@Joe Boston @ILLunatic

Check

@ILLunatic punch due tonight

Let’s be honest...

Joe’s loyal as fuck, so much it hurts to poke fun
That’s why I chose to praise his punches, but I can’t seem to quote 1

For the dick ur wife been jonsing honestly i wanna tell u were boning
So hide ur face like a Masquerade or plan to disappear quicker than Ronin

Aight bar from ill. Couldn't been more violent or added more of a personal appeal to the setup. Just light at best. Joe's set up could of been better but the punch was fresh and current. Best bar in a while from him.

Vote Joe

Ok, pretty close to me.. first one was cheeky and nicely worded, tho not the hardest punch. Perhaps I'm missing something.
Second was slightly more intricate and relevant, I liked the general idea here.

I'll give to Joe B for having a more creative angle imo.

V.Ill for the better and more solid punch. To much going on with Joe punch.

Idk if ill was going for an appraise/quote punch but joe had the better attempt tho ill was close to having a dope punch & taking this.

@Letterman need you to vote

Idk this is a weird battle to judge. Ill had a direct straightforward bar and Joe had the better concept/punch but his set up was essentially just filler. It doesn’t really tie into the Masquerade/disappear thing cuz I don’t see where it connects with you fucking his wife. Ill’s was more concise and better put together but Joe’s concept and punch were better so I gotta give him credit for that also. I’m gonna give the slight edge to ILL.

v/ILL

3-2
