Clash Summary

SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ vs F-DON & DAN DANNAH took place at PenGame Rap Battle 2024, during the 2-on-2 tournament at Wembley Boxpark. The host introduces the clash as a serious heavyweight battle, with judges Big Zuu, Loonz, and Axel the Comedian deciding the result.

F-DON & DAN DANNAH win the coin toss and choose for SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ to go first. From the opening round, SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ come with strong chemistry, direct insults and aggressive 2v2 pressure. Their first round attacks F-DON for forgetting bars, forcing delivery and lacking rhythm, while also mocking DAN DANNAH as someone who shouts more than he raps.

F-DON & DAN DANNAH respond with a more traditional battle-rap structure. Their first round targets SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ as workers, office men and weed smokers rather than real threats. DAN DANNAH brings a strong Krusty the Clown / Springfield section that gets a reload and helps them build momentum.

The second round is where the battle turns. SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ continue with personals, attacking anger, image, background, partners and credibility. However, F-DON & DAN DANNAH’s second round lands harder. They use a strong “switching partners / swingers” angle, attacking SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ’s previous team-ups with GRAMS and WHOISORION. F-DON also calls himself the Godfather of PenGame, and DAN DANNAH brings a strong patois/Jamaican-style flow switch that the judges heavily praise.

The final round is close, but F-DON & DAN DANNAH take it through creativity. SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ bring more aggression and directness, but F-DON & DAN DANNAH close with a Thor hammer prop and a long Marvel/Pokémon/name-flip sequence. Axel and Big Zuu both specifically praise the creativity of the Thor section.

The official decision goes to F-DON & DAN DANNAH. Loonz gives it to SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ, but Axel and Big Zuu give it to F-DON & DAN DANNAH, making the final result 2-1.

Performance Analysis

SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ

SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ start very strongly. Their first round is clean, confident and feels like a proper 2v2. They switch well, support each other’s lines and attack both opponents directly. The “Island Boys but the Black ones” line gets a major reaction and shows their ability to mix humour with insult. Their strongest argument is that F-DON and DAN DANNAH are not as dangerous as their image suggests. They accuse F-DON of forgetting bars, lacking rhythm and forcing delivery, while DAN DANNAH is framed as someone who shouts in tune rather than actually barring. This gives their first round a clear direction. Their second round keeps up the aggression. They attack DAN DANNAH’s anger, family, background and appearance, while also challenging F-DON’s image. iiiBEREALZ brings darker, more violent writing, while SMIL3Z keeps the punches more direct and crowd-friendly. Their third round is intense but less clean. The aggression is there, but the material becomes more general and less structured. They still land punches about F-DON choking, DAN singing, and both opponents lacking real danger, but the round does not have the same standout concept as F-DON & DAN DANNAH’s Thor closer. SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ’s strength is chemistry and pressure. Their weakness is that the final round does not match the creativity of their opponents’ closer.

Lyrical Themes: F-DON forgetting bars, DAN DANNAH shouting, old-man image, OnlyFans references, Island Boys, bad fashion, anger, background, violence, lyrical superiority, choking and singing angles.

F-DON & DAN DANNAH

F-DON & DAN DANNAH win because they improve as the battle goes on. Their first round is solid, but their second and third rounds are where they take control. Their second round is the strongest turning point. F-DON attacks SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ for switching partners, saying one teamed with GRAMS and one teamed with WHOISORION, then turning that into a “swingers” angle. It is a proper 2v2 angle because it attacks the team dynamic, not just the individuals. F-DON also uses his PenGame status well, calling himself the Godfather of PenGame and saying other battlers have been sired by him. That gives him authority in the room. DAN DANNAH then brings a patois/Jamaican-style flow switch that the judges clearly remember. Axel specifically says he could hear the Caribbean rhythm in it. Their final round wins them the battle. The Thor hammer prop gives the round a clear concept. They build around Thor, hammer, sore/Thor, thorn/thought, dinosaur and Bulbasaur. It is funny, theatrical and easy for the judges to remember. Big Zuu says the creativity of the Thor section is what edged the third round for him. F-DON & DAN DANNAH’s strength is late-round creativity. Their weakness is that they start slower than SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ, but they recover and finish stronger.

Lyrical Themes: partner-switching, swingers, Godfather of PenGame, patois flow, Krusty the Clown, Springfield, Miles Morales, Street Fighter, Dragon Ball Z, Thor, Pokémon, I-be-lie name flip, battle-history angles.

