This was good for the battle rap soul
"Yes indeed it was, and I am truly a rap soul. "
Can we get them VS Shuffle and Marlo pls
@@mattschmidgall2473 this has to happen, but money is on these guys man. Just too creative and emceeing skills
💯💯💯
Imagine being so good at battle rap you're rebuttaling compliments
"Unless it's a robbery" was so fast, absolutely ridiculous
@@adarrmFvxkn Krazi
A wards vs chef was 🔥🔥
MY FAV so fat. But this one is fire.... and O seen these two on HBO Scribblefest before battle rap.was mainstream. Beautiful to see their friendship continue to grow @Eddiefacts
this makes me so happy to see. Illmac's third round when he mentioned wrc's, their battle, etc and ended it all from the saurus' perspective was genius.
Shit was beautiful.
That's why he's one of the 🐐's
the most inventive thing ive seen in a battle ever
I hate that these are on barstool. No one there had any clue what was going on
So cold an angle
The way that this pays homage to true battle fans can't be overstated. This is a thing to appreciate and cherish. Monumental and legendary. Thank you guys so much!
Facts
Yeah, probably the greatest compliment battle ever lmao. Both of their writing approaches to this were incredible 🤧🔥
I don't want to watch another compliment battle again 😂
I was about to type this. Lots of compliment battles feel like they run out of actual compliments to give the opponent, so they just start saying how they'd turn gay for them or something lol. This one felt genuine in its approach, and the writing was insane. 10/10
Literally the best compliment battle ever
@@absent72award vs trez was crazy
Thank you fr. Had 20 yrs to pull frm. When its real u can tell
Illmacs writing is on another level he really makes you hang onto every word. Every round is like a seamless story, it's honestly insane.
Thank u man. Try to push the limit of my pen each time out
Poison Pen's presence was much needed and appreciated for this historic moment 🔥🔥
That just solidifies how legendary it is even further.
@@PikaShockedEmote Tell me you're not a seasoned battle rap fan, without telling me you're not a seasoned battle rap fan.
This is so understated. P needed in battle rap period.
fact
All that was missing is Lush
wish pat could’ve lived to see this
Me too fr. LLPS GPWW
He would have been going ballistic watching this. Two of his favorite battlers, as well biggest influences, battling in his favorite format?
😭😭😭😭😭😭
God Bless the dead- RIP big Pat
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯 RIP PAT STAY
This was ABSOLUTELY NEEDED from someone who's been watching 15+ years. Two legends RE-KILLING IT. Crazy...Love these guys. Legends.
Thank you Rone! you are missed in Battlerap, but in glad youre still involved. love these events🙌🔥🔥
This can bring a whole new audience
This should have a million views.
It's insane it hasn't gone viral
As a longtime battle rap fan, this is awesome to see 2 of the greatest battlers of all time, and the team that created the winning formula for 2 on 2 battles, did a compliment battle, let’s go!
Im so old this made me teary eyed because i watched them run through the WRCs while i was depressed. That shit saved me.
✊
I always come back to battle rap when I'm feeling low lol
🫡
Same. Felt crazy but I knew I’d see comments like this. So real
Glad I wasn’t the only 1
I smiled from ear to ear this whole battle… Salute to 2 legends💯
Absolutely phenomenal battle
You been on here yet ?
Danny you should do one too
Danny you're top 5! You beat Diz & you beat Pat (RIP) clear in a classic... absolute legend.
@@OLiSaNofficial His compliment battle with Head Ice just dropped
Maybe rewatch it, study a bit, and one day you can fix your horrible setups
This battle was INSANE. Haven't enjoyed a battle this much in YEARS
🫡
This is now my favorite battle of all time...
😂😂😂 standards low asf .
...glad u enjoyed it though
"Studying Thesaurus so long now our names are synonymous" the craziest shit about that line is only Illmac was able to say it... that was fuckin dope.. salute yall both 🫡🫡
It's top 1 name flip of Saurus foreal.
Thesaurus and Illmac, I watched you guys as a teenager tuning into scribblejam and wrc’s. Saw your genre-defining grind time battle a bit later. Checked out your battles in kotd through medical school, and ended watching illmac’s recent tear under a table on a night shift at 4am, in a hospital on the other side of the world. There’s loads like me. That bar hit us all clean. Your talents have traveled farther than you’ll ever know
This seems format was made for this battle to happen, beautiful, shit's nostalgic seeing Illmac and Thesaurus together on stage. Them vs Shufflo needs to happen finally for battle rap to be complete.
I’ll protect him at all costs like a Mexican Mob Boss
😂😂😂🔥🔥🔥🔥
from WRCs to now, this was incredible. s/o Rone for bookin this, and s/o Saurus + Illmac 🙏🏽
🫡
“Shower him with praise”
Bruh did that KILL anyone else ??
💀🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
My 2 GOATs for real... This was a blessing to watch.
Facts 💯
Legendary.. Illmac is insane. Thesaurus has taught hundreds of people how to string multi's together.
So dope to see these dudes still crushing it 20 years later.
GOATS! This was really dope! Shoutout to everyone involved! Oh my god illmac's third!!! WOOOO!!
