Holy shit idk why this battle doesn't have a million views. These dudes are both dope as fuck, but this was truly Knamelis' best battle, an absolutely flawless performance. Can't stop watching his 3rd over and over.
knamelisplaylist dude thats fucking straight crazy lmao.. email me bro id like to run something by you and get your opinion if possible please james.willis896@gmail.com. You been the man since way back before the hype.
I stil revisit this battles sometimes. For background, Kid Twist was one of the best from the original Canada league and not many people took Knamelis serious back then. He took that personal and came back with a vengeance this battle.
He's been dope for a long time, he just needed an opponent like twist on an event like this to truly show his skills. he became top tier because of this battle.
Tᴴᴱ Tᴱᴺᴬᴄᴉᴏᴜṡ One Actually, if you ever have a chance to watch Knamelis' older battles in KOTD, you'll see his name was originally Knameless. So it was a reference to his old rap name too! Fun rap factoid! :D
I wasn't going to watch this because it doesn't have many views. Probably one of the better battles I've seen. I'm really impressed by Kid Twist, I came here mainly because of his battle with shuffle t, but I had seen some other classic ishst from him before. This was dope.
I think Twist took this. Watched it three times and I still think he took it. Knamelis was good but I still think twist was stronger. Better flips and stronger punches. Much respect KOTD
its good to see two battle rappers have respect for each other like that, to me it makes the battle better, twist was beaten but his punchlines were so good.
I think this battle is very debatable. Both of their second rounds were kinda weak, but I gotta say, I appreciate Kid Twist trying to update/evolve his style. He was definitely a lot more lyrical, which he can TOTALLY pull off. But like he said, delivery needs some work.
I think Knamelis just became my favorite Canadian battle rapper. He took every round, outperformed Twist badly, just came off mean as hell with the delivery and the flow. He won this battle on his MC skills and I really love when that happens. The big difference here was Twist came to battle, Knamelis came for blood.
awesome battle and a great atmosphere between these guys. Knamelis improved a lot and Kid Twist is also dope as always. looking forward to see more battles of them.
Round 1 : Knamelis Round 2 : Debatable, gave it to Kid Twist Round 3 : Knamelis Knamelis 3-0. He had better bars, insults, punchlines and he overpowered Twist. Twist wasn't bad, but I say Knamelis took this.
I think this is the first battle I have ever watched where I just can't pick a winner. It was constant back and forth. Both of them put on a hell of a battle and had crazy flips and freestyles. So I pick a Tie. haha
that's not true at all in anyway..there's been many battle rappers that promote there albums and lose, Example..Bender vs Illmaculate...so where you getting this info from? who told you this?
Wow, GREAT battle! BOTH emcees came SUPA NICE wit' that shit! Real talk, I thought Knamelis deserved dat. His delivery was fearsome, he had very consistent lines and his personals were supa nice! Kid Twist came nice too and I like how he switched up his style a bit; he seems like he's gotten a bit more swagged out. Unfortunately, he stumbled a couple times and I thought a couple of his lines just didn't hit quite as hard as he intended, but MUCHO PROPS to both yo!
knamelis in this is has probably the best verses in KOTD iv ever heard, everything just sounded spot on, well thought out, great delivery, just every bar was hard hitting, iv watched this battle back now a few times for that reason
"I'm animated, you're laminated. You're the blandest flavour while I'm candy painted like cars tippin' on atlanta pavement. You just don't have the stamina to stand with Knamelis. Think you're a beast? I'm a panoramic frame of angry animals in cages." HOLY FUCK
Kid Twist's legacy was mostly established in WRC 07, when he single-handedly had The Saurus/Illmaculate on the ropes. After that he's just been getting drowned out by the over-the-top theatrics of guys with louder speaking voices who just shout in people's faces trying to intimidate them.
These guys are actually show good sportsmanship. It's cool when people get personal, but it's annoying when rappers try to act tough and make excuses for losing.
"Phuc" is a Vietnamese last name, and many Vietnamese women come to Canada and the United States to work as nannies. There are agencies specifically devoted to bringing them here for that reason.
used to think 3-0 Knamelis. But definitely 2-1 knamelis. Kid Twist took that 2nd. Knamelis 3rd is fucking crazzzzzyyyyy. Kid Twist took the second tho those rebuttals were hilarious.

