I usuall get told my style would be very suited towards live battling. My focus on making the bars clear, going for comedy and not leaning on expos is the main reasons why.

However I couldn't live battle. I just simple don't sound good. Accent aside I don't have a natural voice for rapping and don't have a natural delivery.

I will never beat M Rock or Allboro in an audio battle. No matter the mic quality. No matter if I could beat them in text battles or not. It'd never happen. I don't have the sound or delivery. Someone like M Rock could 100-0 me using Dafeet bars because his delivery of them would sound dope.

I know everyone likes to pretend writing is this artistic science but typically we all just vote for the verse we enjoyed best.

You know how a battle can get a bunch of votes yet only one or two point out a broken multi? Its cause the rest didnt see it. When they read it out it still flowed. If you enjoy something, youre not picking out small technical flaws.

Same in audio. If one guy sounds slick, great flow, solid sounding rhymes and the other guy was let's say me.... you're not voting for me.

I can go to singing lessons every day for the rest of my life. Still can't sing. It doesn't mean those who can don't have to practice every day to improve in small increments, it means that some people just aren't cut out for it.

Sure, people can develop a sick delivery for an audio battle. Build up their flow and become really great. But that wasn't the topic at hand. Someone who sounds really bad (like myself) isn't beating someone who sounds really good.
ONE OF YOUR BETTER POSTS THIS YEAR DUDE...... IM ACTUALLY IN AGREEMENT WITH ALOT OF WHAT YOU SAID.

OUT OF INTEREST, TO YOUR KNOWLEDGE HAS THERE EVER BEEN A SCOTTISH RAPPER WHO CAME CLOSE TO MAKIN IT IN RAP? BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT SOME ACCENTS PPL HAVE REALLY HURT THEIR ABILITY TO FLOW, IM NOT DISSIN THA SCOTTISH ACCENT BUT IT IS A GOOD EXAMPLE.

I REMEMBER @UNKNOWN ARTIST MADE HIS YOUWISH ACCOUNT AN HE WAS SCOTTISH BUT PUT ON AN AMERICAN ACCENT TO FLY UNDER THA RADAR, AN HE ACTUALLY SOUNDED PRETTY GOOD, BUT HE MUST OF TRIED IT IN HIS OWN ACCENT FIRST AN NOT LIKED WHAT HE HEARD.
