Why don't you watch and support battle rap?

For the same reasons I don't go see some idiot recite slam poetry

 

[Mook]

For me pre-writtens isnt battling, yet this is what it has progressed to.

1st it was off the dome.

Then it begins to transcend where you had cats that WOULD slip pre-thought lines into off the dome battles.

Now its just all out witty phrased pre-writtens.

Dont get me wrong.

Some of those cats are nice.

BUT

Most of the flows and cadences used in todays battleraps just seem to one-dimensional and contrived.

No it wasn't dumbass. It was just two dusty NY losers spitting song verses.

You sound kinda biased..

I'm a huge battle rap fan and even it's getting watered down tbh

 

[L. Deezy]

it was hot for me for a minute. Its too talky and dramatic. White rappers ruining it...

What was the last battle you watched

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

Canibus and Cassidy I think ruined it a bit too.

 

[SoulController]

its corny to me

theres no new music, just some guys insulting each other. couple hot bars, never got into it

 

[dennis roadman]

it's not for everyone. i can see why a lot wouldn't fukk with it

a lot of you man in here saying it's wack and they can't rap listen to shyt music too tho so

 

[TruDatz]

rap is also supposed to make you bop. black people like to dance. we've always been like that, its always been like that. seems like these new age rap nerds want to make hip hop some kind of technical science. yall are only about analyzing lyrics for complicated rhyme schemes. Go outside. Grind on a bytch. cotdamn already LOL.

 

[R-Typ3]

Back when battling was truly underground..







Only problem is that most battle mc's have this ancient curse.. Put 'em in a studio and say take that 30 min rhyme/mixtape freestyle and gimme 12 songs with concepts+hooks for an album and nikkas die drowning in that booth

I should've known people not with the shyt are expecting how it used to be


Battles over beats

Actual freestyles

No aggression


Them Scribble Jam days are gone fellas

Just like breakin/b boying after '86 once they started puttin the shyt in commercials and the squares started clowning it was over.. Even 'Em had to laugh at himself after 8 Mile when everybody jumped on that wave

One of the best Iron Solomon lines to Jin:

He's like "I'M FREESTYLIN WHEN IM SPITTIN MY POEMS"

"HIS shyt'S WRITTEN, I KNOW IT!"

QUIT bytchIN AND HO'IN


nikkas talkin about repetitive content but listen to the same 5 rappers all fukkin day until somebody tells you who else to listen to

Off the head freestyles are trash....you don't believe me? Let GZA tell you:



Ya'll want dudes to battle over beats bouncing around like some idiots like its Scribble Jam 01....but yall so in tune with what's "nice"


Man :timmyimout:
