Illmac, NessLee & 24/7 are my Top 3 Best all around artists in the game. All 3 are fresh af in the Battle scene, as well as on track! Cant be said for most.
Had to come back and watch this again Im a huge fan of both emcees and it's crazy to see where there at now and how far they've come much love and respect salute!
I bet you record in a little ass booth Whats your height in feet? A little past 2? Your favorite time of the day is a little past 2:00 & you got a short history Mac, a little past too! that was dope
These are the kind of promo matches I love, the ones that are dead even with two equally lyrically skilled opponents. The ones that are too close to call are the ones that deserve the most buzz.
Illmac is the definition of a true mc. If you watched him since Scribble/WRC you can see he laughs at his opponents punches, and overall has good sportsmanship. Seeing this battle I realize how much his delivery has changed, but in a way in which his talent is only more obvious. He has a nonthreatening yet ruthless presence that comes with nasty bars. Even his simpler setups like the roadhead one are delivered impeccably. Not to mention his music is DOPE, so don't forget a legend; word
i honestly think this is the best I've ever seen Illmac, he seemed much more comfortable in this battle than in the grizzlemania battles, hopefully this is a sign of good things to come, seems he's in his prime, cus his past albums/mixtapes have been disappointing, but this battle and the Illness EP / Skrill Talk album, everything from him is dope lately, very impressed. And Ness came dope as always, this is a slept on battle so far, one of the best I've seen in awhile.
SPECTACULAR BATTLE. Two Beasts, great lines and skill from both. Illmaculate edged it. He's slightly more polished. But not many could hang with Ness Lee.
If I could speak for these oceans to take what I say away, my breath for my entire life wouldn't be enough to fit what I'd say. My sentences that come out of my mouth becoming a speech, they'd speak to make this entire verse unique - in reverse as you read
Illmaculate has been revived!!! Wow since the Con battle he's been off but this not anymore, he's back. Man, seeing him in this battle made me rewind it repeatedly. He completely rebounded.
"I'm just gonna say what everyone's been thinking the whole night like when personalized hats go wrong...but wait, when do the go right" Classic genius.
This is a classic battle. Illmac took this by a hair though. The Mc-Circumstance bar was bananas. Ness just grew to another level after this though. His schemes are other-worldly.
I think Ness Lee has really dope lyrics, but Illmac has not only better performance, but also more relevant lines (aside from the "i fucked your girl" sections). I felt his lines are more realistic and hard-hitting. That's just my opinion though.
I never personally chime in on the Battles I've watched, but I MOST DEFINITELY have to on this one. Beast mode, two of the Illest Styles PERIOD. They proved why they get high praises in this one. Ness did falter and stumble a little, but nonetheless he ripped it. Illmac seemed WAY MORE RELAXED during this battle which helped in his delivery and presence overall. If this were judged , Illmac took this one. Ness Lee is a beast and still One of my Top 5 from Day one ..
@Juiceish1 lounge battles 8 is going on as we speak in FLA with that, as well as a KOTD event "Proud2BeEhEmcee" happening tonight in toronto (both are that format - these leagues are written accapella leagues)
"See I'm Scoring Like D-Wade, But I'm Not A Sportsman Or Team Player. You're Corny But Seem Brave And That's Unfortunate Behavior."...................WTF???? Easily one of the best rhyme schemes I've heard...EVER.
Ness and Illmac are too classic. Their bars are like music. Love them both man, good shit.
great battle... wish they could all be this entertaining and worthwhile... lately been feeling like I wasted mad minutes.
Watch all illmacs battles you'll learn that he is one of the best
so is ness!
Illmac, NessLee & 24/7 are my Top 3 Best all around artists in the game. All 3 are fresh af in the Battle scene, as well as on track! Cant be said for most.
I've been watching nesslee's battles he is really nice very underrated 24/7 is nice too don't here much about him anymore though
ShaRMz6g he battled eurgh on kotd... good battle. check it out.

Illmac's second round was some of the most incredible lyricism I've ever heard.
I ain't even see you there... Classic
Had to come back and watch this again Im a huge fan of both emcees and it's crazy to see where there at now and how far they've come much love and respect salute!
lmao "I'll bet you record in a little ass booth." I forgot how funny this battle was.
