I was in central bookings with ice one time we freestyled for hours after a while i started rapping with that flow he said ( big man who flow that sound like) i was dying he real one everybody was in there for weed and light shit funny story doe
You can tell they're cool in real life. A lot of people ask why some people won't battle each other, this is why. They're both nice but it just isn't as intense when they really rock with each other.
You right about that shit ... First battle I've seen where the crowd was actually civilized ... On URL stage it would've been an hrs worth of Don Demarcos ... And Shit like dat.... Shit like dat ...
Ice says "you look like Dennis Johnson" the crowd goes wild. I wonder how many of them are old enough to actually remember Dennis Johnson or even know who the fuck he is. Swave looks nothing like Dennis Johnson. I don't get crowds at these battles, they go bananas over the most random shit.
The funny thing is he does look like Dennis Johnson with braids. i.cdn.turner.com/nba/nba/.element/media/2.0/teamsites/celtics/media/dennis-johnson-200x175.jpg
when i come across DJ in archives n shit, as a youngen i guess i saw him as, a og triple og lookin mf'er. yeah something about his demeanor, had him lookin standout "old". Thats my thought on him before i got to see anyhing about his bball credentials or him as person. Anywho i thought ICE line was nice, coz of the shock, and the fact that that comparison with swave is so so reasonable in my view. :) WOLFn hOMi luv
Shout outs to both these legends. Even though I think swave won, I have never seen a more aggressive lyrical battle. I'm glad that this battle is part of history. Thank you..
'plus some footage of the foreplay, oh, dog...' none of you got that 'footage of the four-play, o-dogg' menace 2 society, cctv footage of him with the gun...
I have watched this battle like 20 times since it was released. Everytime I watch it, it becomes harder to give Swave anything but the first round. ICE's second and third rounds were legend. I'm sorry for those who didn't get the bars ICE spit. Them shits was fire. It's like he came out in the first with jokes, after hearing Swave's first he realized Swave came to fight. But once ICE went on his G shit, Swave got what he wanted: To see his icon rap.
I came back to show love! One of my favorite battles because they both put in the work and they both went hard. 2020 Merc short for Mercutio; You should know!!!
Came back to this battle almost 10 years later and its a classic. These are the type of battles that stand the test of time. Ice has subtle lines that you catch a decade later "Talkin like your weight right will get your in your grave site, SEE me clearly.." Dual meaning of SITE/SIGHT in the next bar because it continues with "SEE me clearly..." Also, the bars before all pertain to Swave's eyesight hence the sequence starting by Ice calling him "Foggy" Ice shit is different he be having layered meanings in filler bars
Nah I actually thought that was a dope line. Shit was brutal. Telling her she's a dog out here sucking balls and shit making her team look bad... Just the way he said it - I know that shit HAD to stick with her fr a while
10:17 - 10:25 These dudes been way cool since way back, they both from Harlem and Team Homi. But right here Swave gives it up to Ice. Both are real as it gets in battle rap and though Swave is a blackbelt (not sure which discipline) in martial arts, EVERYBODY knows Head Ice is the O.G. in damn near any room he steps into. Love this battle. Ps I love her home fries, I love her love her home fries lmao
***** probably you're right !! .. this battle is too hood and G for me probably cuz i didn't raise in a hood or i'm not a G :) .. or probably bcuz at that time i watched Charlie Clips Vs Tay Rock "rematch" and came straight to this one .. but anyways for me .. this is one of the boring battles i've ever seen "just my personal opinion"
Ice has a flow that is 100% harlem, Swave is a beast 100% 2 tall harlem legends this is a classic
Classic old school trash talk
I can't lie no one won this battle it was just an honor to watch real G's entertaining
Na man Ice won that 1st 2 rounds clearly, Swave 3rd was 🔥tho
@@ashadams1000 to o
Great battle indeed
THATS A FAAAAAAAACT
"I want to crossbow but you don't even half the heart"....Damn, head ice is a poet.
Head ice got that old skool prison flow
hell yeah son. Ice is hard as fuck fam.... pause.
And don't never say shit.
msub76 right lol
I was in central bookings with ice one time we freestyled for hours after a while i started rapping with that flow he said ( big man who flow that sound like) i was dying he real one everybody was in there for weed and light shit funny story doe
@@msub76 ... By using a double negative(dont never), you actually sayin he only says good shit!!!
i love her home fries
This shit is Ken vs Ryu. Two niggas who got the same style. Head Ice with the fire punches and Swave with the karate kicks.
yup 👏👏👏👏👏

