Loaded Lux vs Charlie Clips RECAP
![]() |
| Loaded Lux vs Charlie Clips |
What's woody wood, grasshoppers?
We finally got what we've been waiting for...
Loaded Lux vs Charlie Clips
I RECAPPED this jawn because I didn't give a fuck about the other battles on the URL (Ultimate Rap League) Summer Madness 5 card
I'm just keepin' it a stack
Besides the fuckery during the coin toss and between rounds, this jawn is classic
Straight up
The battle had everything: bars, flow, personals, drama, freestyle, jokes and crowd reaction
So let's get down to it
ROUND 1 (6:50 start in the clip)
Lux came out swinging...his flow was on point with schemes for days...out of all Lux's rounds in the battle, this is my favorite from the one they nicknamed "Beloved"
And the funny thing is...
...I think a lot of his rhymes had went over a lot of folks' headz at first listen including mine
Alot of headz didn't peep why Lux repeated Clips's name before he started his round
People in a game use two pencils and shape them to a cross and say, "Charlie Charlie, are you there?" to see if the demon spirit is real...if there's no response, the spirit is fake...Lux is low key calling Clips a fraud
They also slept on Lux's other punches and schemes in the first
1. "As much flack as you got from not being in L.A. with them sneakers"
2. The Pizza Scheme...
3. Sending a message taking characters (Twitter)
4. Suited up, forever slacks. Prep...
5. Tits. Broad layers...
"Just cuz you got tits, bra (bruh), don't mean you be thinking in +broad (a chick) layers+"
6. Bootleg. Copy that, Clips a fraud...
"You got to look at how the +bootleg cut+ if you +copy+ that, this +Clips+ a fraud//this +pictures+ off"
7. Pillsbury doughboy/Boys N the Hood line...

"You got to look at how the +bootleg cut+ if you +copy+ that, this +Clips+ a fraud//this +pictures+ off"
7. Pillsbury doughboy/Boys N the Hood line...

8. Sike I lied... (Hollow Da Don trademarking Clips's slogan)
9. Cell phone scheme (Sprint, TMobile, Sim)
"You can't tell that to a nigga without a car, just him//And his +T-mobile+ the minute you roll over, try to play you like a +Sim+ (the video game/sim card)//That was him//All the ex-producers and managers planning to be in my +top five fave+ friends//'til they figured they ain't got drive for the long run that's when they came to +Sprint+//but this a marathon we in"
10. Ben Stiller line..
11. Audi logo/Bandages scheme
"This is what happens when these niggas get mentally famished//and can't handle it//their mental feeds be fishing, they can't manage it//'cuz they ain't bread (bred) for this type of meet (meat), but you could hook up the sandwiches//I mean, look, you got what ever type of advantages//Could be damages//Standing in your lobby thinking how he//Put his rounds together that's a sign, that nigga Audi//I been planning this//to rap (wrap) circles around a body, nigga, you're lucky it could be bandages"
12. Malcolm with the rifle line (click the photo below for a better read)
13. "Raisin on a nigga like dried prunes"
But what blew my mind was how I missed the schizophrenic scheme and the reason why Lux had changed clothes before his round
"You can say I'm a preacher, a Panther, Rich Porter, a YMCA dancer//Whatever, they gonna laugh, you're entertaining//I just figured in the age//Where trigger fingers turn to Twitter fingers//Don't be sending a message, take a certain number of characters to explain it//Like how me, myself, and I, already dangerous, but schizophrenic//You with a Harlem hustler, that will black out with the shotguns on the stages//I kill you in front of mom free of charge, and then pay for your whole funeral arrangements (click the photo below for a better read)
Don't get it fucked up, tho...
...Clips did his thing, too (14:11 start in the clip)
The first was also his strongest in my opinion
The more entertaining Clips rocked the crowd...they were clearly on his side...his flow was easier to follow, and he threw a haymaker when he rhymed...
"Oh, you talkin to me while the crowd goin' crazy, you don't know to work the heckler//Stomach shot, paramedics surprised, they don't know how to work the stretcher//He said 'Harlem Hospital giving beds out,' that'll work whatever//But the hole so big, Harlem Hospital and Presbyterian gotta work together!"
1. The God Blessing scheme
2. The Clips wannabe Loaded (Lux) scheme
3. The Fabolous line
4. The paralyze line
5. Home's Improvement/Ceiling line
6. The Puma line
7. Battle on the roof/Ass bettin'
The Uber and the Will Smith lines were questionable...
...you pay AFTER the ride with Uber, and the movie was I Am Legend, NOT Independence Day
ROUND 2
(Lux 23:30 start in the clip)
Lux schemed heavy in the second round, and got the crowd on his side with a more simpler and comical approach
Dude even busted out in a freestyle twice with the Wavy and hospital lines
Peep the highlights from Lux's second...
"These type niggas, they for y'all, that's like that show on Starz// Nah, I'm into authentic Power//When in an hour you ain't gotta act like,"50 cent ain't enough", so disrespect? You allow it// How you talkin' principle (principal) shit? Well, I never attended Howard// But as a student of the game, I know you can't just claim to be a man and not put on those trousers// I watched you gun talk a nigga for 3 minutes straight, my nigga, bullet showers//We just want to know where was the tech when Big Cheese kept your 7 hundred and fifty dollars"
"This happens when you get to guessin' at the debates//Chess is what I play//And if Coutour (Clips's girlfriend) know the game, she know it's over once a nigga get +checked+ in front of his +mate+"
"I came to fight, fat boy, sleeves up//I roll up on this nigga like a pants cuff//Break his whole dance up//Pop Lock//I wanna hold tall Couture, handsome//How long u gone cockblock?//'What's the time, Smack?'//Why yo fake shooters always worried bout the shot clock?//you stop watch ass nigga, prolly a laptop over backshots//That flabby bag ain't built to last//you get in, pull the trigger fast//This BLACK ass not BLACK OPS//You a Charlie CLIPS, I'm FULLY LOADED//You just a trailer in my movie, SNAPSHOT//Ain't no future in frontin', BACKDROP//You in here with the main attraction, MASCOT"
A lot of people thought Lux's second round was his dopest
Me personally...
...I thought his second was light compared to the first
His finish wasn't as strong as the first
Oh yeah, Lux also dissed Smack on the low
"You (Clips) the only nigga in battle rap with a 360 deal, nigga//You let this hairy nigga play J. G. Wintworth" (referring to Smack)

People didn't even catch that low key diss
Now on to Charlie
(Clips 29:50 start in the clip)
Clips once again entertained the crowd with the Don't Be a Menace joke

For those who don't know, Lux became known as a conscious eMCee since his battle with Calicoe, and a few headz have been mocking him about his style change ever since
That's why Clips played on the joke with the kufi and glasses, acting like the righteous character from the movie
That shit Clips did was funny as hell, tho...
...I can't lie
The Lux impression he pulled was hilarious and hella entertaining
I think Clips lost his luster in this round...his rhymes were "eh"...the jokes were cool, but I thought Clips did better with incorporating jokes WITH the bars in the first round
And I think that's why the crowd booed Clips before he finished his second
The Roy Rogers/Popeyes line was dope, tho
Now on to the third and last round
Round 3
(Lux 38:35 start in the clip)
If anyone had Lux and Clips tied at this point, I think this round was the most defining moment of the battle
This round was the most personal... "These type niggas, they for y'all, that's like that show on Starz// Nah, I'm into authentic Power//When in an hour you ain't gotta act like,"50 cent ain't enough", so disrespect? You allow it// How you talkin' principle (principal) shit? Well, I never attended Howard// But as a student of the game, I know you can't just claim to be a man and not put on those trousers// I watched you gun talk a nigga for 3 minutes straight, my nigga, bullet showers//We just want to know where was the tech when Big Cheese kept your 7 hundred and fifty dollars"
"This happens when you get to guessin' at the debates//Chess is what I play//And if Coutour (Clips's girlfriend) know the game, she know it's over once a nigga get +checked+ in front of his +mate+"
"I came to fight, fat boy, sleeves up//I roll up on this nigga like a pants cuff//Break his whole dance up//Pop Lock//I wanna hold tall Couture, handsome//How long u gone cockblock?//'What's the time, Smack?'//Why yo fake shooters always worried bout the shot clock?//you stop watch ass nigga, prolly a laptop over backshots//That flabby bag ain't built to last//you get in, pull the trigger fast//This BLACK ass not BLACK OPS//You a Charlie CLIPS, I'm FULLY LOADED//You just a trailer in my movie, SNAPSHOT//Ain't no future in frontin', BACKDROP//You in here with the main attraction, MASCOT"
A lot of people thought Lux's second round was his dopest
Me personally...
...I thought his second was light compared to the first
His finish wasn't as strong as the first
Oh yeah, Lux also dissed Smack on the low
"You (Clips) the only nigga in battle rap with a 360 deal, nigga//You let this hairy nigga play J. G. Wintworth" (referring to Smack)