Best Beginning Of Any Grindtime Battle.

one of the best ever grindtime battles, real talk
one of my all time fave battles
towards the end when dude is trying to pass the L, you see that scavenger arm come out of nowhere...cray

best intro ever
both these dudes are some of the most consistent rappers. aand make wonderful music. cant wait for their battles in bob6
GOOD FUCKIN BATTLE!
ness lee makes everything seem effortless... both these guys are great to watch
EVERYONE is there! lol
"think I can't beat ness lee? test my reflex speed"
impeccable delivery
2:40 had me rollin'!
Even when Illmac is faded as shit, one of the best
ness went in on that track 19:03
this was actually a very enjoyable battle to watch. both emcees came in going hard and the best of all they had nice jokes that made me lol
lush making the ugliest face when he drank that booze ha
Ness Lee is very funny and seems like a nice person .. I like him very much , i enjoy watching him..Love from Greece bro
Ness got cooked! Clean 30
One of the best battles ever in Grindtime.
As far as flow and structures go.
This battle should have a million views.
These dudes making music together is fucking awesome too. Can't wait for that shit.
"you threaten people twice as tall as you, you know karate moves?"
This is the single best display of lyricism in the history of Grindtime.
I bet you record in a little ass booth
Whats your height in feet? A little past 2?
Your favorite time of the day is a little past 2:00
& you got a short history Mac, a little past too!
that was dope
Damn this only has 60 thousand views?!? i think its worth more than that for sure.
Probably my favorite battle ever
These are the kind of promo matches I love, the ones that are dead even with two equally lyrically skilled opponents. The ones that are too close to call are the ones that deserve the most buzz.
This battle was important. It solidified Illmac's new style and propelled Ness to the big leagues. Dope clash of schemes here.
this is definitely one of the sickest battles ive ever seen
I love when rappers laugh at the other's punches. It shows respect, and that its still a sport
These videos are great. Who are the best guys to watch?
I've been watching back all these old battles...fuckin fire and avocado's work is amazing
I liked the eyewear ad. much more than the battle!
Watched this battle bout 5 times, didn't even realize they were passin a blunt. All I noticed was two dope emcees spittin heat
Dope battle
We not gonna see another dope battle like these for like couple months maybe
Wow both of them are beasts, they brought some sick frees and the battle was awesome. That's a 5 star
wowwww at illmacs third verse, gave me some goosebumps wit that delivery n wordplayy
i think this is one of the best battles in GT ever and 87k views only?
this was the best showcase of lyricism and rapping skills in all GT battles
this is one of my favorite battles, no actual beef between the two...just a fun battle
Illmac is the definition of a true mc. If you watched him since Scribble/WRC you can see he laughs at his opponents punches, and overall has good sportsmanship.

Even his simpler setups like the roadhead one are delivered impeccably. Not to mention his music is DOPE, so don't forget a legend; word
Ness's first round is one of my favorite rounds in GT, i cant stop watchin it lol
Two of the DOPEST in GT right here. Great battle.
"I did'nt even see you there"...hahahahaha Goddamn that shit had me rollin'!!!!
I love the smile Illmac gives at around 3:10 when he knows Ness Lee was using left over Illusion-Z lines against him.........
Man, I love Ness' flow on this one.
i honestly think this is the best I've ever seen Illmac, he seemed much more comfortable in this battle than in the grizzlemania battles, hopefully this is a sign of good things to come, seems he's in his prime, cus his past albums/mixtapes have been disappointing, but this battle and the Illness EP / Skrill Talk album, everything from him is dope lately, very impressed.
And Ness came dope as always, this is a slept on battle so far, one of the best I've seen in awhile.
Dope battle.. Illmac with the heat like usual. and yeah, what is the name of the intro track for 9five? shit is mad chill.
Ness Lee VS Calicoe.....would be a million view classic, guaranteed!
where can i get this EP at?
The amazing Illmac built in time clock!
