he delivered so poorly though. his style was very bland and his verse structure had no hype. its called performance dayuum that third verse was killer from dna perfect example there
I'm Italian and I don't always get everything they spit but when I'm not sure I look at Organik's expression. When I see him making the face he had at 10:38 I know it was a seriously mad verse. Great battlers and great battle, thanks a lot for all this movement guys. Peace, from Italy.
its funny how white folks always wann say "he went too far" when a nigga get in that ass, but let white rapper win the battle and its all good- its called battlin, no rules- u lose u lose- he said some cold shit, n its the spirit of hip hop acknowledging poverty against benefit
Thesaurus came off VERY insecure here, talking throughout Dna's rounds. Thesaurus has really stepped up his pen game, but seriously dude, shut the fuck up when others are rapping.
il100374 Few years back I was enjoying thesaurus as a battle rapper, but right now I just want someone to step on the stage with him and out right kill him with bars. Srsly, he's being too disrespectful.
This was a dope ass battle. It could of went both ways. I give it to DNA due to the 3rd round flip and paying homage to both of their fathers.... and dissing the saureses father throught his father, epic genius shit
Yes, DNA's bars were better with the Pete Rose stuff and the personals, but a lot of Thesaurus' bars were heavily slept on. You can at least agree with that, right?
CoMing back and rewatching a lot of battles I always fast forwarded right to the battle.. this time I’m actually watching the pre battle interviews and shit and it’s cool to hear what they say.. I miss the old days..
DNA has no weaknesses. His writtens, rebuttals, and freestyles are all great. He can out gangster rap a gangster...he can out wordplay an intellectual mc...I think he's probably the best in the world right now.
DNA had a good angle in the third but come on guys.Don't act like you didn't hear DNA fucking up by saying "speaking about paps,yours will never be a better man than yours".I swear to god he said it,listen closely.
Round 1 - Thesaurus Bar for bar, punch after punch he easily. Not only did he predict DNA's angles he out bar'd the shit out of DNA with the same angles. His structure felt so much better and flow very clear with no bumps, awesome delivery. Round 2 - Thesaurus This round is closer but thesaurus edged it. Put both MC's rounds onto paper and thesaurus easily takes it. Pit eachothers delivery and i still have thesaurus over dna. With DNA spitting the hardest punches, bar after bar thesaurus put it on the WHOLE round. Round 3 - Thesaurus First time watching the vid i gave it to DNA. Watching over n over changed my mind. I have no qualms over anyone picking DNA this round but I urge you to listen carefully to both MC's. Delivery wise this is where DNA stepped up and had MUCH better presence than thesaurus (prolly due to thesaurus's lack of crowd reaction). It just sucks how DNA had to use a freakin 20 million bars to set up his punches otherwise it'd he would've taken this round. Thesaurus's bars connected so flawlessly with his multis. I love it when he takes a battle seriously. DNA as usual, really knows how to hype up his bars before his punches. If they swapped their verse structures this would've been DNA by bodybag. Less setups (or hyping up) and more punches. THATS how battles should be won. Awesome battle in the end. This battle deserved a WAY better crowd.
great battle, both came out with strong material but i def give it to DNA. regardless who you think won, when the 2 emcees spit like this everyone wins especially the viewers
'Now everyone in here should be respecting me today. Cuz you can't be a father overseen without testing DNA.' Amazing finisher line. The 3rd round made DNA the winner imo.
Yo, DNA is on his way up the ladder. The dude's got it. Respect to Thesaurus, a battle rap legend and he did his thing, too. This battle was great, slept on.,
Yeah, I know I'm saying it was slept on a year after it came out; I've been getting back into the battle rap scene and have been binge-watching KOTD battles.
TheSaurus is one of my favourite free stylers buh DNA spoke sum real shit in the third round that hit him hard nd I fink everyone could feel how deep dat shit was. buh overall great battle. two good freestylers.