Indexed Bars & Breakdown

SMIL3Z & iiiBEREALZ

"I swear I put you and your bitch in a split before and now you come back for more."

This opens the battle with a previous-history angle. SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ are saying F-DON and DAN DANNAH have already been damaged before, yet still came back to face them again. It gives their opener a sense of unfinished business.

"You was living in F-DON’s shadow."

This is aimed at DAN DANNAH. The idea is that DAN is not his own threat, but someone standing behind F-DON’s status. In a 2v2 battle, attacking the weaker link is a smart strategy.

"F-DON always forgets his bars and you can’t control your vocal cords."

This is a direct attack on both opponents. F-DON is accused of choking or forgetting material, while DAN is accused of poor vocal control. It sets up the idea that neither opponent is technically reliable.

"He can’t rap cause he ain’t got no rhythm, and when you rap everything’s just forced."

This is a technical critique, not just an insult. They attack rhythm, delivery and natural flow. It is effective because it fits what judges are listening for in battle rap.

"We got ugly fucker and his little brother."

This is a simple duo insult. It makes F-DON and DAN DANNAH look like an awkward pair rather than a dangerous team. It works because it attacks the visual setup of the 2v2.

"Season 4 had him scared all summer."

This is a battle-history angle. It suggests F-DON or DAN avoided smoke during the season. It makes them look hesitant rather than confident.

"I was asking F, when we gonna battle? And he was doing a runner."

This continues the avoidance angle. The claim is that F-DON did not want the matchup and was running from it. It makes F-DON look less fearless than his image suggests.

"DAN ain’t got bars, he shouts in tune."

This is one of their clearest critiques of DAN DANNAH. It says his delivery has volume and rhythm, but lacks actual bars. It is a sharp way to separate performance from writing.

"Looking at the Island Boys, but the Black ones."

This is one of the standout jokes in the battle. The Island Boys are viral internet figures known for their distinctive look and meme status. SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ use the comparison to make F-DON and DAN DANNAH look like a strange viral duo rather than serious battlers.

"After this there’s no sign of the boys."

This continues the Island Boys scheme. “Sign of the boys” flips the phrase into a battle-death image, suggesting the opponents will disappear after the clash.

"Why did you choose to do battle rap when you’re there getting so angry?"

This is aimed at DAN DANNAH’s emotional delivery. Instead of treating anger as intimidating, they make it look uncontrolled and childish. It is a strong performance critique.

"I think your mum should have took a Plan B."

This references Plan B, emergency contraception. It is an extreme birth/regret insult, used to say the opponent should not have been born. It is harsh battle material.

"Screwing up your face while you’re on the backseat of a motorbike."

This is a visual attack. It paints the opponent as angry or tense in an undignified situation. The motorbike image also gives the bar a comic visual.

"Come from St Vincent and Jamaica."

This is a heritage line. iiiBEREALZ uses it to claim Caribbean background and identity, likely in response to style or authenticity challenges. It also sets up later clashes around patois and Caribbean rhythm.

"You spend on drip while your face looks broke."

This is a fashion-vs-face insult. “Drip” means clothing/style, but they say the opponent’s face ruins the image. It is a clean, easy-to-catch punch.

"He had to ask his bro, and his bro had to ask his bro."

This is a status and dependency angle. It suggests the opponent cannot do anything independently and has to keep asking others for help. The repetition makes it more memorable.

"DAN, your style is old, nobody wanna hear shouting."

This repeats the main DAN DANNAH critique. They say his style is outdated and relies too much on shouting. It is direct and relevant to his performance style.

"F always chokes and he still thinks that he’s hot."

This is a direct attack on F-DON’s reliability. “Chokes” means forgetting or failing during a performance. The bar says F-DON has a known weakness but still acts like he is elite.

F-DON & DAN DANNAH

"You’re battling F, you’re mentioning DAN. You’re battling DAN, you’re mentioning F."

This is a smart 2v2 opener. F-DON and DAN DANNAH accuse SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ of not knowing who to aim at. It frames them as unfocused and unable to attack properly.

"These man are only on smoking weed, they ain’t on smoke."

This is a clean wordplay bar. “Smoking weed” is literal cannabis use, while “on smoke” means ready for conflict. They say SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ smoke weed but are not really dangerous.

"In school this guy was a boffin and this one here was never a problem."

This attacks both opponents’ backgrounds. A “boffin” means a nerd or academic type, and “never a problem” means not a threat. It makes both opponents look soft.

