Canibus was that nikka and was that nice and nobody got him in their top 10 smh

Off bars alone he won

A good rap battle is not only bars. The group Slaughterhouse will hit you with bars consecutively, nonstop every track. But the albums are damn near impossible to listen to straight through.

LL had bars, flow, punches, and jokes.
The ripper strikes back was a more well rounded track.
I think Canibus could have won, but he was blackballed after that.

He never said that

My bad… it was similar line hahah

Well, lemme tell you somethin’, you might got more cash than me/ But you ain’t got the skills to eat a ni**a’s ass like me!”

Obviously Canibus won. 2nd round KO is one of the greatest diss tracks of all time. Ripper strikes back was fire but it’s not in that conversation. LL got bodied by Kool Moe Dee too. But he is regarded the winner in both because his career kept going forward while his opponents fizzled out. That’s the only reason he’s considered the winner in both battles. For Canibus his career went where it was destined to go anyway

Clef was only with him for one album. What about the rest?

See my last post. Coming back from a bad debut is like winning the lottery. That level of derailment cannot be underestimated.

2nd round knockout is famous for getting his career ended. It's like the good ass chin punch that makes everyone say "oooooooh"! And we remember it because the bully proceeds to give the beat down of the school year

rap music, its called rap music...nikka spits ,but his beat selection makes me think he aint black, just awful ears for beats

 

[summwunn]

... and he got an Other-Than-Honorable discharge from the Army . . . blackballed from the music industry and the military . . . damn . ..

I used to listen to the bug dealer and tap my feet, then the bis put out a cd it ain't have no beats...

Canibus prove he was elite on guest spots. On his own, it highlighted, his songwriting wasn't elite. In 1998, if Canibus put out 10 song album with guest spots from rap's elite regardless of who produced it, it probably would've been a classic album. It would've elevated the "did you hear what he just did to (insert your favorite rapper)" aura he had going.