(Clips 29:50 start in the clip)

The Roy Rogers/Popeyes line was dope, tho
Now on to the third and last round
Round 3
(Lux 38:35 start in the clip)
If anyone had Lux and Clips tied at this point, I think this round was the most defining moment of the battle
...and Lux most definitely brought heat to Clips
We just gon' share that half a square while we wait here and park at the scene//this the spot where Rex popped off, and didn't accomplish a thing//I'm taking shots//but I'ma stop off at every bar in between//What Arnold got, the schwarzr-nigga strong on the machine//pull up sharp, when I come out the rock like Arthur the king
Lux's rhyme scheme in those bars were crazy
What got me open was when he spat...
You and yo punk ass daddy a couple of chatty pattys, nigga//Acting catty, meow//Math was swinging, you was standing there playing caddy//I thought you was a killer, Charles? LeRay//I thought Chuckie wasn't no joke?, He just think he DeRay//You might be a DJ, the way you turn on niggas in the jam you in//You switched on Cor & Chamberz, after you let they man get whipped//Dammit Clips//I know +comedians+ don't do candid script//And you a funny acting ass nigga, too, but that wasn't no +stand up+ shit
Dope
And then the paperwork about Clips's pops snitching on The Lynch Mob, the drug crew that operated on Lenox Ave and 142nd Street in Harlem...according to documents, a Feds magazine article, and former members of the crew, Clips's pops, Charles "Fat Leon" Brown, cooperated with the government and then reneged on the deal at the stand which got him LIFE in federal prison
Lux name drops Farris Phillips and Lou Simms in the round, former members of The Lynch Mob who copped pleas instead of flippin' on the crew (click the photos below for a better read)



Lux used that angle to say how Clips shared the same charactistics as his pops by throwing fellow battle eMCees Cortez and D Chamberz under the bus during his battle against Hollow Da Don
And the funny thing is, what made Lux's 3rd round hit home was when Clips told the world the private convo he had with Verb about how to battle Lux in that same round
"The apple don't fall far from the tree" - Lux
If Smack didn't stop Lux from rhyming the second time, I think he would've destroyed Clips...real talk...from what I saw, Lux was about to say some shit to burn Clips's soul if he already didn't before the round ended
I've never seen a serious looking Clips rattled during a battle
Then it was on Clips (Clips 50:20 start in the clip)
Clips tried to rebuttal Lux's claims of his pops snitchin' by saying how Faybach's pops's was a snitch, too
Faybach is the light skinned cat who brought out the paperwork of Clips's pops supposedly cooperating with the government in the battle

I think Clips took too long with trying to rebuttal Lux's 3rd round...he should've stuck with the program by using at least four bars to address the issue, and then going back into his writtens...he didn't start cookin' until late in the round, but by then, it was too late
I got the mind of a Martin Luther//Look at me, king, you should be proud of me//And I shall overcome, on your girl's lips while she's mouthin' me//I Had a Dream, that all these people in the front row was comin' out for me//And how ironic, they watchin me lose my mind from the balcony
That scheme from Clips was hard
The time limit killed the battle, but I still thought the joint was classic...you saw everything, rhymes, drama, fuckery, personals and crowd participation, and with that said...
...I gave Lux the battle 3-0 (no bodybag)
Lux had a FOCUS; a main idea (assassinate Clips's character persona)...
...Clips, on the other hand, stirred up jokes, punchlines and rebuttals in a pot of gumbo and cooked up his rounds
At first, I said the battle was debatable...I had Clips winning round 1 with Lux bagging the 2nd and 3rd...the more I watched the battle, I got Lux edging the 1st (that round was the most debatable to me)
If anybody got Clips, I wouldn't be mad...I just felt Lux's material more...Clips won in the room, but Lux's style is timeless to the point where he never gets old on repeated watches because you constantly catch hidden jewels you never caught in the first few views
"+Dead+ niggaz are always +late+" - Lux using a metaphor of a clock and a battle emcee dying on stage (when someone dies, you call them the late (insert name here)

