Career
Hollow da Don is one of the most prominent battle rappers of the 21st century, having been on 106 & Park"s Freestyle Friday for seven weeks undefeated, earning a place in the program"s Hall of Fame by 2006. In 2007, he put up a strong performance in the Houston division of Jumpoff"s World Rap Championships, earning an Most Valuable Player nomination with an 8-2 record. Hollow"s career took off with the birth of the new-general battle rap leagues where MCs could blend their freestyle raps with written rhymes.
Making his debut at New York City"s Fight Klub in 2008, Hollow demolished the competition, winning ten straight battles before finally falling to New Jersey"s Arsonal in a controversial matchup.
At the same time, Hollow was tearing through the newly formed East Coast division of Grind Time and making trips out to the Fresh Coast and Saint Louis to clash with their veterans. Hollow debuted on SMACK/URL against Chicago"s Big T in 2010.
Since 2013, he has been consistently rated one of the best battle rappers by battle rap fan communities. He competed against Loaded Lux in a highly anticipated and controversial UW Battle League event on January 26, 2014.
In a battle many claimed would be a classic of the ages, the battle did not reach its expectations.
Charlie Clips confirmed that he did not have a round 2 prepared for Hollow Da Don and this in the eyes of most lost him the battle. Fans were led to believe was going to be a traditional three round battle, only to discover at the last minute that it would be a one round battle instead. Hollow is going on to battle more in 2016, saying that the next round he spits in 2016 will leave his opponent "wondering if they even deserve to have a soul in their body."
lieutenant was announced during KOTD"s Blackout 6 event that a rematch between Hollow Da Don and Pat Stay will take place in May on KOTD"s Massacre event.