DNA's 3rd was crazy, but this crowd is terrible I'm assuming they just didn't catch the punchlines. either way i think this battle was really good. u could give it to either one depending on preference. it should definitely have more views though.
The saurus won as soon as DNA spit the name flips that Saurus literally telegraphed he would use. Not enough people take that into account. DNA literally used almost the same name flips Saurus used first for himself. As far as I am concerned that's basically an automatic victory in a battle where both did pretty well.
You gotta be kidding me both of them were excellent I'm not much for rapping but when I watch this kotd rap battle I really enjoyed it I think DNA is really going someplace if he's not already there I hope to see more of these very good battles
YOOOOOO.... Thesaurus isn't my favorite battle rapper but that rebuttal about the book/index/thesaurus line was one of the best I've ever heard. Clever too.
damn good battle. Both were on point. IMO first 2 rounds were close. I leaned more to The Saurus for both. 3rd round was FIRE. Both came strong. DNA was better in that round. Close 2-1. But this could go either way. Props!
Classic battle! Both DNA and The Saurus went hard...definitely worth watching more than once. I got one question?? Who did that dope ass instrumental at the beginning of the video and where can I get that? ONE!
I think you missed the point that the reference was dealing with life's hardships. Thesaurus was talking "hard shit" (guns, killer which is unlike him) and that was the reference. Both were good.
This battle was actually so well rounded, extremely equal in this one from 2 generations. The Saurus I think was pretty slept on since DNA has that New Jack momentum. Elementally I feel this was equally balanced. Good show.
TheSaurus had mad multies but DNA was on some real shit. Following is my break up. Round1 - The Saurus Round2 - Tie (if not DNA took it by a lil bit) Round3 - DNA Good Battle overall !
No matter how many times i watch this battle i cant change my mknd on Thesaurus winning. He was so slept on its unreal. You try angles (triangles) that are one dimensional, me im a tetrohedron. Like 2 people reactedl. Some people are so blinkered when they what battles its unreal.
I have to admit I thought DNA might lose but wow. 1st off every round from Saurus and DNA were very very good! A classic battle but I have to say DNA won 3-0
No, I had never heard of him, but I'm listening now. It's fucking great. I'm in, for sure, but how does this argue that the metaphor works? Is there a specific song you're thinking about?
Scorecard: Round 1:(14-13,DNA). Round 2:(15-12,Saurus). Round 3:(15-13,DNA). Pretty close battle, The Saurus was dope as usual. But I say DNA took this. DNA 2-1...
No matter what this is a 2 : 1 battle in favor of The Saurus. DNA's third round was sick I will never deny that, it is one of my favorite rounds in battle rap, BUT you have to give the other rounds to The Saurus.
saurus predicted dna's angles and strategies all throughout the battle.. dna was too predictable and saurus took advantage of that plus his material was fire.. i like dna alot but he's had a rough 2013
Thesaurus bars were so slept on
sleepon your mouth
Declan Vaikeli He's right....and you're dumb.
Yea they were slept on a lot!!
he delivered so poorly though. his style was very bland and his verse structure had no hype. its called performance dayuum that third verse was killer from dna perfect example there
DNA's third was incredibly sloppy.
I'm Italian and I don't always get everything they spit but when I'm not sure I look at Organik's expression. When I see him making the face he had at 10:38 I know it was a seriously mad verse.
Great battlers and great battle, thanks a lot for all this movement guys. Peace, from Italy.
Grande fra sei uno dei pochi che guarda queste battle
That crowd was asleep during every one of The Saurus's rounds. Almost all of his punchlines went over their heads.
dna always looks like hes about to cry
I thought I was the only one who noticed that lol
East Bay
East Bay I thought I was the only one who noticed that too
for real..kinda frrl bad
feel bad...
It’s called passion. You see people passion when the hunger comes out
The Sarus was slept on. Two of my favorite battlers.
