Mannnn I used to listen to Juice vs Supernat recorded on a cassette.



Freestyle battling anyone in the city before there was an 8 mile movie.

Before battles were acapella and writtens were considered :scusthov: :mjcry:

Man I used to spit in college and nikkas would legit get booed for even sounding like it was written.

Of course once I stopped being a snob I realized how much better written battles were... My god were freestyle battles wack 90% of the time.

Bro it was a few months ago Nuborn was like the biggest joke to everybody. Everybody calling him a midget and shyt. Why isn't he battling top tiers?

He had a couple shots but blew it. Dont think the toptiers will battle him but his pengame is undeniable. I used to clown the shyt out of him for no appearant reason but he can rap. Check his battle vs brixx

Still that feeling of getting accused of a written when you really freed that shyt :blessed:

Californ-i-a by way of BK
Been watching televised battle rap since KRS hosted "Blaze Battles" on HBO in 01'....hell even the battle rap series on Showtime back when Quest Mccody was still a young pup with braids, they had Cee-Lo referee the ATL segment too

^^^ Anybody remember the name of the show??

YUP!

Im from the freestyle era... it took me a LONG time to appreciate written battles.

Now when someone starts stumbling freestyling in a verse I'm like :scust:
