RZA vs Premier IG Live Battle

[Pack2]

I think the general consensus on Twitter is Rza edged it


On here I see more people have Primo


I hate the cop out of “Primo didn’t play the right songs” then that’s his fault, and you can say the same for RZA because he didn’t play Cream or Triumph until mad later.

i think Preem won but a slight edge after really going back. Originally the first 20 I had 13-7 Premier but now I have it 11-9. After the 20 I have it 4-4

I had it 11-9 RZA and 4-4 with the overtime tracks

Alot of my boys had a mix between 13-7 Preme and 11-9 RZA and everything in between

That speaks volumes to how close this really was and it's all a matter of preference really

Memory Lane?
Post the YouTube please.

Scientifik, rapper from Boston (He’s dead now). In fact a lot of his records on his debut (unreleased) had mad samples people used years later

Crazy.
But you know what they say, rap is an art. You can’t own no loops. It’s the way you hook em up. Plus the rhyme style troop.

That’s a fact. Get At Me Dog is basically get The Bozack by EPMD. That’s just hip hop.

mad samples!! i was shocked when i peeped it..

like how trackmasters and clark kent went through EPMD's albums..lol

That’s a fact. Get At Me Dog is basically get The Bozack by EPMD. That’s just hip hop.

And they used it on Mase Harlem World album the year before. “Will They Die For You?”.

 

[spliz]

It’s crazy that Cream and Triumph didn’t make it in the original 20

RZA was more strategic with his picks, but not counting rounds was a huge mistake.
And I still have him winning.
And like @Houston911 said playing NYSOM to counter Maria was a huge mistake.

Premo played Mathematics to counter Maria. Not NYSOM.

You "get along gang" ass nikkas

There's winners and losers in battles, deal with it

Wu Tang won this shyt. Bong bong.

1. Tie
2. RZA
3. Primo
4. RZA
5. I said RZA last night but it could be a tie
6. RZA
7. RZA
8. RZA
9. RZA
10. RZA
11. Primo
12. RZA
13. Primo
14. Primo (RZA didn’t produce Brooklyn Zoo)
15. Primo
16. Primo
17. Primo
18. Primo
19. RZA
20. RZA
    
21. RZA
22. RZA
23. RZA
24. RZA
25. Primo
26. Primo
27. Primo
28. Primo

so if we go off the first twenty I got RZA winning 10-8-2. And if I have to choose I’m giving both the ties to RZA.

If we include everything RZA still wins 14-12-2.

I don't see any way anyone can give the W to Premier. RZA dominated the first 10 and took enough in 10-20 to win.
People acting like RZA couldn't go longer and hang with Primo


Winter Warz (go straight to Cappa's verse and that's a W)
Camay
4th Chamber
Release Yo Delf
All That I Got is You
Glaciers of Ice
Can It Be All So Simple
Chessboxin
Shadowboxin
Hollow Bones
Heaven or Hell
Rainy Dayz

It gets worse if they went more rounds because RZA had these in the stash and he'd show more diverse production than Primo could.

I honestly think RZA forgot about most of these songs and he forgot he didn't make Brooklyn Zoo

It's the same way rappers forget their lyrics. They don't pay attention to themselves like fans do. He should have googled his production credits.

My fav moment of the night was when Rza pulled out Long Kiss



nikkas had no idea he produced it

 

[Awesome Wells]

Pretty much.

It's like after Pete said Q-Tip "stole" the beat for "The Jazz" from him, and remixed "The World Is Yours" and got a video for it too, Pete started intentionally flipping the same samples that Tip was using. LOL!! I remember Marley took a call on Future Flavas and the caller asked why he was doing that and Pete hung up on him and went on a tirade. This is back when Hip Hop fans kept dudes accountable.

Original top 20 I have it 10-9 Premo. 1-1 Tie.
If we go past that. 14-9 Premo. 3-3 Tie.
