Yeah but whether Rican deserves an 8 or 9 is subjective

A harsher voter can say X and Y was forced or w/e and off that alone give him a 7

My battles shit on 80% of the bullshit I be reading, and the bullshit I be reading gets 8's and 9's while my shit gets 7's. I'm really referring to my last text battle. The amount of complexity as far as the schemes was crazy. Wordplays here and there, humor, punchlines. Everybody reads shit in their own voice/accent so ya'll might not agree on certain shit rhyming..& because of that I never expected a 10. wouldn't be the end of the world if i didn't get a 9 either. but the fact that I was gettin more 7's than 8's is brazy. ya'll niggas trippin

This is the problem right here ^^ people giving ratings based on names instead of the actual verse. "Oh thats that washed up garbage ass overrated oldhead Daddio, better give him a 10!"

See, you might think of a nigga like Daddio as washed up, but one thing I don't do is take credit from someone at something they excel at..

For example his punches might be weak/dated but you can't give em a 7 if his flow/multis are on point

The way I look at it is ...if I'm pulling off schemes and multis that you can't pull off, or you'd have a hard time pulling off, then I better be getting high ratings

If I'm pulling off cohesive multi schemes that I know damn well you can't but I'm getting 7s, you better make sure your shit is damn near perfect cuz if it's not fuckin with mine Ima go on ya battle voting the same way which would get you a 5-6 etc

if his flows and multis are on point and the punches still fucking suck then yeah, he would get a 5-6. multi syllabics are easy

pULSE is a faggot but he's right. It's not just pulling off the skills it's the execution as well. multis might be easy but there's certainly different levels of that skill. If a dude is pulling off 10 syllable multis that are cohesive and flow well but the punch is weak you still gotta rate that dude above average because there's no way an average dude is going to be able to pull off something that technical. If you put that against someone doing two, three and four syllables that has better punches then you have to weigh those two things against each other as to who won. You still have to give a decent rating to the guy with the better technical verse even if you think the punches take it because that's just as much a part of what we do as the punches themselves. Punches that hit hard as fuck don't mean near as much if you're rhyming dog and log and cat and rat and shit.

The high standards around this place are fucking insane... seriously lmao. It's like all these kids are projecting this super strict "top tier only" voting style out of their own ego tripping contrived self-image. Can't see any other reason for this bullshit existing. Creativity is something to PRIZE... not overlook because you think JoeDizasterShmo can do it with 500 more multis.. Or JoeBiggKShmo could do it with 500 more punchlines, I've been preaching against this ego-tripping faggotry. We need to stop faulting people for what they don't do 100% FLAWLESSLY ALL THE TIME and start prizing them for what they can do well consistently. People are people. We have strong points and weak points. Stop viewing this rap shit so seriously and objectively that you can't find creativity in places that it very well exists.


In live battles you can quite literally end a punchline-less string of heavy multis, witty jabs/filer-ish lyricism, and good flow off with nothing but a vocal crescendo and you will get reaction. But here you have faggots like Subreal saying multis aren't even a dynamic because they're 'easy to do.' Homie 3 months ago you were in the tinychat talking about how you write multis with a rhyme dictionary, rethink your life and your shitty opinions.

Lol FOH with ur long ass replies. Multis are a joke, period. You aren't good because you stuff your battles full of multi syllabics while having no punchlines. The key is to maintain a respectable scheme(s) while still bringing heavy punches. Something you can't do, since you're a bad lyricist.

^If I didn't use punchlines against you chances are you might just be garbadge. What you're referring to is when I dropped more open audio battles than you've done since you signed up to this website... and still won 90% of them. So suck my dick fraggle, you the type of faggot to burn out before you even begin.

Also great job taking a subject and getting emotional about it, responding with nothing but personal bowl, and once again getting sonned like the pathetic waste of the human experience you are.

This goes back to what I was sayin earlier....if you stuff your battles full of multi syllabics and maybe you have no/weak punches, you should give credit if someone is an absolute beast at multis

if someone is doing multis you know damn well you'd never be able to pull off, stop being a smart ass with the low votes and give them that higher rating because they EXCEL at something. someone could have a battle with amazing punches and rhyme 2 syllables. I wouldnt give them a 7 if the punches were fresh & hard hitting

You're basically going into a rap battle expecting everybody to have a perfect verse the way you picture a perfect verse...if that's what its gonna take to get a 9 or a 10 then you'll never give anyone a 9 or 10...

just look at live battle leagues...the winner doesn't necessarily have the best multis or the best punches. delivery usually plays the biggest part and whatever they did great aside from delivery is 2nd
