Analysis

The Ground Zero Grand Prix Round 2 pitted Luciano Crakk against Made Wade in a clash that left the battle rap community buzzing, though not always for the best reasons.

Wade stepped to the plate with a direct, aggressive style, often going for the jugular with personal content that many felt carried the first two rounds.