Anyone else noticed the contrast in DNA's interviews Before and After the battle?
its funny how white folks always wann say "he went too far" when a nigga get in that ass, but let white rapper win the battle and its all good- its called battlin, no rules- u lose u lose- he said some cold shit, n its the spirit of hip hop acknowledging poverty against benefit
Thesaurus came off VERY insecure here, talking throughout Dna's rounds. Thesaurus has really stepped up his pen game, but seriously dude, shut the fuck up when others are rapping.
il100374 Few years back I was enjoying thesaurus as a battle rapper, but right now I just want someone to step on the stage with him and out right kill him with bars. Srsly, he's being too disrespectful.
Fr he talked the whole time DNA wss going off
frysdog93 got slept on tho prob pissed from that
seriouslyhatin he was spittin candy bars.
Rayjohn Tagayon Fresco fucked him up bar for bar.
This was a dope ass battle. It could of went both ways. I give it to DNA due to the 3rd round flip and paying homage to both of their fathers.... and dissing the saureses father throught his father, epic genius shit
If I had to pick a winner, DNA because of how hard he finished in round 3. Otherwise, both were solid.
Are yall kidding me , Thesaurus 3-0 and i fucks with DNA heavy but damn crowd was bias as fuck yu even listen to what saurus was saying Damn
DNA also fucked up saying "speaking about paps,yours will never be a better man than yours".
Saurus was fire as usual but DNA fucking snapped in his third. Love this battle
Thesaurus predicted them Pete name flips .. crazy
Saurus had them over-the-head bars this time... ones that make you think and don't result in instant reaction.
Yes, DNA's bars were better with the Pete Rose stuff and the personals, but a lot of Thesaurus' bars were heavily slept on. You can at least agree with that, right?
DNA KILLED IT. THAT LAST ROUND FIRE!
"Cause thats the first time I've seen a thesaurus lost for words" lyrical af
CoMing back and rewatching a lot of battles I always fast forwarded right to the battle.. this time I’m actually watching the pre battle interviews and shit and it’s cool to hear what they say.. I miss the old days..
DNA's third was fire.
yeah it made him win with ease
The passion in his voice tho
DNA has no weaknesses. His writtens, rebuttals, and freestyles are all great. He can out gangster rap a gangster...he can out wordplay an intellectual mc...I think he's probably the best in the world right now.
Charron bodied him and his style got boring not gonna lie lol
yeah even before i heard his rounds i was thinkin how hard to beat DNA is
guy is a 2 time everything and people still underestimate him he always shows up and gives classics hats off to both classic battle
"u can't be a father on a scene whitout testing DNA."
DAMN
I think DNA 2-1. DNA got the first and last round. 2 goes to the Saurus
I gotta go with DNA on this too, but shit man, The Saurus been going forever and he still came on stronger on this than he has been.
Dna always come with the heat no matter what!!!
DNA won 3-0... freestyles, personals, word play and bars.... he won in every category
These guys are awesome... they deserved a better crowd...
DNA's 3rd round was off the hook!
DNA had a good angle in the third but come on guys.Don't act like you didn't hear DNA fucking up by saying "speaking about paps,yours will never be a better man than yours".I swear to god he said it,listen closely.
Doesn't matter. Saurus lost.

dope! both these guys got it in. Hard to pick a winner on this one, both had presentation, bars, lyrics, and both showed lots of class. Dope battle!
Round 1 - Thesaurus
Bar for bar, punch after punch he easily. Not only did he predict DNA's angles he out bar'd the shit out of DNA with the same angles. His structure felt so much better and flow very clear with no bumps, awesome delivery.
Round 2 - Thesaurus
This round is closer but thesaurus edged it. Put both MC's rounds onto paper and thesaurus easily takes it. Pit eachothers delivery and i still have thesaurus over dna. With DNA spitting the hardest punches, bar after bar thesaurus put it on the WHOLE round.
