Making historical moments effortlessly DJ Premier is just at premier level it's good that in this era this battle between him and RZA showed that you can make quality music that stand the test of time. Plus give a little back story to certain songs. What a moment. #ThisIsHipHop 👊🏿✊🏿
That battle was like seeing a great friend after years have gone by and you’ll pick it up like you just seen each other 2 days ago. I can’t put a price on how good the battle felt. Amazing
It was dope to hear Preem shout-out ppl tuning in to history....Still gives me chills watching and hearing everything go down.. salute to Rza Dj Premier and Hip-hop...
Well Said!! Both Dope & in my top 3 Along with Pete Rock..I can even squeeze Havoc in there. I always loved Pete & Premo Witty Scratching & samples of other Emcees in their tracks
Someone posted on Facebook that they likened the battle to watching Paint dry. He chose the wrong hill to die on cause he got demolished. HIP-HOP lives!!!! Thank You Preem and RZA for bringing us together. Made my quarantine a little better
@Domo Jonescome on son, you can't forget DJ Muggs!! He's been on fire since day one and still burning with his recent collab albums...Eto, Meyhem, Mach hommy etc...
Honestly, this was one of the battles that I KNEW, going in, there wouldn't be a clear winner. It wasn't like the other beat battles. That's not the point when you have mufuckin THE RZA AND DJ PREMIER. They have so many hits, many they didn't even have time to showcase in the battle. You know who won? THE CULTURE. WE DID!!! Thank you for blessing us
This wasn't a battle Hip Hop won Saturday night both showed respect it was nothing but love, fans of each other this wasn't even a battle n they surpassed any battle by far none can come close too that!!
Y'all NY niggas act like Manny fresh timbo etc are not Legends. In the south fresh is God tier to us. Just like slim thug said you from were im from fresh won. I love preme and rza but y'all NY bias the reason why NY not in top anymore. To many wanna be kings and not enough love being spread. We all pump the same blood of 400,000 slaves who came here over a 400 year period.
RZA FREESTYLED HIS BATTLE PART.. PREEMO HAD A LIST OF 20 TO USE... RZA WAS JUST LIKE.. YO JUST LET ME KNOW WHAT NUMBER WE ON.. HE WASNT EVEN KEEPIN TRACK OF WHICH ONES HE PLAYED.. RZA GOT HUNDREDS OF CLASSIC AND DIDNT EVEN USE SOME OF HIS HEATERS
Heather said she was about to put her Timbs on with her pjs 😂 Hell, I did put my Timbs, Carhartt jacket and army fatigue cargos on! I was totally rockin out! I know my wife thought I was buggin 😅
What a moment in my life. Quarantined at home and everyone got on a Skype party to watch this whole thing together. Even a girlfriend from middle school back in the 90’s got on to reminisce with us! It’s one of those things where people will ask “where were you when?” #hiphop
#Goosebumps 🙏🏾👑 This Battle was #Momentoftruth in Hip Hop History. Even when Premo left „Full Clip, Mass Appeal etc “ and Rza left „Triumph, The Hood etc.“, they Catalogs craaazy as Hell. These two GOATS gave Hip Hop so much and i‘m really Thankful grow up by their Sounds. Shoutoutfrom #Germany 🇩🇪
Def Hip Hop History Sway!. especially during this time. . The Gods made it happen!. That shit was banging yo! word life. .. & that was golden history they was dropping during the battle. . no doubt
Salute to the RZA & Premo for taking us away from our harsh reality for a few hrs with timeless, classic HIP HOP!! I really appreciated that , & to the world we got the “Skillz” to defeat this bcuz “we ain’t nothing to fuck with”✌🏿✌🏿
WATCHED THE WHOLE BATTLE , AFTER RZA GOT HIS AUDIO FIXED IT WAS ULTIMATE... RZA WON IN MY OPINION... PREEMO GOT SUPA CLASSICS BUT RZA TRULY IS THE ABBOT
Thank you RZA and Premo. It was so nostalgic for me. All of my people where on IG love rockin wit the world! I bare witness to one of the dopest moments in hip hop!
Shoutout to Premo, your favorite dj's favorite dj. Shoutout to Mack Sway always on townbizness, and Shoutout to the Ruler Zig Zag Zig Allah, for takin' it back to the essence.💪🏾👍🏾✌🏾
My favorite moments from this Great Hip Hop moment.. Preemo dropping Above The Clouds using Wu-Tang’s Inspectah Deck!! 🔥 and when RZA dropped Wu Tang Clan Ain’t Nothin to Fuck Wit .. w/his kids in the background. #wutangisforthechildren 🔥
Preem and Rza set an impossible bar. I honestly cant imagine ANYone being able to top that. Any battle that follows just will not be able to compete with that. That was a once in a lifetime moment and we are all extremely blessed to have witnessed it as it was happening.
Great night for hip hop!! But Preem, how did you not drop arguably your BEST beat ever, Supa Star by Group Home? Preem could've dropped All City's The Actual, Fat Joe's Shit is Real remix, Gangstarr's Take It Personal, Words I Manifest, Discipline, Work, Ex Girl to Next Girl, etc. But RZA could've dropped Winter Warz and Stand Up, so they both left some classics on the table. But it was still an epic night and salute to Premier and RZA!!!!
With all the unfortunate CAOS of the covid-19 goin on , when the fortunate true hip hop fans that made it through gets asked what helped us through this tryin time we get to say we got to witness true legends of the game give us a hip hop outlet to cope with this tragic time in life , with that said - Good looks & Thank you to ; TIMBALAND , SWIZZBEATS , SCOTT STORCH , MANNIE FRESH , NEYO , JOHNTA WHITE , LIL JON , T-PAIN & LAST BUT CERTAINLY NOT LEAST PREMIER & RZA - all of these DJs/producers have already cemented their names & music in the history of hip hop but you now have all showed your humbleness & love & mutual respect for one another & the culture ! 💯 ALL LOVE ❤ , RESPECT✊🏽 & BLESSINGS 🙏🏽 TO ALL Y'ALL & YOUR LOVED ONES - the culture won & HIP HOP IS THE CURE 🎧🎧🎼🎼🎵🎵🎶🎶🎹🎹🎤🎤🎛🎛🎚🎚📀💿🎙🎙🎙

