Scribble Jam 99 semifinals and finals

[@mymistake6130]

Eminem (on RapGenius) sent me here.

[@FightScienceAa82]

My Mistake what do you mean? Did he mention this in an interview?

[@MisterDayTiMe]

@Su Yeon Lim how do the lyrics to the 8 mile battle explain anything?

[@nmckinlay]

Ditto

[@satysal1]

Marshall Mathers sent me here

[@HenryFlamez]

How?

[@cwaldacwaldovic4572]

This Peace and Dose One battle is one of the most entertaining things i've seen in a while :-)

[@sourdeeznuts]

EYEDEA was 17 years old when he won this battle....I've been watching him for like 8 years and I never even knew that!!!! makes him even more impressive. Eyedea and MC Juice are the 2 best freestyles ever. RIP Eyedea.

[@superdopehiphop]

“Off the top head freestylers” juice one of illest written freestyler too.

[@DrGonzo403]

RIP good sir. You will be missed and unfortunately never got the props you deserved while you walked the earth. they shall come and we all shall remember you. It's a sad day for those of us whom your thoughts and words have touched. My new baby boy will hear your music years from now and I'll tell him how you helped change the way people think and respect music. Not much else I can say. Take care wherever you are and we'll all see you again in time, my friend.

[@StefanBorglducky]

I'd only seen other short clips from this Scribble Jam (Slug and Dose-ONE and maybe someone else in those ones), this is the first time I got to see Eyedea's rise through this. The MC battles from Scribble Jam 2000 and 2001 was a lot more available when I got into this at the time... Anyway, loved this video. Also, knowing how much Eyedea respected PEACE, what an awesome match-up. They both KILT MURDID and BURID it btw, especially from today's standards

[@RyanGiggsOBE]

2:34 the irony is that eyedea turned down a contract for Puff so he could still make his kind of music

[@Vibekilla]

Yep!!

[@illuminaticake4528]

that's good fortune

[@creationskenn3225]

To the people who doesn't know, Em wasn't here, 'twas Eyedea, Peace, Dose, and Otherwize

[@MysteryTransistor]

I see myself filming, good times that year!

[@cliquezion6302]

You got any footage that was previously unseen? For example Adeem's battle

[@MysteryTransistor]

i might. i will have to check out the archives. so much tape to go through. Some tapes were lost too.

[@cliquezion6302]

+Bomb Hanks alright thanks, I desperately want to see the battle between Unseen & Adeem. It just baffles me how Unseen could take him out

[@koolsanthony623]

+Bomb Hanks yes we want to see please!

[@adolftrump3989]

Clique Zion it’s been 2 years and he hasn’t posted anything it remains a mystery how adeem lost to unseen

[@SaidUno]

I million thank yous! It's so different from the video version. I definitely prefer this. Amazing Eyedea had to battle two consecutive Project Blowed veterans

[@JesusJesseAguinaga]

classic battle. Shout out to both freestyle legends. Eyedea is amazing and can't be served only matched. Otherwize my personal favorite freestyle MC.

[@SurgeCess]

peace vs dose one, its like two auctioneer's going at it LOL

[@roastlonely]

P.E.A.C.E. really took DOSE to school. DOSE is dope all the same

[@iOpacity]

The first time I'm ever seen the timekeeper in dreads smile. Good going PEACE.

[@mutedmakequiet]

:O that was you videotaping from the other side lololol. cool shit. i remember the reactions of the crowed. some girl in front of you with color hair too. awesome.

[@I2i0I2D4N]

Slug sittin' there watchin' his boy Eyedea do his thing. That's good shit.

[@matthewadams8583]

Just noticed that Otherwize and P.E.A.C.E. were dressed exactly the same lol. They look super similar too.

[@billma12345]

“You and peace are cute cause your little shirts are matching”

[@TheEquanimous1]

Eyedea vs Otherwize = Epic - It was almost as great as his battle with Technique.

[@dopelogik]

R.I.P.

[@JayBeeLNHbsides]

@ThomasRolinger People's Choice by Defari, production by Evidence. I think it was on Tommy Boy Black Label ~1998.

[@therealsegue185]

Battle rap is like comedy. Whoever can tell more jokes wins. Play the crowd.

[@bassbole]

As big as a dose fan as I am, every time he talks about this battle he says his heart wasn't in it because he was battling one of his idols... thats such horseshit. It's sport, competition, thats all. Dude should just admit he got outplayed.

[@Shamanistic420]

That's Kevin Beacham I am pretty sure.

[@ArsiniMusic]

Good looking out for Eyedea, RollingStone. ;)

[@EekABlunt]

sick upload!

[@MichaelLeroi]

peace looks so weireded out by dose lol

[@BasementKilling]

good quality dude

[@KSCdd]

eyedea is sooo sick

[@JayBeeLNHbsides]

@cmg1603 Defari - People's Choice. Evidence beat.. 12" was on Tommy Boy Black Label.

[@shaolinkin]

Ah, I wish someone had the video of sole's battles.

[@LegendarySpartan117]

@I2i0I2D4N Do you mean dose one? on the right?

[@DanielFlailed]

1:52 inspiration for Moral of the Story by Watsky?

