Dont Flop’s first ever title defense was one for the ages!  For those without any knowledge of the UK battle scene, let me paint you a picture: BARS vs JOKES at its finest.  On one side you have one of the funniest, charismatic and entertaining battlers today - Oshea, who is definitely the peoples champion and fan favorite in Dont Flop.  On the other side, you have Tony D - calm, cool, poised, and BARS for days.  This battle is very arguable because it features two opposite sides of the battle spectrum complete with their own fan bases, but one thing's for sure - this match will have you both laughing and doing the “mmmmmm” noise the whole way through.Eurgh, let me get that hoodie and snapback!  Dope colorway.Memorable Moment: “All that bars over jokes bullshit is for nerdy faggots / cause we’re both grown adults - NONE OF IT REALLY MATTERS!”

This battle is significant for three major reasons: a.) At the time it was the youngest rap battle in history - Farnum was 15 and DNA was 16 b.) Fans were not excited about this battle until DNA decided to make a hilarious blog in which he dressed up like farnum and depicted how his opponent would prepare (see video here,) which launched vlogging into the forefront of battle rap as a way to promote your matchups. c) It was crazy.  What made this match so hype was the fact that DNA talked so much shit before the battle, while farnum said nothing, but both had super crazy rounds.  The controversial decision had fans arguing over who won on both youtube and worldstar, but launched these emcees into battle rap’s spotlight.Ever since Farnum told DNA, “you look like Drect with his teeth wrecked” people have been asking me if we are related.  No, but he’s still my son (lol.)  Memorable Moment: The look on everyone’s face when Farnum spit the Many Men/Shook Ones line.  We didn’t know he was old enough to recall that type of hip hop history.

The 2006 Rap World Championships were one of the major launch pads for this era of battle rap.  They introduced the 2vs2 into battle rap, brought our community closer on a international level and introduced fans to some of the top talent around the globe.  After both teams went undefeated for 10 weeks, the platform was set for one of the illest finals in battle history.  This was the defining moment in cementing Illmaculate and The Saurus’ legacy as pioneers of a new battle style that would be copied and recreated over the next 6 years.  Listen to the background crowd reactions, they are hilarious.  Memorable Moment: The Saurus’ Christian Bale/British Rail scheme - amazing for that time period.  Also, Immaculate had the perfect ending to the battle with, “Its the US bitch - we advocate war / And our country is just arrogant enough to eradicate yours.”

After going an impressive 3-0 in the Fight Klub, Sam Scarfo was called out was called out by Dipset’s own 40 Cal.   He didn’t necessarily know who Sam Scarfo was, but there is speculation that 40 took the battle in an attempt to embarrass Scarfo in front of his (then) manager, legendary hip hop director, Benny Boom.  Both emcees put up $3,500 and the result was a questionable decision that, ultimately led to a rematch three weeks later for $7,500.  After the battles, Scarfo was signed to Def Jam through his Gorilla Pimp imprint, giving more value to this already historic footage.  Unknown to the public, Sam Scarfo’s Fight Klub resume boasted wins against Cardi and Scarchild (along with Avalanche and 40 Cal.)  Scarfo was also scheduled to battle Murda Mook on SMACK and enter the 50K Mixshow Power Summit battle in Puerto Rico, but after Def Jam advised against it, Serius Jones and Shellz took his place in the respective battles. Memorable Moment: "Like Martin told Cole, we'll never see your Tommy work" - 40 was the first with a Martin/Tommy line.

After West Coast emcee “Foolish” didn’t show up for a $2K battle against Kronic Plague after his run on the Wake Up Show, fans started to anticipate his entry into Grind Time.  Stockton, CA emcee QP, of the SONS crew started making noise after a few impressive tryout battles, so Lush One threw the two together in what turned out to be the battle that would launch Quantum Physics (QP) into superstardom and give KP a push into the limelight.  Memorable Moment: QP’s overtime round - The 10 Plagues of Egypt

Ex Fight Klub champ Axel seemed to just be a victim of bad timing and management.  As one of the most celebrated champs in FK history, he never got the shine he deserved as none of his matches were ever aired on tv or leaked to the internet in the early 2000s, thus stripping away his potential legendary status.  A legend in his own right, Cyssero made a name for himself alongside names like Reed Dollaz, Reign Man and Meek Mill on the Philly battle scene (Heavy Spitters and 2 Raw For The Streets) with classic battles and freestyles appearing all over youtube.  Cyssero’s status as an emcee raised up a notch when he signed to The Game’s Black Wall Street imprint in the mid 2000s.  Four years ago, Fight Klub’s Executive Nick decided to release the match for all of us to see.  Too bad it wasn’t released during the time period in which it was filmed - the true definition of a classic.  Look close and you’ll see Sara Kana  Memorable Moment: “That bodybag zip ... YOU’LL NEVA SEE HIM AGAIN ...CHYEA!” - Delivery at its finest.

This may very well be the most slept on battle of this entire list.  Grind Time Florida (then) President, Kap Kallous convinced Real Deal to travel to the south and take on a Florida heavyweight Rugged, who was one big named battle away from being a GT top tier.  The amazing part about this battle is that right when you think Real Deal has finally met his match, he comes right back every single round.  Til this day, Rugged has some of the most effective lines ever used against Real Deal.  Memorable Moment: Then end of Ruggeds 3rd round and the beginning of Real Deal 3rd.  One of the best ending punchlines and rebuttal flips ever.

Two of the best flows and deliveries in battle rap on display in this classic matchup.  After Reign Man became the MTV battle champion, the world knew his flow was sick, but when all of his philly street battles appeared on youtube it was solidified.  Fox 5 is the original unorthodox battle rapper - he is the ODB of this shit; laughable street content with charisma through the roof.  This video is hilarious and impressive at the same time.  Memorable Moment: Fox 5 being Reign Man’s hypeman in the third round.

If you have been reading this whole list, then you are probably noticing how many female battles I have included.  This is on purpose, as I believe that they are slept on and have began to master their craft over the past few years.  This is definitely my personal favorite female battle.  Tori Doe is like a cute little black doll baby with Rich Dolarz delivery and well thought out bars - just watching her perform is amazing.  On the other side, we have 40 B.A.R.R.S, who may be the best lyricist in female battle rap.  40 seemed to get hated on a lot because of her lack of aggression and the fact that she is an out-of-towner to the Queen of the Ring crowd.  This is the battle where 40 pulled through and became a fan favorite; watching these two at their best was definitely a sight to see.  Memorable Moment: “I eat young bitches too nigga ... Statu-tory”

This is the match that made URL’s Proving Grounds and opened the doors for new emcees in SMACK’s format.  Both emcees were in rare form and seemed like veterans in their first big battles. Qleen’s dope mix of jokes and bars, along with B-Magic’s punchlines ... *whew* just watch.  Memorable Moment: “Gave her the Kool Moe Dee ... so how you like me now?”