Tarsi liked it, too.
Still fireeeee
Took him how many years to come up with that? Dude was eyeing his phone the next battle.
@@JamesWright-yw4lv shut up
Still stupid fire 🔥
wooo that boy Knamelis goin IN
Knamelis' third round is one of the greatest rounds in battle rap history.
The ender was amazing, but battle rap history? Not even one of the greatest rounds on kotd. And that’s as someone who loves that 3rd round.
It really is because it's letting out the years of bullshit he got buries under by kid twist
No, it isn't
@@abdirahmandama3266 it was seven years ago
I'm here mad years later to say you right
Top tier drops quick how's that for a fucking plot twist.
Absolute Murder
Most underrated battle on kotd
Agreed
Holy shit idk why this battle doesn't have a million views. These dudes are both dope as fuck, but this was truly Knamelis' best battle, an absolutely flawless performance. Can't stop watching his 3rd over and over.
Steven Smith - I love you.
totally agree, i come back to this every couple of months since its release
knamelisplaylist Is this knamelis himself? Or are you just a fan?
it is indeed I - the knamelis. I don't think I have any fans that devoted....

Never
"You should have stuck to judging, 'cause I'll give him the justice this judge dreads/ judge dredd"
dope slept on line.
10 years later and this battle is still great.
I stil revisit this battles sometimes.
For background, Kid Twist was one of the best from the original Canada league and not many people took Knamelis serious back then.
He took that personal and came back with a vengeance this battle.
Top tier drops quick. How's that for a plot, Twist?
That was amazing!!
Classic KOTD Battle 💯💯💯
This one aged well. I need some wine.
ONE OF THE BEST BATTLES IN A LONG TIME!! Props to Twist & Knamelis for being 2 of the best battlers today!
Knamelis spits his shit so vicious
Top tier drops quick how’s that for a plot twist. Damn that’s one of the nicest closers I’ve ever heard.
If sex was operation you'd win every fucking time
KOTD needs to go back to having the rappers battle in the crowd. It just give is that rap battle feel, ya know?
"You make love to bitches I hate fuck..."
I paused the video so I could set my computer on fire. for me that was the end of the internet... I'm out.
+Maximusious #battlerap
I actually just met the dude today in Toronto. Super chill, down to earth guy. I've been watching him since the WRC days, so believe me, I know!
Damn this shit is hella dope, Knamelis stepped his shit up
He's been dope for a long time, he just needed an opponent like twist on an event like this to truly show his skills. he became top tier because of this battle.
This battle was a classic. Twist is one of my favorite battlers but Knamelis killed him in this one!
Daaamn, it's 2015 and only now do I know of Knamelis. This dude's a beast
Your rap name is Knamelis *claps* AUTOMATIC WIN
Tᴴᴱ Tᴱᴺᴬᴄᴉᴏᴜṡ One
Obviously, you didn't get the joke here.
Tᴴᴱ Tᴱᴺᴬᴄᴉᴏᴜṡ One
"Your rap name is Knamelis" meaning that in rap, his name is "nameless". Get it?
Tᴴᴱ Tᴱᴺᴬᴄᴉᴏᴜṡ One

This was dope.
Knamelis is dope
He was amazing in this battle...fire!
I think Twist took this. Watched it three times and I still think he took it. Knamelis was good but I still think twist was stronger. Better flips and stronger punches. Much respect KOTD
I love how whenever Knamelis is rapping, Kid Twist is stone cold somewhere else in rebuttal neverland.
didnt realize how amazing this event was even while watching live
Knamelis vs Iron Solomon
+David Harvey really?
+David Harvey that would be pretty ill
8:18 "You just know, there's no chance of you seeing Knamelis..." Kid Twist looks up right at him lol
Do a kid twist vs porich rematch for memories.
That would be a bodybag for twist though
Damn, Knamelis went harder than i expected.. He stepped up his game.
im in love with that girl next to lush.
its good to see two battle rappers have respect for each other like that, to me it makes the battle better, twist was beaten but his punchlines were so good.
Knamelis spazzed on twist
@ 6:10 who is that pretty lady?
I think this battle is very debatable. Both of their second rounds were kinda weak, but I gotta say, I appreciate Kid Twist trying to update/evolve his style. He was definitely a lot more lyrical, which he can TOTALLY pull off. But like he said, delivery needs some work.

