Right from jump, Trez came out swinging with aggressive 'chef' schemes and hard-hitting gun bars, aiming to put his stamp on the contest. He showcased intricate wordplay, positioning himself as the seasoned butcher ready to carve up the competition.

However, Real Deal wasn't just in the kitchen to observe. He quickly turned up the heat, unleashing a volley of personal attacks and complex multis that ripped through Trez's persona.
