I will say Hallow is charismatic, and he did hit Lux with some good lines, and the theatrics by bringing Black out was funny, but still...dude is not ready for Lux.

All Hallow did was Jedi Mind Trick the audience, by attempting to make Lux unlikable. That stuff about how Lux go over everyone's heads was almost genius of the evil type, because the most vocal in the crowd obviously ate that up. Of course if you're not such a bright person, you're going to be attracted to dumb shit.

All that shit Hallow brought up about Lux wanting to get his 40k was idiotic too. Obviously these cats organizing these battles are caking and Lux is being a business man sees the value of his making an appearance so of course the man wants get his fair share of the paper. You'd think the audience would agree with that especially since Hallow boasts about getting paper in the streets and if he get knocked by the cops he does his jail time like a man. Rap Battles is a hustle so get that paper son!

And within the same breath Hallow talks some shit about Lux being a deadbeat dad... That was not only ugly, but didn't even make sense in the order he put it, why? because he just finished telling the crowd that Lux was greedy and caked off the battle, yet the dummies in the crowd fell for it.

I remember a time when you could respect the streets, but folks got dumber and dumber as each year has gone past. Jedi Mind Trick fo' sho'!
