next bellis, best three tap your feet I snap necks to the beat-
-beating leaving ed bleeding indiscreetly in the street-
-cred fleeting, bleating sheep dread the death-tollin I spread
rollin dough, ed? I toast to bread from holster to head
get fed red peppered led by the shepherd - me
worst deputy shoot first then axe - questions like jeopardy
separately every crew from any mold is clappin
for the new kid lucid rap old soul control what happen
I remotely promote votin like U.S. foreign policy
and I rap outside the boxers cause I'm more into ballin free
you see quality and progress are engraven in my name
they call me seg the savior cause I'm savin every game

hidden temple head ascension, cash in national attention
lets bench ed, he mentioned needing reading comprehension
I know if he could read at all he'd read all this and weep
and fill my well of hater tears to sow the sorrow that I reap
my triumphs of the human bowels will blow apart the porcelain
forcing flow forth from my jowl to cut resistance like a dorsal fin
of course I'll win, I snack on lackeys but I'm mainly in this town to flex
down to back-attacks? you rap whacker than batman's sound effects
don't WHIFF again, minion, just check it down like rookie quarterbacks
difference of opinion - you lookin good if you ignore the facts
I broke the back of mammerjammer, an inadvertent evil deed
I just kept pacing pavements cause I aint got time to bleed

Wow, this is my favorite battle of the contest...and I mean all of the contests. Seg was sick and brought his A game. Ed came hard with sick disses. No one was bad on any level, Seg had a better flow and it had a better rap feel to it, but it's not like Ed's flow wasn't great either...Seg just edged him out a bit. Ed had better disses. Overall although it had what felt like a few lines of filler stuff to keep the flow going, I'm going to give a very slight overall edge to Seg. But it wouldn't surprise me in the least if you guys end up battling again in the finals.

I still can't decide.

I've only ever been more impressed by some of DC's stuff.

I will have to get really meta if I vote in this at all.

I'm... gonna have to go with Seg here.

2 >3 > 1 > 4

But just to note, this vote might not be permanent. I read all this just now and I'm tired which may have caused me to miss some things. I'll reread the verses in the morning and possibly change my mind.

Bellis


I have to say, you are both wonders with words. However, I had some trouble flowing with seg's and I liked Ed's disses better.

... god damn.

content wise, i preferred ed's -- though there were a few lines i wasn't big on (the CRRR-AAACK bit in particular kinda tossed me out of it), but seg's just flowed so perfectly in my head.

no clue who to vote; it's sad someone has to go to losers bracket over this.

Okay, I read them again while fully restless and I'm afraid I must...

Change to Ed Bellis

1 > 4 > 2 > 3

I got a lot more stuff in Ed's second verse that I grazed over when I was tired. Bloodletting pun was fantastic, and "you're only memorable as a receptable for my e-genitals" is a fantastic phrase, but I've gotta say that "CRAAA-ACK" thing through the flow off. That alone keeps it from ranking higher than Seg's first which was definitely my favorite verse in this battle but imo Seg kind of dropped that ball in his second.

Ed's was way too clunky. Not that shorter is better, it just seemed to get in its own way in regards to the flow. The disses were top notch, though.

Either way, Seg 1 > Bellis 2 > Seg 2 > Bellis 1

giving this one to Seg

I'm on board with Ed's longer flow when it brings about better disses and wordplay, but I'm not sure his were any better than Seg's. And that's kinda a killer.

Congrats to Seg, who will face the winner of Chrono/Boko!

God help the one loss bracket, where Ed awaits the results of Biolizard vs. Ayvuir/BBallman
