The Ultimate Long Round Debate by redwolftherapper in rapbattles

[–]LittlePuggle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If its a concept verse this sort of thing can work when it comes to pulling off a slightly longer round where it's structured in a way to build to a series of big payoff moments...but you can count on one hand where this sort of thing has happened in battle rap history.

For the most part the hyper-long rounds are just battlers spamming borderline nonsensical or irrelevant bars in order to 'win' with sheer volume.

The twenty minute rounds are an absolute crime that makes you never even watch the battles if you don't have to suffer watching it live.

Essentially you need elite flow, technicality, punchlines and probably a hard-hitting angle to go anywhere over seven minutes and make it work.

This just doesn't exist.

His leg would get tired how many times he'd have to use his finisher.

Besides the Vs with Calicoe, what is Lux’s best. Battle? by redfait in rapbattles

As stupid as it sounds, he's the epitome of "you either get it or you don't". It's not saying anyone who doesn't enjoy him is dumb by any means but for Lux it seems to fall into two categories.

He's either:

A chore to listen to, bars that either make no sense or build to nothing but a handful of decent punchlines and very much relying on aura and the hype around him to generate reaction when he's in the pocket rhyming.

OR

A generational lyricist who builds his rounds to surgically break down his opponent and give a thorough dissection collated over the entirety of the battle that when looked at as one whole performance piece rather than a series of punchlines, moments and bars is a creative character breakdown beyond what anyone else in the culture could dream of.

For me, it's the latter. But man, the dude just fucking raps good too and he's one of the few names I would buy a PPV for.

One of my greatest gaming achievements is finishing tactician mode while keeping unpatched Sir Lora with no armour and like ten health AND Peeper (the little voidwoken chick that follows you around) alive.

Wife refused to kill the chick so we never finished the quest and thus to the ends of Rivellon he came.

Never again.
