man crowd reactions are ill...

heres a tip.......write a lot of dope bars with simple multis for dissing and memorise every single one...to the point where you can be versatile with them... the more you do that, the more things will come naturally to you...

live battling is a lot like martial arts... you learn hundreds and hundreds of moves but when it comes to the battle, you only have to use a few...

but thats the trick, memorise bars... flip them around with the same rhymes...

thats the best way to start, often youll start to become a lot more versatile and just make shit up on the spot compleatly.. some of your best bars too will come up just on the spot...

but i swear to you, battling online just doesent compare to being on a stage with a crowd.. get into it man...