I saw a comment about the Chelsea music hall....and now I see why. As a battle rap fan since scribble jam and a former battler, I appreciate this and you both immensely. Both 3rd rds made me teary eyed. Just beautifully done and the chemistry will always be unmatched. Thank you
I’ve been to a ton of events and this might be the most fun I’ve had watching a battle live. Both of them were incredible and that 3rd round was legendary as fuck.
Man I watched these legends grow into their greatness, back to Scribble Jam and when they were on a tear and winning chips. I say that cause I'm sitting here thinking how remarkable it is to finally see it come full circle. To others this battle may not have any sense of significance but to me, this one was for the history books, this was momenumental, this was for the culture. Cheers to those who can understand and appreciate the scope, context and magnitude of the body of work this iconic duo.
"I studied thesaurus so long, now our names are synonymous". I'm dead. 2 GOATS. Great battle.
I keep rewatching the "Question: True or false" line to see if it's actually a freestyle or if they gave Organik the word before the battle. It's absolutely ridiculous how well Pete and Greg work together, you'd think they had a corpus callosum fusing their brains together.
Organik's reaction make me think it was freestyle but I still have no idea because they're legitimately that good 😂
I think that whole section was rehearsed. Lowkey I feel like even the rebuttals were rehearsed in other rounds, because thesaurus knew all of illmac's rounds by heart. You can see him mouthing the words while illmac is spitting
That's the only part I don't like about this battle. I guess it's fine since it's a compliment battle, but it loses some authenticity for me
@@absent72 no, it's definitely freestyle they are just that expert level. You can tell how they slightly stumble but you have to pay attention to notice
@@absent72plenty of decent battle rappers can predict their opponent's punchlines if the setup isn't too unorthodox. If he knew Illmac's rounds because it was completely rehearsed why would he want to telegraph it by mouthing the words?
15k views? Bro if you know the history of battle rap you know that this is probably one of the most legendary things to ever happen in battle rap salute to y’all man
We gonna need that illmac vs silkh by the end of the year!
How these two continue to deliver at this level is something really inspiring. Beyond anything we could have hoped for in this format
I'm so glad to be here. I remember watching them battle everybody in 2009. They battled each other in 2011, I think. Here we are now. Such a good day to be a battle rap supporter. We all won 6-0. This lived up to the hype!
People be sleeping on this compliment battles on God these joints so hilarious 😂
Glad to see barstool involved in the battle rap rone is super humble dude for this, could be a whole new level
Insane. Thanks Rone for putting this together. Great to see the legends share a stage again :)
One of the best battles I've watched in recent times, compliment or otherwise 🔥
🫡
“Wonder twins, activate!” I’m in tears bro that was too funny 😂
🗣️Easily one of the "NICEST" battles I've seen this year... 💯💪🏾🔥
Broo this battle was more of a history lesson on how two pioneers set the standard for battle rap
By far the best compliment battle yet!!! Their chemistry and pen is unmatched. Thank you to everyone involved for putting this together and as always LLPS
I love seeing the growth of both these guys. And it’s truely a special day to be a battle rap fan to witness such greatness!
I would’ve died if Saurus just started dogging on Sikh too lmao
Lmao
that would’ve been amazing lmao 😂
Didn’t even think about this definitely would’ve been funny as fuck lol
This was beautiful to see ❤ you can see the friendship is real and authentic
This battle gave me Pete's dimples.
There has been a lot of Battle rappers come and go over the years but to this day and forever the chemistry these guys had together has never been seen or matched. They are both legends of the art and they gave us viewers and fans so much over the years. Much respect to both. Bars were incredible.
Appreciate i Jinx. Thanks for holdin us down all this time 🫡
This my battle of the year
I watched these guys in the WRCs. That third round was beautiful.
appreciate u og
Haha made my day. I actually first saw you on the Scribblejam DVDs I bought in 08. "You look like insert actors name here" still one of my favourite lines. Watching your progress through the years has been a great ride.
This might be the best compliment battle I’ve ever watched 🔥🔥 “we’ve always complimented each other perfectly” FACTS
More of this, Barstool. It’s this and your One Bite reviews. Keep it coming.
The nostalgia as I’m watching these 2 take the stage together is incredible, I remember their battles against hom/piff syanide/majesty like it was yesterday. They’re truly the founding fathers of modern day battle rap and their performances in the WRC’s put this form of art on the map. From the jump off days, scribble jams, grind time, and KOTD, thank you Pete and Greg for all the great memories, iconic footage, and overall contributions to this sport I’ve grown to love over the years, LEGENDS!!!
Thank u for watching all this time. Means a lot 🙏
@@illmacTV it means a lot that you read the comments, I appreciate the response and keep up the hard work, you deserve everything that comes your way.
They clashed at Spin the Mic,
Once again at BOTB5
& Now a Compliment Battle for the closer of the series 💪🙏💯
This duo are what got me into battle rap damn near 20 years ago. I was smiling ear to ear the entire time. Shout out to Rone for putting this together
"Wonder twins activate" 🤣🤣
I'm incapable of not comparing every compliment battle to Rone V Pat Stay, but this was legit, for a bunch of different reasons. This was so awesome to watch.
