The caliber (:nofancy:) of vicious battle rappers coming out of the Bay lately is downright retarded. Foolz are just crushing.

crowd was very "hip hop" to put it nicely. i felt like i stepped back into 2002 with the attire of most of the crowd. but overall i had a really good time and was thoroughly entertained by all the anticipated battles, and i ignored most of the battles that weren't so anticipated.


i broke up the fight between dead poets brother and the dude he was beating up. no joke.

yeah they weren't really tripping that hard on in's and out's because there were probably four hundred people there and only two security guards.

but yeah man, your boys fredo and swarm roll deeeeep with the phillipino support. felt bad for the dudes battling them cuz crowd support was so one sided for their battles.

Those nights were dope. Don't go to many shows where people actually seem to be interested in the performers like they are at all the grind time events.


The beat battles were pretty nice too.

I know how it goes when rappers bring their boys to battles. So i'll trust your opinion. Would you say they won convincingly?

oh yeah they both definitively won, not taking away from their performances whatsoever. but i'm sure it was like insult to injury with the deep crowd for the other guys.

When done correctly, yes.
Sometimes, shit doesn't goes as planned though:

just the last "battle of the bay."

lush will be announcing new plans soon, on to new formats before that event goes stale. smart forward thinking imo.

I would have to liked to see this live. Hopefully theres a DVD, or the battles are released quickly. Maybe I'll make it to Bad Blood in NYC for Halloween.
