ahhh man i totally agree with what twist said fresco edged that shit in 3. cmon now.. that whole line about twist his name around and its what he likes to eat?! so dope. but the OT went to twist. good battle
AYO I'll put the laser beam on your Maybelline, I'm a sniper aimin When I lift the HEAVY METAL you're gunna kiss the Iron Maiden Call me Maynard James Keenan when the burner murks you I'll pull the tool, leave a hole in you...a Perfect Circle. Kid Twist is crazy. People who think Fresco took this battle are slow...and I like Fresco...I'm just not an idiot...
thank you haha idk how this is even debatable ?!!! kinda make u think some if this is set up to make some rappers look better then other and to build up n market certain rappers more then others !!! never shoulda had an OT!!! just like pat stay vs arcane! i hate arcane but he beat pat !! just cuz they tryin to buil dup pat stay n but money into him they couldnt let im loose it was a set up
It was tight all the way through 3, but the analysis is obvious. Twist's flip on "Shamwow guy" gave him the edge ... then the constant barrage of 1st rate punchlines in OT put him over the top. No-brainer.
Kid Twist himself says that probably Fresco edged it in 3, but that he felt he took the OT. I can't argue with the man and props to him for being so objective. Kid Twist is one the few Canadian rappers I like (no homo), and Fresco always brings it.
Fresco was leading.. but the OT was necessary, Kid Twist did deserve it. And Twist KILLED it in the end.. so big ups to him. Wish they had double OT- that was really close. Fresco was consistent, but Twist had much harder hits.
dope battle Kid Twist is a monsta and his battles are always entertaining....Fresco be putting it down too.....both mc's did they thing....I need to see more battles like this.
This was the best battle i've seen in a while. Good to see the Fresh Coast respects concepts in verses. Not EVERY line needs to end in a punch. Both of these guys build up to punches in 3-4 bars(Fresco calling out Twist's college education/Twist's gunplay bars). Ridiculous battle. I don't care who won, honestly, but Twist has been getting jerked in battles he clearly won, so i'm glad to see he pulled this one out.
hahaha that gun rhyme shit from Kid Twist won it for me lol. that was fucking epic lol. but they both came sick. im just glad Kid Twist went home with at least one W. NIGEL PLEASE!!!
He was imitating a street rhymer and his was point was to say that standing next to Fresco, those street gun lines were believable. LOL Twist is a damn monster!! Look at how intense that fool looks before he spits his verse!
Wow this was definitely a hard battle to decide on. Fresco and Kid Twist are both really really good. I do think Kid Twist outdid Fresco though. Not to say Fresco is bad but KT is a step above. The flip with the Shamwow was so sick.
@silckon He's refering to the metal band Tool, thier singer is namned Maynard James Keenan and he is also the founder of another metal group called A perfect circle.
i watch kotd well b4 grind time n av 2 say both leaques are sick n this match was ill bt nice 2 see grind time judges not jerking the mc's n actuli givin it 2 the guy that genuinely won
Nigel please! Holy Shit, that was awesome. I enjoy Kid Twist's thought provoking flow and good natured manner. Fresco is pure talent but at times is too pompous, I appreciated his humility in the after interview. Also, he looks like my kid brother which may be why I don't like him.
@moneyindabank6 If you are talking about Fresco saying it he said "you had a brief scent as Canada's King of the Dot." As in he had the title in KOTD for a short time.
I don't know what the rules are like now, but back then, if a battle went into overtime, the decision was made SOLELY on the strength of the OT round. Kid Twist's OT was clearly better.
fresco's OT was bodybag ish... then twist cameback still, I think OT coulda gone either way, and this is one of the best battles I've ever seen, shit was classic. sooo many quotables. i think fresco edged it in 3 too...but coulda gone either way too, so regardless this was a really close battle and cant complain about the way it was called cus it was sooo close. ill battle forreal, props to both forreal
Closet battle I've seen on GT. I'm a Kid Twist fan, but I would have given this to Fresco. Could have gone either way though, so I'm not pissed about the outcome. Hip hop wins
Twist killed that, fresco's only good verse was his first one, and twist still got that one. I cant believe the hyroglyphic dude was all about Fresco after Twists line about them.
"I was pippeing teachers so they could give me an A while u were on the football field like give me an A" like fresco is so gooood love him😍😍😍😍👌
not gonna lie that "perfect circle" line from twist was Dope, i reacted like the crowd to that shit. lol
Fresco murdered twist what are these guys talking about ?
"Nigel please"
ahhh man i totally agree with what twist said
fresco edged that shit in 3. cmon now.. that whole line about twist his name around and its what he likes to eat?! so dope.
but the OT went to twist. good battle
This battle was sick. Props to Kid Twist doin it big for Canada.
Twist took the OT, damn the beginning of his round took it for me. Lol
The heavy metal bars were incredible.
I'm Tommy with a vest, your Billy the Blue Ranger +235
"you were on the football field like give me an A!"
That Tool/Perfect Circle line from Kid Twist was amazing as fuck.
