#TBT Battles @JumpOffTV Street Battles @JumpOffTVUK @twitteurgh @MrArk @MCNocando @BattleRapDoc @DontFlop


So I really have to big up JumpOFF and the UK scene as they were what really got me into modern battling. I'm a freestyle fan so the Smack DVD's were ok but not my mind of what battling was. THen I caught on to JumpOFF.  
UK still produces some of the best freestylers and probable would not have the strongest pool of battlers to handle a freestyle type battle format.


Here are some of my favorites

RIP D Mobb

#TBT JAE MILLZ vs GOODZ "2002' CLASSIC BATTLE {FULL 24MIN.) 5ROUNDS @JAE_MILLZ @TheRealGoodz @YoungMoneySite

Now I have never been the biggest Goodz fan in the new era, however when it comes to actually rapping on a beat, there's not many better than Goodz the Animal. 
Check out this oldschool classic battle where Goodz is in the studio battling legend Jae Millz
This is some old school rapping over a beat back and forth battle. 
THis was some nice shit

The Exception to the Rule 






The Exception is an album by Cortez dropped in 2013, featuring 100% original production. 
Cortez is set out to show the industry how diverse his style is. After a full year of momentum in 2012, dropping several Mixtapes, a handful of videos, being featured on multiple major Hip Hop publication websites, and much controversy after his most recent battles in the battle scene, Cortez continues to show consistency in releasing quality material.

Battle Rapper Feature Friday Shotty Horror @ShottyHorroh @dontflop @KingOfTheDot @UDuBBNetwork



Shotty Horroh is a rapper from Manchester, he has been in the rap battle game since 2011. In June 2013 he announced he would not be battling in DF again. Shotty Horroh is considered by many to be the best battler in the UK. His unique blend of URL style threats, chillling word play and sharp freestyling ability make him one of the most internationally respected battlers of Don't Flop.

Shotty Horroh began his battling career at his own event where he faced off against Grind Time legend and fan favouriteDizaster. Shotty then went on to face Don't Flop legend Osheaon Lab Battles, in a promo match up showing that even after only two battles he could still clash with the top spitters on both sides of the Atlantic.

Syd Vicious vs J-pro Barfest @SydLunacy @JProepsilon


Check out this battle from two of my favorite underrated battle MC's 
SYD VICIOUS VS JPRO

So I have followed both these guys for years. They are two of the most well rounded battlers. Both are punchers but it's not all just gun bar punches. I wait to see which wrestling bars J Pro gonna come with

Syd got nice delivery good multis nice rhyme patterns and got some punchlines. 

round 1 
I liked the delivery of the Google maps line
His Closer was really good

J pro
The Zack morris line came out of nowhere
He came with punch punch punch
Papa Shango lol
I liked Pro energy

I think I edge to SYd Vicious

Round 2
Syd started meh.. ok punches good delivery but nothing jumped out at me.


Jpro started nice I liked the Syd sids baby victim
I liked the muppet babies line
He was going in with some good like bar punches.
this round goes to J Pro

Round 3
His Like a Bitch scheme was crazy
Syd was strong here in this round
some good catholic bars

I like J Pro  rebuttal 
I think pro went in on the punches 
He closed stronger than Syd
This battle I've gone back and forth 
3rd round is tied. If this was old GT there would be a OT
but I'll to J Pro


THIS WAS CRAZY !!!!!!!!!

BeastMode - REEALITY vs @LevCorso Rap Battle (Title Match) @BeastModeBattle @JonnyJibbz @LymeLyteVideo @TheLexxorcist


Check out the latest title match from Toronto born league BeastMode.  
The title match faces the challenger, from New Jersey, Lev Corso versus the champion, from Toronto Reeality.
Ive known reeality for along time and he continues to get better. Ive seen a few of Lev Corsos battles but I wasn't really a follower of his battles. 

Round 1 
Levs whole Do you feel like the champ Ree schemes were killer.
Nice delivery 
Liked the well rounded line
Good breakdown with girls shit

I think Ree needed to have cleaner delivery 
I think he had some ok lines But  some where eh 
H didn't get hot until  2nd half 
he did lost substance line both make fun of weight

Easy win for Lev

Round 2
Lev had some good delivery and cadence
Some good punches most didnt land for me
I liked the rihanna cheek line
Sounds like  J-Pro but not as good
Robins why was annoying Need more people to do it for it to work 
I liked the name for himself and his closer 

Ree was funny 
Smart attack going disrespectful at his girlfriend who's there 
The battling while sexing was hilarious 
Simple but effective 
Good name flips 
a few slip ups  again 

Edge to Ree
Some good punches in this line 
I loved the name flips  Moving backwards
Reeses Peices line Merk You ree ( mercury)
meh vet line

Ree had some nice punches throughout 
I think Ree had much better pen in this round and outwrote
However it was like  he was losing his breath
Ryan Gosling line lol 
I think Lev had much better delivery 
And some more confidence He came out like he was the champ 

I have to edge that round to Lev for Rees slip ups and delivery or lack thereof.

