Despite squaring off against each other this round, efemjay says that he and his opponent Einstein are not “banging heads.” Why? Because Einstein is not on his level; figuratively speaking. Einstein is “only waist high,” at the level of efemjay’s genitals. This is convenient because efemjay says that Einstein likes to give men oral sex.

Here efemjay says he will overcome what he perceives as bias on the part of the judges by “decoding the Matrix” – by shattering the false reality that has them thinking his verses have been anything less than great.

In doing so, he compares himself to The Matrix character Morpheus, played by African-American actor Laurence Fishburn. efemjay is “the white Morpheus.” He’s “on the block slanging reds” – Red Pills, which are the opposite of the previously mentioned Blue Pills. The Red Pill awakens its user to the true nature of reality.

efemjay was ranked #15 of the 63 rappers who submitted Round 1 entries. He then advanced past the #18 seed in Round 2, with four judges voting for him and one inexplicably abstaining. Two judges gave feedback on the contest and said that it was very close. efemjay vehemently disagrees – see the entries posted below. In Round 3, he feels that the judges are biased against him for some unknown reason and he will likely lose this round even if he has the superior verse.
