Lyrics
Verse 1 - 


Hobbes:


Wanna face you in a battle just to say that you're the greatest
making this whole room of emcees look basic 
been bumping your jams on a regular basis
heavy rotation on all of my playlists


Front:


I think a lot of your intellect (I heard that everyone does).
Word is that you're universally dearly beloved.
Just thinking of it heartens me. That's what you do.
I came to battle forth and back with you, too.


Prowess:


Dappersaurus dressed to kill, ate your crew in the booth,
An Hobbes hands you flowers; Josh grew the groove, no joshing you.
Battle bars gift-wrapped: silk ribbons and gratitude,
Kill you with kindness, then Venmo the corpse half the loot.


Selene:


I'm after who? A literal goddess? 
Well hot dog, every time you talk I empty my pockets
Your father and I are proud of you, consider it promised
Got shivers when I saw your name, then roared like Colossus


Chorus - 


Felix:


Ayo, you're doing such a good job, actually the best job ever !
Bravo, this job has never been done better.
Floral arrangements to my favorite go-getters !
Ayo, you're doing such a good job, it's like you barely used up any effort.
Managed the challenge, you don't freeze up under pressure.
Pound to tha' dynos for the icy gold measures !


Verse 2 - 


Prowess:


Nice kids finish last? Not when nice gets weaponized,
Squad overqualified, made the judges switch sides.
I came for a body, and you brought extra lives,
You won, gave each verse five, then shared the prize.


Selene:


What do my eyes spy? But five fly musicians
No surprise, in a battle you'd earn my submission
Unconditional surrender, my eyes shine like Steven's
You're a giant in my life and a gem by definition


Front:


I like your ambitions. I like your successes.
I admit it, I like how you dress, it's the freshest.
You always light up a room when you're seizing the night.
You'll never win the battle, you're too easy to hype.


Hobbes:


On the real i think you're too kind
Too fly when you grace the mic with your head light 
Can never be a fair fight you're too nice
To sing your praises I'd need at least two mics


Chorus 2 - 


Felix:


Ayo, you're doing such a good job, actually the best job ever !
Bravo, this job has never been done better.
Floral arrangements to my favorite go-getters !
Ayo, you're doing such a good job, it's like you barely used up any effort.
Managed the challenge, you don't freeze up under pressure.
Pound to tha' dynos for the icy gold measures !


Chorus Outtro - 


Felix:


Ayo, you're doing such a good job, actually the best job ever !
Bravo, this job has never been done better.
Floral arrangements to my favorite go-getters !
Ayo, you're doing such a good job, it's like you barely used up any effort.
Managed the challenge, you don't freeze up under pressure.
Pound to tha' dynos for the icy gold measures !


Ooo (let's all elope on the moon y'all did a great job very great very great job)

JUDGES' BREAKDOWN

    CHALLENGE 10

    Holy shit, you got Mc Frontalot on a VPC track! That's cool as fuck. This roster is STACKED with great rappers. This beat reminds me of y'alls Animal Crossing track vibes-wise. Headnodic and posi af. This song is a delight. The mix feels a little bit unbalanced, though. The bass feels a bit hot in a way that impacts the rest of the mix. It may be pushing up against the limiter on the global mix, but it gives a little bit of a claustrophobic feel to a track that really should feel light and breezy like these vibes. Overall this is a VPC classic, for sure. Can't wait to hear that album cut of this one! Thanks for looping the Grandfather of Nerdocre into the VPC lore <3

    Beat is groovy, that bass is sublime. Lyricists barred out on this. A lot of my faves on this one, no dissapointment found. Love the evolution of this track. Hook vox could be a bit louder in the mix.

    Such a great groove. Silky smooth vocals from the hook to the verses. made the track sound effortless from all the vocalist. great job on the production. Choosing to let the beat breathe was a brilliant choice in this round because in posse cuts its known for the entire track to be used and this is the first time this round I have seen this executed correctly. phenomenal job everyone!

    CHALLENGE 10

    This was soooooo goood! Perfect score no notes. Let me share what I liked. 1) Really nice balance of featured artists. Everyone has a different rap style, affect, timbre of voice. Makes for a really well-rounded track. Some of the other tracks with many features had a lot of artists with similar voices / writing styles, which makes the track get a bit samey after a while. 2) The beat was so smooth and chill, like a bunch of friends hanging out and dapping each other up. Real smoke session. Production was very clean and slick. The low end is always poppin' with 2-Ton. 3) That chorus is long but still so hooky and fun and triumphant. 4) Very smart to have 4 rappers trading 4s each time. If you have 6 features each with 16s it can start to feel like a slog, so breaking it up was absolutely the right choice. You guys have been really fun to discover all throughout the competition. Big ups to you!

    PROWESS THE FEATURE! Love this one for all of us. We should have called this one "Gas Off" because it's all fire and heating each other up in the best ways. More compliment battle tracks like this! * All teams receive a '10' in their challenge category from me this round. This has to be one of the most randomized challenges and can seem insurmountable with the wrong pairing. As such, I am thoroughly impressed with everyone's ability to rise to the task.
