Race to 2000 Posts
 

I figured five years after the original 'Race to 1000 Posts' was completed that we should do a sequel. A race to 2000 posts.

Original Post:
https://www.letsbeef.com/forums/show...highlight=1000

The original thread was started by Punk, and won by Student. It took 436 days to get to 1000 posts.

Let's go.

M'kay

Posting to see how many posts I have

Considering active members are way less today and we’re looking for twice as many posts, this will only take about 4-5 years.

change my thread from 1,000 to 2,000 being that It made it to 1k posts.

Depends how dedicated ya'll are. Actually I think if you get a few decent conversations going in here you can make progress pretty quickly. Just treat it as an 'off topic' thread.

Shit I'm down :high:

Guys, were almost to 10!

I’m ok with posting some of the worst bars ever here to bump the post count a bit.

Person who gets the 2000th post should get 2k credits.

Number 10

Might fuck around and post every single one of Bnas’ battles in here to breakdown

Gonna post some throwaways. Teach these kids a lesson or two.

For instance:


One punch ya lumped up. We'd struggle to get ya COFFIN TO CLOSE
Leave ya whole head like my freestyles. That shit just bumps OFF OF THE DOME!

Take notes yunguns

Here's my throwaway bar that I may or may not use in a battle.

You got no punches, don't step up to the line, just "hit the muay thai pads" YOU GAY PRINGLE!
When it comes to battling? "You throw nothing in the ring" like planning TO STAY SINGLE!

PROBLEM CLOCKA, I'm the PROBLEM DOCTA// Dog you wouldn't go hard if you were alive after I SHOT YA// Ya pitch is 'pure wack', off centered and OLD FASHIONED// The kid is 'keystylin' and Ima still give your head a BASHING// If you wanna fuck with the kid then STEP UP// Off the top flowin crazy ya no I'M NUTS// You's better 'step the fuck back' before the kid turns 'subway' and gives you a CLEAN CUT// And I aint talkin about no ARMY SHIT// Dog your just a BARBIE BITCH// Your flow's off and your bars deliver that kinda SNOBBY PITCH..Yah ya no the team, SaVage Scriptz all day, Bnas, LETS GET IT

PROBLEM CLOCKA, I'm the PROBLEM DOCTA// Dog you wouldn't go hard if you were alive after I SHOT YA//

Analytics:

- 3 syllable scheme (basic)
- Repetitive usage of the word "PROBLEM"
- Poor conceptually - to say someone wouldn't go hard if they survived you shooting them seems backwards

Bar Grade: C-

Ya pitch is 'pure wack', off centered and OLD FASHIONED// The kid is 'keystylin' and Ima still give your head a BASHING//

Analytics:

- 3 syllable scheme + broken/choppy execution
- Schemes have poor wording (faSHION and baSHING end differently in sound and rhythmic value)
- No punch or concept of a punch present
- Bar is criminally short, and not developed at all

Bar Grade: D

If you wanna fuck with the kid then STEP UP// Off the top flowin crazy ya no I'M NUTS// You's better 'step the fuck back' before the kid turns 'subway' and gives you a CLEAN CUT//

Analytics:

- 3 syllable scheme (basic)
- extremely played concept by relating "crazy" and "nuts"
- Broken scheme (STEP up, IM nuts, CLEAN cut have different sounds and rhythmic value)
- Concept is pretty decent considering the time this was posted (subway/clean cut)

Bar Rating: C

The last bar I didn't feel like doing, but yeah...breaking Bnas shit down could run us up to 2K easy.

I TOLD YOU if ya get this ROYAL ENRAGED, TURDS will SOIL YOUR FACE, FOR Im taking a dump, stuck in the THRONE ROOM with no TOiLET PAPER!

Very relevant in the times of corona.

Real talk tho those those during-the-shit bars

The TP struggle so real, Nick. @Musashi

Here he is again. It's the lord of the ring. I came back two tower over you. It's the return of the king!

I read this and thought more so that Easton has no idea what he's talking about than Bnas. Dude's reading rhymes line CLEAN CUT / STEP UP and saying "3 syllable scheme is basic". Wtf?

Lmao I was waiting on someone to catch it :D

El em ay oh

Fashion and Bashing is also fine as a rhyme.

Fashion bashin' is a hate crime

Whoa there killa. No it ain't. Myself, and others have recently been scolded and often our whole verses dubbed "total throwaways" because one or two sounds in a syllable of ONE fucking multi was off...not naming names *cough* but we established from that point forward we're keeping that same energy lol

Okay but see the thing is I don't care what those people think or said that hurt your feelings.

Just going strictly off rap, those are defo fine to rhyme.

Eth is right. If you need to be a total text nerd drop the hard ING. Fashion and bashin' is a perfect rhyme unless you have a weird ass accent or something. "Keeping that same energy" in this case just equates to "someone said it was wrong so now I think it's wrong too". I would probably not "keep that energy".

