Kung Fu vs Wrestling, Round 2 grapple is overrated. ;)

it is a complex vote, you never defined 'better' and I want to be precise on why the winner won.

it's unrated, so be as harsh as you want, curious what you think.

I think I have a similar singing style (deeper toned but not massively deeper) than Keane's singer and therefore I am very, very similar to a lot of that 'type' such as the Killers (not British, I know), John Lennon and even if you were to tone his voice to go deep instead of high when it went loud, James Blunt.

I can genuinely sing a long to those songs when I'm home alone and hit every note and stuff, I just got no interest in the fame (nor would I admit and want my identity revealed if I'd done a youtube cover of them). So, the reason I like that kind of soft-soft rock is a lot to do with my own ability to sing along to it.

OHH SYMPATHeeeeyyy where HAVE YOU GAAAWN
I'm gettin old and I need somethin' to reLAAi on
so TELL me Wheeen you're gonna let me in
I'm gettin TIRED and I need SOMewhere to begIIIiiin

no, that song has a lot of edm in it. the genre 'pop' doesn't exist, it means popular at the time aimed to please the general/generic audience.

Pop has gone from being rock-oriented to being edm-oriented from the previous generation to now. Before the rock generation it was rock 'n' roll and country oriented.

back in the day, Mozart was a pop artist, now we call him classical.

does Oasis and Keane count as what you see as good rock or are they too soft?

I got a lot of stuff that someone into softer British rock would like but I wasn't sure the others would enjoy it, it's also why I didn't go for an obvious choice like The Beatles

Thanks for the votes.

I'm shocked Reece docked me for the very Round I had put a song I was sure he'd love and that same Round I reckoned Zedvictor wouldn't enjoy, he really did.

I played it very relatively safe this time vs any of these I've done before but I could afford to as I felt that only someone into the very specific type of oldschool soft rock that BPD was presenting would vote him to win and that niche may still have enjoyed my round 3, camila cabello and the 'colors' Round.

I liked BPD's Round 4 and 3 quite a bit and actually personally don't dislike his music choice as much as you guys do but I was sure he was going too far in that direction that if I stuck to solid all-rounders except the Round he brought rap (where I gave an all-rounded rap kind of), I'd secure victory.

I am actually very curious what Ramshutu scores though because Ramshutu's taste is both towards my edm stuff and towards BPD's oldschool rock stuff

give a split of 7-0, 5-2 or 4-3 depending how close you think it is,

Alternatively just give 7

don't do 6-1 that is a pointless split

I'm not necessarily saying your way can't win but this crowd here has almost 0 voters on these debaters that are into hiphop itself, they're just taking a dip into the genre so idk if your 'average' is correct but we'll see, I've already been proven wrong in the past 2 debates.

nice, can always rely on ramshutu to secure my defeat even when opponent flaked

keep your ears close to the ground if you want fire you'll enjoy the burn of.

go talk to someone who hasn't blocked you, or are you incapable of that

please think before you type, what you just said is insulting to nobody except transgender people that you just trivialised the suffering of.

This is what you think good music is:

not true, I specifically picked songs that had good delivery and flow, meaning they sound better than they are necessarily lyrically.

You just got no clue about rap, you like really annoying raps on overly synthed electronic beats.

"In this ting I'm nobody's learner
No L plate, 18 Reg
Yeah I work, but I'm not a worker
You do late, I do further
Oi yo
AM lurker
See you in the morning
Nah I don't curl up I just roll out all day earner
Oi yo
Old man from young, cold and stun, might get spun, mic get stung, riddim get D D D D D Done
See how I make this run"

try to call that mumble rap, you don't know shit

Let me show you some bars from Jelani's song:

"Tango Lima
So many sirens
So many beemer
Man I stay heated without the fever
Man in control without the fifa
Oi yo
Don't follow the leader
How you could tell man that I ain't deeper
Come from wiley, don't know Anita
Don't know losing, don't know defeater
Oi yo
Bredda I'm done
Have I not told you I'm not the one
Man I had no olders from young
Never say how high
Never say jump
Oi yo
Take big thumps and I still get back up never been slumped
I'm a big man won't hold my tongue
Never heard a lie that I ain't heard once so I tell them"

I don't need to research shit, I already know it. It actually was Lil Wayne and Birdman that inspired it, not Gucci Mane who copied them and got credit when really what he invented was new age Trap. Mumbling and being shallow was already being done before Gucci did it.

Jelani Blackman is not a mumble rapper that's a bullcrap insult, neither is Hopsin.

holy shit reece's vote triggered me beyond belief, he has no clue at all about rap i am done ever engaging in this shit

you think hopsin's song was mumble rap?!!! the chorus was crystal clear WTF

how the FUCK was nobody's son mumble rap? really gtfo

the song I linked to is the one I meant, I changed my mind and changed the links but forgot to change the song name

FUCK i WROTE A WRONG SONG NAME

I meant sacrilege of fatal arms

giving word burglar 10/10 and sa-roc forever 5/10 alone talks of the taste of ramshutu.

you should have 3 judges, this way it won't end in a tie (unless the judge ties it) but one biased judge can't ruin it.

It should be that you both agree on one and the opponent and you pick the other 2 personally.

you should have voted which you enjoyed more, as long as it was rap

I can't say I enjoyed a single second of that track.

your taste seems to prefer softer, emotional rap but I was banking on a voter like that showing up on a website that isn't as rap-oriented as this.

My selection would have included my Round 1 and 2 probably even for a hiphop oriented crowd but my latter 3 rounds may be different (thought my round 3 is impressive af, there's other Apathy or Pharaohe songs that are more 'wow factor' for the rap fan crowd).

I didn't expect a fan of hard EDM to prefer softer rap but I appreciate the vote and understand your type/taste. Do you prefer edm with very little lyrics then?

curious if you'd want to vote on this

you always troll everything anyway, expected nothing more from you. You didn't possibly tie that many

ther'es so much more to rap than just instant aural pleasure, like lyrics and flow of the lyrics

you only won this by a troll vote.

curious if you'd care to vote, pls explain a tiny bit on each

joke of a vote. honestly just a joke.

pls vote

needs to be more focused on an element of rap tracks if we rematch, so that we can actually debate not just upload links. If we do too many of these rated, they'll ask to shut it down.

why is bigpimpdaddy voting Pro?

Your Round 5 was very strong, I liked your Round 1 also. The rest are not at a tier of production and rapping that I'd land here but Aesop Rock is a skilled rapper, don't get me wrong.

Your round 5 I was considering to use but found the lyrics and delivery style may not please many.

does your sarcasm ever bore you

"the cat has next to 0 iq by nature,"

I meant EQ, fuck.

in his ruthlessness, yes

it is extremely obvious I meant Nanno, there isn't a character named Nonnu in it that I know of.

I typod, Nanno not Nonnu. sorry about it

okay

no because it is there to avoid a bullshit kritik by Con

and where is that called ff in your pasted description?

perhaps read what you post and then look at the debate...

how is this an FF?

he did not fully forfeit
