Dope

[@CantTellYou]

🎯 stopped paying attention to the battle “scene” when it became all about who can say the cruelest personal attacks & being off-beat with no beat
The small pile of classic recordings we have access to, of real live battles when it was strictly a test of skill, are a historical treasure

[@erykkoziokowski8006]

Is easy make with out this... On screen is good show pictures and emcee must rapping,rhyming about this. In Poland some battles looks like that

[@onceagain6184]

That is the era that I grew up in.
Battling with skill.
I was at a DJ battle when local DJ Lord Cipha battled a then unknown DJ Scratch in Far Rockaway!