I was more referring to the way we read bars. There should be a universal standard for judging battles. Myself and others were judged a way, so I figured we could just accordingly. That's all.

You guys should dead ass check out this producer. He makes different types of beats both heavy, lo-fi and a fire mix of both.

Holy shit that battle is fire. S/o Punk and Boro for putting on a great show to get us through quarantine haha.

Also, to everyone reading this: please go vote on Saaxxx vs Kiwi Rookie of the year final https://www.letsbeef.com/battle_deta...n=tb&id=517748

I had to get X to reopen it because 3 votes is just not good enough for a tourney final. We have 2 days to try get this to 10 votes, please get to it if you can.

Fashion and Bashing are just fine...if anyone is being that much of a stickler, link an example and call them out. We’re trying to get this to 2000 posts. A little back and forth would help.

There will never be a universal standard because any type of voting is opinion even if there’s criteria to base those opinions on. Everyone interprets things differently, has different accents, and different preferences that all create unconscious bias. It’s not like judging like the XGames or something because a 720 is a 720 no matter who does it. Best you can do is have dialogue with those who have differing opinions and try to understand why they think the way they do.

there was this forum game "overrated/underated" that i liked, however i'd like to bring it back in this thread with a few changes.

so it'll be "grade me" and whoever is posting can leave a "report card" of any battler of their choosing. i'm not gonna instruct people on how they conduct they own ratings but, i'd recommend considering their strength as a writer over their popularity or site impact.

i'll start with somebodies bars i know pretty well @Rieper

so with lock, i've always felt like what he did best is execute punches with almost no margin of error, and that's just basically in the structure. his punch strength varies but it's rare to every see a bar that's bad coming from lock. his concepts are usually pretty average, but he's the textbook example of how perfecting your craft can pay off.

i've seen him do many different styles of battles and bars, but where i feel like he shines best is in concept and topical battles. he's actually a pretty talented writer and i wouldn't be shocked to find out he wrote novels or something like that on the side.

he also doesn't get enough respect as an audio battler. he has a near perfect cadence, and manages to put some swagger and impressive bursts of energy into his bars when he spits. i'd check his battle with detri mental in the audio gc for an example of how impressive he can be.

overall? i'd give him an A-

i don't think he's the best battle rapper out there, but i sure as fuck think he's the most consistent (which some could argue makes him the best) i also personally prefer other styles i've seen, so maybe he deserves an A+ but this is my personal grade.

For those who wanna elevate..

Here's some more Bnalysis, we'll start with his legendary opener vs MCBeast:
https://www.letsbeef.com/battle_deta...n=tb&id=517756

Bar: now someone tell me this PUNKS NAME, bone yard? sounds like me when I'm boning his girl in his back yard WHAT SHAME!

Expo: Bnas bringing genius from bar one. He says he doesn't know his opponents name, so through power of deduction and clever use of Occam's Razor (that which uses the fewest assumptions is likely correct), reasons that it HAS to be bone yard. I can't even figure out why. That's how much smarter Bnas is than me.

Anyway Bnas then makes the incredible observation that "bone yard" is similar to "boning" in a "yard". That's elite wordplay, and also serves to paint a detailed picture of Bnas' supernatural powers of stealing bitches and committing public acts of gross indecency.

And finally, of course, he says "what shame" rather than "what a shame" to flex his lexical wisdom, and force a horrible shitty multi.

No wonder he keeps ducking me. He knows I'm not ready to face him yet, and he's avoiding me for my own good. Nothing but respect for MY number one battler of all time.

Looooooool

More Bnalysis from this gem of a battle with artdizzl3:

https://www.letsbeef.com/battle_deta...n=tb&id=516917

shovel to ya family tree, that's how you SMASH THE CACTUS VEINS the reactions I get insane, fans shouting "BODY! BODY! BODY!", and I BLAST THE BASTARDS FRAME, every 'bar I spit'.. everyone in the crowds reaction making that JAZ THE RAPPER FACE

Bnas once again showing how much of an absolute wordsmith he is. No one else could possibly try to connect family tree with cactus veins like that. He’s playing 4-D Chess spitting bars like that. Also, SMASH THE CACTUS VEINS? That rhyming is so fresh and so unheard of that I immediately was in awe of his lyrical prowess when he spat that. He then spits about how everyone screaming body body body! Because he’s got a very prosperous live battle career up in Canada, Ontario (he calls it that, and I’m not one to question the GOAT), and it’s no secret that famous names like Organik, SMACK, and Jaz The Rapper come to Thunder Bay to watch his live battles against top-tier names like Yue. That’s why he mentions Jaz The Rapper. He’s speaking on such advanced tiers that most will never even fathom reaching that it might’ve gone over heads the first time he spat.

Bnas is a true lyrical genius.

i could just mention how many inches my dick measures by and take this post up to 2000 cumulatively with one inch every post but imma let everybody chip in instead and send a dick pic in the end.

Nobody - Lollypop....
