King of the Dot’s Lush One recently spoke with HipHopDX about the greatest battles of 2013. According to Lush One, Bigg K and Illmaculate had the best head-to-head match-up of the year.
“This set the bar higher for all battles,” Lush One said of the “Battle of the Bay 6” face-off. “The combination of the production value of the editing, the tense atmosphere, crowd dynamics, & the lack of any discernible mistakes make it amazing. Not to mention the level of lyricism.”
Yesterday (December 26), Okwerdz noted that he also felt Illmaculate and Bigg K had the best battle of the year.

“[This was] an amazing juxtaposition of styles,” Lush One said. “As authentic and unique as it gets, once again anchored by Kyle [‘Avocado’] Gray’s amazing editing skills. Watts versus Harlem. It’s a one round battle, but longer then many three rounders.”
