KOTD - Rap Battle - Illmaculate vs Bigg K |

[@Welyn]

I keep coming back to this battle. I think it perfectly showacases what a battle should be like... Bars, jokes, personals, flows... It's all here

[@camvick407]

Welyn couldn't agree more.. come back to this often, this battle is fire !!

[@YaBoiJern757]

Welyn facts bro me too

[@TheJohnCooper]

also the best rebuttal of all time with the Roseanne Barr line

[@BUY_CRO_BEFORE_1DOLLAR]

Honestly it’s a classic. This battle made me a fan of both of them.

Facts!

[@MrCrampton94]

"Salute when you see me, tell em' to let them horns blow/ This is my second coming, my forthcoming was foretold/ This is his corpse cold on the floor, blood on the wall, swinging a sword slow through the torso of his torn soul/ My hands reach out from the abyss, remove the ground under his kicks/ His soul lifts from the ground up and it drifts, in a cloud covered in mist/ He shouts, clutching his fists but feels his mouth covered or stitched, he's now stuck in a glitch where sound doesn't exist/ ....this is fucking battle rap at its finest solute

[@beanut.putter]

that's not real shit.

[@andytimes100]

mcneumz Neither is the shit that any battle rapper says you dumb fuck. They wont really do anything they say in their sets. Dumbfuck.

[@logankennefic]

This almost seems harder just reading it than hearing it performed

[@papamidnite1305]

I agree, that was some dope rap. In battle rap, however, it doesn't really belong. You're supposed to diss your opponent and lines like that won't even leave a scratch. andytimes100 You're the dumb fuck. What he meant by real is most likely real battle rap. He never said that any of the shit people say they'll do to their opponent in this game they'll actually do. Bigg K spit real shit while Illmac try to impress people with his rap. Not saying Illmac isn't sick, but learn the difference between battle rap and rap before you make another bitch ass statement, fucking dickrider.

[@taajiir123]

That shit was beyond corny and definitely doesn't belong in a rap battle maybe on a track or sum shit. Bigg 2-1

[@jcsmooth70]

[@nocoastljared598]

[@SicTransitArdua]

This troopers in training, salute It ain't the music, the fame, or the views Don't claim the rules of the game, you'll lose Use it to train, as fuel for the flame that grew Review the tapes, do what I say to do And watch the moves that you make improve See K, I can step my game up while doing the same for you! Salute when you see me Tell em to let them horns blow This is my second coming, my forthcoming was foretold This is his corpse cold on the floor, blood on the wall Swingin a sword slow through the torso of his torn soul My hands reach out from the abyss Remove the ground from under his kicks His soul lifts from the ground up and it drifts into cloud cover and mist He shouts, clenching a fist Feels his mouth covered in stitch He's now stuck in the glitch, where sound doesn't exist He can see though that he's marked for death That revelation made him reload Even though our bars reflect the scene with Neo and the architect We are connected like DARPA net I'll fly a charter jet into your thought bubble and park it directly in front of the verse you're about to start with next This is plastic army men to nuclear armaments Every dollar spent on defense in the heart project Each bar, an armored mech, alarm detection Armed and set to target threats Each word, a sharpened edge, scar his flesh, Carving through his heart's contents until my heart's content Rewind it first, instead of threatening you're gonna die in verses I reverse it, they're paying me NOT to kill you Let your mind interpret As soon as that contract was signed in cursive, your whole life was purchased Rewind it further, Before you lost this battle to a vet Before you saw Organic in the flesh yelling "Rapper to my left.." I accepted this match up as a matter of respect So you should feel honored when I decapitate your neck Blood splashing on the steps and the cracks in the cement until the avenue is wet But wait, that's when you snap out of it Wake up drowning in the sweat Grabbin at your chest, gasping for a breath You look around you, but instead of a casket, it's your bed Then you realize we haven't battled yet This all happened in your head Just imagine what's gonna happen at the actual event TIME

[@ryanrobbins2032]

@@lilsleepy3332 it has nothing to do with the matrix. He was referring to the battle K did right before this match, where K forgot his verse and told his opponent "go ahead".

[@Itsadoubleentendre]

World Rap Championships about 10 years ago. Illmac and Thesaurus teamed up and won both tournaments.