"SMIL3Z, you’re just a worker. iiiBEREALZ, you work in the office."

This is a status attack. They frame both opponents as normal working men rather than dangerous battlers. It undercuts the street/aggressive image.

"Me and F-DON bring heat just like a .38 Special."

A .38 Special is a firearm reference. They use it to say their team brings danger and impact. It is a classic gun-bar comparison.

"This guy’s from Springfield. Look at this clown, looks crusty."

This references Springfield, the town from The Simpsons, and leads into the Krusty the Clown angle. It is one of their strongest visual jokes because it gives the crowd a character image.

"Give me a burger."

This connects to Krusty Burger from The Simpsons. The joke works because once the Springfield/Krusty reference lands, the burger line extends the scheme. The crowd reacts strongly.

"You was teamed with GRAMS… you was teamed with ORION…"

F-DON opens round two by attacking previous team-ups. This is smart 2v2 writing because it questions loyalty and chemistry. It says SMIL3Z and iiiBEREALZ are not a solid pair.

"These man are switching partners, these man are swingers."

This is the main second-round angle. “Switching partners” means changing 2v2 partners, but “swingers” also means couples who swap partners sexually. It is a simple but effective double meaning.

"Mentioning man in sexual ways, I can’t lie, that shit is tired."

F-DON criticises the opponents for relying on sexuality-based jokes. This is a clever move because he attacks their content while also taking the moral high ground for a moment.

"I’m the Godfather of PenGame, every one of these man got sired."

This is a strong status bar. F-DON claims he is a founding or father-like figure in PenGame. “Sired” means fathered, so he is saying many battlers come from his influence.

"SMIL3Z start rapping in patois cause it makes you sound like a thug."

This attacks SMIL3Z’s use of Jamaican patois. F-DON says it is an image choice rather than authentic toughness. It is a cultural-performance critique.

"Keep grinning till I start swinging like Spider-Man, call me Miles."

This references Miles Morales, the Spider-Man character. The line connects swinging punches with Spider-Man swinging through the city. It is a clean comic-book reference.

"Me and F-DON street fight like Ryu and Ken."

This references Ryu and Ken from Street Fighter. F-DON and DAN DANNAH compare themselves to a classic fighting-game duo, which fits the 2v2 format perfectly.

"Sonic boom like Guile."

This continues the Street Fighter reference. Guile is known for the “Sonic Boom” move. It adds another fighting-game layer to the scheme.

"We move like Goku, Vegeta. These man are Tien and Yamcha."

This references Dragon Ball Z. Goku and Vegeta are elite-level fighters, while Tien and Yamcha are often seen as lower-tier compared with them. It is a strong hierarchy bar.

"You are Tien, cause he has three eyes, and that’s how you spell your name."

This is a clever iiiBEREALZ name flip. Tien from Dragon Ball Z has three eyes, and “iii” visually looks like three I’s. It is one of the smartest written punches in the battle.

"When I grip this hammer, it makes me feel like Thor."

This begins the third-round Thor prop section. Thor is the Marvel god of thunder known for his hammer. Bringing out the prop makes the round theatrical and memorable.

"If I hit this guy with a hammer, his head would be feeling sore."

This is a Thor/sore wordplay line. The sound connection makes it easy to catch, and the hammer prop helps the punch land visually.

"He’s a prick, he’s a thorn."

This extends the Thor/sore/thorn sound pattern. It is not the deepest line alone, but as part of the scheme it keeps the rhythm moving.

"He said I look like a donkey, but he looks like a dinosaur."

This is a simple image comparison. It answers an insult and flips it back with a bigger, sillier visual. The crowd can catch it quickly.

"Who’s your favourite Pokémon? Let me guess, Bulbasaur."

This references Bulbasaur, one of the original Pokémon. It continues the “saur” sound pattern from dinosaur and Thor/sore. The judges specifically respond well to this type of creativity.

"I be rules? Your name should be I be lie."

This is a direct iiiBEREALZ name flip. F-DON says iiiBEREALZ lies about his battle record and status. It is clean and personal.

"You said you ain’t lost one battle, but everyone here knows that is a lie."

This attacks iiiBEREALZ’s credibility. It uses crowd knowledge and battle history rather than a random insult. That makes it more effective.

"You almost lost to DEENO, and he came here with four days’ notice."

This is one of the strongest battle-history punches. It says iiiBEREALZ struggled with someone who had minimal prep time, which undercuts his claim of being unbeaten or dominant.
