B-Rabbit vs. Lotto

Here are the guidelines: 1) Flow: Essentially, "flow" entails the ability of each rapper to connect past jokes with new ones. It involves transition from statement to statement and incorporates the musical style of each rapper. 2) Insults: Essentially, my opponent and I shall argue who had the better insults. Insults may be valued as personal, lyrical, etc. That is up for the debaters to refute. 3) Presence: Essentially, "presence" involves the ability of each rapper to take charge of the stage and interact with the audience. 4) Overall Quality: Essentially, "overall quality" is an incorporation of the previously mentioned terms and a general perception of how each rapper performed as a whole. My opponent did not pick an extra topic to discuss, so we shall argue the four. 1) Flow: B-Rabbit was able to connect a joke from a previous battle to the current one with Lotto. This can be noticed when B-Rabbit references, "Vanilla Ice. " (Note: B-Rabbit previously battled Lickety Split, and that is where he got the joke. ) Plus, Eminem used Lotto's "Leave it to Beaver" reference to his advantage and made fun of most of the members of the Leaders of the Free World. Lotto did not bring any past jokes or connect his jokes into a pattern that made sense. B-Rabbit was more organized with his pattern: he referenced Lotto's old joke, made fun of Lotto's external appearance, created a short, coherent diss of Lotto writing his raps before the battle, and ended with a crucial joke that took place after the beat finished. Lotto's voice was much more raspy and harder to pay attention to, compared to that of B-Rabbit. Also, Lotto used too many ideas that did not mesh well with one another. He did not have as good an understanding of the beat as did B-Rabbit. 2) Insults: B-Rabbit utilized jokes from older battles and played off of the insults from his opponent in order to win. He personalized many of his disses, including the famous, "Tang-top screaming Lotto I DON'T FIT YOU! " If you tally the personal disses of each, you will come to the conclusion that Eminem personalized his much more. Essentially, Lotto's only personal diss involved a reference to "Leave it to Beaver. " Other than that, he could have simply written something beforehand and used it for the battle. On the other hand, Eminem used Lotto's physical appearance and on-the-spot thinking to create a truly unique free-style rap. The individual disses were better in the sense that they applied more to Lotto. Additionally, Eminem's line at the end, "I'll get the seven digits from your mother tomorrow," showed that he can still insult without the use of a beat. This is the line that really won him over. 3) Presence: Honestly, Lotto really did not interact with the crowd. He glanced at the crowd a couple of times and put his arm around B-Rabbit for several seconds. Not too impressive. On the other hand, B-Rabbit physically pointed out the members of the Leaders of the Free World, tugged on Lotto's tang-top on a couple occasions, posed a couple of times for the audience (made muscular pose to insult Lotto's "steroids" and tugged on his own shirt when he stated that the tang-top doesn't fit). B-Rabbit was much more active with the audience, and he had more energy. 4) Overall Quality: Essentially, B-Rabbit was better overall. He had a better flow, style, and energy. His insults were personalized and required on-the-spot thinking. He interacted more with the crowd. Further, his final joke that took place after the beat signifies his ability to continue a battle with ease and confidence. I have proven that, in the four topics above, B-Rabbit should have won the rap battle. Thank you.
