The Rookie Of The Year 2009
The Nominations
In the late half of 2009 the topic of a 'Rookie Of The Year' award was mentioned with some persistence. The resulting discussion led to multiple forums polls which resulted in four names being mentioned, and two of those names strongly stood out from the rest. The four names mentioned were STOY & IAmFlow (These were the two lesser touted members) and then the stand-out two rookies = RULE & Krhyme Killz. STOY was ruled out after defeats to the other three, and due to his penchant at the time for 'sniping' rather than battling established members. Whilst IAmFlow was ruled out for also sustaining defeats to Krhyme Killz and RULE, but for also being suspected of not being a geninue rookie (Which was later confirmed.) The discussions and debates fairly quickly led to the consensus on how the Rookie Of The Year should be crowned - A 16 line battle between RULE & Krhyme Killz, winner takes all.
RULE Vs Krhyme Killz
In march of 2009, Krhyme Killz first burst onto the Letsbeef battle scene, turning out a high amount of battles in his first year and quickly becoming a stand-out personality on the sites forums. He spent the majority of his first year crewless, although he eventually aligned with the formidable - Spectacular Vernacular. RULE started out life on Letsbeef in August of 2009 as Deville Rule, and soon joined forces with HVK's LB School crew that the two eventually turned into the first incarnation of 'Classick At Rhymin'. RULE & Krhyme had a short lived 'beef' during 2009 that led to there first encounter - a 16 line battle that Krhyme won by a flawless 100% margin. Fast-forward to December and the two were thrown into battle once again. The final of the Rookie Of The Year award for 2009 came down to a 16 line battle between RULE & Krhyme, at the time RULE was a member of Hoodrich All Stars with Krhyme being a member of Spectacular Vernacular. The final took place quite fittingly on December 30th of 2009, the two finalists doing a 'blind drop' battle, writing there verses and posting at the same time. The battle is linked below.
