Stuey Newton defeats Reverse Live

Recap: From KOTD's Season 1 tournament, Reverse Live gives a strong effort with a bunch of wily personals and brazen punches on his opponent Stuey Newton. But seemingly coming off a couple of battle losses, a determined Stuey, in his bag throughout the bout with a bunch of fierce name flips, more intricate punches, some stellar wordplay and stinging gun bars/personals, takes both of the opening rounds for the win before a debatable 3rd.

Verdict: Stuey Newton (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Stuey Newton - "Fuck the fan vote, I got the pole in the building!"

Stuey Newton defeats Prep

Recap: From Live From The Block, the idea of Prep thinking he'd pulled out an angle (Stuey Newton wife-ing up and having kids with a white woman despite being named after a famous Black Panther) in round 3 that'd make Stuey think about it 'on the way home' as if said angle hasn't been used on Newton a thousand times before in rap battles is funny. Either way, a competitive battle that was littered with plenty of mayhem, piercing punchlines, fiery set-ups/name flips and off-the-dome theatrics, after the two split the opening rounds, would come down to a still gritty, storytelling and cleaner-flowing Newton scoring enough haymakers to take the final round for teh win.

Verdict: Stuey Newton (W) 2-1

Favorite line: Stuey Newton - "When I catch up Prep, you better hope that he ain't catching his breath, 'cuz the 'r' [arm] coming out and he gonna have to put some pep in his step!"