Great battle, hard to call, peep what Twist says after the battle at 3:55, dude is a sportsman for that, props
"Nigel please" the whitenerd version of ""Nigga please"
Fukking amazing and hilarious
Yo these interviews are fire tho, we need this energy back.
Crazy battle I have hella respect for twist and fresco is a beast loved the fact it went to overtime much love and respect salute!
AYO I'll put the laser beam on your Maybelline, I'm a sniper aimin
When I lift the HEAVY METAL you're gunna kiss the Iron Maiden
Call me Maynard James Keenan when the burner murks you
I'll pull the tool, leave a hole in you...a Perfect Circle.
Kid Twist is crazy. People who think Fresco took this battle are slow...and I like Fresco...I'm just not an idiot...
Don Corleone wouldn't say slow just ignorant to other genres of music.
100%. Kid twist is insane.
This is only the OT lol. Fresco won everything before
Fresco 4-0'd Twist. It wasn't really close.
Ehh. It was pretty close. Twist is just a cornball. But the bars is all there.
Judges robbed Fresco ! he was 3-0 b4 OT !! twist won OT so it was 3-1 !! EASY!!!! NOT CLOSE !!!! 3-0 then like i said Twist won the OT that's it !!!
You hit the nail dead centre. I agree 100%
thank you haha idk how this is even debatable ?!!! kinda make u think some if this is set up to make some rappers look better then other and to build up n market certain rappers more then others !!! never shoulda had an OT!!! just like pat stay vs arcane! i hate arcane but he beat pat !! just cuz they tryin to buil dup pat stay n but money into him they couldnt let im loose it was a set up
yea I'd have to agree with tht too. Unless the judges there are afraid of some1... which is unlikey cuz Twist and Fresco aren't really... umm... hard
if a battle goes to ot the entire thing is judged only on the ot round
going to overtime was iffy but under those rules twist won easy
lanelafisking
ill agree 4 the sake of arguing ! but OT never shoulda been an option !!! imo anyway!
Nerds like Fresco and Kid Twist have some of the most creative gun lines we've heard in the last two years.
laser beam to your maybelline had me dyinnnnn
im addicted to that tool/perfect circle line.... and the way kid twist does it is awesome!
Niegel please!!!
Polar bear line gets me every time
man great battle......props to both.....shit was funny how Fresco took that hair product question so serious at the end......hah!!....
It was tight all the way through 3, but the analysis is obvious. Twist's flip on "Shamwow guy" gave him the edge ... then the constant barrage of 1st rate punchlines in OT put him over the top. No-brainer.
Kid Twist himself says that probably Fresco edged it in 3, but that he felt he took the OT. I can't argue with the man and props to him for being so objective. Kid Twist is one the few Canadian rappers I like (no homo), and Fresco always brings it.
twist was saving his bars for madness and still won, big ups to twist , only dude in 2 battles at the same event
am i the only one who had to rewatch this whole OT bc i cannot believe they both MURDERED it so bad given fresco was a verse w a rebuttal near the end
Fresco was leading.. but the OT was necessary, Kid Twist did deserve it. And Twist KILLED it in the end.. so big ups to him. Wish they had double OT- that was really close.
Fresco was consistent, but Twist had much harder hits.
Instant classic!
Fucking excellent battle, both beasts don't even matter who won!
dope battle Kid Twist is a monsta and his battles are always entertaining....Fresco be putting it down too.....both mc's did they thing....I need to see more battles like this.
When Fresco was quotin literary terms it reminded me of Mark Wahlburgs "Other Guys" thing where he learned how to do ballet ironicly.
Seriously wow this might be top 5 battles ever.
Hellllla cool of Twist to give the shoutout to Fresco's music at the end. Very cool dude. Big ups to both battlers
that was one of the best battle ive seen in a while i dont agree or disagree with the judgment i still cant decide who i think won
Fresco got the battle. KID TWIST GOT THAT OT
Kid Twist won, and he gets the record for best sportsmanship in Grind Time.
Classic Battle! That opening line from Twist is fucking classic!
Tool & A Perfect Circle!!
@blahtoausername No, Maynard James Keenan was in a band called Tool, he was also in another of his bands called A Perfect Circle.
the Tool and A Perfect Circle punchline motherfucking sick!!!!
yea twist had that flip shit was dope. man this was close. but def twist took it out. he was mad honest with his breakdown of the whole battle.
I thought KT might have a slight edge in 3, but Fresco took the OT pretty comfortably.
Close and dope battle.
This was the best battle i've seen in a while. Good to see the Fresh Coast respects concepts in verses. Not EVERY line needs to end in a punch.
Both of these guys build up to punches in 3-4 bars(Fresco calling out Twist's college education/Twist's gunplay bars). Ridiculous battle.
I don't care who won, honestly, but Twist has been getting jerked in battles he clearly won, so i'm glad to see he pulled this one out.
Fresco won in 3, Kid Twist is a funny and likeable guy, hiphop knowledge quiz's dont happen when black people battle, and this battle was great.
yooo this was a great battle kid twist came wit it
Both killed it!!!!
