NoCanDo secured the win with a dominant performance in the later rounds, delivering potent rebuttals and crowd-pleasing punchlines, most notably the mic-drop moment. While Franco had a strong start, his momentum dwindled as NoCanDo's energy and freestyle prowess escalated. The battle's controversial uneven round count, however, is a significant talking point among fans.
The Scribble Jam 2007 stage was set for a classic showdown as NoCanDo squared off against Franco, delivering a battle packed with raw freestyle energy and undeniable controversy. Franco came out swinging in the first, dropping a round that many still hail as a masterclass in off-the-dome lyricism, showing why he commanded respect from the jump. But as the rounds progressed, NoCanDo started to catch a different gear.
He turned up the heat with sharp rebuttals, flipping Franco's aggression into his own arsenal. Lines like 'i eat chicken, my hair's nappy' weren't just punchlines; they were turning points, showing NoCanDo's ability to connect with the crowd and pivot the momentum decisively. The battle reached a fever pitch in the final round, culminating in a moment that will forever be etched in battle rap lore: Franco's mic hitting the deck, whether by accident or by NoCanDo's controversial footwork.
NoCanDo, ever the opportunist, seized the moment with a blistering 'dropped your godam mic, coz you ain't really grippin it,' a spontaneous jab that sent the crowd into a frenzy and pretty much sealed the deal. Despite the back-and-forth about uneven rounds and the mic incident, the masses largely sided with NoCanDo, who displayed an uncanny ability to build momentum and deliver crushing blows when it mattered most. Franco definitely put on a show and had his moments, proving his lyrical chops, but NoCanDo ultimately rode the wave of the crowd and sharp-witted rebuttals to clinch the victory.
