was literally after every bar

Man alot of you need to watch this again if u really think tony won like shotty said 3 nil easy if tony won one round it 2ould be the 3rd but i dont think so i have watched this 3 times learn about the structure in shottys bars no one else in battle rap does that ever the build ups with every thing he is a lyrical monster SSHOTTY MAN IF YOU READ THIS BRING THAT SHIT BACK TO AMRRICA ON SMACK OR THE DOT U DUBB U KNOW THEY WOULD LOVE TO HAVE U tony d u got destroyed

[@doctorshemp98]

I gotta agree cos over here all they care about are personals and mum jokes, it's fucking dead. Shotty had the better bars, so i give him the win, idc if it was directed at him even tho most bars were. The only place where shotty's bars are appreciated are america and Canada. The reason uk battling isnt growing like kotd and smack is because you dont reward bars like they do in america, personals and saying shotty's a melt is not better than wordplay. Corny shit. tony got the 3rd but the fact that this public think he won shows battle rap in the uk is still in the grindtime days. shotty, unan, dialect, tali, gemini, soul and others would do well in the states..... maybe not unan but yeah

Doc Shemp how the fuck did shotty have better bars, when he was literally freestyling bullshit cause he didn't have three complete rounds. & how the hell are you talking about "mum jokes" when tony broke down everything about shotty in his 3rd? that you lost to a middle-aged man who does this as a hobby/ now you can pay your rent shit was grown-man-bars right there

[@302Hooligan]

Doc Shemp yeah man u actually said it better than man are u from the UK . Shotty has so much structure in his bars its crazy no one over here in am3rica spits like he does dont get me wrong im not sayin hes the best to do battle rap but he damn close i watched all his shit and his progression is crazy but i just hope he can keep it coming cause lots of battle rappers in amer7ca once they get lwike 15 or the like 20 battles under their belt they dont structure their rounds and bars as good and dont seem to hit as hard its like they get barred out and lose shit to say lol... but shotty has about 10 batles thats i know of and almost half if not more are class7cs so he needs to say fuck them pounds and com3 get these dollars in america . And thats another thing tony tried spitting bars about him doin it for m0ney and tony just doin it for fun but why else do it as much time as u can tell shotty puts into his bars it probaly is like a fill time job

[@302Hooligan]

sd g freestyling shotty realy well damn if he freestyled most of his rounds and came up with that off the top he whopped his ass even more u dumb fuck thats what battling was founded on spittting not writing u dip shit

[@samhenry6797]

You're crazy if you think Shotty won. I guarantee some of Tony's bars went over your head if you actually beleive that. The 3rd wasn't even close at all, Tony took it that clearly that it might have been enough to give him the battle anyway had he not already won a round... which he had

[@blakesimmons5130]

Shotty's third round was fucking insane! And the respect he shows for other rappers whilst they rap is admirable. If they get him, he admits it and just laughs with them. That's the kind of shit that rap battles are all about. Trying to be the best, but giving credit where it's due. No Kayne West shit.

[@UnclePhillyMyAss]

hahah what are you talking about kid, hes the worst on the globe for putting people off. Constantly interrupting cats and playing up. Its what makes him super unlikable.

[@ichabaudcraine2923]

He’s one of the most disrespectful I’ve seen, always gobbing off and mugging at people in his opponent’s rounds

[@BEARLIKESTRONG]

Thats why I messes with Don't Flop. Big Ups to both contenders for bringing the intensity as well as the respect.

The D after "Try I", makes no sense to me. Is it "The" homophone? Explain pls x

Shotty won but Tonys last round murdered Shotty like he was a serial killer outta a Horroh movie

Can someone explain the Lipton Tea bar. Act lemon and get ice if youre not gonna watch your lip-ton-tea. I get lipton is a brand of Ice Tea but whats the play on words - what does lip-don-tea, mean?

