Part of me feels that Swizz chose RZA to be Preemo's opponent because his wife, Alicia Keys, is a HUGE Wu-tang groupie. She was all in the comments stanning Wu 
RZA vs Premier IG Live Battle
- Thread starter Newark88
- Start date
Another ill thing about these battles is that it puts some people on to producers they've never really checked out before. You know RZA and Preemo earned new fans on Saturday night. There's no way you hear a beat like Preemo's BOOM and not become a DJ Premier fan after that.

Us mid-late 70's babies is really the last great hip hop generation because these New Jacks don't know shyt about hip hop, these past few days showed how much these kids don't know shyt. Don't read credits, don't know who produced what. The disrespect of the abbot. It was real sad we are in our early to mid 40's and we still have to carry the torch.
Y'all New Jacks will not get the torch because hip hop would die

Real Hip Hop White Boys idolise Primo and see RZA as his number one nemesis. Sad fukks
That clown is a Wack producer anyway - ALC already got that spot locked on the GOAT list.
How could you be a hip hop fan and not fukk with Statik?
Even though I chose Incarcerated Scarface’s over BOOM I still thought it was dope for Premier to play that song, a lot of people sleep on Royce and don’t realize he’s been killing shyt for a long time
Cause he's trash

Look at the exhibition of greatness we just witnessed on Saturday. I haven't heard one beat from that guy that I'd like to revist next year let alone in 25.
Don't fukk with his music and usually I would keep it moving but I seen him talking slick in comments on Saturday so fukk him lol
Rewatching the battle 
This battle kinda rekindled my love for that era. The majority of the things I listen to came out in the past 10 years. It’s really dope that came together to do this. Extended this playlist on Apple Music to include the gems that they did not include.

Was it? I can't remember man.
Well that was a serious misstep on Primo's part. "Boom" is cool but I wouldn't put it in the same stratosphere as "Incarcerated Scarfaces".

I think Erick Sermon would be really interesting in one of these. I know his name has been thrown in the mix. Not sure who he should battle but his catalog is up there when it comes to producers. I feel like he’s very slept on