Round 3 - Thesaurus

Awesome battle in the end. This battle deserved a WAY better crowd.
your a fucking fanboy. Your whole comment shows everyone you know noithing about hip hop. fucking soilderboy ass nigga
Thanks for the constructive comment. Anything else you want to add?
You're entitled to your opinion, but I don't believe the battlers felt it was a 3-0 either way
They both look like proactive before actors
lolololol
great battle, both came out with strong material but i def give it to DNA. regardless who you think won, when the 2 emcees spit like this everyone wins especially the viewers
This was a good ass battle
no...
That last around from DNA was classic. One of the best rounds of his career Real Talk
Thesaurus had some ill bars that got slept on real hard, either way DNA killed this, really hope he gets a title shot
'Now everyone in here should be respecting me today. Cuz you can't be a father overseen without testing DNA.'
Amazing finisher line. The 3rd round made DNA the winner imo.
BOOKMARK 🚨👍🚨👍
THE SAURUS vs DNA
RD 1:
RD 2:
RD 3:
Good battle..Like both rappers but DNA got that one in my opinion..
When DNA talked about his father ,black and white lines it was amazing i had goosebumps :)
That Charlie Clips 3-0 bodybag doe
Dna last round was heartfelt
DNA is probably my favourite kotd rapper now. lol, just from the 3rd verse, so much respect
Dna won in my humble opinion but Sauraus got slept on HARD..... Who's the white chick for real 'tho?
The one standing behind The Saurus, next to Lush One? Laura Tarsi
Tom Connolly definitely what caught my attention
Laura Tarsi who was Charrons fake girlfriend? What does she have to do with battle rap? Is she a battle rap groupie?
My thoughts exactly
Battle Rappers 3 - 0 The Crowd.
Yo, DNA is on his way up the ladder. The dude's got it.
Respect to Thesaurus, a battle rap legend and he did his thing, too. This battle was great, slept on.,
Yeah, I know I'm saying it was slept on a year after it came out; I've been getting back into the battle rap scene and have been binge-watching KOTD battles.
john cena really let himself go..
hahahahahah does look like him too.
looks like john cena on crack hahaha
dna
Should be , and will be a lot more my man , it was a great battle !
DNA
The Saurus is sucks DNA killed him !!!
Its hard him to type good english when he lives in a cave lmao
***** yaya hassan yes ,speak proper english or propper "slang"before u post, because you sound like an idiot lol.
I love these cats you can see how much they love battling and have fun doing it also respecting each other. DNA THOOOO love that dood.
DNA hands down that shit was dope all 3 rounds
TheSaurus is one of my favourite free stylers buh DNA spoke sum real shit in the third round that hit him hard nd I fink everyone could feel how deep dat shit was. buh overall great battle. two good freestylers.
DNA's 3rd was crazy, but this crowd is terrible I'm assuming they just didn't catch the punchlines. either way i think this battle was really good. u could give it to either one depending on preference. it should definitely have more views though.

DNA literally used almost the same name flips Saurus used first for himself. As far as I am concerned that's basically an automatic victory in a battle where both did pretty well.
Good battle, Rd1-DNA, Rd2-Draw, Rd3-DNA, but all were very close imo.
You gotta be kidding me both of them were
excellent I'm not much for rapping but when I watch this kotd rap battle I really enjoyed it I think DNA is really going someplace if he's not already there I hope to see more of these very good battles
YOOOOOO.... Thesaurus isn't my favorite battle rapper but that rebuttal about the book/index/thesaurus line was one of the best I've ever heard. Clever too.
Americans and Brits always sound sick but Canadians always sound nerdy and hilarious
i like dna..he got some sick lines especially in the last round in every battle..my favorite one, DNA vs DIZASTEE
16:35 who is DS? Is this battle on YT?
diaz
the expression on faces in the beginning proves that this whole situation was controlled and the winner is determined before they even rap
damn good battle. Both were on point. IMO first 2 rounds were close. I leaned more to The Saurus for both. 3rd round was FIRE. Both came strong. DNA was better in that round. Close 2-1. But this could go either way. Props!
