Congratulations on making it to the semi-finals of the Audio Scheme Tourney. You verses are due on the 23rd of November at 11:59pm EST. A one time 24 hour extension can be granted if needed though this will hinder your voting time as the round shall still close on the 26th.

Your scheme is: TALK WITH CONVICTION.

Please post your scheme so it is public.

Hmmm. Manny's deliver does sound liek he's trying speed-rap against a clock on some Guinness world record shit haha and Cord's put some Reverb over his vocals/Mixed them. Bar wise: Both had some dope punches, for real. Due to Manny's fast pace he was able to stick in more punches/more material than his oppoenent. Needs to chill a lil though lol. Cords Delivery was smooth and crisp (w/ editing obv), Bars were nice too, that 'Starving to fit in' bar was niiice. Vote: I could honestly see this one going either way, props to both for dropping easiuly the battle of the tourney thus far. Fairs in, fellas. Best of luck to who ever goes through to the enxt round. 9's a piece.

Posted - Good luck Manhattan

Expo: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=DC-lt6sSEYM At 4:10 into this battle vs Dox DaVinci he choked before his round even begun. At 20:37 he tries to give his opponent props, gets rejected and tries to fight the guy. Also, Ahmish people normally get their teeth removed because they don't have modern dentist.

I’ll Catch em at a red light STOPPIN HIS CIVIC he’ll ”Checked right at the door” like a HOSPITAL VISIT Once I’m “Pulling cord out? It’s over” ...DOCTORS DECISION! if you try “swinging for the fences” like it’s the TOP OF THE INNING I’m “DODGING THE HITS” like a NOVICE IS PITCHING Get “Socked-in-the -mouth for talking-too-loud” like a HOSTAGE IS FLIPPING then these “Boots keep going through your head” like a SHOPPING ADDICTION “sandlot” “think he’s a beast”till you find out this DOG ISN’T VICIOUS!!!!./ “Watch out for the sharp blades” like WASHING THE DISHES or I’ll “Take a patch out of corduroy” now he’s “ROCKING SOME STITCHES”!!! I’ll “break into ya house” like *ksttt SWATS IN POSITION talk back an axe will RESPOND IN AN INSTANT have “You and your wife splitting cause of u” like what CAUSTIC WAS SPITTIN!!!! You’ll “Never be the same” like the intro when WATCHING THE SIMPSONS “Shaking from all the shots to the head” like the neuroLOGICAL SYMPTONS of MoHAMMAD’S ALI’s BOXING CONDITION!!!/ It’s like you got a BOX EVERY CHRISTMAS so you “THOUGHT YOU WERE GIFTED” “you need to quit feeling yourself” like your WALLET IS MISSING thats “pulling your teeth”so if you’re “DROPPING SOME WISDOM” it’s an AMISH TRADITION!!! checked out your battle in the BROCKTON DIVISION I was rooting for you and hoping DOX WAS THE VICTIM till “he got this bitches numbers” like SWAPPING YA DIGITS Cause “That was a hard pill to swallow when you choked” like an IMPROPER PRESCRIPTION looking like you “blacked out n LOST ALL YA VISION” while “shitting yourself n OBVIOUSLY TRIPPIN” like AYAHUASCA WAS MIXED IN without a SHAMANS ASSISTANCE!!!./ so you “Tried to box on the spot” like you BROUGHT THE EQUIPMENT and “You two pussies just talked shit about eachother” like GOSSIPING BITCHES didn’t DROP ANY HITS N “So you choked before you could even throw a punch” LOSS BY SUBMISSION!!!!./ So “quit the tough guy act” you don’t TALK WITH CONVICTION “Thought you hit w/ the right click/clique” so you COPIED THE IMAGE that’s why after the battle you tried to give PROPS ON THE WIN N were “Left Hanginh after Getting Coooked” like POTS IN THE KITCHEN!!!!

From the gate 1 of these 2 were my favorites to win! 1 was more conditioned and had the cadence and mic presence to match. I would of liked to see a stronger ending from Cor howeve still feel like he did enough to get the W! Manny was fire out the gate but just like his last round I thought he rushed the verse a tad bit and came across forced. Overall both had hard hitting lines and enjoyed the battle. I got my winner and most likely winner of this takes the tourney! 