The big difference here was Twist came to battle, Knamelis came for blood.
this is the single most replayable battle ive ever watched and my favorite performance by a battler ever. no one touches knamelis.
"this is peter pan, youre throwing hooks that never-land" reallly dope
awesome battle and a great atmosphere between these guys. Knamelis improved a lot and Kid Twist is also dope as always. looking forward to see more battles of them.
The greatest thing about it is that its a "once in a lifetime" thing, he had never brought it to that level before and i dont think he ever will again
One of the best battles on KOTD
Wow, this was a dope battle. Can't believe I barely saw this today...
Round 1 : Knamelis
Round 2 : Debatable, gave it to Kid Twist
Round 3 : Knamelis
Knamelis 3-0. He had better bars, insults, punchlines and he overpowered Twist. Twist wasn't bad, but I say Knamelis took this.
Knamelis 2-1 sorry
Could someone explain what a flip is? I'm new here..
Who is the girl beside Epic Mealtime??
@DCStatus are you in a car commercial?
"I haven't seen that season yet" *bahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha*
"I haven't seen that season yet..." lol
Who's the girl next to Lush One? I kept ignoring Kid Twist because of her.
THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE TITLE MATCH!
This battle should have a million views. Twist and knamlis is this battle we’re untouchable. They are both the perfect package. Rip bender!
Ay - good meeting you homey!
Knamelis got that Clark Kent hair going.
whos the girl standing next to lush one?
they should add a "vs" in the video tags, cause if you search kid twist vs knamelis, this vid doest show up
That "old money" line was nice
Twist: "And got killed in a blood bath like Dexters wife."
Knamelis: "I haven't seen that season yet, you ruined it."
excellent match-making.
SET IT UP ORGANIK.
both went in. Twist with the wit but Knamelis's bars far more agressive and cut deeper
Knamelis was on it for this one! Kid Twist is one of my favourite battlers and came hard but Knamelis edged it on this one!
this battle has INSANE replay value
Knamelis vs. Soul Khan would be such a ridiculously crazy battle
8:47 Knaless tries to promote his cd....has anyone heard it?
TRuSTNO1 yes. I have.
www.mxmcx.com
+knamelisplaylist lmfao
+TRuSTNO1 Yea it kinda sucks.
TheBourneBlogger sorry you didn't enjoy it. Critical reception was pretty hot TBH
if its like his rap battles i wouldnt give it a chance...plus the whole marty mcfly approach to me sounds fkn retarded.
Great battle! Although Knamelis shouldn't be so cocky after each round, this wasn't a bodybag.
I love Breaking Bad references!!!
Knamelis killed it by the way..
"if sex was operation you would win every time" AWESOME
I think this is the first battle I have ever watched where I just can't pick a winner. It was constant back and forth. Both of them put on a hell of a battle and had crazy flips and freestyles. So I pick a Tie. haha
Is that Harley in the back? From epicmealtime?!
@STRIFEblaZe exactly, This is his best battle yet and hes frontin' like hes been battling like this since the beginning of time
Whoa, DNA's "Something, Something" line was dope as hell.
name?
that's not true at all in anyway..there's been many battle rappers that promote there albums and lose, Example..Bender vs Illmaculate...so where you getting this info from? who told you this?
did that dude die it the begining talking about that girl?
im still walking around with my pinkys out in honour of this.
Wow, GREAT battle! BOTH emcees came SUPA NICE wit' that shit! Real talk, I thought Knamelis deserved dat. His delivery was fearsome, he had very consistent lines and his personals were supa nice! Kid Twist came nice too and I like how he switched up his style a bit; he seems like he's gotten a bit more swagged out. Unfortunately, he stumbled a couple times and I thought a couple of his lines just didn't hit quite as hard as he intended, but MUCHO PROPS to both yo!
Again...This is a battle with worth watching over and over! Knameless went in for the kill, i could see him n Dizaster being a good match!
Great battle! Who is the beautiful woman next to Lush?

HOLY FUCK
Oh man, yes, that was dope, I'm surprised that line didn't go over well with a Toronto crowd. Kid Twist has been slept on since his debut, imo.
Kid Twist's legacy was mostly established in WRC 07, when he single-handedly had The Saurus/Illmaculate on the ropes. After that he's just been getting drowned out by the over-the-top theatrics of guys with louder speaking voices who just shout in people's faces trying to intimidate them.
so what round did twist win?
best battle yet this whole event
i didn't get that "Soul Khan/ Tanya O" line.
can someone please explain to me what knamelis said at 4:53, "my hair will win...... that got a crowd reaction.
Big ups to KOTD
@taajiir123 anyone know her name?
love "I have not seen that season yet!"
Hey guys how often do they post new battles?
"Guaranteed Phuc like a foreign nanny" - if you got that line, consider yourself smart.
These guys are actually show good sportsmanship. It's cool when people get personal, but it's annoying when rappers try to act tough and make excuses for losing.
Classic
"Phuc" is a Vietnamese last name, and many Vietnamese women come to Canada and the United States to work as nannies. There are agencies specifically devoted to bringing them here for that reason.
Everyone's a winner because we have witnessed this battle.
used to think 3-0 Knamelis. But definitely 2-1 knamelis. Kid Twist took that 2nd. Knamelis 3rd is fucking crazzzzzyyyyy. Kid Twist took the second tho those rebuttals were hilarious.
This was just a clean ass battle, great all around.
that battle was crazy as fuckkkk man crazy rebuttals and freestyle shit
one of my favourite battles for sure. kotd
