Post all questions concerning text battling here.

Either myself or Kapone will try to get back to you as soon as possible.

I am an idiot for asking this. I should have peeped Chrit's record and asked around before saying something this ascenine.



Never come in my forum talking shit

^^^This kid gave a perfect example what not to do in this forum.

All other posts like this will be promptly deleted.

why should i ask you questions about battling? what do you know? nah...u probably know a lot more than me...i probably have some ?'s myself tryin to think of some...

what do you look for in a rap battle, and how are these things (the things u look for) accomplished by the writer?

i hope you can answer that, it may be to broad...but try please.

another:

it is hard to incorporate punchlines while also having multiple rhyming, which do you consider more important to have? (im working on incorporating punches with multi rhyming now..it aint easy.)

sometimes i am at a shortage of punches...any suggestions?...ie..what to look for that will make it easier to use a word in a punchline (such as many meanings for the same words)

also, i like how you man handled that guys post, that gave me a laugh...thanks for answering any questions you can...i'll check this later peace.......

As far as multi's go.. I'll leave that for Kapone... As you have prolly seen I dont incorporate many.

Punchlines I do know however. First off you should never be short on punches. Use the site to your advantage. Peep old battles, check into the kids crew, read a profile nah mean. Just do your homework and personals will come easily. Personal punches hit much harder than generic ones so try to concentrate on them.

Other things to keep an eye on in your battles is wordplay and flow... For I guide to wordplay peep Quo's post. TYry to keep a relatively complex flow... dont take the easy way out on lines... Also always try to think outside the box.. look at old Mind Theory battles for perfect examples of this.

I hope this answers some of your questions

YEA IT HELPS...I PEEPED QUO'S IT HELPED A LITTLE BUT I KNEW MOST OF IT...(WHICH AT THIS POINT I SHOULD LOL) I'LL LOOK FOR MIND THEORYS THO...THANKS FOR THE SUGGESTION.

he uses a lot of products to make punches

ex:
he said i ground you like cofee...blah blah blah...so i max-well lol (cofee and maxwell...

lol @ chrit

yea i use multies...

most of the time a punch is about ur opponet bein gay.. and therefore its played so punches arnt my stratagy

as you can tell i dont got the best record.. 9-3

but i havent lost in 9 trys, and its cuz i figured this:

punches are good for the haha factor..

but multies are good for the ooo awwww factor, what would appeal more laffing, or being amazed by some ones vocab...

so to make a long lecture short...

a punch can be incorperated with multies, the punch is just encased in multies [ima give an example, im not trying, im just in a hurry]

suckin penis is your thang definatly < 4 sylables
shoulda known better than to step-to-me < word play

theres one bar with 3 vital ingrediants in it

Ive posted like 2 battles and tha peeps said i didnt do it right or some shit .. Wat they talkin bout .. Is there a certain way ta Post up tha battles or suttin .. ?

yes when you create a thread you must check the box that says start a battle.......

how do you get pictures at the bottom

Go to Q and A

not the right place for this

sorry...i jus had to answer...


^i think punchez are more important...after all it iz a battle...multiez work better when ur doin audio...if ur doin text than punchez iz really tha way to go in my opinion...


^look, read, and observe anything and everything u can...u can make a punch out of even tha simplest thingz...read a dictionary, watch tv...

thank you, i was in a hurry wen i wrote that cuz i only had an hour to record and edit and such... anyway...

hes right

a punch is a vital part.. but when its a punch thats incased in multies it is alot better

What do most ppl look for in a good battle?

Alot of people use this kind of breakdown
Personals: Very important!!! They are punches that are directed at the specific person... like with you:
Must be anemic, lashed this kid like he was born-to-flow/

Punches: basically anything taking a shot at an opponent

Wordplay: Being able to use double meanings and whatnot...
Peep quotients guide to this for excellent examples

Flow: The readablility of the verse... how it flows when reading...

Multis: Having several parts of a line ryhme....
About to hit this bitch so hard in the ass he'll spit shit/

Meta's: Metaphors... exactly what it says... Peep RB legends and Mind Theory's battles... He was great at these

And thas pretty much it
If you are ill at all this the battle is yours

hey kapone what does D.R stand for?

dick ryder...

someone who votes based solely on who's battling....

not who had a better verse

hey thanks man i appreciate it

no problem

Chrit is a stud in the WEC...lol .. =)

so am I *sniffles*

is it a "no-no" to use complex vocabulary words that some/most people wouldnt know from the top of there head?

lmao...he said "no-no"...

anyway...

it isn't bad if u use complex vocabulary...however...if u use so much of it that people gotta bust out a dictionary jus so they can read ur verse, that'z a "no-no"...

an explanation usually helps, but too many can really disrupt your flows verse and cost you

in a battle:
should every line/bar(ex:10/10 bars) consist of either word play/punches/multis?

every bar should consists of at least one of those...the more the better...if you can put each of those elements in every line, you wont lose...

ex of wordplay:
just usin three words to rhyme with one word with three syllables...ill show u an example with four syllables/ four words...
consistently/ persist-at-me

born2flow bitches consistently while he persists-at-me/
i got verbal gifts hanging around with-me like christmas-trees/

edited took it out sry chrit...

sry chrit that shit just annoys me...i'll edit it myself then...
