The first time I heard Ice battle I was like “what the OG talkin about” but after going back and lookin at his battles that man be spitting forreal. Intricate bars and he speak in code a lot like he used to ducking the boys! You just gotta listen.
That’s the sad part! It’s like he’s so intricate with it, they don’t get it in the room. Thats unfortunate because he’s a genius with the pen. Lux also. They say the same thing. He’s super complex. Daylyt THESE cats are God Tier Level.
That's what I'm sayin bro. I been fuckin wit Xcel since his battle wit daytyt. Dudes bars is always mad crazy. He was choking for a little bit a couple years ago but still nasty
Xcel made that look too easy. Congrats to him. Congrats to the crowd for not putting pressure on Ice when he had some difficulty in his third round. Congrats to KOTD for this event and all that you did and is still doing for the culture.
I text at least 5 people just now .. Watching a battle rap this old nigga called head ice.. said "I'll smacc the wind out you then catch ya breath" 😳😳😳
I swear...born 1975.....I could be wrong....the only dude from my generation still killing dudes in battle rap. I'm not from NY...Head Ice still that top dude. Not that anybody asked...Cassidy hot but...Head Ice that dude, fuck half stepping with him.
Ice is one of those guys who usually has an incredible line every battle, sometimes a handful, but as is the case with a lot of battle rap, I don't get half of what he says. But to me it's always worth it to catch the jewels he has. I can remember some battles, like the quarantined RBE round, where the whole way through he was hitting, and when that happens it carries more weight than some run of the mill gun bar artist. What's important to consider is, Ice basically never forgets his shit. I can't remember the last time that's happened. And he was still retrieving a lot of it. Tournament just ups the difficulty for having everything down pat. That all said it's good to see Xcel killing it right now. He has always stood out to me as far as being much more creative and thorough in his bar construction. For example, elder buried would be generic, except he extended the play with immune to his bullshit, and a lot of battle rappers don't go that extra step in continuity because they're impatient. I remember Xcel struggling with performances earlier in his careers, it's great to see his battles going this well now. Good battle.
I agree about Ice being a reliably prepared. Whatever criticisms I have about most of his bars being average in this particular battle -- he's usually done better in recent years, to be fair -- I always give him his props for being ready to rap. He, Goodz, Hollow, Big Kannon and Young Kannon come to mind as the battle rappers with the best records of non-choking. And I hope I didn't just jinx it cuz we don't need ANY mo... Jersey. 🤣
Damn, I came in thinking X was gonna mop Ice, but I actually had Ice edging it before the choke; had ice got his shit off the way he was supposed to, probably would have took it. It happens to the best though man, look what happened to The Saurus.
I’m at the top of the 2nd, and I gotta say, Head ICE must’ve paid people to post comments about how cold, pun intended, his bars were in this battle. I got nothing against him, so no hate, but I CAN’T be the only person who feels that way. I just don’t get what all the praise is about here. 🤷🏽♂️ Xcel’s Wolf of Wall Street line in Round 1 was better than anything ICE said in that entire round. Now at the 9 min, 30 sec mark, and ICE’s 2nd is NICE so far though. So again, no hate. Continuing to watch...
I remember there was a part where ICE chocks and then there is a police siren outside that makes him rap a cool verse about it or something like that, I can't find it for some reason
Xcell should really drop his catch phrase that he says at the end of each round. It sounds like he’s saying his battle felt extra long and drawn out cuz it was boring.
ICE lost with or without the the choke. Thats the first time I've ever seen him choke in like 900 battles but i could be wrong. Xcel was always sick AF but you can tell now that he finally feels fully confident in his approach and unique style to battling so his overall delivery Aura and bars come across even better and he's been spitting some his best shot on top of that. Wanna see Xcel vs. Revers Live at the next big bay event
Never not watching an ICE battle 🤷🏻♂️
Facts
Respect that Ice is still out here battling though. Win or lose he's a legend

That choke was uncomfortable, felt like I was choking.
For real, I can't remember the last time I felt this sad for someone when they did that.
The clocks run out , times up, over BLAOW!
Shit made me want to buy my grandpa some prevagen
No lie, Xcel been wiggin for years. Crazy lines.. Super underated
That's what I'm sayin bro. I been fuckin wit Xcel since his battle wit daytyt. Dudes bars is always mad crazy. He was choking for a little bit a couple years ago but still nasty
@@OfficialAmputatedStumps Defs.. His writing is really up there.. Think he rushes through alot of material tho
@@theplugcpt5205 yeah I feel you, he be fumbling sometimes lol
Bruh, how is Xcel still so underrated this guy is slick with it
Said no one ever lol 🤣
He's not underrated. Everyone know his pen is up there.
Dope battle. Every time I I hear Ice battle I say “this nigga be spitting”.
Xcel made that look too easy. Congrats to him. Congrats to the crowd for not putting pressure on Ice when he had some difficulty in his third round. Congrats to KOTD for this event and all that you did and is still doing for the culture.
With that choke ice still won that’s how I feel he had both rounds. What y’all think?

My grandpappy went to school with ice in harlem he said it was rough back then and a coca cola only cost a nickel
Back when it actually had cocaine in it lol
Did this nigga ICE just say I smacc the wind out you and catch ya breath !!! 😳😳😳
The best bar of the year if you ask me.. so simple but so dope
That shit was crazy!
Fire
🔥🆚🔥 gotta give the "W" to Head I.C.E. 👍🏼💯✌🏼
Even with that massive 3rd round choke?
I dunno how you could do that.
He couldn’t he just a super fan
ICE looking more like Trick Daddy every day!
😂😂😂😂

Ice 🧊 was better. Xcel no presence under pressure
I agree smh people bugging
@@hocjimmybonez94 I'm glad it's not just me.
@@JeffTheGent some are trolls for sure, the others actually believe he one. 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Ice payed off the comment section he had boring out dated material and choked in the third
This feels like a homie battle lol
I remember there was a part where ICE chocks and then there is a police siren outside that makes him rap a cool verse about it or something like that, I can't find it for some reason
That man said "I had to leave my elderberry 'cause I'm immune to bullsh*t" Wow!
Xcel got that
Ice 2-1 if X had did round 3 first would've been a different vibe
The ice melted a long time ago
Ice a legend. I'm willing to go Draw. 1-1 after first 2 rounds. And what he was able to rap alone was good enough to match Excel's last round.
That jacket ice rockin 🔥
Xcell should really drop his catch phrase that he says at the end of each round.
It sounds like he’s saying his battle felt extra long and drawn out cuz it was boring.
Only head ice could get away with talking shit to Poison Pen
that man would have a heart attack throwing a punch, shit anyone with legs can walk away from him if he mad.
Damn KOTD the audio/video sync is off by some 10s of milliseconds.
Confirmed on 3 different devices.
GIVING ))) THE BUMPY JOHNSON HAHAHAHA
I got I.C.E 2-1 1st nd 2nd. Xcel went in his bag on the 3rd.