Close battle Lev deserved to win 

KOTD - #GZGPFINAL - Aftershock vs Urban the Element | #GZ @Shockz @kingofthedot @Urban209 @OrganikHipHop @RexKOTD @GullyTK @BishopBrigante @KingFlyKOTD @NorthANomix @DjDoctaKOTD @SandeepKOTD @JProepsilon @AvocadoIsGod @SketchMenace @ddubbkotd @lasparka604 @WillieBKOTD @NikiyaO @PoisonPenBK @Malathion01 @MouseMediaPro @ScottJacksonBB @RyanPVPKOTD @ReverenceNS @Lemme_kno @DGibs @PhillyDFilms @seansirianni @M_3rcy @JoeCashKOTD @Kryple @elcheapostudios @HipHopVancouver



Check out the 2015 GZ Grand Prix Finals

We got the hometown boy, the KOTD Veteran Aftershock versus 
the new up and comer Urban the Element.

This was a great finale to match what I feel was a great GP. It definitely did it's job by putting to the forefront and letting some forgotten vets that needed to get more shine.


Shocks and Urban had different approaches to this battle where I felt Aftershock went for the talk to him mode ( or talk down to him), while Urban went to the the bar heavy punch approach.

ROUND 1
Loved the Dragon Ball Z  bars  but got slept on 
The Kool aid lines been used before so wasn't feeling that. 
How he broke down Urbans wins and discredit his wins in that round was great. 
Loved the closer

Urban had some punches I am not the fan of just gun bars But he had some good lines here and there
I loved the set up to the Taco truck line.
He could have ended harded then the Gjoni line.
Winner
 Aftershock

ROUND 2
Wow Aftershock went really personal and disrespectful like I've never seen in this. 
Dissing the girl right there was wrong.
Urban lost points for not rebutting the lines to his girl.
Urban had few lines  I like the camel toe  Chris Unbias 
When he went on the used to be at

ROUND 3
Aftershock truly talked to him in this round.
Aftershock also went in on those on the Freshcoast.
Stuff  needed to be said 

Urban was 
The scouts honor line was nice
nice john cena line
I think that Urbans delivery was much better and smoother than Shocks 

Winner Edge to Urban 

I had to agree with the decision. I thought Urban was good but other than a few slip ups 
Aftershock was just better in this.  I hope this propels both of these guys into bigger battles and they keep there upward trajectory.

Battle Rap Spotlight Hitman Holla @HitmanHolla @urltv @KingOfTheDot @DontFlop @NickCannon @WildNOutBattle @AYEVERB @streetstatusdvd

I gotta say I think Hitman might have to had to place 2nd to Verb in STL. I still think Hitman is the best out of that area.
Hitman doesn't really half ass regardless of where he performs or who he performs against.
He had a bit of some off time on some performances but hes one of the most consistent battlers around.

KOTD- RAP BATTLE- #B2B3 @DNA_GTFOH VS @DirtbagDan408 @KOTDTV

CHECK OUT THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED BATTLE FROM BACK 2 BAYSICS 3: DNA VS DIRTBAG DAN. THESE GUYS HAVE GONE BACK AND FORTH AT EACH OTHER FOR A LONG TIME. DAN HAS DONE SOME FAMOUS MOCKERY DNA IMPRESSIONS ON HIS DIRTBAG DAN SHOW. THIS BATTLE SHOWS ME EXACTLY WHAT I DON'T LIKE ABOUT DNA. HE WILL DO A WHOLE BUNCH OF LACKLUSTRE PERFORMANCES, AND YOU THINK HE'S WACK. THEN HE COMES AND DOES A STRONG PERFORMANCE LIKE THIS. I THOUGHT DIRTBAG WAS GOING TO KILL DNA AND WAS PLEASANTLY SURPRISED. ROUND 1 DNA WAS NOT BAD JUST CAME PUNCHING SOME BARS GOOD SOME MEH.. DAN CAME OUT SWINGING AND SHOWED HE WASN'T GOING TO BE FRIENDLY DAN. IT WASN'T TIME FOR JOKES OR BIRD BARS. I THINK EASY WIN FOR DAN ROUND 2 I THINK THE MIX BETWEEN BARS AND JOKES WAS PERFECT ATTACK FROM DNA. HOW HE RETURNED THE DON'T MAKE SENSE ON DAN BUT STILL POPULAR WAS GREAT. DAN WAS MEH... SURPRISINGLY DNA KILLED THAT ROUND. ROUND 3 THIS WAS THE HARDEST ONE TO JUDGE. NEITHER WAS AMAZING AND IT WAS CLOSELY EDGED BATTLE. IT REALLY COULD GO EITHER WAY IF I HAD TO JUDGE EDGE TO DBD.

SMACK/URL PRESENTS : TSU SURF VS BIG T @tsu_surf @bigtqmb @urltv

If yall know anything about me I'm not the biggest street battler fan, I'm much more into the more backpacker style. When someone goes out they go out. This is when I first realized how nice Big T can be. I thought it would be a bodybag like when he faced Hollow. But this was an edge either way. I like that Big T did a breakdown of Surf. Surf just when bars bars bars.....
One of the best battles I have seen.
I prefer the smaller room battles. This is what battles supposed to be like

NWX VS DOT MOBB @k_shine @Rain910 @dna_gtfo @DAYLYT2k @bigtqmb @DaRealTRex @MurdaMookez @PIPERBOYWILLIAM

So this is  the new beef Dot mobb vs NWX. I'm guessing it's over K Shine being in NWX and no longer in Dott Mobb.
Other than Team Homi Dott Mobb to me is the only real crew in battle rap.
It bothers me Rex and Shine aint fucking with each other. I always wanted them to do 2 on 2's
I had the idea of a dott mobb vs the world Summer Madness PPV that might not be able to go well