If there was ever a draw it was Jack vs Twist. Twist's first 3 bars took this.
hahaha that gun rhyme shit from Kid Twist won it for me lol. that was fucking epic lol. but they both came sick. im just glad Kid Twist went home with at least one W.
NIGEL PLEASE!!!
one of the best battles in GT
He was imitating a street rhymer and his was point was to say that standing next to Fresco, those street gun lines were believable. LOL Twist is a damn monster!! Look at how intense that fool looks before he spits his verse!
Twist's gunplay bars were hilarious.
Damn! Fresco and Kid Twist need to get back to this point... They are both dope ass writers.
RIP JDF,
I'm Tommy the with vest, you're billy the blue ranger.
That shit was so even, I aint mad either way. Anybody who said one dude or the other murdered the other, U officially a Stan.
BOTH of them killed it! Good battle
Wow this was definitely a hard battle to decide on. Fresco and Kid Twist are both really really good. I do think Kid Twist outdid Fresco though. Not to say Fresco is bad but KT is a step above. The flip with the Shamwow was so sick.
much better battle than i expected
@silckon He's refering to the metal band Tool, thier singer is namned Maynard James Keenan and he is also the founder of another metal group called A perfect circle.
big ups to kid twist....mad humble emcee....
good too see the crowd got the tool/apc line, great bands.
Kid Twist was taking that shit seriously. Damn.
i watch kotd well b4 grind time n av 2 say both leaques are sick n this match was ill bt nice 2 see grind time judges not jerking the mc's n actuli givin it 2 the guy that genuinely won
from where is fresco? i think i saw him somewhere?
fresco and kid twist came hard dope
Nigel please! Holy Shit, that was awesome. I enjoy Kid Twist's thought provoking flow and good natured manner. Fresco is pure talent but at times is too pompous, I appreciated his humility in the after interview. Also, he looks like my kid brother which may be why I don't like him.
To everyone who says Fresco killed Twist, 'NIGEL, PLEASE!'.
The reference to A Perfect Circle was awesome too.
Great battle!!
Kid twist might win with his freestyle capability
@moneyindabank6 If you are talking about Fresco saying it he said "you had a brief scent as Canada's King of the Dot." As in he had the title in KOTD for a short time.
Why in every grindtime battle with kid twist or KOTD, the judges are different then the normal same judges you see in other grindtime battles?
every time i see a battle with kid twist and he wins, theres always someone who says that the other person got robbed
People that think Fresco won don't know hip hop. Fresco was great but Twist used lines that brought hip hop flavor to back to battling.
Twist does so well because he's a strait battler!!
never would have thought maynard keenan would be used in a rap battle lol good shit
Twist had the OT, but Fresco in 3. No OT was needed to decide this one. I think Fresco shudda had it in 3. But Twist's OT was killer.
two of the nicest...real deal is dope too but when is fresco gonna battle dolo again?
Man these are the good old days
kid twist absolutely KILLED!!!!! fresco in OT
I don't know what the rules are like now, but back then, if a battle went into overtime, the decision was made SOLELY on the strength of the OT round. Kid Twist's OT was clearly better.
that tool line was sick
Love both MCs, pretty fucking even either way
God that was a sick frickin battle!!!!! I thought it was a tie all the way.
where can i hear sum of frescos music??
good battle!!!!!
OT = Kid Twist in God Mode
Kid twist impersonated Conceited better then Conceited impersonating himself.
PERSONALLY.. FRESCO.. THAT SHIT WAS DOPE.. PHAT BATTLE. MAD PROPS TO KIDTWIST, SICK ASS SHIT AS WELL
a surprisingly sick battle
haha yo pause at 1:27 twist look about as scary as a litter of kittens lol
@LeBanditButterscotch Yup u right, I had to wikipedia that but he delivered it w/ such swagger that it kinda didn't matter.
Both are nice as hell. Actually, the closest GT battle I've seen.
fresco's OT was bodybag ish... then twist cameback still, I think OT coulda gone either way, and this is one of the best battles I've ever seen, shit was classic. sooo many quotables.
i think fresco edged it in 3 too...but coulda gone either way too, so regardless this was a really close battle and cant complain about the way it was called cus it was sooo close.
ill battle forreal, props to both forreal
Closet battle I've seen on GT. I'm a Kid Twist fan, but I would have given this to Fresco. Could have gone either way though, so I'm not pissed about the outcome.
Hip hop wins
its like the same person is battling himself!!!!
Twist got it
Twist killed that, fresco's only good verse was his first one, and twist still got that one. I cant believe the hyroglyphic dude was all about Fresco after Twists line about them.
sick battle!!!
i had to look up MAYNARD JAMES KEENAN but that shit was worth it takes the line to a whole nother level
@filmnoirincolor Ohh. Okay, I get it now, thanks man. For actually explaining it and not just saying how stupid I am or something.
Dope ass battle. They should have gone like 10 rounds lol
Mad respect to Kid Twist, but I give this one to Fresco.
Fresco got the battle. Twist killed him on the OT. Damn good battle.
