All I can say is thank FUCK that my prediction was off. Shoutout to Manny, Lock, Shodan, Babylon, Bleu, Esso and others for making sure that abysmal period of LB was phased out.
Everything I said in here is still true 5 years later.
Grief, RULE wasn't sharked on ANYTHING. The guy used EtH in a tee (Affinity) against me and none of the voters even said a word about it despite it being 33% of his entire verse.
It's not a different style. Writing :-
"Champ? Its you that we see? Nah You shame us when you under take a bad verse like PROFESSIONAL WRESTLERS (Cena, Sheamus, Undertaker)"
is ALWAYS the incorrect way to do wordplay. If you can be "unconventional" and deliver things that are technically bad well, no harm done. But if you do something wrong and it's pointed out, theres no complaints to make.

That’s forced wp. That doesn’t even work ONE WAY. Lol if his whole verse was that bad then yeah you got robbed. ETH/Aff????
I slept on it, thought it over, and I’m just taking it as everyone wanting cleaner wp which is good. I see the error in what I was saying now...
BUT, we need to always take a step back and consider if we are condemning a stylistic choice or just shit wp. I think my “Orange” argument still stands from the first post.

He had two Aff/EtH bars in one battle I believe, but that's what I mean. Using RULE as a point of "no one called him out" is because people were blinded. I used to completely slate Jacoby because he wrote like that 24/7 back in the day.
Your orange argument doesn't stand because it does work both ways. Because you say "Knock knock - who's there - Orange", that makes Orange the first name as per the joke. So that means it goes:-
Knock Knock
Who's There?
Orange
Orange Who?
Orange Yougladtoseeme (a name)
Knock knock
Who's There?
Orange
Orange Who?
Aren't you glad to see me?
If the "stylistic choice" doesn't pay off, then the things done incorrectly should be pointed out to me.
I do sort of agree these days that maybe people shouldn't go overboard with conventional writing. I see a lot of guys really similar to how I used to write, and if you don't have the creativity to come up with hard as fuck bars, it doesn't really work out. So I'd encourage people thinking a little bit out there and off the wall. I try to replicate DaDDiO's more out there bars like:-
Your RAPING IS SO *YAWN* that I \vkjn dafbklbaz dlknfd shit, I ACTUALLY DOZED OFF
That's out there and really creative for a text battle and that sort of stuff I liked the idea of using. Like in my tag tournament battle where I wrote like 2 lines dissing Skizzo to show how little I respected my opponents.

That’s another variation of the Orange joke. The banana joke in tandem with the orange line doesn’t make sense 2 ways in the form of a statement. “Orange you glad”? See what I mean? Who says “Orange you glad?” Are you asking the Orange a question or the person answering a joke?
See how nit picky that is? The nitpick Missed the idea entirely. Lol THATS what I’m arguing against.
But yeah EtH. I sort of appreciate the compliment you gave me back then. Like I said, I’ve been around and thrown some good 2 way wp in my day. But when I don’t people take issue with. By all means I’m not saying theyre wrong, but why criticize the person as if they don’t know good wp? It may just be different. It should be considered. However Overall I do agree with you. Good points
