We talk on the following;

31:23 - Chess vs K-Shine on Summer Madness X, five years in the making since Redemption/SM5. Does Chess deserve this battle? Will Shine be able to adapt into the small room? What type of Shine will we get? Will Chess' hunger help him get the W

59:36 - Recap of (Glu)Eazy Da Block Captain vs Cortez - did the rookie school the vet in this scenario... Somehow this leads to conversation on JC and whether he deserves Loaded Lux

03:44: Tsu Surf vs Cortez - has Surf put pressure on himself by assuring that Cortez will not win a minute or a round? What would be the ideal stage for this battle if it happens? Do we really want to see this battle, if so why?

No more Zoom sessions as we finally returned back to the studio to give you (the battle rap community) the content you love and need... We speak on the week of battle rap as well as Chris The Capo having the first part of his 3 shots of Wray & Nephew.

5:15 - Battle Rap Fans vs Battlers: Are battle rap fans scrutinising the battlers too much and being too harsh or are the battlers being emotional (word to Beloved)? As well as speaking on DNA's 'You Don't Deserve Me', as we should be giving him plus more consistent battlers the GOAT looks they deserve and not be ridiculing them.

29:41 - Popularity Over Talent: Is Battle Rap Business over Bars? Are we hypocritical as a culture as we're quick to talk down on stars who choke or are not prepared but will insult the leagues for booking 'boring battlers'. Do the popular battlers deserve to be sanctioned for choking/lacking in preparation.

(Plus a brief Unpopular Opinion segment on the 2 on 2's we saw on Summer Impact)

58:28 - Give K-Shine a GOAT: It's time that we give K-Shine the look he deserves whether it's Lux, Mook, Daylyt or Hollow. As well as speaking on 'if performer's punches are overlooked?'

Now that the fire has settled and the smoke has cleared we summarise and recap the Wreslemania of Battle Rap - the Super Bowl Final of the sport we know and love that is Battle Rap.... NOME X - the Night of Main Events

We recap the following battles:

7:19 - Ultimate Madness Final: Fonz vs Jey The Nitewing, speaking on if it was a $25K battle, what happens next for Jey and Fonz, as well as Fonz calling out K-Shine for Rookies vs Vets - who would be the ideal battle for him.

23:14 - Th3 Saga vs Mike P - the unfortunate Saga choke, explaining whether it was a lack of preparation or pressure of the big stage and spotlight on him. As well as speaking on how well Mike P's performance was and who we want to see him battle next.

34:43 - Geechi Gotti vs Aye Verb - speaking on whether their styles made a good battle or not, who we had winning as it was a very debatable battle. Do we have a new found respect for Aye Verb now and also do we feel like Geechi has been over-saturated and needs to sit back for a bit.

41:58 - ARGUABLY THE BEST BATTLE OF 2020 Daylyt vs Tay Roc - why this battle is so amazing, what made us see the best Daylyt and Tay Roc, do we now want to see Daylyt vs Lux and Roc vs Mook. What does this battle do for both of their stakes, the amazing wordplay and the introduction of the newly found 'Dracula' character by Tay Roc

01:05:37 - The Main Event Loaded Lux vs Tsu Surf - why was this battle so underwhelming, is Surf cheating the culture, where would we rank this performance of Lux to his previous ones, does Surf deserved to be sanctioned and all the abuse he's getting right now and what battles would we like to see next from both of them?
