I would hate to be judging the IsaiahG vs Kid Maestro match up and LockSmith vs TunesAtWork. Best of luck to everyone and can’t wait for next round.

QUAD SHADE with the comeback

Einstein has like the 8th verse in this competition where Socrates is mentioned, and I bet none of you even know who the fuck he is or what he’s done.

It’s cliche at best, now.

Gray if you’re stupid enough to assume I don’t know who Socrates is, you should be ashamed.

Quad shade snapped you’re flow was perfect to this beat man. Good shit.

I Kinda Feel Sorry For AlGray, Wasnt Much Of A Fair Contest

It’s a shame Luke couldn’t get around to making his, I always love reading the match-up reviews… :/

^ The good news is that you move to the next round. The bad news is you face Psyonik

I never thought I’d even make it this far, honestly. What everyone has heard are the first things I’ve put thought to and written/recorded. The competitive push is just an aide for motivation.

i personally think psy and zen will be a hard match to judge

My faves are Zen, Isaiah, and Lock. That is all.

Isaiah is dope for sure, but he has two glaringly obvious punch-ins in his verse. With Maestro coming as nice as he did, that’s enough for me to give the nod to Kiid. (No diss to Isaiah intended).

@em. lol saw the same.

Efemjay, only artists that record on a regular basis will know that a punch-in is. Most of the guys here aren’t well-versed in recording jargon, and are recording on some truly unorthodox shit. Ease up, dawg.

Lol I was readin that going who the fuck is he talking to. Thanks for the clarification efemjay

Here’s me rocking my favorite shirt:

@Nappy731…nice shirt, 2bad that’s all he may have left after this round. In the meantime you may wanna find you some matching pants to fit that TUNE! Lol

Zen Master Griff made Harry Potter references in hip hop cool

@Efemjay thanks for the feedback…but i was rapping so energetically that i couldnt hold breath

No doubt. You don’t need me to tell you your verse was ill. Kiid’s was too. Me personally, I give him the slight nod because of the punches, but you guys probably had the best two verses of the round, imo.

i hate praising myself so i dont like saying what my verse was ill or not…i just want feedback lol…so thanks

@Psyonik
Did you know shit about socrates before or after you skimmed through his wikipedia page?

P.S.
I’m more versatile and rounded, check my diameter
All you other niggas is rapping amatures
Whiny bitches, if I wrote that crap, I’d be insecure
Gimme a few years, and y'all be asking for my signature
Look at the goofs who you chose to administer
Who don’t bring up the fact that very entry sounds so similar
I mix it up, these judges votes needa be vetoed
Don’t mean shit being positively judged by twelve year olds

Go learn something. Help yourself understand why I’m better.

Socrates isn’t some kind of secret, you learn about that guy in like middle school. Psyonik seems like a smart dude, I’d be surprised if he didn’t know about Socrates. In fact, I’d be surprised if most people on this site didn’t know at least something about Socrates. Stop being so arrogant man, it’s not making you any friends on this site.

All the world’s a stage, & the men & women are merely mods, editors, & -smiths…which simply translates to:

“so what ya got ya votes up with ghosts bruh, & dummy accounts,
It doesn’t change da fact u have 2bounce,
still the real recognize when sh!t is corrupt,
u just down with a dog-pound dat don’t fuck with Kurupt!”

@Talib
I know, I’m being way too arrogant.

Socrates isn’t a secret. Everybody knows he was a philospher, but they don’t know what he’s done or what he’s philosophised. On top of that, it’s been used so much. Just like Dalai Lama. Stop being so unoriginal.

On a side note, don’t assume I’m frustrated because Psyonik won, and I’m trying to be a prick. Psyonik won. He had the better verses. That’s no secret either.

Search “Socrates rap lyrics” on google, and you get over 7 MILLION results. That’s forgetting Saukrates, the rapper.

Anybody who mentions Socrates in a form that is alluding to their artistic skill with hip hop lyricism DOESN’T know shit about Socrates, unless they’re writing child-friendly rap music. Which they’re not.

@AyGray…dude these are not the Judges Official votes, lol…it’s an Ill Design in the name of fans to manipulate, influence, & sway ballots.

For the record, I wrote an article on rap & Socrates on this website. Check it out if you’re interested.

@TunesAtWork
Don’t be conceded. It’s already clear what the judges decisions are.

@AyGray…no, it’s clear you are beating yourself to believe that & to think I’m being Conceded, lol, & not Conceited!!! Ha.

Just noticed AyGray already linked my article.

Swag

Lol

@Screv6
Kudos on that article.

@Tunes
Ahh, my bad.

I also dissed the judges quite a bit this round, which people would expect to be a deciding factor, but too be honest, I know it went over their heads.

I remember first round how I got feedback on my “punchlines” when I had one punchline, and just a ton of multi-syllable rhyme lines for the rest. A couple of these judges don’t know what they’re doing. A couple.

Truth.

AyGray — Did you peep my verse? I say a lot of the same things you’re saying in this post. Also, I think there are some “dummy accounts” at work here with these votes. I’ve seen a few huge vote swings in short periods while certain people were particularly active on the forums.
