JumpOff regular season review, yeah the regular season is done and dusted, on to the playoffs

For those following the WRC2007 yawll'll know the regular season is finished. My favourite battlers from each division, and am'a point out key battles and all and all that shit. And wassup with the playoffs, aight.

Houston - None, I don't know, maybe Phranchyze/Zeale32.
I didn't really watch much from this division, I don't know. That's all there is to it. Phranchyze's team went through, they're pretty dope, I wanna see what they can come up with during the playoffs.

Melbourne - Prime/Purpose.
First off I gotta say the Aussie division has been quite a surprise for me, and mosta the WRC viewers. Personally, I didn't like it when Justice won Scribble 2005, I didn't like his voice, his accent, his style (his lines are good though). But this division has proven to me that it's most def just a unique case.

My favourite is most def P&P with Anecdote/360 following closely. Decoy/Chase are pretty okay, and K21/Ilyak got mad potential. But P&P and Anec/360, these two pairs went blazing from start to finish, the only time they got any kind of fight was when they went against themselves.

I'm personally biased towards P&P. I guess I liked their styles better. Purpose has the dopest swagger I've seen on a white bwoy. Prime comes up with some of the most ridiculously funniest punchlines and most of them are off the top, on the spot, which makes them even funnier.

Meanwhile, Anecdote is one of those multi-syllabic emcees which is a style that can get annoying. But he's good at it, and he doesn't sound mad queer. Prolly cause he's quite an experienced cat in the OZ battle scene. Some people might say 360 is the weaker half but I think he brings a different dimension to the team with his fucked up sense of humour.

The best way to describe these two pairs for me is that they are Australia's very own Freestyle Masons (Stig/Respek BA and Whas'his'face/Possessed) (UK).

I'd say a good way to enjoy the Melbourne division is to watch all battles involving them two teams. But the best way is of course, to just watch both of their battles. FYI shit got so mad close between the two pairs they had to decide through one thing which was P&P had to go to punchlines round to defeat Anec/360 while Anec/350 defeated them in the first overtime, so Anec's team gets the pass to playoffs. Dissapointment for me being a fan of P&P but still, a dope pair went through, no real complaints.

They 1st battle.


They 2nd battle.


Atlanta - Uhh, dunno, Drect/Hemisphere maybe.
Like Houston, this didn't get the fair share of my attention. I preferred Mad Illz/Parable from last season's. They got mad annoying for some reason this time around. Drect/Hemisphere had dope swaggers and hilarious wtf-don't-give-a-fuck-am'a-just-say-it-however-i-wanna-fuck-it whatever typa lines. But predictably, the former pair went through.

London - G-Dash/King Jordz
Probably the most energetic and intense division. Wasn't expecting much from this division but the weaker teams from last season stepped it up in the absence of the infamous Freestyle Masons. Ark/Eurgh got through, not my favourite pair especially Ark with his screaming Possessed-wannabe style. But he got some nice lines though, him and Eurgh probably had the most flips, that's commendable.

Dash and Jordz though, daym. They really stepped it up. Dash and his cuntish persona is entertainment. Jordz is the King though, he's cult. He's got mad swag, and he's the most composed dude in the whole division, seems nuthing could deter him. And the funniest was whenever he made a pop culture reference. HADOUUUKEN!

Shoutout to Kulez and his partner. He stepped it up as well.

The most intense battle would have to be the first battle reuniting Ark and Kulez who were former partners last season. Shit got really personal and shit. The most important battle is the last one involving Ark's team and Dash/Jordz, as it determined who would go through. Shit went to the wire. I personally preferred Dash/Jordz to go through but Ark's team deserved it seeing as how consistent they came throughout the whole thing.

Ark and Kulez intense head-to-head reunion.


The grand finale battle, on some street fighter shit.


New York - Tie between Critical/Madness and Piff James/Hommy Hom
Definitely. I didn't like the division's winners one bit. I don't know. They can come up with some good lines but they whole style bar the wiseguy accent is pretty unbearable.

Critical/Madness came with their gay jokes galore and the funniest deliveries. Piff James/Hommy Hom only picked shit up by the second half of battles. Hom especially was blazing mostly near the end, kinda got his mojo back.

Well honestly although both pairs were my favs, they weren't too consistent. Still, I would've preferred either team to go through to the playoffs.

Detroit - OBVIOUSLY Quest Mcody/Marvwon
No doubt. I've said enough about them. A totally different style from most of the other battlaz. Detroit honestly was the most laidback division. Seems like everyone knew each otha and was just having fun making fun of each otha (even Elfamail and Moodswangz who came from Chicago seemed like part of the family). Shoutouts to Mr Cliff Note/Hostyle for the funny delivery and lines. And Moodswangz's team, they weren't too bad. You can see Swann in the background and sometimes hear his distinctive fucked up laugh too. Why the fuck didn't he enter though.

Best way to go through this division is to watch all Quest/Marv battles. Even towards the end when they were all tired and not even trying, they were hella funny as hell. Dildo flute, tidididututulgtyyududu.

Their funniest battle, the 1st one against Quest's cousin and some otha dude.


Their closest battle, their only battle that went to overtime, the 1st one against Elfamail/Moodswangz.


Los Angeles - Dumbfoundead/Sahtyre
Prolly the hardest division to pick out a favourite. Nearly everyone came with dopeness. Shoutouts to NoCanDo/Rheteric, Thesaurus/Illmac, Lush One/Flo. But honestly Dumb and Saht had the dopest chemistry and funniest style with the spontaneous freestyling/dissing.