Some headz might say you shouldn't have to watch a battle numerous times to pick a definitive winning, but to be honest with you...I don't think Lux is necessarily aiming to win in the room
He's rapping to the camera, not the crowd...battle rap to him is a legacy...and the method to the madness of giving the audience more for the future is what brings freshness to his battles
The comedy from Clips had me laughing...on the flip side, you can't play games with a lyricist like Lux whose pen game is superior...even though I got Lux beating Hollow Da Don 2-1, I still think Hollow legitimately cracked the code on how to beat Lux (if you say Hollow had won) by not trying to out-rap Lux
You gotta use angles to get over on Lux because lyrically too advanced to beat
Aight, family...I gotta finish this new book I'm cookin' up...it's been whoopin' my ass the past few months, but I see the finish line in my horizon

Loaded Lux vs Murda Mook...THE REMATCH!!!

Ayo, I'm got plans to interview adult entertainers in the near future...the king is gonna change a few things for the year dime and 4 pennies...just sit back, relax and watch me work
Aight...not for nothin', I really don't wanna see this battle...I'm talking about the rematch between Loaded Lux and Murda Mook...been there, done that
Mook is trash, and I want Lux to battle someone else...maybe Eminem or somebody...but hey, Paul Rosenberg (Eminem's manager) is cutting checks...so I can't hate on the decision
All I gotta say is that Lux is gonna cremate Mook and smoke his ashes
Mook's last battle against Iron Solomon at URL's Summer Madness 2 event was a snooze fest even though he won...I won't even bother putting up the link for that joint...I'll do you a favor and save you some time to blow your nose or something
And Lux?
Well...just Google him...the man is amazing
Rap group Slaughterhouse is hosting the battle between Mook and Lux...they're signed to Eminem's record label if you've been living under a rock...and if you don't know who Eminem is, he's some rapper guy who sold millions of records
I heard he's pretty good
Click here for more details on the battle
Aight, ya'll...I'm out...I'm gonna leave you a clip of the Mook vs Lux battle that happened about 10 years and some change ago...enjoy
Peace

Loaded Lux vs Hollow Da Don High Stakes RECAP!!!
![]() |
| Loaded Lux vs Hollow Da Don |
What’s woody wood, grasshoppers?
Ayo, I just witnessed the greatest battle rap event of all-time between Harlem’s Loaded Lux and Queens’s Hollow Da Don. Rap battle league Ultimate Warrior threw the monumental event (High Stakes) yesterday in Elizabeth, New Jersey. Internet personality Jack Thriller hosted the battle, and even though his interviews on ThisIs50.com are funny as hell, he fuckin’ annoyed the shit outta me at times during the battle
Anyway…
Headz had to order the 4 match battle event on Pay Per View from Ustream for 30 bucks…I didn’t pay for it, but I put that shit on lay-a-way by tellin’ my dude I was gonna pay him 10 bucks the next time I see him...he had the computer, I didn’t; I was home while he was laying at home a couple miles away with the wife
I was good with him just calling me every now and then for updates…I chipped in for the love of the battle rap culture even though I didn’t witness the event first hand…I shot myself in the foot by telling my man I was gonna give him 10 bucks for the battle after someone had uploaded the bootleg version of the event right after the joint had ended
Lucky me
Last year Loaded Lux waltzed to the stage as a preacher with his crew carrying a casket before his battle with Detroit’s Calicoe…
…yesterday he rolled through the joint as a member of the Black Panthers
That’s when I knew shit was gonna be real
Lux’s rhymed first…his first round was stupid (stupid meaning “good” for the ebonically challenged)…the punchlines connected like crazy and he got the crowd going
Next up was Hollow…he roasted Lux about rockin’ “Eddie Murphy pants” and an “Hell's Angels jacket”…funny shit, and he came with more jokes…but I got Lux in that round
Round 2, Lux did his thing, but Hollow took the round even though he briefly got booed toward the end…I still got Hollow taking the 2nd...Hollow didn’t beat Lux rhyme for rhyme, he just outclassed Lux with charisma and wit
The 3rd round Lux took it home…he got personal with Hollow about his drug addiction to lean (cough syrup mixed with Sprite for the ebonically challenged) and impressed me with his punchlines that hit hard even though he also got booed briefly after kickin’ knowledge about Black Panther Party members Fred Hampton and Bobby Hutton…Hollow also got crazy in this round, and even brought out Calicoe’s father, BMF (Black Mafia Family) member Black Face, to the center of the stage
To make a long story short, Lux dissed Black Face during the battle with Calicoe two years ago on the Ultimate Rap League’s Summer Madness 2 event
Click here to watch, or keep reading if you already know the story
And Black Face proved Lux right last night…
…he is a lost nigga
Bringing out Black Face would’ve been more gangster if Black Face would’ve walked up calmly to Lux face-to-face with his arms folded and said, “Say that lost nigga shit now, nigga” with a MEAN stare down for a good 10 seconds before calmly walking off like a true O.G.
Instead, I saw this cat who gotta be over 40-years-old fake wild out on stage like he was gonna do something
Nice try, but no cigar
I got Lux winning that round by a hair of my beard
I got Loaded Lux winning the 1st round and the 3rd round…Hollow Da Don got the 2nd round…I felt Hollow rhymed stronger and outclassed Lux in the 2nd
Lux had more quotables in his first round than Hollow's whole battle, real talk
This battle is about preference. If you love technical rhymes and substance that make you think, you might pick Lux. If you want something simple with jokes and sarcasm, Hollow is your guy
The battle can go either way….I’m a supporter of both of these guys…I just favor Lux more…Hollow is cool, but Lux’s style is more my speed…I’m not gonna lie, tho…
…Hollow impressed the shit outta me throughout the battle…DAMN!!!
I wasn’t expecting that from the da don dininon
This battle was a classic example of a great back and forth between two great eMCees
…the battle was worth paying the 30 bucks
One up for Hip-Hop
Peace

