2013 GC: RD1 - Obey Vs Tha Dog Vs Manhattan (No Showed) - (Tha Dog Wins 3-0)

[Sean Cron]

Tha dog: you did good with staying on topic. I feel like the first half of your verse was the best. a lot of subtle comparisons and feelings related to envy. I feel the end could have been stronger, and there wash't one continual narrative. It did stay on the topic of envy well though. some good rhymes and flow here

Obey: I really appreciated how this verse was put together. all of the paragraphs were about the same same size wise and conceptually. and the narrative was pretty dope. I took it as 1. guy gets robbed, 2. he plans to give everyone money, 3. he throws money from rooftop or plane, 4. he caught the money on fire. so as i understand it, it's kinda like don't be greedy, everyones greedy, we could teach them a lesson by catching the money on fire. which is a decent concept. I felt like the ending could have been a little bit more of a twist or there could have been a few lines to really tie the greed to envy. it was a little more apparent in the start and I understand the connection.

Overall: pretty close to me, I wanted to give it to obey at first, but after a few reads, tha dog was a bit more on point here, no h8.

MVGT: Tha Dog
