Introduction
Hello everyone! I'm back again for another segment of going over what happened this week in the Lethal Lyricist League, and this was one of the better weeks of the season so far and thats great to see! Especially after last week when we has a decent amount of no shows, our momentum seemed to have stalled, but thats not the case at all, we are just getting started LLL, this week we have a lot to go over. New battlers, new beefs, new events and a new champ. Let's get it poppin

Championship Match: Bayou vs. Allen Knight
Before we even get in to the review of this one props to both of these dudes for being ready with 30 lines before the deadline, sometimes its hard getting 60 + line battles votes, and making sure its up on time is a big part of that, thanks guys.
As far as the match goes it was a good one, they both went 30 lines, and both went wp heavy, but their styles arent just about wp. Both guys had a lot of good bars, some of Allens wordplay wasnt felt by everyone, some people calling it forced, and some didnt like the executions on the flips. didnt bring enough freshness this week, Blue tho, came with a lot of dope shit and just stayed consistent thruought. he had 4 or 5 slobber knockers, with that and his consistency he was able to sweep the votes and become season 22's first champion
Contender's Match: King vs. Meth
This was a nice battle, i think we were pretty even when it came down to it, the difference was King had almost his whole verse as personals, while mine was generics, so his just hit harder for that fact. He had one of the better (but the 200th lol) methanol nameplays on me that ive seen, and his bars about me being a racist (not a racist) were relevant and hit hard. Good battle bro u deserved the win.
Authentic. vs. High and Drunk
High and Drunk and I had some issues this week, but with that behind us, I can say I do appreciate his activity. With that being said, if he wants to contend here he will need to learn to adapt, I trust he can do this but the question is does he want to. This was his first week trying shortbar, and it shows, he has room to grow and time to learn, some of his stuff was too played, and some his stuff wasnt executed well at all. But in a new style, its to be expected. As for as Auth goes, I havent seen him drop to his quality in a few weeks, hes a lot better then what he posted this time around, but he did what he needed to to get the win, quality ideas with lacking execution. if auth works on that, he can catch someone sleeping if they fuck around and take him lightly. His 1 or 2 quality bars was enough to win this one here
Jem. vs. J. Dill
Dillinger dropped some heat this week in the first half of his drop. Gemini was dope, indie movies wasnt bad and I liked his "1-2" bar a lot as well, the last 2 bars were a lil wack lol, but he knew he had done what he needed to do. JEM's a cool dude, like him as a member of the site but hes still growing in the text battle, but every drop is better and better. His meth magazine bar was a nice current event concept, but his execution and wording just wasnt there. Could have used a lil more to bring everything together, maybe some word association or tie ins. Overall it was an interesting read, J Dill took it pretty handedly.
Mr W.Rite vs. Bomb Bard
Another cool read this week, its crazy to think that 15 years ago the LLL was actually a thing, and thats when Write was killing shit. Fast forward to now and hes got good ideas that are trapped in 2003, if he saves them, and brings them back to the future, he can be dope. This week, he had a couple of cool lines like his notre dame bar and the shopping spree shits i was fucking with both of those. Spree dropped one of the better verses ive seen from him lately, not a lot missed and he had some creative executions which was nice to see. Wording was still an issue a bit but didnt hold him back to heavy here, and he was able to get the job done
Joe Boston vs. Bash
This one surprised me to be honest, Joe came with some hot fire! i was diggin a lot of his shit, the tre flowers shit was nice and bashaud bar was cool and creative as fuck i was diggin em, Bash been on a roll as of late tho, racking dubs here and at the lime. Canister and capn planet bars were pretty dope, and he was just a lil more consistent then Joe this time around and that helped him get the win.