Anybody who thinks Hollow won gets no hate from me…it’s not that serious…the battle was basically about preference and the clash of styles, and can pretty much go either way depending on what you like…but one thing’s for sure and two thing’s for certain…
…the battle was worth paying the 30 bucks
One up for Hip-Hop

Battle Rap For Dummies
What’s woody wood grasshoppers?
I’m gonna start posting a couple blogs about battle rap in the coming days leading up to the SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 event in NYC…Summer Madness 3 is the Super Bowl of battle rap…but there’s A LOT of controversy involved
One part of that controversy involves Loaded Lux, who many consider one of the top tier, if not THEE best, battle MC…one thing’s for sure, he’s a legend, and after his monumental battle with Detroit’s own Calicoe, his stock has risen
I’ll explain about Lux in the next blog
But for now, let me introduce my readers who aren’t familiar with battle rap the match between Loaded Lux vs. Calicoe at last year’s Summer Madness
Click here to watch from your phone
Click on the links below AFTER you watch this battle…you’ll thank me…LOL

SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 Card and Predictions
What's woody wood, grasshoppers?
This year's SMACK/URL Summer Madness 3 rap battle event is held in New York City @ Studio 48 on Sunday, September 8th, 2013 #BarsOverNames
Click here for ticket info
I'm pissed that Loaded Lux and Hollow Da Don aren't battling...Lux wants 40k to battle Hollow, and SMACK (the co-founder of URL) isn't having it...But hey, I can't knock the man for his asking price
Lux's performance @ last year's Summer Madness was monumental...click here for my recap about his battle with Calicoe
Speaking of Calicoe, homie is back in full effect after fighting off alleged dog fighting charges...I don't feel like giving you the background story behind that...you can Google that shit to see for yourself
Anyway...check out the Summer Madness 3 card and predictions below (based on 3 rounds)
Arsonal vs K-Shine
Prediction: Arsonal 2 - K Shine -1
Ars is too nasty for Shine...point blank
Math Hoffa vs Serius Jones
Prediction: Math 3-0
Math really has a grudge against Serius, and based on Serius's performance at last year's Summer Madness against Charlie Clips, he really hasn't changed his flow
Big T vs. O-Red
Prediction: O-Red 3-0
O-Red is a beast, and Big T is too inconsistent for my liking
Calicoe vs. T-Rex
Prediction: Calicoe 2-1
A hungry Cal will edge Rex...barely
JC vs. John John Da Don
Prediction: JC 3-0
JC is dope...I'm not really feeling John John...duke is corny to me
Tay Roc vs. Ill Will
Prediction: Ill Will 2-1
A toss up, but I give Ill the edge
Daylyt vs. Swave Sevah
Prediction: Daylyt 2-1
Daylyt is a dope lyricist and highly entertaining without the bullshit antics he's known for, and Swave is raw as well, but I don't think he has enough ammo for the weirdo
Jaz the Rapper vs. Ms. Hustle
Prediction: Me fuckin' the shit outta both of 'em
The first female battle in URL history will not get a prediction from me...yes, I'm on my male chauvinist shit tonight
Aight ya'll...it's been real