This is perhaps the dumbest break down of a battle ever. You can be the next Battle Rap Chris.
Swave givin Ice the 12 bucks he owed him and ice sayin "you gon put that with these hundreds?" i was dyin. fun battle.

ppl say this battle boring. the crowd was so well behaved. I loved it. enjoyed watching this
Exactly. The crowd respected them and wanted to hear what they had to say.
You right about that shit ... First battle I've seen where the crowd was actually civilized ... On URL stage it would've been an hrs worth of Don Demarcos ... And Shit like dat.... Shit like dat ...

ICE is the only man on the planet who is allowed to use the word SWAG... OG as fuck!
Ice with the slick talk, gotta love it, Swave slow walking him down tho, love this battle!!
swave sevah has that cookie monster flow
Great battle, respect to both emcees! Harlem don't stop!
ICE 3-0 swave is usually on point but he took a dumb angle on this joint..ICE is top tier he need more battle on the big stage...
Dumb angle? You buggin. That was genius.
what how to melt ice? for 3 rds?
Tony Pesacreta melting is just the first round...then boiling...then evaporation. obviously you didn't pay attention

"I BEAR HUNT WITH THE PEPPER SPRAY"!! IIIICE!
One of my fave battles 7 years later.
am I the only one who has a big craving for some home fries 😂😂
Head ice stage presence/personna is amazing. You would never think this was his first battle in like five years. He raps so cool and smooth.
'plus some footage of the foreplay, oh, dog...' none of you got that
'footage of the four-play, o-dogg' menace 2 society, cctv footage of him with the gun...
G
I think we all got it .
Say no more, good lookin, cuz you did owe me! Love this battle, both men are OG's imo
You don't see battles like this any more. Battles with pure mutual respect.
Head Ice brought me here

Swave's man hood was left on stage during Ice's second round. R.I.P. "I bear Hunt with the pepper spray"

Lame? Buggin.
Nah I actually thought that was a dope line. Shit was brutal. Telling her she's a dog out here sucking balls and shit making her team look bad... Just the way he said it - I know that shit HAD to stick with her fr a while
thas why ppl get caught up in battle rap... its all in preference.. im a goodz fan and i swear niggas hate goodz but its all in preference..

Luke 11:28
But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.
dude... head ice's third verse was boring and dope a fuck at the same time. some impossible shit.
Swave 3-0. Ice is cool and all but I know subpar bars when I hear em. Also I can't buy the tough talk when Swaves background is well documented.
Iambigjones yeah but ice a legend with clout aka hires hitmen
10:17 - 10:25 These dudes been way cool since way back, they both from Harlem and Team Homi. But right here Swave gives it up to Ice. Both are real as it gets in battle rap and though Swave is a blackbelt (not sure which discipline) in martial arts, EVERYBODY knows Head Ice is the O.G. in damn near any room he steps into.

Ps I love her home fries, I love her love her home fries lmao
Sway always look like a nerd that's tryna fit in...like he used 2 get bullied in school so he learned how 2 rap so people can respect him lol
True. But he talk gangsta. And his 3rd was cool
tone j ..Step to him and see if he's a bully. His father really is a black belt and i'm quite sure he taught his son how to fight.
SuperTruthful so...he still a nerd and most nerds learn karate
tone j..He looks nerdy but he doesn't talk or act like one.
SuperTruthful yea he do he's bottom 5 easy
This battle is more humorous than anything. It shows the humanity between the two without all this gunplay. I liked it
love the respect at the end
cortez sucks.....Swave Sevah won hands down!
