Between Sinzu and Godwon...who won?

I took out time to listen to two childhood friends who are currently heating up the Nigerian rap music scene with atomic punch lines that could make one forget about the controversial best rap artiste list published recently by one of the leading music sites, these punch lines am talking about are not just okay!.
Sinzu, formerly known as Sauce kid, a famous rap artiste who to me is already established in the rap game in Nigeria and GodWon on the other side, a Nigerian-born rap artiste from the United States of America who's trying to break into the Nigerian music industry.
 
                                *Sinzu                                                  *GodWon
Obviously from the lyrics you would already know they are very good friends way back, but seems like the music business is bringing out the ugly sides of their friendship! What more brings fame in the rap business?
The diss tracks, to me, sounds exactly like what a rap track should be, not the watery lines from em...em...em you know them now! I would prefer they ride on themselves and leave the 'wives' and kids outta this 'business strategy'.
If you think the diss tracks reminds me of 2pac's 'hit 'em up' you correct! The beats, the bars, the devilish laugh and the sounds of gunshots, they correct!
I hope they both wear a bullet-proof vest around (even in the gym) because I won't bother to shed tears (Rest in peace to Notorious B.I.G and maybe to 2pac!).
The diss tracks, I see them as business strategy! Yes! Business Strategy...have you had a second thought about the tittle of those tracks; 'Exit Strategy' by Sinzu and 'I have been waiting for you' by GodWon. Am leaving that to your 'thinking-outside- the-box'.
Those wey diss  years ago are buying themselves liquor and perhaps featuring on same hit tracks nowadays!
And before I snap out of this diss dizziness, I think Eedris Abdulkareem's 'I go wooz you' is like a nursery rhymes compared to those blazing punch-lines used by Sinzu and GodWon (No diss Boss, all na entertainment, before you whooz me join!).
And if eventually, this Sinzu-GodWon diss turn out to be a business strategy, y'all gat to 'tell me who won'...*in 2pac's voice* 'Well, I see 'em they won'.

I wrote this out of my affection for rap music, shout-out to 2pac, Nas, Ja'rule, Dagrin, Snoop-Lion, Ricky Ross, Eedris Abdulkareem, Black Face, Jhybo, IcePrince, Jesse Jaga, Reminisce and others keeping it original!
