Stogie T, Maggz, A-Reece & Nasty C all outdid themselves on that #fourhorsemen joint. 4 elite pens going bar for bar. It also doesn’t sound like thy were trying to body each other. Everyone’s verse elite. Long may this spirit continue. This is real hip hop.

“I’m old McDonald my hard drive is a verse farm”- Nasty C
“A diamond in the rough you soft niggas more like Moissanite”- A-Reece
“Get streams but don’t follow waves, Saint Peter I walked on water,frozen lakes”- Stogie T
“I got the streets lit, see the heat on the map”- Maggz pic.twitter.com/wbzsPN1Tq2
Stogie T simply laid the carpet properly as a legend and left it straight, Maggz cam3 in with the grootman and legend reminder with proper story telling, A-Reece was very direct in terms of attacking on the go but very diss type of rapping then Nasty C just went too smart on it.