SPECTACULAR BATTLE. Two Beasts, great lines and skill from both. Illmaculate edged it. He's slightly more polished. But not many could hang with Ness Lee.
this guy Ness is one of the funniest cats i seen battlin in a while. that 1st round was murder
Greatest bar of all time : "I bet you record in a little ass booth" . AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I always felt like this is the battle I would show somebody who's never watched battle rap and try to get them into it
yo does anyone know when illmaculate's "Skrill Talk LP" is coming out? i thought it was June 1st or some shit.
If I could speak for these oceans to take what I say away, my breath for my entire life wouldn't be enough to fit what I'd say. My sentences that come out of my mouth becoming a speech, they'd speak to make this entire verse unique - in reverse as you read
Easily my favorite battle yet.
i like how they battled than released an album a year or so later
Illmaculate has been revived!!!
Wow since the Con battle he's been off but this not anymore, he's back. Man, seeing him in this battle made me rewind it repeatedly. He completely rebounded.
Can't wait for the IllNess EP or the Skrill Talk LP, gonna be dope
"I'm just gonna say what everyone's been thinking the whole night
like when personalized hats go wrong...but wait, when do the go right" Classic genius.
This is a classic battle. Illmac took this by a hair though. The Mc-Circumstance bar was bananas. Ness just grew to another level after this though. His schemes are other-worldly.
love em both
This is a great battle. Ness and Ill came with some heavy bars.
Ness Lee is straight entertainment. Even when he loses, like he did here, I listen to dude's every round.
@chewytorch2 same as ness lee's intro song. they're working on an album together, it's not out yet tho
is this battle taking place after they all got kicked out of the venue during dizaster vs arsonal?
Awesome battle, big ups to both these dudes... I though Ness might have edged the 2nd, but Ill took this for sure
Round 1 - Ness Lee
Round 2 - Ness Lee
Round 3 - reallllll close
Ness Lee wins
I think Ness Lee has really dope lyrics, but Illmac has not only better performance, but also more relevant lines (aside from the "i fucked your girl" sections). I felt his lines are more realistic and hard-hitting. That's just my opinion though.
They both crazy with the schemes, dope rapping! I
crazy battle, both killed it!
Never get tired of watching that 9five commercial.
"I'll bet you record in a little ass booth" had me dying.
illmac took it. hes underrated man, he bodybags almost everytime.. give him some bigger battles
great battle!!!
I never personally chime in on the Battles I've watched, but I MOST DEFINITELY have to on this one.
Beast mode, two of the Illest Styles PERIOD. They proved why they get high praises in this one. Ness did falter and stumble a little, but nonetheless he ripped it. Illmac seemed WAY MORE RELAXED during this battle which helped in his delivery and presence overall. If this were judged , Illmac took this one. Ness Lee is a beast and still One of my Top 5 from Day one ..
Damn, Illmaculate is amazing!
"....how come u can tell the difference between his written and free's ?" haha!! beautiful!
thanx bro
Ness Lee you're a genius!!!
lol at the guy blazing whole joint to his dome in the background before passing it lmao
"If your an Nes than I'm a PS3"....that line was dope
@Juiceish1 lounge battles 8 is going on as we speak in FLA with that, as well as a KOTD event "Proud2BeEhEmcee" happening tonight in toronto (both are that format - these leagues are written accapella leagues)
in need to know what song what song was that in the begining. the 2nd one
"See I'm Scoring Like D-Wade, But I'm Not A Sportsman Or Team Player. You're Corny But Seem Brave And That's Unfortunate Behavior."...................WTF???? Easily one of the best rhyme schemes I've heard...EVER.
@Gregdafro i saw all those but wtf he lost to hollow?? i dont think illmac was trying as much as those other battles u mentioned.
amazing battle
@snipercodyp11
yeah homie they're working on a whole EP together. i wonder if that's been pushed back now that ness' home burnt down...
@northregent
how are the older systems better?
they are classic yes, but they are old and far less powerful than newer systems.
@ChickenFriedVice so im assuming your illmac? ok cool and best of wishes on that EP dude ill try to cop that biz asap
i forgot how good this battle actually is.
YOO Can someone tell me the SOng in the beginning From like 01:12 - 01:48 ness lee and illmaculate or in the song