Math vs Dose THE REMATCH
![]() |
| Math (the left) vs Dose (the right) |
Ayooooo…
I’m a big time battle rap fan…as an MC, I too have battle rapped back in high school and college…battle rapping was a way to test your skill as an MC…nowadays, battle rapping has reached to higher levels with more sophisticated rhymes than years before
I wanna introduce this infamous rematch between Math Hoffa and J Dose for two reasons:
1. Their first battle was popular back in ‘07
2. Their first battle was popular in ’07 because of a punch to the chin
Now, I don’t condone violence in a battle rap…you kick someone's ass verbally because getting physical shows how weak minded you are…but shit, the punch was funny as hell…ha ha!
Check out the 1st clip below for the first battle between Math and Dose aka the infamous chin checkin’
The 2nd clip is an explanation of why Math had punched Dose
And the 3rd clip is the REMATCH that took place a few weeks ago
Here's my recap:
I think Math won the rematch 2-1 out of 3 rounds...Dose won the first round (he SNAPPED!) and Math won the last two
Dose is a dope lyricist, he just lacks a stage presence, and he needs to slow down his rhymes so everyone can FEEL what he's saying...some of the tightest shit he spat was rapped too fast to grasp in one listen
Math controlled the stage better and kept me more entertained...I'm all about bars (pure lyricism of wits), but I also want my battle MC to entertain and move the crowd
Anyway, enuff of that shit...see for yourself
Peace

Loaded Lux vs Calicoe Unedited EXTENDED 3rd Round
Ayo…I’m finna take a quick break from talkin’ about the life of an author and the fuckery that goes along with it to post my favorite MC battle in recent years…Loaded Lux vs. Calicoe
The clip below is the un-edited version of the battle…if you weren’t physically @ the URL Summer Madness 2 event in NYC last August, you probably wouldn’t know about or saw the entire 3rd round…everybody knows about the edited version of the clip
But what you didn’t see is Calicoe choking in the 3rd round and Loaded Lux rapping for an extra minute after the “these Detroit niggas are still…cockfightin!” line
I’m not gonna give my thoughts on this version…I don’t wanna give too much away…I WILL say that SMACK (the promoter of the event) should’ve stopped Lux after he said the “cockfightin” line (like you see in the edited version) instead of allowing him to go on an extra minute
It’s almost as if Lux had said, “fuck it…I’ma go on” and started freestyling after noticing SMACK not stopping the battle…LOL
Anyway, I say no more…peep the clip below

Loaded Lux vs. Calicoe RECAP!!!
The Loaded Lux vs. Calicoe battle that took place at Summer Madness 2 in NYC this past August was one of the BEST battles I’ve seen
The 3-round battle showcased wits, charisma and personal verbal beatdowns that intrigued me to watch the joint for a 2nd time…I RARELY watch battles for a second time…that should tell you something
Lux came through the joint rockin’ a suit, brought out a casket, a hearse, and his people dressed in black. The concept was to mourn Calicoe’s funeral in an MC burial as they plastered his face on an obituary
For one, I though the concept was hot and creative…and two, Lux’s preacher-at-the-church style fits the images that he brought forth on stage
Calicoe won the first round…he rhymed first and came stronger than Lux…Lux choked the first round…me personally, I think he choked on purpose because he went HARD on the 2nd and 3rd
You really need an ear for metaphors and wordplay to dig Lux’s style of rhyme…not saying Calicoe is a lesser MC than Lux because he’s dope, but if you’re used to the elementary flow that’s popular on the radio nowadays, a lot shit that Lux spit is gonna flow over your head
The 3rd verse that Lux spit is EPIC Calicoe lost the crowd in the 2nd round...he let some of the boos get to him...an MC is suppose to ignore that shit and keep rockin'
I’m not the one to post my favorite lines from both MCs in the battle…I don’t have time on my hands to do that shit…I’ll let you see for yourself
All I'm gonna say is...
"HE GON' GET THIS WORK!!!"
Peace

P.S.
Lux deserves an acting job...he played the preacher theme to the T
