Hollow's whole "business" angle in the second is one of the best angles ever in battle rap IMO. In the Ockwerdz battle, Ock told Hollow "I'm making money off of you" from album sales which was dope. Hollow took that concept to the next level with Clips, and made money DIRECTLY off of Clips' slogan. Crazy.
Yeah, but Ok was talking about selling 200 albums, when Hollow had already pointed out how much Ok needed to pay for features on that album. So Ok basically made it clear that he was making barely any money on them shits, if any.
“Hold up let me rewind it... ...Idc if Lux Loaded, it go through Rex T, hit Ice Head, then Clip Charlie” The way he reversed their names like that was nasty 👋🏼
im sittin here thinkin "now i know that i know why illmac don't like nome 5" then it hit me, always wanted to give a gnome 5. arguably carter's best line of his career
He said " no lie, smack I should be the one headlining nome 5.. but this guys nice too *high fives him* I always wanted to give a gnome five" it was a nice bar but nowhere near the best..
no one else credited hollow for switching his bars on the fly.. right before the kit Kat bar he started with "the aim gon change his frame" then the crowd reacted so he decided to feed into them by giving them the kit Kat line early. You'll see, right after the KitKat bar he goes back to saying "The aim gon change his frame" line. Hollow is brilliant. Number 2 all time imo
I feel yuh, u think Lux got that top spot? Cuz imo it's Lux then Hollow, cuz Hollows best performance or one of his best was against Lux and Lux still won that battle cuz his bars and performance were off the charts, to me that's why he's #1, cuz no other battler would have survived that yet alone come back stronger in the 3rd round and win it
Pat stay is great at clowning people for just being themself, see bigg k battle hollow battle, no shame battle, disaster battle where he was doing the sholder rolling bars, I think pat can hang with anyone whe it comes to breaking down ones character
I love that illmac said "when you go against somebody LIKE hollow... no, when you go against hollow..." giving hollow respect for being a one of a kid mc
Clips hardest line was the tsang tsun line.....and he took that from John John. After that first verse by hollow, I can't go back n watch any of clips battle before this.
i still love the kit kat bar... just how he delivered that one.. perfectly, you even heard the kit-kat in the crowd perfectly, not too loud, but still ... perfect execution.
@@TheJohnCooperShow It was just his last solid win. Partly because Rex wack, partly because he was particularly bad on that battle cause of personal shit.
all yall kids was saying 2-1 hollow MAYBE but debatable 2-1 dclips before this vid... like for 1-4 months after his battle... i TRULY thouhgt hollow could be edged all rounds since 1st watch.,.. even his throwaways and stuff he made mistakes on delivering was more creative tha nanything clip came with... clips is a broken record... his best shit is tay roc and best is vses T rex... T rex is timeless , clips round vs rex... but hes literally had 99% trash
for real. this is how you can tell a seasoned fan to a scrub. clips (and even dna) spit these easily predictable bars that SOUND complex and are easy to get on first listen in the venue. then you watch the video and break it down and they're just simple word association lines.
Clips didn’t have a 2nd cause he used that material in his first cause he was getting killed. The only written part in the 2nd was the Multiple Choice. Just my theory cause his first round was like 7-8 minutes and clips never raps that long.
F. Tonkonst I need them to review lux vs hollow. the clips 3-0 chants and him agreeing will spur some of the greatest live feed reactions ever. clips got 3-0d in that battle as well
To keep it a buck I always preferred Hollow's 3rd to Clips' 3rd, even though he got booed. Folks said Charlie was spazzing but everything he spit that round was mad basic and overrated, the Shang Tsung line was mediocre at best.
26:30 What you're conveying here, Illmac, is called the denouement. Never thought about applying it to battle rap, but that makes sense since the best BR is a form of writing/ storytelling.
I fuck wit Mook but I see him more like the "godfather" of this battle rap shit, Hollow is the king of this at the moment n probably going down as da GOAT
Between this and Illmac vs DNA, I don’t know whose first round did better at stripping away someone’s power. Runners up: third rounds of Rone vs Charron and JC vs Chef Trez
randybadthomas but he didn't do the breakdown HALF as good lyrically and performance wise as Hollow did. Like Illmac said, I saw thru Clips entire style after this battle and never looked at him quite the same
nope not mad u sound like a female right now and im not friends with him on facebook he foolow me on IG and Twitter and he bout to be rapping on some of my beats dude or should i say girl cuz u acting like one
Eric Caple exactly. This is the thing, so many references get overlooked when you don't watch the battle in the moment. Its not fair to do these revisionist battle reviews years later as things that seem like they fall flat were fire in the moment
This is the closest thing to the fairest judgement and a system to start scoring Ws to Ls...without biased fans of their favorites...This should be Blown up for the culture
BDot and Illmac are great people for these RYD commentaries. Not only are they very knowledgable concerning battlerap skills and psychology, they also have just the right amount of humor and dont interrupt too much to unnessesarily show off their "knowledge" like lush one. Illmac and bdot should do this more often.
One of my favorite watches. You guys have talked about moments in battles that you remember being part of how you decide who won, and in this one the “Guess what room im in” part wins the battle for me. I come back just for that part.
b dot is cool af. Especially since he doesn't seem to front like some dude. He genuinely asks illmac about some aspects of battle rap with nothing but respect and an open mind. props
Crazy to hear Avo talk about Geechi's potential in retrospect. It's 2023, and Geechi surpassed nearly every other battle rapper in terms of relevance, battled Lux, and is at the top of his game. Avo called it 🤷🏽♂️