My #1 beat of all time.
@@thescribe3184 Indeed🔥🔥🔥🔥
The crazy thing is Preem didn't even play half of the joints from Jeru's platter. Like he had Me Or The Papes in the bag, just waiting!

Preemo is a national treasure, he needs to be protected at all cost
WATCHED THE WHOLE BATTLE , AFTER RZA GOT HIS AUDIO FIXED IT WAS ULTIMATE... RZA WON IN MY OPINION... PREEMO GOT SUPA CLASSICS BUT RZA TRULY IS THE ABBOT
Facts. Hes movement is live non other. Rza hand down 4 the win
Rza
Havoc
P. Rock
Premier
Evil d
The hardest round to Judge was Ice Cream vs Unbelievable!!! Great and Monumental
Street Loyalty Entertainment naw
Verbal intercourse vs Nas is like
Think it was round 11
All I Need vs 10 Crack Commandments was hard to judge as well as Shimmy Shimmy Ya vs Kick in the Door.
Too many classics
I had a feeling he was saving that song for Icecream
For me incarcerated scarfaces vs boom, that’s such a difficult decision for me
💪🏾💯✊🏾 RESPECT ⚔️ HONOR !!!
Listened to the battle from start till the end - loved every second.. thank you Hip Hop. Peace and Love
the story telling in between was the best part
Thank you RZA and Premo. It was so nostalgic for me. All of my people where on IG love rockin wit the world! I bare witness to one of the dopest moments in hip hop!

