Canibus 3-0 same here cuzzy, they been going downhill for a while but this battle was pure 🔥 crowd was on point and even Eurgh seemed hype and excited.
BA is pretty sick! If he can edit out the trash joking he'd be hard ! Tony won this 2-1 1st and 2nd pretty comfortably, last round from BA was rock solid though ! Soul would absolutely demolish him but Gemini would need London crowd to win it... Good battle though don't really see how anyone has BA winning this battle though? Can anyone explain which rounds and why ? I can't see him winning 1 and 2 in anyone's mind ???
Disagree bro. I rate Tony highly - always have, always will. But Respek came that little bit harder. His second round in particular was sensational. Harder, more memorable punchlines delivered with conviction. Speaking as someone who was in the room, the general consensus is that Respek won 2-1.
I've been watching battle rap since Jumpoff days, honestly its fallen off so hard in recent years when people are spitting generic bars that can apply to anyone. Respek BA has brought back the old school where battlers actually battle their opponent. What an unbelievable performance! Thanks to both MC's for an amazing battle, but Respek BA has arrived in 2017!!!!!! BA vs Soul is already in the making
This is the Don't Flop i remember. Both dudes brought it, 2 different styles, heavy punchlines, debatable rounds, hyped crowd! Could easily rewatch this again numerous times. Respect to Tony and BA for this 🔥
"So I'm about to smash your head in/ it's the end of days, armageddon/ I'll grab a chef's slash your wig and add it to my scalp collection/ then put the blade in you so deep I even push in the handle section/ and as you gasp for breath I'll thank you for helping me stash my weapon" 🔥🔥 Love that shit
It's unlikely at this stage that anyone will read this, but just know, it was funny at 10:15 when the fans started chanting a mixture of 3-O and BA and ended up chanting B.O B.O
Respek Ba is the perfect example of a traditional effective battle rapper who hasn't been to influenced by the scene so he's more organic he's like old Tenchoo he's smart and rips his opponent apart in a simple but funny/brutal way, Tony D is mad nice as always but he's styles like capoeira all this extra shit just for a punch Ba on the other hand just knee's he's opponent in the head over and over again!
OLD DON'T FLOP IS BACK, haven't seen such a good battle for a while. BA was on Fire and TONY is still a champ. It was def a one sided crowd, but Tony only really had one angle. good Battle though should have more event up in Scotland
Respek 2-1. Tony came hard all three rounds but not the absolute best I've seen from him. Also he ironically spat 3 rounds and lost. Nice to watch an enjoyable battle though!!
I don't think people understand this is two different styles at play... Respek Ba has very basic rhymes that hit the crowd because of how disrespectful they are (this is not a dis, his bars are fire) where as tony doesn't try to appeal to that. He has lengthy imaginative bars that reach to a crowd and if you get them you get them and you think shitttt that's mad but if you don't you don't. Tony isn't trying to be something he's not by copying a style many adopt. Anyway this is a great showcase of two different styles and its not judged for a reason because some will appreciate one style and others another so if your saying either battler in this battle is wack your just naïve and can't appreciate what both are doing. SMH at these comments.
Sorry but how the fuck are BA's rhymes basic?? Tony's rhymes are good for a track but not in a battle against a true battler. He spend too much time trying to look clever rather than immediately going for the kill.......might appeal to you obsessive battle nerds but us normal people get bored listening. Guys like BA bring the competitive feel back to battle rap lad.
Agreed. He got that sensationalist style.......basically if you believe his hype you'll think he's amazing.......but an MC like BA doesn't need no illusions, the bars are actually fire!
Commenters here tryna belittle Respek BA for having 'simpler punchlines'. Just because he has a blunter style than Tony, doesn't make him any less impressive. His writing was clean as a whistle in this battle - solid punchlines and they were delivered with absolute conviction. Tony's the man - I think he wins most battles, but Respek got him 2-1 here, let's be real.
Thats what I mis about battle rap from the Jump Off street battles and early DF stuff, simple, effective,funny punchlines and bars - seems like there's too much emphasis now on overly complex "deep" bars
Been a fan of Tony for years and never heard of Respek BA... that being said, first impressions count for a lot and Respek BA just demolished Tony 3 - 0 I'm very very impressed
Hometown advantage aside, B.A won i.m.o. With that said, anyone saying Tony D is wack marked themselves out as fan boys. Two immesely different styles, two amazing performances.
The Christmas light is one of the best lines I've ever heard, and Respek BA is the biggest throwback to when I first watched DF when it started, simple punches but so beautifully put together it connects without the need for 4 bar set ups. Tony D did his thing and was absolute gentleman throughout laughing with the Scottish fans! Both different generations but both sick
All those years smoking weed made you Canibus yourself. 🔥🔥🔥 Close battle though. I think Tony edged the first 2 but shit was preference. Tony's breakdown of BA was surgically precise but BA had some amazing shit too. Dope ass battle.
I've seen bits and pieces of the WRC's, mainly the most talked about battles but didnt realise BA was competing in them. Thanks for the heads up, I'll check it out
Both did their thing; close battle. Respek had a couple dope lines in between the jokes. Props to him. I got Tony winnin. Well written wit the swag. Dope lines. Catch that body in the buildin my guy
Tony starts a fire and breaks BA down perfectly, BA shoots back, both barrels loaded with dragonbreath rounds.. honestly, they both scrapped it out verbally .. I know this was recorded a year ago but still, that was sick af
First battle i ever watched, naturally as someome who has always appreciated well crafted bars and a MAJOR fan of Rhyme Asylum i immediately became a massive fan of both Tony and BA
Wow. BA. That's so impressive for him to come back and absolutely serve one of the top cats in the league. And BA 3-0'd him. Anyone who thinks otherwise is watching a different battle.
Tony D is well and truly top of the top tier, and i have a lot of time for him. Respek BA, who I haven't seen for years, was simply better. Top battle and great crowd also. Would love to see an on-beat battle with these two.
Age ain't Nuttin but a number for real! Grown up battle rap contest here feelin like I've just watched sum don't flop from back in the day. Proper live-o crowd!
Finally, this is the don't flop I remember ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
FACTS
DJ Crisis UK This is first battle I've watched in a looong time bro and I used to watch this shit like a job
Canibus 3-0 same here cuzzy, they been going downhill for a while but this battle was pure 🔥 crowd was on point and even Eurgh seemed hype and excited.

