Analysis

In a Grind Time Now matchup that had the battle rap community talking, Base stepped up against Jayk Gallagher, delivering a performance that cemented his status. From jump, Base brought a focused aggression and a delivery style that resonated, drawing comparisons to a young Dizaster, a high compliment in these circles.