Most complete event ever!!! Hats off to everyone involved!
BATTLE OF THE YEAR. IMO
From 2 of the Greatest Legends in Battle Rap.
Give these Guys there FLOWERS...
This is epic
Thankyou Ilmac and Thesaurus;
You will not be Forgotten.
Salute
Appreciate u Mike. Im glad it happened and came out how it did. Salute Rone for making it come to fruition.
@@illmacTV Agreed. Salute to Rone
I'm super late to getting to this but I'm glad I waited until I could really take it in and I have to say... It's been almost 20 years I've been rocking with these two and they are still as insanely sharp as day one. I cant tell you how many times me my cousin has seen or taken the chance to show off the WRC06/07 back then so I know he's gonna flip out. We'll probably do a live reaction. Hard not to get emotional here but all hands high for these two legends.
Thesaurus and Illmac will forever be in my top 5, I got into battle rap because of them. I remember like yesterday when yourube first came out and watching these guys shredd everyone. Yall are the goats fr! 🫡❤️
🫡 real one
@illmacTV Nothing but respect bro 🙏 man them 2v2's back in the day smh
Cool seeing these guys on a Nicest battle. Remember Scribble Jam, WRC. hell even yahoo chats lol. This dope, good shit to these two.
Life long battle fan here since the old school. This is one for the books. Legendary history. All smiles. Well done.
This battle was POWERFUL. Wow yo now I gotta run back they classics
20:57 I wish I had seen their battle before watching this, that line foreshadowing is so dope
My favorite battle of all time. Outstanding.
🙏
No way this shouldnt have over a million views this battle was perfect in every way
My dawg 🙌
I've now watched this 4 or 5 times, I remember being 15 or 16 when back in Portugal we had our underground national groove and everything outside was trash, mainstream, etc, and one of my best friends showed me this thing called battle rap, The Saurus vs whoever because it was just the Saurus over and over cooking people.
Flash forward (I don't want to count) years later I'm tripping on this, much love to everyone involved, battle rap living it's best era yet I feel🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰💪💪
This is probably one of the best battles of all time.
Had a bad day & this battle cheered it up..battle rap has done that for me for years but the overall energy & history involved with these 2 made it the best compliment battle ever
Ay man, thats what makes this shit meaningful bro. Thank u for the inspiration fr
@@illmacTV Appreciate you Illmac 💪 you been holding down the fresh coast for years. Salute & God bless you
I started watching battle rap regularly in 2004 thanks to Ilmac's Scribble run.
That means that I've been entertained by Illmac and Saurus for twenty years now and this is the best gift I could ever get.
Thank you so much, Illmac, Saurus and everyone who made this moment possible. I literally have tears on my eyes.
Man, I almost got emotional mid battle, esp after Saurus’ 3rd. Love to Rone for making it happen fr
That was the most wholesome shit I've seen in my life
This makes me mad happy
As a battle rap fan for 15-20 years. This is the greatest duo ever. Check the resume
CmonnNnn
I always wanted them to rematch since Grind time was so long ago. But this was so much better.
This is everything I hoped it would be! Just perfect. Absolutely the greatest duo to do it.
Yooo! Didn’t know how much I needed this 👏🔥
More flowers button >>>>>
Man this was so dope
This video should have way more views
Best compliment battle to date.
Stoked to see Ill go at it against Real Sikh!
Amazing battle.
Getting dissed in a compliment battle is crazy work 😂
the fact that these two delivered on this…. legend status obviously
I have been waiting for this one. 2 Legends in this shit. It's dope to have Barstool sticking their toe in the water of battle rap
this is legit one of the best things I’ve ever seen
That means a lot Cam 🫶
WOW. I am so grateful to all the people involved that made this happen.
Legendary performances, the GOAT duo no question.
Wow, this is the kindest one i have ever seen
I love seeing the community come together and show love, fire battle 🔥💕
That's what it's all about !!! Relationships and bonds between brothers and sisters , confidence builders !!❤❤❤❤
What's funny is the first battle I ever watched on yt was these two, pretty sure I had to watch three videos just to finish one battle
THIS IS THE BEST LOVE THESE TWO
This was hilarious and crazy to me, I first started watching rap battles back in like 2007 and it was tag team rap battles where Illmatic and Thesaurus dominated and embarrassed everybody
Illmac*- that means a lot homie
Bruh that “this is about me from thesaurus perspective” hit me like a kick in balls. Bruh ill’s ability to do that is absolutely uncanny. Shit flipped me upside down. Then the studying thesaurus so long were synonymous now?! Their history is why it hit so hard!
Sm of my favorite battle shit i wrote, appreciate it
Simply amazing. Historic in so many ways and a perfect display of battle rap mastery. Love and respect Saurus & Illmac ✌
This community is like no other. Only the ones that have followed this can understand what’s really happening here.
LEGENDARY! Especially that ending. Wow two goats
woop so hyped to finally get to see these ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 mad l8ve and respect for making them available 🙌
That was amazing, probably the best compliment battle I've ever seen