you guys should do LOADED LUX VS HOLLOW with Diz, B Dot, Ilmac, Chase, and Thesaurus
thatd be sick.
yea yea yea do it! it's my b-day too so ya'll get some extra karma points too :D
don;t include Chase....he kinda sucks...just like Nocando...
I'm so down with this idea
change chase with cortez and we good
no one breaks people down like hollow :)the 4 bar kitkat and the hole set up still fire !!!!
david banner lux too

RUIN YOUR DAY not this one. Or the one from yesterday
RUIN YOUR DAY for reals?! hell yea you just made my day
Give us Danny Myers vs XCEL. Dope Battle
RUIN YOUR DAY Roc and Cal was after Pat and Cal. Roc kept saying "I'm not Pat Stay" in that battle because Cal kept bumping him
It's dope to hear battle rappers on here cuz they can analyze everything and give us insight for what the battlers were thinking
i still love the kit kat bar... just how he delivered that one.. perfectly, you even heard the kit-kat in the crowd perfectly, not too loud, but still ... perfect execution.
Calicoe battled Pat Stay before Tay Rock because Rock was saying he not pat stay.
Jamond allen Yeah it was Roc vs Surf at NOME 5.
i forgot how bad hollow did clips in this battle. After Rex, clips was never the same.
What happened agsinst trex?
@@TheJohnCooperShow It was just his last solid win. Partly because Rex wack, partly because he was particularly bad on that battle cause of personal shit.
I love this battle. Hollow 1st and 2nd completely wiped Clips out the building

SteelersLakersFan clips 3rd was great as well tho he just couldn't keep up with the first 2. He had too much filler.
SteelersLakersFan Clips could've stolen the 2nd but he focused on Cortez, and that other dude. So yeah, Hollow 2-1.
i wouldnt say completely, clips 1st round was pretty good
This is a dope ass channel very underrated
"What you know about preparin' for a battle when your grandmother bit by a bee?" is the hardest line ever spat in a battle by ANYONE
Illmac is waaaaay smarter than most people. It's dope.
This show helps you appreciate the genius of wordsmiths and the nuance of battle rap.
Hollow's 1st Round is Legendary! Anyone who said Clips won come talk to me. I offer psychotherapy. Factory!
Clips won bro 2-1

That's pretty dumb he got to know he already lost the first
Should've saved his bars for the second and third
If Clips had momentum going into the "Hollow vs John" scheme it would have taken the roof off that shit.
Mike B Idk.... i "saw it comin a mile away"
But he didn't 😂
Hollows crowd control in this one is God like, that first round he showed all his skills except rebuttals cuz he went first LoL
B dot with Chase production 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥can't wait to see what they do.

Actually, Hollow ended first round with "sike i lied" but SMACK called time before

Hollow 3-0

word its Tay Roc vs Surf
Lord Leo yeah that's the only thing that kinda annoys me sometimes is knowing the battles. Just a small thing though. Not big lol
This was the 2nd time Clips mentioned paperwork. He asked for lux to expose him.
almost none of those battles happened on that card lol

He covered every aspect of Clips, from him being friendly with the ones he is battling. The predictable bars etc.
