Otherwise it would of course be negligent not to mention how Hollow’s LOM brand is unconsciously bigger than Clips apparel, highlighted by Hollow trademarking his own Sike I Lied moniker for his own capital, not only a clever battle tactic but also an education on how to do good business. For example when you see Hollow’s name or Mook’s name it’s pretty much a done deal that it will be a must-see event, yet when you see Clips name your only hope is that it’s against the best competition, in which case you’re still unsure if Clips will even come with a full 3 rds. Furthermore he’s pretty much the opposite of the Hollow effect, in which case he battles people so often for the competition and money he over saturates himself to the point we’re no longer that excited. ![]() "I mean yeah you fucked up my rhyme in the meanwhile, but I don't know if you know that I'm the best with the freestyle, you can say fuck this ***** but you wouldn't touch this ***** even if you knew 50 you wouldn't Young Buck this *****" An interesting category for Clips because as respected as his name is in battle rap, it’s unclear how marketable he’s made himself outside of it. ![]() Nonetheless Clips still deserves a 10 in this category simple because he’s one of the few talented enough to even attempt to do this, and furthermore because when he’s on his ceiling is as high as anyones. The only problem is when Clips gets the mumble mouth or simply doesn’t freestyle anything that’s relevant or makes sense, a reality that’s not only a detriment to his mystique but also a representation of his insufficient preparation, (an issue where he most likely relies on his natural abilities too much, and to a fault). ![]() His rebuttals can not only make entire venues shake, but they can also single-handedly win him matchups, with his rebuttal for Rex on behalf of his family arguably still standing as the best rebuttal in history. THAT'S WHAT THE FUCK IT'S SUPPOSED TO DO" Would be indisputably his best quality if his delivery was always clean, considering when his rebuttals have worked they’ve contributed to some of the best moments in battle rap. "See I know who, said you know what about you know who, but let's keep that between me and you, what's wrong Ars? these bars getting close to you, I can hear your heart beating. Of course that’s not always the case as his freestyles, rebuttals, and overall wordplay also have contributed to many of his wins, in which case despite not being as versatile as Hollow with his delivery, he’s still more adaptable than 99% of the rest of the competition. ![]() In fact more often than not with Clips it’s actually the bars that are the jabs and the jokes that are the haymakers, in which case his comedy more than anything else is what puts away his opponents. After barring you to oblivion Clips can roast his opponent to a crisp, eating away at his soul and spirit to the point where there’s legitimately nothing left. " Nevermind the punchline that comes later, the believability of that line directed at Conceited is just one of the many reasons Clips is as funny as anyone, and in many respects his comedy is his best quality.