RIP
Coming back to this battle 2023. One of my favourite battles. Both artists went HARD!
ok Eurgh, now we need that Respek BA V Soul battle in Glasgow, Scotland's bossing Don't Flop right now
Scotland are really not bossing it, Gemini would murder Soul in my opinion.
''murder'' - get out
Aaron Lockyer murder hahaha
BA is pretty sick! If he can edit out the trash joking he'd be hard ! Tony won this 2-1 1st and 2nd pretty comfortably, last round from BA was rock solid though !

G dash in the crowd instantly gives it an old school feel
Respek kilt it
mozEXE vote for him then.

"All those years of smoking weed have made you canibus yourself" ffs
this crowd needs to be at every event! LIVE as fuck...
I've been watching battle rap since Jumpoff days, honestly its fallen off so hard in recent years when people are spitting generic bars that can apply to anyone.
Respek BA has brought back the old school where battlers actually battle their opponent.
What an unbelievable performance! Thanks to both MC's for an amazing battle, but Respek BA has arrived in 2017!!!!!! BA vs Soul is already in the making

Scotty Horroh LOOOOL

Not seen Tony disrespected like that in a long, long time. I hope BA's back permanently
This is the Don't Flop i remember.
Both dudes brought it, 2 different styles, heavy punchlines, debatable rounds, hyped crowd! Could easily rewatch this again numerous times.
Respect to Tony and BA for this 🔥
Shout out SAUCYJIZZ!
haven't commented on a battle in years but needed to give this one props!!!!
Dope battle.
All the top bloggers should review this battle a long with the Tony D vs Shox The Rebel & Soul vs Real Deal battles.
Thank you once again don't flop. Both of them Killed this shit, fuck what the comments say.
"So I'm about to smash your head in/ it's the end of days, armageddon/
I'll grab a chef's slash your wig and add it to my scalp collection/ then put the blade in you so deep I even push in the handle section/ and as you gasp for breath I'll thank you for helping me stash my weapon"
🔥🔥 Love that shit
It's unlikely at this stage that anyone will read this, but just know, it was funny at 10:15 when the fans started chanting a mixture of 3-O and BA and ended up chanting B.O B.O
Haha, B-0, B-0, B-0......3 nil clean sweep. Literally futile against BA. Exemplifies scotland - direct clever and funny.
My fucking guy @@paulgibson7162 thank you for commenting on this video, i wrote this while drunk 3 weeks ago and it just made me laugh again cheers
We made it to 2024 bro and yes 🤝
eurgh secretly wants the crowd cheering his name😂😂
Respek Ba is the perfect example of a traditional effective battle rapper who hasn't been to influenced by the scene so he's more organic he's like old Tenchoo he's smart and rips his opponent apart in a simple but funny/brutal way, Tony D is mad nice as always but he's styles like capoeira all this extra shit just for a punch Ba on the other hand just knee's he's opponent in the head over and over again!
LOOOOL a man screamed "HE NEEDS MILK"😂 5:21
fucking hell I think Scotland deserve another event after them reactions. Genuinely buzzing, sick atmosphere. 👊
EURGH won when he bodied the guy yelling in his ear
boy shushed for the rest o the night xD
Lmao
Fucking brilliant battle.
This is my first time seeing Respek BA, can't wait to see him in more shit.
great battle, this Scotland event was fire apparently
OLD DON'T FLOP IS BACK, haven't seen such a good battle for a while.
BA was on Fire and TONY is still a champ.
It was def a one sided crowd, but Tony only really had one angle.
good Battle though should have more event up in Scotland
Respek 2-1 Great battle!

