Canibus threw the battle after being paid by Goldberg Spinklestein to give this person credibility.
I still cant listen to all of this. Its humiliating to listen to.
Someone make a gif of canibus swaying from side to side while looking at his notepad.
someone get on that!
battle rap is nikkas babbling about shoes and being broke that shyt aint mcing :
canibus isn't even a real battle mc, he just spits battle raps on wax.
for the record, g-rap, rakim, nas, az, common, ghost, jay, etc couldn't beat dizaster in a battle either. face to face battling is a whole different art than making records.
Some of the rappers you mentioned were battling when they were coming up.
That was one of the ways you could get your name known to those in the biz, going to other peoples blocks and battling, constantly testing yourself, might end up in a studio session, start getting shown/learn how to craft records.
How do you think they got so nice?
PRESSURE.
Look on the flipside to your argument some of these new school battle MC's (and I use that term lightly) struggle to stay on beat, and couldn't craft a record if their life depended on it.
lol, i hope you don't think any of them could beat dizaster in a face to face battle. Nas and the rest have styles that are great for making records, not face to face battling. it's 2 differen't things. canibus sucks at both.
It is mandatory for an MC to battle that and ciphering were are basic requirements.
It is akin to the horse stance of Karate or a 1,2 jab combination from a boxer.
But hey your the one who is acting like their one dimensional.

I havent laughed this hard since the smilies throught history thread.
actually I think I surpassed that. thank god I didnt see this while at work
look at it like this. cuban linx and iron man > dizaster's life... but you really think raekwon or ghost could beat dizaster in a face to face battle?
