KOTD - Rap Battle - Aye Verb vs The Saurus |

[@TheReelRapNerd]

"Seasoned with the beef, grab the pepper and assault shit" Verb is wigginggggggggg

[@Louie200Seven]

Im back watching this.This has so much replay value

[@SmokeStack-yk3kz]

Peace king word penmanship on point, delivery excellent! This is my 4th time revisiting it👌

[@ishmaellang6121]

i never would have thought this would be a classic. this is the best battle ive seen in a long time. not a gun line festival, but real rap battle. we need to bring this form of battle rap back

[@krakboston4659]

S/O KOTD for accepting and welcoming any rapper every rapper from different leagues. Thats really for the culture Diverse talent

[@jmike1122]

Short timed battle but really good. They respect each other so they brought a bit of the best out of each other for this one. The fans win.

[@ellerysweet3158]

Saurus is one of the only battle rappers who actually respects opponents lines and doesnt just stand there with a douchebag angry face rolling his eyes at every line lmao, respect to him

[@A.N.Suldan]

Now that Verb announced his retirement,I hope people appreciate how great he is.

[@VxonaXra]

yo verb material was fucking fire

[@jakeduff-rickards7692]

thesaurus is the only rapper who likes hearing a cold bar from opponent's more than spitting one

[@jvonthecat]

verbs track in the beginning was crazy tho ahaha

[@kenfreeman1027]

this verb .. this is the verb that's on my mount rushmore .

[@theempoleon78]

Why is this Verb not the Verb we always see? Because this Verb is a Verb that Verb can't provide very often. Once in a blue moon type shit. The Saurus came in and beat him at his own game and I don't even like The Saurus.

[@tjriordan]

Thank you, Verb, for actually RAPPING

[@homeskoolmc1852]

In the PPV Saurus took (I timed it) 7 seconds of silence and "hold on" before he even took that phone out. Just in case anyone's trying to say it wasn't a true choke.

[@100proofjuice2]

Homeskool MC Homeskool MC wowwww!!!! word fool lookin out for that important info... tryin to protect battlers and shit... I swear that shit madd corny... and I had thesaurus winning that battle but what round did he choked in my g... I'm lightweight pissed at this ducking battle now...

[@jib7180]

Hahaha 7 seconds still isn't a big choke and it was before he even begun his round, not one slip up throughout the round either.

[@skyywalker5590]

13:06 - Those Mazda 6 bars were hilarious!! 😂😂

[@maneuverdifferent81]

The legend Aye Verb

[@jcba2228]

I ride up!! in any whip you can imagine that's not a Mazda 6 😂😂😂💀💀💀

[@OttleyInkTV]

"Now every Aye Verb opponent picks the same way to approach him. But I feel like channeling Showtime would just be Shameless promotion." 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@PineNut15]

This is 1 of my favorite battles i watched 6x times now so good

[@jackblue3403]

yo to be honest.. one thing that i feel aye verb keeps alive is the actually " Rapping" aspect of this sport.. He isnt battle talking... he isnt just rhyming his words and setting up punches. He there is a flow, cadence, delivery and he has an objective to his rounds.. In his first round he set up the fact that he is someone that is on a higher level than thesaurus in all of these aspects.. however the casual fan just looks for the punches... not the overall message. I think we need to keep the idea of actually rapping alive in this sport.. otherwise its is spoken word.. Not rap.

[@gregorymack4516]

Jack Blue I feel you on that forreal verb do be rapping👍

[@theempoleon78]

The Saurus demonstrated that he's better at being Aye Verb than Aye Verb.

[@dmik6919]

This is that throwback Verb that I've been waiting for

I ride up! In any car you can imagine that's not a Mazda 6

[@albonthegoat]

The Verb song in the intro kinda bangs.

[@UnfilteredTruth1]

Verb was looking like his old self. Good battle from both vets Verb 2-1 though

[@FlawdaBoy4]

Verb make those words dance for real

[@BGriff-]

More Aye Verb on KOTD where he can actually rap.

[@moeali5130]

B. Griff he retires in May 2017

[@BGriff-]

Moe Ali What? I hope he has nothing but great performances. When Aye Verb is On...he's unstoppable.

[@cheyoumen]

"A Mazda 6?" lol!

[@KazzyOfficial]

Great fuckin battle from both sides. No drama no bullshit just straight bars, what the good ol battles used to be like

[@JayStaice45]

Kazzy Official both of them showing respect and digging each other's bars as well. Love it

[@TheRealest127]

I wish Verb would've rapped like this against K Shine. I hate K Shine. Verb is INCREDIBLE. 🔥

[@IIMUCH52]

Same here! I always look at the battle like when lighting struck and buster douglas got the W against Tyson. Everyone knows Verb is on an elite level and way above someone like a kshine. What people don't know/remember is: tyson actually knocked buster down and the ref fck'ed up the count and he was on the floor like for 11 seconds, tyson was burning from the clap that night (he caught earlier that week in tokyo), tyson did not training for the fight, tysons corner didn't even have all the tools that night...they really just thought he KO him in the 1st rd and go home. Not making excuses, just facts and buster did what he had to do and won. Verb vs shine: of course all of harlem was there to boo verb no matter what he said, k started the ruckus when smack tried to calm down the crowd, verb was clowning and didn't take shine seriously (almost can't blame him), then ironically like 2 weeks later Verb/Hitman 3-0'ed k & dna at a 2 on 2.