This is the true nature of hip hop displaying your craft. #CLASSIC
My favorite moments from this Great Hip Hop moment.. Preemo dropping Above The Clouds using Wu-Tang’s Inspectah Deck!! 🔥 and when RZA dropped Wu Tang Clan Ain’t Nothin to Fuck Wit .. w/his kids in the background. #wutangisforthechildren 🔥
This ment the world to me.was the soundtrack to my life and got to do a 3 way FaceTime while watching.so glad I caught it felt like i was their.
That was such a great battle! Made my weekend. I❤️hiphop
87-97 Hip Hop is greatest decade in music PERIOD!!!! RZA and Premo are 1 and 2 in my book I prefer to say tie
88-98... Reason Being Is 98 Was Better Than 87... 98 One Of The Best Years Ever
Heat Rock 410 98 eh. Your probably younger
1987
Public Enemy Yo Bum Rush the Show,
BDP- Criminal Minded
Eric B and Rakim - Paid and Full
I'm 40 Bruh... Those Albums R Classics... But It Wasn't Enough... 98 Had Too Much... Google 98 Albums Then Come Back To This
This Battle between GODZILLA vs KING KONG of HIP HOP was a MILESTONE!!!!!!!!
That was so great!
That "battle" was beautiful.
The battle was one for the ages dope next up Dr.dre vs DJ quik
Preem and Rza set an impossible bar. I honestly cant imagine ANYone being able to top that. Any battle that follows just will not be able to compete with that. That was a once in a lifetime moment and we are all extremely blessed to have witnessed it as it was happening.
The battle was awesome! Very educational :)
Thanks
These grandmaster DJ's are responsible for my teenage years
Thanks again for your awesome contributions to the culture
2 of my favorites growing up.
Premier always with the dope stories 👊🏼
Sway a real hip hop icon. Appreciate you big dog.
This should be taken to the stage..
Two venues with giant screen links.
CAN YOU SAY SOLD OUT
LEGENDARY Battle 🔥🔥🔥
Surprised he didn't play Full Clip. Another one that I wanted but I had a feeling he wouldn't play is All For Tha Ca$h.

4 am in Portugal my headphones we're about to explode when Primo dropped those bangers
Each pic in the video looks like Sway got superpowers sending shockwaves through his finger. He lighting Primo up 😂
Jeru is like an ace up your sleeve!!!
What a moment for hip hop!!!✊✊
When will Sway interview Rza
That battle is yet Hip Hop flexing it's divine God powers yet again on the planet.
Best time of my life no lie 90s boom bap

We need a J Dilla vs. Pete Rock battle. 😎
Eh! Sway u are man I like your show from Congo Kinshasa (Africa)
Its time for a producer tournament
Yo this battle will go down in hip hop history

NOW LETS COMPLETE THE CYCLE, PETE ROCK VS Q-TIP!!!!

Where was "FULL CLIP" ? GURU Smashed that LAVA BEAT by PREMO!
That kool g rap and MOP would have done it . Super classic
💥💥💥💯
Damn I missed the whole thing, I saw a short clip. But damn. I Wonder If premo played "who got gunz". Premo always making magic with mop
Tero Tanskala it’s on UA-cam
I wanted to hear Winter Warz by Ghost face and Supa Star by Group Home!! It would’ve been Lit!..🔥
That shit was dope as fuck!

This was the best thing for hip hop in years. Preemo needs to write a hip hop story book.. Or do adoc series

Nah Preme’.. Thank you Sir... Your career is LEGENDARY 👑
its crazy RZA didnt play no killa amry ,no bobby digital , no AZ joint ,tragedy by rza list goes on for both of them
Yeah, I was disappointed he didn’t play to join with Ghostface & Charlie Baltimore, Stand Up or the 4th Chamber...
Some of those tracks Wu fans would appreciate but not a broader audience
Premo left out some heat also. That’s how large their catalogues are. Legends
Sons of man
I wish this was done via Zoom so we could see you guys expressions.
Hart was probably sending play lists
I think T.K. Kirkland