Blue Bayou
METH
BAYOU
Yooo whats up LLL, so Im here with new champ the GOAT Blue Bayou. Whats up my man?
Life is good man really really good... fun to be back on RB it's been a long time
So u beat Allen Knight in a bit of a beefy battle, and u guys both went 30 lines in it. What do u think is key in winning those kind of contests?
Originality/freshness and not dropping played... I think in the longer battles consistency plays a big factor so I think fresh concepts is the key there... I'd rather drop an obscure bar that is at least fresh then a new take on a concept that has been flipped a bunch of times already... easier said than done tho nowadays
i feel that, I think another thing everyone wants to know is, its 2018, word play is dead. But here Comes Blue fucking Bayou with 70 lines a week of 80 percent dope fresh wordplay, how do u come up with it man? whats ur process?
Tbh I don't think I use as much wordplay as ppl claim I do lol.... I have used a lot here on RB since i've been signed up, but I would argue the last 8 months on NC it's been a little overblown... that being said, it's always been my calling card & will always be part of the arsenal so to speak... I don't care s much about 'two-ways' like most ppl say they do, so long as it's fresh and there's a tie in that works I'm good with it
As far as my process for writing, I dunno man shit just comes to me & I run with it.. at this point I'm commited to just writing what I like and think is dope style wise... prob sounds lame/cliché but I really don't feel like I have a lot to prove anymore... I just enjoy writing & creatively telling ppl they're garbage & have ugly women
This week ull face King, whats one thing that u think they can do pretty well, and what do u think needs to be done for them to beat u if u drop like the verses uve been dropping for the last couple months?
I'm not really all that familiar with King tbh... I just remember beating him in one of my earlier battles since returning on NC.... he seems to have a ton of accolades and clout here so he's prob very good, his verse last week was kindve hot & cold to me but I'm expecting him to be hungry & that he's going to come with a dope verse
What are u thoughts on the whole RB and NC being separate sites, should we just say fuck it and merge at some point or should they be kept separate?
They should be kept separate... ppl are able to sign into both or neither, nobody should be forced to battle somewhere
bit of a style divide also from my limited perspective thus far
Other then u, who in the league do u think has an ability to bring some nice fresh wordplay at this time in text
I haven't been paying close enough attention... tbh I always liked Allen bcuz he was one of the only pretty wp heavy up and comers way back when so him calling me out fueled the fire a bit.. glad we got after it, I thought it was a dope battle
Barc for sure - I like barcs style & think he's way better then ppl give him credit for (everyone seems to nitpick on one or two wack lines he's written and ignore the dope)... anyways it's always fun when we battle ... I will smash him tho again if it goes down for the title, mark my words
Greedy had a FIRE bar against me in the 1-2 .. is he even in the reg league? haha I dunno man, im gunna try and start paying more attention to everyone's stuff moving forward
Anyone in the league right now ur hoping find their way into battling against u? Any losses in ur past u want to get revenge for?
I don't know of anyone battling right now I have a loss against I'd need to "avenge" .. i'll jut reiterate Barcotic cuz he's the homie and he called me out yesterday lol... we usually have dope battles, I gave him his pic battle last time so he can give me my 30 line reg battle this time
Of the people in the league rn, what 5 battlers do u think u have the best chance to dethrone u?
in no particular order I'd say
Barc
Bomb
Bash
King
John Dill
...I'd say hush, but im pretty sure he signed out & is only interested in the Barc picture battle
Thanks for the time Blue, if u wanna make any shoutouts or get on ur soapbox, do it here. Congrats on the championship brother
Allen Knight respect for going 30 & stepping up
& last but not least I'm going 16-0
love ya'll!

What does another week of an influx of talent mean for the league?
Lethargic, Lenox, Barcotic and Hush have signed into the league to add even more depth to the LLL. When Season 22 started, things looked a little different, after a couple weeks of controversy with Useless running the league, things seemed to be breathless. Fast forward to now and we have a solid pool of 18 text battlers full of talent hoping to duke it out, and if u told me wed be going into week 6 with a new champ, no no shows and 9 dope battles ahead of us, I'd say ur lying. The LLL is in a good spot right now, and I owe that to u guys for keeping it alive. And to answer the original question, this influx of talent may make the LLL the premier league in text right now. Lets keep up the momentum