[@aldehyde9460]

I think it's supposed to be "if you're not gonna watch your lip then T", it's a reach for sure

[@Johnphilips1234]

@@aldehyde9460 oh that actually makes quite good sense and is a decent bar. Cheers for explaining

[@badlywornshoes]

It's been magnifent watching Shotty's meteoric rise from his first battle with Ars to becoming one of the most intellectual, poetic, percussively diverse and profound rappers of his day. Great mutual respect and comraderie at the end. The very essence of a great rap battle. I'd like to really thank Don't Flop for making all this shit happen.

For me this has to be the best battle in Don't Flop history. Pure class from both sides. Real bars, Real stories, real truth. This is top end of dont flop. Lunar C is on the other end. He's the best at taking the piss whereas Tony does this for life. I had it 2-1 shotty though

Why was shotty ripping of off lux so much this battle while tony was digging deep shotty had a bunch of meaningless punchlines but his flow was on point but still i think tony 3-0 that battle the crowd just wasnt giving him reaction because hes in shottys hometown ........

spot on, failed the lux personals vs calicoe style

[@RYMOGRAPHUM]

Definitely on my top 10 battles of all time, both went in.

[@Gemxni_]

crowd was dead as hell, didn't do this battle justice

[@WitherdSin]

No, the crowd held it down. That's what you want in a big clash like this.

[@chriskeighley417]

WitherdSin We certainly don't want a way over-hyped US crowd with Don Demarcos after every fucking bar, but they could have reacted to some of the clever bars. You know, if they had understood them.

[@Gemxni_]

last round of tony the crowd was died. he had fire bars and it went over their heads

[@WitherdSin]

***** You do have a fair point, but I'll stand by what I said. This is a title clash, one of the biggest battles DontFlop has had in a while. I'm usually all for crowd reactions but this time I'm glad the crowd stayed quiet, whether it be because they didn't understand the content or just because they wanted to listen. For me watching at home, it was a much better experience because I could appreciate the battle without having to hear the crowd being told to be quiet every 30 seconds. Also, crowd reactions can sway judgement, that's a fact. I think this way we will see the truest out-come possible when the votes are counted.

[@chriskeighley417]

Fair enough, and believe me, I hear where you coming from. I just think the bars deserved a little more recognition than they got.

[@SPACKlick]

1st round I edge to Shotty. Tone felt like he was struggling, warming up and it dragged. Shooty was pumped from the crowd and stacked it. 2nd round I edge to Shotty again. Shotty was a little off on this one, few mistakes, no killer bars but enjoyable. Tony had acouple great shots but a lot of misses and delivery was weak again. 3rd round clear Tony. Shotty was on fire at the start of this round but seemed to run out of bars by the end and the beef with Locksmith killed the round. Tony did a couple good flips to kick off and delivered some real blows. I'm torn, it's 2-1 Shotty, but Tony was probably better across the 3. That said I'd rather listen to Shotty's bars again than Tony's but it's mostly delivery.

[@dannybowey1043]

shotty horroh is just too clever. my god that first round ... i had to keep pausing and going back to those bars, so many hidden meanings behind what he says, Tony D's lines are alot more simple

[@dannybowey1043]

+Matthew M both great emcee's yeh. ive seen alot of battle rap now and for me shotty really stands out, and ive found that sometimes he doesnt get the reception he fully deserves from the crowd because they dont understand it or his accent if hes in America

[@jojavjo]

I've listened to this and other shotty battles at least 100 times and I'm still finding hidden meanings I've missed, the king of word play, the cleverest battler I've ever come across, none can fuck with the white boy

Am I the only one who is dissapointed by this Battle and expected way more? I like Shotty a lot, but this Battle was garbage... or is it just me

[@Toxicpot76]

I agree but more to the point of being disapointed with shotty. If tony wasn't as good as he was this would be way over hyped lol.

[@CopaBleyenhoek]

Toxicpot76 Yeah I totally agree man, Shotty really disapointed me a lot, but to be honest the battle was just Garbage.. Like for real for real I can't even front on both of them this was shit... All the waiting etc ... for what? Basic bars, and punchlines that were not all that..

After watching this for the millionth time i have to edge it to Tony D 2-1. Shotty got the first with the school/mafia scheme. Tony edged the second with the "real advanced schooling" scheme and a few more big bars. Tony bodied the 3rd. 2-1 Tony D