[@sourdeeznuts]

EYEDEA WAS 17 YEARS OLD WHEN HE WON THIS! it would be amazing if he won in his 20s like most of these cats but even MORE amazing that he was a 17 year old

[@t5s]

Illmaculate won 2004 at 16 years old. Kid was mental off the top

[@wazza831]

@@t5s illmac was 18 not 16

[@t5s]

wazza actually he was 17 tbh he was younger than Eyedea. youngest to ever win scribble.

[@wazza831]

@@t5s eyedea was 17 too XD

[@ThomasRolinger]

Hate to be "that guy" and I'm not sure if it's been answered, but what's the name of the first beat in this video? Thanks.

[@cmg1603]

what the hell is the beat with eyedea vs otherwize?? I need to know or i'll die, please don't let me die

[@toomuchtv5768]

eminem was adorable here

[@HenryFlamez]

Lmfaoo it wasn't him... You're fucking lost man... It was Eyedea. At that time (1999) Eminem was in mainstream... He was already working with Dre.

[@jabbarcks]

You could probably see yourself in the other videos of this like from that guy in the back

[@ratesfully]

whats the second beat?

[@RobbanZ]

full clip - gang starr

[@jbird3]

whats the last beat?

[@JayBeeLNHbsides]

@jbird3 East Flatbush Project - Tried By 12. Came out ~96

[@jbird3]

@JayBeeLNHbsides thanks man

[@CLUTCHxPixeL]

What's the last beat

[@RobbanZ]

tried by 12 - east flatbush project

[@MadInc.]

1997 actually

[@Emi212]

@galloe I know, right? He's just bobbing his head along. XD

[@metalgearsolidsnake6978]

the 5.00 battle is a big joke.. hahaa

[@bahionic]

like the simple beat

[@thirdshift47]

P.E.A.C.E. and SUPERNAT---the illest battlers of all time. Fuck what ya heard.

[@RyanGiggsOBE]

Eyedea beat PEACE twice so i would say Eyedea and Supernatural and the best

[@thirdshift47]

RyanGiggsOBE I'm not talking technical skill--which P has in droves--but rather the ability to turn a mundane battle (where most cats rely on punchlines) into a full scale performance. P.E.A.C.E. and Supernat do that unlike any battle emcees that I've ever witnessed. Infact,P is flat-out one of the greatest rap performers to ever clutch a mic.Period. By the way,in the battles that I observed,in wasn't like Eyedea just waxed P and had better verses.Eyedea just didn't fuck up in any of his rounds.

[@osw7241]

thirdshift47 And the ability to "don't fuck up" isn't a skill in a rap battle?

[@thirdshift47]

Potter Farmer Flawlessness is the ultimate barometer of skill,which is just one of the reasons I believe Supernat to be the greatest battler in history. And in a battle where two emcees are equally matched,it probably becomes an even more important factor. And yet clean verses alone can also be deceitful,because I've seen too many battles where you can tell the emcee is using writtens. Personally,I'll always take a flawed verse that's genuinely improvised and creative over one that's preconceived or cliche. Not saying that Eyedea fits that description.

[@thirdshift47]

RyanGiggsOBE When did Eyedea defeat P.E.A.C.E. a second time?

[@BasementKilling]

This is 1999

[@cqpygs3840]

Eyedea didn’t win this battle...

[@animalkrackers]

siiick

[@sloanlove1994]

the white guy is fcking awesome, who is he?

[@uncleclem7381]

Sloan Love Eyedea or Dose One

[@bladestormX]

Gotta say, Eyedea did better than Otherwize

[@DenisKapic]

Doseone definitely should've won and gone against eyedea

[@CompLexYo]

@jbird3 lol who doesn't know that beat? not dissing you just saying, EVERYONE has used that beat.

[@Ganbertuli]

are you sure this is 1999 and not 2000??

[@t5s]

Yes this is 99. 2000 brother ali came with it ducking hard and beat eyedea out then sage francis mopped shit up. Sage vs eyedea in 2000 shoulda and woulda been fucking epic

[@grimmmm]

Eyeda won for sure hahahaha

[@andrewcutler1380]

Have to say, the white dude is better.

[@nareshbodapati1500]

[@sloanlove1994]

"OtherWize" got his a** handed to him

[@Eelud33]

What the Fuck.................

[@cmg1603]

@TheEquanimous1 technique is a good lyricist but he can't freestyle that well

[@emaricarter4885]

Eyedea

[@DiagramOfTruth]

PEACE isnt even on beat. meh

[@astrusofficial]

Bunch of 14 year olds gonna be mad at the fact that Otherwize beat eminem at the rap olympics

[@almightyrapaholik1736]

[@bayleemclachlan-more7712]

TechAffinity close, but i'm 16 ;)

[@koolsanthony623]

+Rusty_ link?

[@kyleeaton2717]

Astrus so Eminem lost to Otherwize and Otherwize lost to Eyedea. I believe it.

[@metalgearsolidsnake6978]

peace vs dose one.... more like clowns dancing....

[@sourdeeznuts]

project blowed crew is wack off the head (peace and otherwise display it here)

[@x5HaWk5x]
