The thing about audio is that a flow and delivery can change what your audience thinks about you. You can play on the audience's emotions through the inflections in your voice. In this aspect you don't really have to worry about complete total hard hitting lines if you have good speaking skills. For example (and ironically), your battle with Verity (@Phil Banks) you had some dope lines especially that dope name play opener, BUT what really sold me was your delivery. You had a good battle presence that just was raw. Verity had some dope lines in there too no doubt cuz she's a good writer BUT (no offense) I really wasn't diggin that British/English accent. Te same thing with JamJar who is also good with text BUT in audio battles it sounds out of place. In the end the whole point of a text battle is to sort of exaggerate our skills with wordplay, concepts, and punches. Think about this. More than half of his are no doubt better than every single member of Young Money but look who's famous cuz they have the right connections and know how to appeal To audiences . Some of the shit wee come up with is doper than any shit other mainstream rappers could dream. But the point is flow and delivery plays a bigger part in audio which means you can downplay the essentials of text.
