Im not looking to argue but basically @ Dave , you're saying that the old vets then are better than the one's now, but i disagree. just look at the difference in text battles from both eras: I don't really read Rican battles but look at Grizz and diss and Ill battles - they utilize some pretty unique wordplay and have relevant setups throughout. now from the old vets, you can see their battles and notice a decrease in complexity. they utilize idioms and some unimpressive basic wordplay with rhymes that are offfffffffff and setups that are either weak or irrelevant. only reason they are put above is because they are the only examples new cats look at to want to be great, which put these vets above the pedestal. IMO if Jason dropped an open on a next new account, i bet ILLoKWENT can win by a big margin.
These vets may be great, but only for their era. Shit changes. What do yall think

Only way to find out is some old vets stop making comebacks just to battle old folks.... @ RULE should set up some Dope shit... New ILLMANIA Concept... Golden Age vs. NewEra.
MAN DOWN vs. DaDDiO
Dissizit vs. Jason
Grizzeat vs. UA
ILLoKWENT vs. Askari
or w.e

DaD is dope though, no doubt, but no just his aura alone is enough to win him a battle seeing how people vote nowadays
there's some of these old vets that im sureeee i can beat but only if they came on as a multi, cause rep unknowingly plays a big role in votes as i see
