About two and a half years ago, Danny Myers and Rum Nitty faced off in a small-room battle that got huge attention and launched both their careers. This past weekend, the two put on again in small-room classics on opposite sides of the country.
Though the biggest buzz went to Rum Nitty vs. Ave at URL's "Born Legacy 2," the feedback from LABattleGroundz' "L.A. Beef 2" has been nothing but positive after Danny Myers took on B Dot, one of the top newcomers in the scene, in a battle some people are calling one of the year's best.
Competition for that title is tight already, with Iron Solomon vs. Dizaster, Psycoses vs. Gjonaj and the aforementioned Rum Nitty vs. Ave all getting tossed around by different fan bases as standouts from 2016 so far.
Here's just some of the buzz about the match-up from people who saw it live.

In this video, West Coast blogger KDoz says, "I've never seen a battle like this before. I've never seen two battlers with the variety of content, subject matter, lyricism, performance, you name it, this battle had absolutely everything ... This battle is gonna set the precedent for the rest of the year. It's already the battle of the year."

B Dot and Danny was a fire battle. Both had crazy 1st rounds, but I edge it to Danny. B Dot took round 2 and 3. Dope battle overall 👏👏👏
