About Chess

Chess, also known as CakeLyfe, is an American combat rapper. His smackdown with rapper Th3 Saga catapulted him to popularity. He has also battled with the likes of T-Top, Prep, and Gwitty.

Chess is an entertaining, competitive tabletop game played between two players. It is sometimes referred to as Western or international flags to distinguish it from related games such as xiangqi. The current form of the game appeared in Southern Europe in the second half of the 15th century after developing from similar, much older games originating in India and Persia. Today, chess is one of the most popular games in the world, played by millions of people around the world at home, in clubs, online, by correspondence and in tournaments. Chess is an abstract strategy game and does not involve any hidden information. It is played on a square chessboard with 64 squares arranged in an eight x eight grid. At the start, each player controls sixteen pieces: one king, one queen, two towers, two knights, two bishops and eight pawns. The object of the game is to check the opponent's king, according to which the king is immediately attacked and there is no way to escape it.