Saht has this funny thing he does when after everytime he disses his opponent he would look at them up and down like he's sizing them up. Dumb I figured usually comes up with his lines while his partner is spitting, delivers it, blaow! funny shit, and then tops it off with the funniest freestyle filler in the world - "Gottdtayym". They both have the funniest postures and hand movements when battling, especially Saht with his slightly bending down stance. Whugkeakuga.

Can't front on this division. You gotta check out most of the battles. This is the division that had the most skills. That's why I would agree to anyone saying there should be a separate Bay and LA divisions. It's fucked up having to choose between Bay and Project Blowed cats and only send one pair from either group of emcees.

The other emcees not mentioned yet, good battlers too but more geared towards freestyle than punchlines. Lyraflip/Verbs, and Franco/Element. But there's one funny part in the after-battle interviews where Franco had a bitchfight with Element. Whaukuekga. Fucked up.

And NoCanDo is one of the best freestylers in this world ever, no doubt.

My favourite battle involving Dumbfoundead/Sahtyre


Toronto - Poorich/Kid Twist
No doubt. One of the most bogus divisions in terms of judging. But this pair finally made it and deserved it no doubt. Odd couple, Poorich with a wigga swag and Kid Twist with his nerdy swag. But it worked.

Kid Twist especially, comes up with the funniest lines. And despite his unapologetic nerd swag, he's pretty much gangsta. Just look at it this way, who has the most composure in the battles, he does. Nothing seems to sway him, he's cool as fuck. Best part was when he goes "he likes my girl so much he went with the chubby version" to Organik. After that Organik got really hyped up being mean and all that referencing Twist's girl but dude is mad chill, like whateva, I threw sand in your pussay already, no matter how much you scream back, you lost. Haha.

Props to Organik and his partner Knamelis though, they were not bad. Knamelis especially was involved in one of the best battles in the tourney. Having to battle Bishop/Stretch Diesel (whose dicks have been rode by the judges throughout) alone as Organik had too many fouls. He dissed the judges, dissed the host (they seem to have beef), and still won.

For this division, all the battles involving Poorich/Kid Twist are dope. Oh and I hate Aspire/Prolific. Hahakhga.

Best Lookback Shows
The lookback shows are a good feature. Everyone seems to be bitching about the host Nemiss. I don't see anything wrong with her. For a female, she's pretty good. Fucking nerds complaining about everything, as if they get Bollywood chicks climbing up they dicks every night, faggits.

The earlier lookback shows were pretty allright. Then it got to the high profile asshole guests namely Joe Budden, Serious Jones and Immortal Technique.

Then it got to the surprise guests. Like I didn't expect someone old school like Craig G to be on it (along with Mazzi, one of the best hosts). It was one of the best shows.

The one with Rhymefest and Termanology was dope as well. Just skip Rhymefest's weird rant about white boys being better than black boys. He's a well respected battle emcee (and also didn't do too bad on the commercial scene) and it's dope to see him commending the battles. At one point he dissed Smack DVD battles, saying that ain't the future of battling, this is. Which is true, from a neutral point of view, I'd rather watch random nerds and some streeter cats come up with dope punchlines than supposedly street cats read their verse about guns and coke aloud. I have my Ghostface and Clipse for that so fuck yawll. Yawll'll probably get served by Iron Solomon any day, anyway. He's got the best writtens hands down. Too much ranting there haha.

Rhymefest was funny in an odd awkward way though. Wahukgeaukga. Seriously.

Erm gotta say the lookback shows got better in the second half of the season for sho'. The one with the D.O.E. and that white dude was not bad too. They both had some good things to say. They both seemed like real fans of the battles.

And not forgetting the last show for the regular season I suppose. Which was done nicely. They drew the playoff match-ups live here too. I gotta embed this cause it's pretty important:


I hope they have a full season lookback, that'd be pretty dope. Props to JumpOff for getting quality guests regardless of whether they were cuntish or not.

Shoutouts to Okwerdz for being the most hated hater too. He's dope.

Best Host and Hostesses
The host that had the most control had to be the original, Scarrs of UK. The loudest gotta be Detroit. The most cuntish is that Toronto one that got dissed by Knamelis. LA host was dope also, he was the most responsive to funny lines, heard he's a blowed emcee so makes sense. Anotha JumpOff old boy Mazzi was Mazzi as usual. I don't know, maybe the Houston host was the best. I mean despite that division being the worst, he was pretty upbeat, and interacted with the battlers and everything else pretty well.

Hostesses, I have a soft spot for Miss Erica of Detroit. Despite her sagging tits. Well I'm not sure she's all that though, cause I can't see her face clearly from the camera.

Muh previews for the playoff
So now I understand the format, it's typical World Cup format. Here are the matchups which will be done in December 1st:

Illmac/Thesaurus vs Poorich/Kid Twist - it's gonna be interesting to watch. Although honestly, I agree with Critical in the lookback shows, Illmac's got something up his sleeve. Him and in some instances, Saurus as well, didn't seem to wanna reveal too much of their beastiness in the regular season. They might end up being too strong for the Canadian team, but I dunno, we'll see. Nemiss say this battle'll be footaged in December 5th.

Quest Mcody/Marvwon vs Madd Illz/Parable - the most interesting to look forward too. Two totally different battle styles. I wanna see Detroit go through but I dunno, their style might be too foreign for the general battle crowd.

Anecdote/360 vs Frankie Wapps/Jaze Juce - I do wanna see Anec serve both these yonkers since he does their style better, but I dunno, hard to predict as well.

Ark/Eurgh vs Pharnchyze/Zeale32 - least look forwarded to battle but I still wanna see how Phranchyze and his partner will cope with real competition.

Enjoy them battlez, folks.