[@Prince-sw2yf]

KINGSEANFAME yes i thought shine wouldve been a walk in the park for verb

[@hutch13pbbc]

january 2019. this match should happen every 3-4 years. this deserves 2 - 5 million views. this is writing. this is bars. this is rap.

[@reckyoself9615]

KOTD has the nicest crowds ever 😂😂😂

[@michaeldagod]

Yeah, they're so nice they'll even tolerate The Saurus blatantly looking at his phone and straight up admitting "I forgot my first word."

[@coyotemoon722]

Man how does The Saurus keep crankin out these classics...Man's a freakin workaholic

[@itsjusthammy]

Respect for the straight too the battle!!! That was 🔥🔥🔥

[@jwinston1995]

Jesus this battle is actually great

[@redcrumb5590]

Man do I love the un skippable ads that play after every other bar.

[@vinny5638]

Intro track wasn't bad. Shouts out to Aye verb for that.

[@Cyzure]

It's a shame this doesn't have at least half a million views. Two legends. A classic, this is probably the battle I rewatch the most from either of them 2. It's short, to the point and very competitive 2-1 either way.

[@Yearofthedog7]

This battle was mad close, both these guys are legends👌

[@FOUR2NINE2011]

Dope battle from 2 undeniable legends.. Salute!!

[@ChekItOrWrekIt]

The Mazda 6 bars are too hilarious! 😂😂

First battle I've watched all the way through in 2017.

[@100proofjuice2]

Tony yeah I bet the shit was 16 mins equals short ass rounds!!!! smfh!

[@Londonguy1987_]

Great to see Saurus still killing it. I need that Solomon rematch, though.......... mazda 6 scheme was funny as fuck

[@cerebralxlns5042]

Instant classic. I haven't seen two emcees come off like this in a while. Both were dope as F, and I honestly feel they both won lol.

[@juanapplecock1106]

Kotd Videos are as long as Smack Intros these days. That being said this has good replay value, and this is how battles should be imo. Both artists came with it, the crowd had reactions but wasn't gassing the battle or dead/silent. I just can't believe this is 16 mins. (In a good way) Also thank you Kotd for the dope visuals!!

[@sircaliber1]

Never seen a battle rap gas his opponent more than the saurus

[@crimsonchinnychinchins3954]

Goddamn, Verb rhyming like crazy. Fam is great to listen to when he's focused.

[@cooliereddz4141]

That eatin in bunker line was 🔥 🔥

[@mychalpryor2473]

Ayeverb rounds were 🔥 🔥

[@OrthodoxHC]

I can't believe I'm watching this battle for a first time now. The fans won. Verb had three fire rounds with a lyrical masterpiece. The Saurus mixed up his rounds with dope freestyles, a little bit of jokes, and some hard punchlines. I don't feel like giving a win or loss to either of them. Amazing battle!

So we just going to act like Verb ain't kill that beat 3-0 in the intro snippet?

[@CLSicks]

That first round was fire! !!!!!!!!! I'm enjoying these legends. Props

[@BST4321]

Comments are crazy. I felt like this was an awesome performance by Verb. He was 2-0 going into the third and almost had it but Saurus took that round. 2-1 Verb.

[@PGO_Gaming]

Thesaurus' jokes took away from his round in the 3rd. 3-0 Verb. People complaining about Verb's pen in this battle need to watch the battle again.

[@BST4321]

Black Bull they both had comedy in the third. TheSaurus didn't perform bad, had a slip up but Verb was really great especially in this not-so-big venue. The third rd imo was the only debatable rd.

[@jwill5033]

This the format battles should be in. Short rounds straight to the point

[@ggrant1763]

Aye Verb rounds seemed kinda short but he showed up for this one. 2-1 Verb.

[@guiceice]

FIRE battle! Both dudes killed it no doubt.

[@YaBoiJern757]

verb 2-1

[@RudyRudacious]

This is an example of when culture clashes in battle rap work… I always revisit this battle from time to time and it is still as good as the last time!

[@KatalistProductionsKozzySasha]

Verb is the man when he tries. The Saurus killed that 3rd round and Verb killed that second round, dope battle

[@deezeeyak7983]

5:59 that guys voice cracking fukkin killed me outta nowhere lmfao

[@robbbyyy25]

Verb showed up finally!! And then Saurus fucked up lol....Great battle nonetheless, love Bunker battles

[@PhiloInfinitum]

One of the battles of the year so far.

[@michaeltersigni1661]

[@ace_Knows]

Bigg up to both these fellas for puttin on a show for us, and respecting each other and the culture. We got 30'ed.

[@papagrande7448]

If you say we got 3-0ed that implies that we lost, meaning the battle sucked. I think you mean we won 3-0

[@LukeNitestalker]

Dope battle. Fuck who won or lost, it's just dope to see these two spitters go for it.

that's how legends do!!

The first battle I've seen in about six years that I'd call a pure tie. Both fellas did great! Shouts to Aye Verb on the retirement announcement. Good luck in your future endeavors. Thank you for the body of work you've created in one of the most memorable eras of the game.

[@iamhby]

In the building this was decent (I'm glad I finally got to see a good Verb performance live after his Caustic and Illmac battles), but it's actually a pretty solid sparring session on camera. I personally had Saurus edging it 2-1, with Saurus taking the 1st and 3rd, while Verb took the 2nd (although I could see how someone could give Verb the 1st, he was really good there). Looking forward to watching this a bunch again and again, especially since it's only about 15 minutes long. Salute to KOTD, Avocado and J-Pro for making this happen at the best venue in all of battle rap!
