Freestyle Battle Thread

[AbsurdNY]

Post up some of your favorite freestyle battles.

For those who do not know, I will tell you some things about battle circuits.
I used to love Scribble Jam. I really wish they still had it. I like Grind Time Now a lot too but Scribble Jam was a freestyle battle composition with a beat. Grind Time Now is without a beat.

Grind Time Now is a international freestyle battle circuit with different coast leagues.

Some legends include:

Mac Lethal
Thesaurus
Eyedea (rip)
Passwurdz
Okwerds
Dirtbag Dan
E Ness
Hollow Da Don
Iron Solomon
Real Deal
NoCanDo
Dizaster
T-Rex
Illamculate


Here is one of my favorite Grind Time Now battles.

Geoff had to be joking. Had to be lol.

Yeah to be honest I didn't even know he had passed. That was months ago too. My internet got shut off around last August though so I haven't been able to keep up with it and I don't watch tv or anything. I never knew though. What's Abilities doing now?

[Brandoncb7]

This isn't so much of a battle but still freestyle and screwing with each other here ad there. Still two of my favorite rappers though. A good example of why Eyedea is the shit.