[@mr.thunder1219]

+Jeff Holleger World Rap Championships. illmaculate was like one of the youngest to ever win. I think him and the saurus won twice as a team, not entirely sure about the results of their individual efforts. it's crazy when you see how ill mac was when he was like 17 murdering fools and he's only gotten better over time.

[@joarddelagarza5779]

Real fans of this culture realize how tough Mac can actually be if he is on his A game. His third is one of the best third rounds out... if you a real fan of lyricism then u get it.. the ways Mac structured that round was whoo.... like, covered in stitch where it remains in a glitch where sound doesn't exist.

I want to see pat stay vs bigg k go down at some point

[@JonWixx]

I think thatd be cool but I don't think Pat would do it. Pat comfortable were he lay at. And only really takes on ppl he thinks he's got a leg up on. Don't get me wrong I like Pat Stay, awesome performer but he ain't bout that match up. It'd be Bigg K at LEAST 2-1 in that match up.

what a classic battle.. it's sad so many fans get caught up in declaring a "winner" when in most good battles it strictly comes down to style preference. this is two elite battlers giving you flawless performances, people who prefer illmac's style will lean towards him, those who relate more with K will think he won. there's no right answer, so instead of senselessly arguing just appreciate the world class talent you get to watch for free.

It's a shame to me that the URL crowd doesn't respect Illmac's ability. He's truly one of the best to ever do it, but they just don't respect the intricacies of his writing. It's so much more complex and impressive to me than what most of these dude's come with. And that's no hate to Bigg K, I'm a big fan of him.

[@leodee3]

anthonyindiana563 Haha, no, he's actually very good. What he does is way more impressive than anything you see at URL. His writing is way more impressive and intricate. But y'all just wanna hear dumbass basic puns and shit.

[@roumanobr]

U do realize this was 100% a KOTD crowd yea? Bigg K killed him. Illmac is like 0-4 against ''gangsta'' mcs. Conceited killed dat ass, Hollow DD killed that ass, Arsonal RIP'd him and now Bigg K. Lets not lie to urself.

[@leodee3]

Poo-P Wong I'm not talking about the crowd at the event, I'm talking about the comments. It's all a matter of opinion, and I'm not about to argue it, but there's no doubt that what Illmac does is harder to do than most of these cats. True creative writing ability vs corny forced word play and puns.

[@leodee3]

anthonyindiana563 I would quote you the whole third round, but it's too much to type. That was true great creative writing. Amazing imagery and nice concept. But probably too much to comprehend for the short attention span gun bar crowd who need a corny punchline every 2 bars to maintain their attention.

Bigg K’s break out performance is what keeps bring me back. Even in 2022 this could be battle of the year. Still holds up.

[@KuyaQuatro]

2023 and this battle still dummy fire. But new viewers might not know that this was the return of illmac after a long break. So for him to go up against Bigg K who was on the steady rise at the time, some expected illmac to stumble and not keep up. But with that legendary scheme he put together he showed the world that we were witnessing a new era of an even deadlier illmac

One of the best 3rd rds of all time. Illmac

Best battle of 2013. There hasn't been one better so far and there won't be one after. What a classic.

[@jimparker2126]

Is this some kind of fight? I mean, like boxing? Or is it something else?

[@seanofthezo]

It's a rap battle, which is basically two men acappella rapping at one another for three rounds. Really fun stuff.

Wait until you see that Rum Nitty vs Danny Myers battle KOTD is dropping the footage on december 27th I bet you'll change your mind about that comment

[@JUSTINC15201]

Exactly why nobody comes prepared for kotd. An amazing battle like this with under 400 thousand views in over a year.

[@SimpluhFly]

***** Yeah but nobody cares about KOTD this battle was a classic tho

[@ItsaColdWorld10]

White on white crime at its best. Both Mac and Bigg bodied. Classic!

[@Ariez___]

This battle was simply entertaining from start to finish and the real clear winner was the fans kotd continues to deliver great content shoutouts to both emcess illmac def impressed did not know he was that articulate and witty and bigg Ks aggression and bars are always dope def my vote for battle of the year

[@yardman9452]

So many sick bars in this battle but the stuck in a glitch/sound doesn't exist bar was some different shit.

[@jasonclement3000]

I come back here for illmac's 3rd just to find poetic inspiration