BA is just a legend prolly bodies most people you put him in front of
this is the standard of battles dont flop shpuld be looking to deliver. Perfect time for Tony to battle BA in my opinion.
Like a trip down memory lane :)
Never heard of Respek BA before this but I gotta admit I'm now a fan. Less jokes, more bars & he'll be DEADLY
I've seen bits and pieces of the WRC's, mainly the most talked about battles but didnt realise BA was competing in them. Thanks for the heads up, I'll check it out
Wow this was a straight murder! BA is back god damn!
Tony D did alright but didn't give his opponent due respect & prepare properly. Thought he was gonna win off his name & hype, got 30'd for it.
Danny Jaqq doing his best Eurgh impression, smh cringe
BA's a farking don, old school as
Tony D vs Zombie SHOTTY HORROH
thank you for stashing my weapon crazy bar wooooow
Both did their thing; close battle.
Respek had a couple dope lines in between the jokes. Props to him.
I got Tony winnin. Well written wit the swag. Dope lines.
Catch that body in the buildin my guy
15.56 the Way Tony is nodding at him like, yeah that was pretty good
Best battle I've seen on Dont Flop in months. The venue seemed perfect.
Scotland in Don't Flop is like Detroit in URL! 😂
was sick tho
Ain’t nobody gonna get killed, Eurgh
Of the head I be nice and spin the mic!!
'so people actually remember the shit I haven't written better than you remember the shit you write' 😂😂😂
Ain't watching a battle in years, but seeing Respek BA's name, I couldn't resist, wasn't disappointed, he's been a beast from day 1.
Been a while since I heard some paedo jokes in battling, cracked me up, 'picking every kid up from school except your own', too funny.
Finally a battle without two annoying girls in the front ruining everything
Tony starts a fire and breaks BA down perfectly, BA shoots back, both barrels loaded with dragonbreath rounds.. honestly, they both scrapped it out verbally .. I know this was recorded a year ago but still, that was sick af
Why does this not have quadruple the views Respek BA is the truth 💯
Tony D CLEARLY WON! Listen to the content. Every second is bare gas , B.A. I like BA, but too much gas
I got Tony D taking this battle. Minus all the hometown gas...Respek didn't do enough to win. His rebuttals are fire though.
I am from New York and I wish I was at the event. Looks like mad fun to be able to chill with battle rap fans in Glasgow.
Edinburgh.
they should more battles in Scotland
First battle i ever watched, naturally as someome who has always appreciated well crafted bars and a MAJOR fan of Rhyme Asylum i immediately became a massive fan of both Tony and BA
Wow. BA. That's so impressive for him to come back and absolutely serve one of the top cats in the league. And BA 3-0'd him. Anyone who thinks otherwise is watching a different battle.
Such different styles, good battle
Tony D is well and truly top of the top tier, and i have a lot of time for him. Respek BA, who I haven't seen for years, was simply better. Top battle and great crowd also. Would love to see an on-beat battle with these two.
This was a battle that shook the Heavens
Both of these men are Smiths of their crafts
Eurgh acting all hard...LMAO
Wherever this was held in Edinburgh was a quality choice, had the old outdoor feel to it
Best battle uploaded in a while
Finally a good battle, need to get Respek BA on another card as soon as possible!
You know you got a good bar in when you get physically manhandled by the people around you
Good battle. BA had some decent bits and good presence. But Tony's writing was a step up, so Tone for the win.
Respek BAA is a serious fucking problem if he keeps that form up.
lol
I actually love watching tony battle. His battle swag..This shit comes so easy to him hes actually having fun doing it.
Nice battle sik crowd tony looked happy like he enjoyed it nice to see
Age ain't Nuttin but a number for real! Grown up battle rap contest here feelin like I've just watched sum don't flop from back in the day. Proper live-o crowd!
Jheeeze, this crowd was wild
Few more battles then BA vs Soul will be dope
Not been a matchup likes these since OldeEnglish &Unan were still about - play back ability - started well this year DF
this event was crazy, big things for df 2017
Matt Lyons how wrong you were
Tony 2-1 with ba taking the third..
BA vs SHOTTY!!!!
Tony D raps like a 70's beat poet ✊🏻
Still one of my favourite battles, Tony always good but respek ba serious packing a powerful lyrical punch🤣💥💨💯🤜
Man i miss battlers like BA gives me that old battle rap feeling if you know what i mean
G dash really needs to update his wardrobe same hat and jacket he had from a year ago
BA killed it
BA won nothing else to say if you disagree that's fine but you are wrong.
Did I just witness Tony D getting owned? That's like the best thing I have seen from here in a while. 🙂
I always wondered what happened to Respek BA. Now I'm ready for a Kulez comeback battle!
SBPS no
Tony D best U.K. Battler hands down
this battle deserves more than 1k likes
Get to know the real levels in battle rap. Respek been killing it from day and not much has changed. #DFAFD
