Uncertain grounds
snoop almost swept the first half and snuck a couple wins in the second but swizz's selections were as strong as possible for the most part. was hoping for damien

appreciated the idahih intro as first song
snoop playing that eastsidaz track was an unforced error

i was very familiar with both catalogs so nothing surprised me but it reinforced that snoop is one of the best of all time..stronger case for him to be higher in the ranks than i previously gave him. him going off the top while extremely fukked up was the best part of the whole thing. and he didnt just spell his name a 1000 times either. he didnt really play his goofy shyt and i thought he made it abundantly clear that he knows hes just fukkin around and trying to have fun and make money and not rap rap anymore. he even said once that he "used to be an MC" or something. love it

Wow Legendary ish. Did Snoop have a larger bag to pull from? Yes but in these types of battles it's about what you pick. Having a massive catalog is great but you have so much to choose from. Sure Snoop list was still fire but he left some sure fire points off too. Look X catalog isn't that bad when you look at it overall. People have to understand. X didn't have that many huge hits like that billboard charts. People brought X's albums, his entire body of work. X's LP's have some really strong album cuts on them. He played a damn intro in the battle that's how good his album cuts are. DMX's biggest Solo hit on the Billboard Hot 100 is "Party Up" which peaked at #27.

His Biggest hit overall believe it or not is his feature Lox's "Money Power Respect" which peaked at #17 (It's also X's only #1 song on the Rap Charts). "Get at me dog" and "Stop being Greedy" were Top 10 Rap Hits though. Yet his songs still felt like huge hits even when they weren't like "Ruff Ryders Anthem", "How it going down", "What these B!tches want", "What's My Name" etc. Snoop's has more hits overall and a deeper catalog for sure but X's catalog is still strong. I knew this was going to be much closer and people were sleeping on X. I was sure "Slippin" was going do damage too. "Murder was a case" was good counter too. Man X is a certified Legend. The idea he would get blown out is ridiculous. But Snoop did leave some heavy hitters off the board. That's how much heat Snoop has in his catalog. Overall, Another amazing show Swizz and Tim definitely one the best. They both looked like they were having such a good time. Snoop makes everything a party, lol.. Loved the Battle of the Dogs.
