Overall this is a decent little jab. Firstly a minor gripe, you should keep an eye on punctuation: "LOOK NICK THAT'S WACK" ... "LOOK NICK, THAT'S WACK!"
The addition of the comma tells the reader where to pause, and makes the meaning of the sentence clear. Also the exclamation mark added to the end tells the reader that Row was making a statement. Thats wack, becomes: Thats wack!.

This next critque might sound funny but bare with me. Your multis in this bar were TOO rigid, its like you try too hard for every syllable to be identical and it makes the flow blocky. Another issue is when you try to use what i call a soft-syllable. Lemme try to explain:

LOOK NICK THATS WACK
SHOOK KID aTTACKS

Thats the way the words are sounded out, the "a" on ATTACKS is a soft sounded syllable which throws off the flow when reading it the way you structured the bar. "THATS" is a fairly long one syllable word, whereas "a" is very short. I know most people dont consider syllables to be different lengths but they can be and its minor issues like this that can throw the flow of a rhyme off.

As for the punchline: He 'Signals For Grizz' Clearer than FOOTPRINTS & TRACKS!! i have a few pointers.

Firstly the concept itself by its nature will reduce the amount of voters that will understand it. The insult is that he calls for GRizzEAT's support whenever he disses someone. Firstly the validity of the insult is questionable which affects the punches power. For example its like insulting the track quality of Real Talk. It might be a nice bar but when the truth of it isnt high then it affects the impact. Secondly anyone not active on the forums isnt going to get the reference at all. Remember your audience. Finally the concept itself is fairly basic, and the wording "grizz" rather than "grizzly" also deducts points from the overall bar.

Phew lol

Holla!