Classic battle! Both DNA and The Saurus went hard...definitely worth watching more than once.
I got one question??
Who did that dope ass instrumental at the beginning of the video and where can I get that?
ONE!
yo....friendly ass intro...wtf...i wasnt expectin that shyt...thumbs uppp
I think you missed the point that the reference was dealing with life's hardships. Thesaurus was talking "hard shit" (guns, killer which is unlike him) and that was the reference.
Both were good.
gotta respect that 3rd from DNA
Battle was so slept on in general but especially on Pete's side. Thesaurus probably penned some of his best bars ever in this battle.
This battle was actually so well rounded,
extremely equal in this one from 2 generations.
The Saurus I think was pretty slept on since DNA has that New Jack momentum.
Elementally I feel this was equally balanced. Good show.
TheSaurus had mad multies but DNA was on some real shit. Following is my break up.
Round1 - The Saurus
Round2 - Tie (if not DNA took it by a lil bit)
Round3 - DNA
Good Battle overall !
The best iv eva seen DNA both went in hard wicked battle will be watching many more times
dna is too sick. both went hard. Respect
No matter how many times i watch this battle i cant change my mknd on Thesaurus winning. He was so slept on its unreal. You try angles (triangles) that are one dimensional, me im a tetrohedron. Like 2 people reactedl. Some people are so blinkered when they what battles its unreal.
DNA... All the way..bigups man
respect them both for respecting each other.
DNA really has a good delivery...his word play and the way he step up the rappers is one of the best. DNA 3-0.
Wicked battle by both guys
I'll give it a close ..... DRAW 😬
Why does The Saurus' Writtens and freestyles sound the same? Oh, cause they are.
13:53 how come it looks like Suge Knight is in the background
DNA ROUND 2 SPIT LIKE 3 BARS FOR ONE DISS AND THE FINAL ONE WAS SO WORTH IT
U know what I'm not even gonna finish this vid halfway. I hear DNA spit first 30secs and I know who's coming out on top
Saurus was crazy.... but I think DNA is just rising on another level.
I have to admit I thought DNA might lose but wow. 1st off every round from Saurus and DNA were very very good! A classic battle but I have to say DNA won 3-0
Actual battle starts at 4:38
One of the best showdowns ever on KOTD!!!
These guys are a perfect matchup two legends great battle
No, I had never heard of him, but I'm listening now. It's fucking great. I'm in, for sure, but how does this argue that the metaphor works? Is there a specific song you're thinking about?
Wow this battle is fucking great!
its so funny how clips is mouthing all of DNA's lines while DNA is rapping.. it's so obvious he writes for him
DAILY NEWS you dumb as fuck he knew Clips wayyyyyy b4 Dizaster battle
Omg it is obviously 😶
Scorecard: Round 1:(14-13,DNA). Round 2:(15-12,Saurus). Round 3:(15-13,DNA). Pretty close battle, The Saurus was dope as usual. But I say DNA took this. DNA 2-1...
WOW....almost everyone slept on that barrel scheme from thesaurus..
No matter what this is a 2 : 1 battle in favor of The Saurus. DNA's third round was sick I will never deny that, it is one of my favorite rounds in battle rap, BUT you have to give the other rounds to The Saurus.
Man. This was a good battle and I had it going either way . Then DNAs third happened. Homie fucking snapped and snapped hard.
I can hear Charlie Clips cadence and wordplay sometimes in DNA's verse. He is a fucking biter, but still a great freestyler.
dna always looking sick before battles
DNA Doing his thing!!!
saurus predicted dna's angles and strategies all throughout the battle.. dna was too predictable and saurus took advantage of that plus his material was fire.. i like dna alot but he's had a rough 2013
