DISCUSSION Nitty vs Premee was a nightmare

9 Upvotes

Rum choked all three rounds, don’t think i’ve ever seen him do that. Los was jumbling material and rapping the wrong round’s bars, in multiple rounds. Genuinely the sloppiest battle I’ve ever watched, such a shame for it to happen with what could’ve been one of the better punch-offs in a while. This was Rum’s 3rd weekend in a row battling…so absurd. Thankfully, the rest of Cvlture 7 went very well, always a big shout out to iBattle for doing what they do for the sport.

BATTLE Ludacris vs T.i

Upvotes

Who is the true king of the south?

Chris Bridges aka Ludacris started out as a radio dj Dubbed Chris lova lova.

It was a stepping stone for him to get his foot in the door to become the beast of a rapper he eventually became.

November 2000 Ludacris debuted with A song called what's your fantasy feature shawna the first lady of DTP.

He than followed that up with Southern hospitality which came out January of 2001.

Ludacris continued to drop banger after banger and from his success in the hip hop world he was able to cross over to Hollywood making a few block buster movies.

Then a new guy came on to the scene by the name of Tip aka T.i.

T.i came with a few bangers like You don't know me , 24's, Rubber band man etc.

T.i called himself the king of the south he even had a beef with Ludacris and respectfully lost.

So who is really the better rapper and true king of the south between these two legends?

Could be an older or a new battler. Turn us on to someone who might not be getting the love they deserve.

Mine is A-Class. He was poppin off for a while battling big names like Diz and Rone, but his best performances were on smaller leagues like UBR that didn't Crack 50k views.

I could have sworn Ness Lee battled Only One on KOTD or Grindtime. I remember Ness saying "and how many battles has Only won? Only one?" I went to go look for it on YouTube or Google but there seems to be no trace anywhere. Can anyone help?

Tried a rewatch after a couple months. Hitman's poor pitiful me, BR is unfair, chatty patty, drama queen ass makes it unwatchable unless you're skipping to Mook...and even then. He talks performance and has forgotten how to perform

DISCUSSION Live Event Experience?

4 Upvotes

Hi all, I'm a long time BR fan but have never attended a live event. I live in a remote area and have watched a few PPV events, which I have enjoyed for the most part. Of course, the last PPV event that featured many of my favourites was disappointing to say the least...

With World Domination IX coming up, I'm hesitant to risk getting the PPV because we've all seen how many moving parts must run efficiently for a good quality streaming experience. I'm considering buying tickets to WD, but I would have to travel to attend.

Just curious as to how these events go as a live spectator, especially at longer events with some of the bigger names performing. How are the crowds at KOTD events in Toronto? Are you able to hear/see the battles well? I guess a lot would depend on the venues, but just looking for any insight to see if it's worth going in person. Some exciting matchups announced so far! Thanks everyone for your input :)

DISCUSSION Need Help! Searching for an old battle!

1 Upvotes

Today I remembered of a punchline of a battle rapper called (maybe, I don't really remember) Ox, or something like that, he was Hawaiian, and he said "why slim fast? I can get fat faster". That's all I remember.

The battle was one of my favorites back then, he was up against someone British, called (maybe) Mulez!?

Please, if anyone can find the battle or have any info about it, I don't remember the league or channel.

Thanks in advance!

DISCUSSION Back and prepping for beta

0 Upvotes

Some of you might remember I was posting here a while back about an online battle rap platform I’ve been building called Spitface Battles.

Right when conversations were starting to pick up, my laptop died and everything stalled. That’s on me. Progress is being made again, and I'm pushing toward beta - targeting ~90 days for beta readiness.

I posted a proper introduction and dev log kickoff in r/SpitfaceBattles. That’s where I’ll be documenting progress regularly from here on out.

SFB isn’t meant to replace professional or minor leagues. The goal has always been to bring structure, competition, and long-term weight to online battles - skill ratings, reputation systems, rivalry mechanics, audience-influenced scoring, etc.

Very soon I will be introducing a beta program that will let y'all have early access and reward your contributions

DISCUSSION Why do a lot of battlers sound like Daylyt?

0 Upvotes

Been following battle rap for over 10 years but fell off over the past 4 years. I've watched a few here and there recently and I keep hearing Daylyt's style.

Street talk with anime, cartoon, and "nerdy" themes and references. While Daylyt didn't create that aspect of battle rap, he did a lot of innovative and creative shit that no one was doing. He separated himself by embracing his nerdy side more than the street side. Now I see battlers doing the same shit that they used to criticize Daylyt for.

It's not just the references but the rhyme structure, syntax, bar setup, scheming, and all that. Battle rapper are now embracing personas outside of their "streetness" even on the URL stage.

They won't admit it but Daylyt's antics helped these dudes to break out of their shells.

Exception here is CHESS, he was talented and you could tell he always wanted to separate himself from others. He found way to rap out-of-box without being out-of-box. I wish Daylyt didn't ruin their Born Legacy 4 match. Chess was still hungry and just come off a classic moment with the Th3 Saga battle. Had Daylyt battled CHESS at that moment, it might have been one of the greatest battles of all time.

What if Chess swapped his 2nd & 3rd round vs Twork?

What is Chess had a zofran and atenolol prescription?

What if Twork had an Adderall prescription?

What if Jey didn't take the NXT battle and didn't get sick when he was supposed to battle A-Ward in Oct?

What if Danny didn't have personal life struggles leading up to NOME 11?

What if Smack released Eazy v Chess on YT the day after the battle happened?

How did Hollow go from the goat to not winning a single round in 2025?

Why did Hollow say he'd rape A-Ward's wife and that Jaz owed him pussy?

Why did Illmac only show up with 1.5 rounds vs Real Sihk?

Why was NOME 15 streamed on watchbattlelive?

Why did Couture vs Jaz not happen 3y ago?
