Expos: 1) Lockhart fell in love with some tramp name Natalie. She was his everything, proclaimed his love for her and so on... Rohan Rane came along and took her from him. 2) He was in the army but has never seen battle, he was in the back of the lines, safe, were he used computers. WP: Trust/Truss. 

Locks more of a tennis ball than a battle rapper w/a stinghow he fell into love over the net w/out a racket to swing/ See Natalie beat his ass into submission whilethis dumb fuck thought he had her jumping through hoopsBut his bird wanted to fly the coupe, magician stylehow Rohan pulled that trick right from under dude/And he knows each one of these bars are true/So we ask now, when it comes to women, will he shoot? Nah, only time he's 'playing the filed' is when he's dressed in a Ghillie suit./Named yourself Reaper but that's another lie you've drilledI'm the harbinger, stop. This were fables end w/ the chrome,Cause If we're to see any 'trust in what you build' It's doing a carpenters job on the gable end of a home/ Messing w/ Fuel? An this fuck will be destroyed, why ya'll hype this heathen, he never fight for freedomInoculations the only shots he took when deployed/ So when he talks 'bout being a vet? Even the best knows, the visions blurry, Cause only shots he had a hand in making were espressos in the commissary/if Lock says his 'steps built from the street’ where him and his Mates played round the ghettos?It's all lies, this Bible basher's only seen ‘Rolling on the block’ wearing skates made out of legos/Called yourself Jimmy Hoffa, trying to be Gnagsta/then changed it to rieper, acting like death was a violent planthe irony with that is how your last breath is at the hands of an irishman/Lock, “Don't speak”, you've always been a lame, there's 'no doubt'when “I throw my toys around” i'll have them aim for your snout.Ya'll fond of this liar, like he's a bond w/ firebut avy pics the only time he's seen w/ flames at his mouth/Don't know why you want it w/ fuelyou haven't the lungs to consume smoke, bruhIt's quite the image if we see him raising armsSee this soldiers known to drop to his knees, & i'm not talking about the platoon poster/ Cycling through the same fantasies, As if Lock rides a bike w/a pillow,All the talks of gats you fake fuck,On the mic you've no skills, broSo the beaten this pussy's taking's unfairlike a dike w/ a dildo/

FUEL man, don't hate me here, but I gotta see those lyrics..

Damn good shit Fuel 🔥🔥🔥🔥

DEDSEC!

Yo yo yo. So basically, I thought both dudes were about even on the mic. Was feeling Boths mic presence. I know I MYSELF Had a hard time understanding FUEL in a few spots here but I'm not gonna hold the fact that me and him have different accents against him, of course. Flow wise, energy wise, conviction on the punches, about even to be honest. So for me it came down to basically just the bars. Both went for some personals but neither was doing a TON of damage with them, mostly because Locks were a bit simple and FUELS were quite played from what I've been able to gather reading a few old Lockhart battles, and weren't quiiiite good enough to overcome that. So it kind of came to the consistency of it overall and FUEL I was feeling the innoculation and Irishman punches a lot, those were well done. But, you had a couple lines here that were just laughable and not in a good way, an example is the skates made out of LEGO one, just, cmon haha. Rieper I was feeling the palm, soda bottle, and the Pokémon closer. But more importantly, the "weaker" punches were still just alright, and there wasn't anything that was just downright bad. So I got Rieper edging this one out 8-8 on consistency but it was one I had to ponder. Good battle, fairs in boys. 

One rushed delivery really hurt there overall drop. Pen-wise hoesntly this was super close. i think Rieper's cleaner delivery gets the dge here tho. 8-8 Lock. 

my winner was at a good level from start to finish but this was very close. i listened like 3 times it could go either way fairs in (BARS)

KILLERS.

I'm not in the "know" but i felt like i was with that battle, shit got me ruffled up and i dont even know whats going on, my winner just got a jump and never let off, gb...............Z

This was a cool battle. Thought lock was a lot more composed. Fuel really tried to have too much material and his whole verse felt very rushed. It would have paid huge to drop a couple of bars and take time to let your punches have some impact. Both came with personals but locks rebuttals helped and the strength of the punches was in locks favor here.
