Favourite battle of the year so far?
Lotta talk about Iron Solomon vs B Magic being the best battle to come out so far this year, personally I still feel Rum Nitty vs Ave and Danny Myers vs B-Dot were better battles, Chilla Jones vs Quantum Physics too. Don't Flop hasn't had any battles close to contention this year.




QP vs Chilla Jones. I think both rappers brought both of their trademarked styles and really showed off for the crowd. I wasn't too fond of chilla use of some played angles but beyond that this is a perfect battle for me. It's thought provoking, it's raw, both rappers are trying to outperform the other. It really resonated with me and not many battles have done that this year.
b-dot/myers is very clearly at the top for me. the angle-based approaches from both work out so perfectly. all of the others you mentioned are up there too.
Who would you like to see B-Dot battle next? I think Th3 Saga, Swave Sevah, Quest Mcody, or Quantum Physics would be dope, for differing reasons.
th3 saga would be very interesting because i would love to see how b-dot would go about fleshing out his polemics against christianity into fully-fledged battle angles, but i'm really not much of a saga fan so i doubt i would like it on both sides. i feel similarly about dizaster: b-dot would probably approach that match-up in a very creative way, but i doubt dizaster would. i doubt swave would be able to keep up with b-dot's pen and it'd seem lopsided (unless the battle happened in new york), but quest and qp would be solid match-ups. him vs verb would also have a lot of potential, and i know verb has said he might be down on twitter at some point.
Swave Sevah would be the typical "clash" battle, seeing how B-Dot's themes and wordplay stack up against someone with real talk, personals, and a demanding delivery, I think it would be a good test for B-Dot, I just feel in general though that Swave is really underrated.
I don't think Aye Verb or Dizaster would bring their A Game for B-Dot at the moment, like Danny Myers is really quite the exception to a lot of members of the Top Tier in his commitment to always put a lot of effort in, which is why I suggested Quest Mcody as an option - he only really has something to gain from a B-Dot battle at this stage in his career.
