Haha! There is some stiff competition: Knamelis, Soul, IM, Sketch, 24/7... all dope rappers with the personality of a brick.

**Emancee** · 12-30-2020, 04:37 AM

Some other guys:
Shotty, Tone, Oshea in the UK

I would probably replace Ill Will with Tay Roc (I don't like Tay as a rapper, but can't deny his crowd control and presence).

Another weird one that would be on my list is Rone, recently his battles vs. Charron and in the UK came up and he has crazy swag. Another argument could be made with Fresco, I'm not a huge fan of his style, but he has swag for days.

**clapburn** · 12-30-2020, 06:08 AM

Qp not sons
Ars
Pat
Hitman

On and on.

Chilla has more charisma than goodz

Chilla is literally known as one of the more boring guys in battle rap. He has a lot of skills, but at least by my definition charisma is only slightly above average. He does have reasonable crowd control however.

**ThaDiz** · 12-30-2020, 10:44 AM

Hitman is the obvious one,
Yung Ill
Tre Poundz
Qleen
Goodz
Verb
Pat stay
Clips
Con
Ars
Gotta agree with Fresco
I'm not sure if it's strictly dictionary definition of charisma but gotta put Daylyt in there too.

**Water Mage** · 12-30-2020, 07:46 PM

ThaDiz has the best list so far

I know nobody wants to admit it but Dizaster's charisma is off the charts too.. After seeing Diz vs Soul Khan I thought, damn, if Diz didn't leave Lebanon to compete in WRC's in 07 he would have been the next Muammar Qaddafi

Dumbfoundead has to be one of the most charismatic battle rappers of all time

Back in the day Jin was too

Most top tier battlers are naturally very charismatic - it's arguably one of the most important traits for gaining top tier status.

I'm actually more interested in seeing who people think are the least charismatic battlers that are definitively top tier.

DNA is one that comes to mind right away.

i think chilla's biggest weakness is his charisma. technically/ lyrically he is top of the top but his delivery seems forced when he gets loud.

also, to whoever talked about yung ill... in his prime he was all swagged out, but in his recent battles the passion and charisma wasnt there as much.

Generally all the lyrical miracles, Chilla, Gjonaj, JC on the big stage etc.
Then guys that are great, but lack that killer edge: Real Deal, Arcane (Canadian 'top tier'), Charron (Could there be a less charismatic title match than Corey-Trevor?!?) etc.

Yeah, lol. Really baffled why anyone would pick him as a top ten charismatic battler. Did guys not see him losing to RD?!? When RD has more swag and presence than you, something has gone horribly wrong

**Slug2003** · 12-31-2020, 05:04 AM

Dirtbag Dan has been accused of winning judged battles because people thought he was nice. I would also say pre-drug problems Lush One, he seems better now though.

Exactly. More captivating than goodz still

**clapburn** · 12-31-2020, 05:27 AM

I guess I am just a goodz hater.. but he was number 1 on the list. I just don't get it. Charron talking about autism, and his small area, and getting slapped by shine still edges him to me hahaha. Idgaf this thread is gay

I kinda get the feeling that we're all talking about completely different things and criteria, lol. With that said, I think that Charron having a small dick is the one thing we all agree on.

i agree with all of those except i dont see fresco as charismatic or not charismatic. he's kind of in the middle imo. also i disagree with a ward... my only complaint about ward is his voice... it's very high but i dont think he lacks charisma.

I could replace A Ward with Soul. What would you think of swapping Fresco for either Jae Millz or 40 Cal?

Shit fair play you got some good ones that didn't immediately come to mind that once I read I feel like I should have thought of, like on your original post I think Serius has to be on the list, Millz is a good shout too. I think you could definitely swap Fresco for Jones or Millz I just didn't think of them.

What are we saying about Math?

Definitely back in the day he had made charisma. These days like everything else, Math seems to be losing it.

Math is spotty with his charisma. What is charisma? I should probably look up the definition, but mine is: the ability to have people want to follow you.

Back to Math, clearly, he has charisma. But at his worst, like the way he initially handled getting punched by Diz, showed an extreme lack of it.

I thought that way he beat Hollow was below the belt. So, his performance there was uncharismatic IMO

sidenote, having said that I don't agree with his tactics vs Hollow.. I've never been able to look at Hollow the same since. I don't think others have either. Does he even make most top 5's at the moment? Not too long ago he was a lock for those.

It was another Sole (not the battle rapper)situation. Even though Sole probably won the beef with ElP in terms of rapping, ElP made him look like such a try hard that no-one wanted to be associated with that and people couldn't get that image out their minds when thinking about him.

Hollow just looked like such a herb when he started asking to be snuck out the back door and it capped off his recent descent into mediocrity. If Hollow comes back and delivers like he can and beats a decent name he'll be back on everyone's lists, but right now he is in that Rex bracket of being a top name based on solely past performance.