It's interesting putting a face to a name in this anonymous rap world so it was coo to see corduroy put it down on the tube, then hear him in this arena. Felt his style and lead ups and the conviction in the punches are hammer.

manhattan can pack a whole lotta verse into a short time and the intricacies are headshakers sometimes. Makes ya gotta run it back and realize the flow ain't just words rhyming but a fuller verse disguised. 

I got my winner based on the higher of the highs of punch count. props to both.

LoD boi

Ok dope battle for sure.

Corduroy I like your style..it's different..very witty and your delivery is on point..you followed the scheme well also.

Manhattan I gotta say I wish u would slow it down just a tad so we can catch your punches quicker because they are worth catching..that way you won't have to write your verse in the expo..you had some hard hitting punches from start to finish..dope shit. Fairs in

2 very different styles. One was more aggressive while the other was super laid back. Both were dope verses. I thought Cord had a lot of clever ideas but some punches landed flat due to bad execution imo. Manny had better executed bars from the set ups to the similies. The wisdom teeth bar was my favourite of this battle. I gotta edge it to Manny, he was just more consistent to me. 

Ok i listened to this alot, i could see this be like a finals match.

MH- Theres alot of material and think that in itself is a display of skill! I think the personals were good. I think there were some lines that coukd have been haymakers if they had breathing room.

-highlight bars

- pulling cord out/ doc decision 

- Wallet is missing was cool

- hard pill to swallow/inproper prescrip

Cord: Such a strong round, The slow start had me worried. But after the first punch it was complete secret fire. That mh name flip was fire. Props for consistency 

Highlights

- ALL IN HIS SYSTEM Name Flip

- Man in box Starvin to fit in

- Cotton mouth/ gauze with subs 

All love and crazy respect for both i gave both 10s and edged to winner for Delivery and Standout punches.

Hatt..open is lololol..hostage is flippin nice..washin the dishes lol...kashi? Wss missin..dope..impropper prescription fire..pots in the kitchen! Haha dope drop bro! Fire punches, cadence was raw, delivery top notch. cord..nice open..chemical imballance line nice..nice cadence n flow. Punches.

Great battle. Feel like one was a fire demon the other was a bucket of water..good match. Fv imo

Phenomenal battle here guys, two different styles and delivery...one aggressive, plenty of energy and direct...opponent seemed more reserved, abstract and composed...great material offering presented by both...which made for a very enjoyable/entertaining listen.

Overall, reservations cost one the victory...although, I do understand the capacity and format of your punches...some of which were pretty slick, it just wasnt enough...opponent very efficiently out-punched you here. "Iowaska"? I mean...who thinks to incorporate that in a scheme, and managed to do it well? Nasty bar!

Fairs in gents, be blessed and happy Turkey Day

oh wow

Corduroy do you have a home studio? The sound delivery of your verse is music material. 💯 Or you got a trick for making it sound that way? 

Manhattan...nigga your constant punching is something to remember. That simpson line was ill.

This battle hard . 

yo isle....where were you 10 yers ago? you think you nice huh? see you put your lyrics ...didnt realize this was written. ima keep it real if i gotta read ya verse...ehhhh you know what bim sayin

whoa...some real battlers in heeeer...

sup with no beat? been awhile but this lb not url

maybe i should of listened a few times because its a tourney....but it is what it is

Dope match glad i saw this never heard cord before but his drop was top notch his subtract/walk witta difference bar was haymaker status i see him doing big things here. Manny what can i say you are a hell of a schemer and this proves why so many back to back shots verse was well crafted and as far as audio your performance and delivery were on point that corduroy patch/stitches punch was crazy imo good shit. Im rollin wit Manhattan on this due to an overall more aggressive and complex attack but salute to cord for top tier effort fair is in

pulling cord out.. doctor decition , unbeatable flawless verse that only a rapper like me could beat, coduroy wrong place at the wrong time , good shit manhatton 

brutal punches in rappid succesion, with all the fist flying, the hunger and believability is what i seen stand out and if your newer to the scene, at the very least i want to see/feel that you're hungrier, but in this battle it would be near impossible to express more hunger than my winner displayed for 100 out of the 90 seconds that was the set time, yes i can do math, and yes for an additional 10 seconds afterwards i could feel like a real sense of sadness for whoever is an obstacle, and i was quite surprised by the response, i mean you both presented hip hop, i respect those that respect the ART as well as CARE to be HONORABLE Pieces and Part of it, gb...............................Z
