Grind Time Presents: 9DM vs Tantrum 

I must of seen this battle like 100x times throughout the years. Classic battle

tantrum's last line was the nail in the coffin

This was one of the first Grind Time battles I watched 10 years ago and Tantrum saying, "Look here fuckface!" still gets me everytime. LMFAO!!!

Those opening lines by Tantrum are some of the best lines ever in Battle rap ... it was over after that lol

classic grind time

"Get mad and depressed, shoot up a Panda Express" haha made me LOL

"I hope you call your mom to pick you up and she dies on the way here" *girl in background* "that's meannnn" ahah

That civic hatchback door and the quantum physics on honda civics is one of the hardest things ive ever heard..

Round 1 - 9DM Round 2 - Tantrum Round 3 - Tantrum

It's not noise mom! Rap speaks to my soul!

tantrum's first line in his first verse was enough for me to say he took it LOOL "look here fuck face" HAHAHA

Archive of NOW CDs! LOOOOOOL

"Cus you're fresh off the boat.!" Damn 9DM

LMFAO everytime tantrum spits, i start dieing on the floor. 5:03 HAHAHAH

Tantrum started each verse HILARIOUSLY raging.

I didnt see this battle til now.. damn.. that last line kiiilled it.. hahaha

i just love tantrum... he's so amazingly aggressively funny.. lol

TANTRUM BEASTED IT! I like this guy.

THUMBS UP IF ALL YA WANTED TO SEE... TANTRUM VS. DIZASTER!!

"You look out your balcony singing along to your archive of NOW cds!" LOL!!! Shoulda went OT

I think Nocan was fucking around. He knew that the other judges were gonna give it to Tantrum. Dope battle. Man, west coast bringing it!

Yeah he did! The same ending 9DM had on IlluzionZ

Rap speaks to my soul!!!!! lol when he says this hes face looks like a character from south park.

.....damn, was this shit really 5 years ago???

9dm's 1st round was nuts, that 'balance beam correct' line was dope as fuck! This needed OT though.

LOL at tantrum's sigh of relief at 9:55 when he took his first win. I was laughing my ass off when I saw his 0-2. Who did he lose to after Dumbfoundead?

9dm is beastin. He should get a good name at the next event.

I've never seen Tantrum dominate that much.

This is Grindtime.

They are doing thier own thing. I like battles with BEATS better too!!!!!! Like most rap battles used to do.

Im a battle Emcee. I like Grindtime battles.. I think they should use a beat for at least a round.. RAP= RHYTHM and poetry...

tantrum ended it perfectly.. you just knew he was done with it lol

OMG!!!!!! Tantrum!!!! holy crap man.... he spit some good stuff.

Tantrum killed him with that last line xD he flipped that name line 9DM used when he battled Illusion-Z that was dope :'D

Can someone explain what Nocando was talking about? Who is Opra?

Koo ass battle.. lol fresh off the boat. .

tantrum is fuckin savage

what battle was nocando watching?

Because, BELIEVE IT OR NOT West coast battling didnt start with grindtime. Tatrum been killing it over beats and accapella, written and freestyle. Besides, even in the battles he lost he ripped it.

this battle is dope tantrum is a beast

9dm Came hard in the beginning. I have to respect that

when he walks into a room, we're like "damn it, tantrums here" lol one of my fav botb3 battles, personally i thought it shoulda gone to OT

tantrums intro r classic..and his 3rd verse is bodybag

i agree. the DFD battle was a close one though

"You look out to your balcony// singing along to your archives of NOW Cd's." Funny shit. Both dudes went in on this.

I really wanna know why Nocan gave it to 9DM. He's usually very concise and fair minded. That was CLEARLY Tantrums win! Props to both rappers tho, for sho.

9DM was spitting writtens up til round 3. Tantrum came strong on the end and took it IMO.

@flame1113 the generic was more apparent in the illusion battle

Ah yeah, it was Reverse Live. Now I remember!!! I even saw that video a long time ago. Haha... the Feng Shui line from Reverse murdered Tantrum. Can't believe I forgot about that one. I feel bad for Tantrum though. He's only been facing the tough cats so far.

Lmao. 9DM's face at 9:01. "Shit I got crushed..."

what does the the winner get?

both brought it this time

Tantrum's music speaks to my soul and Trevor Chad bartholemew worthington lines were bodybag. Lol.

tantrum is just sick man

Tantrum is killin. 9DM fucked up round 2. 2pac shaker sealed it.

Tantrum had the perfect ending....and I mean perfect..

Rap speaks to my soul oh shit he snapped

Tantrum pwns. Great battle.

how are you claiming that the judging was biased? There were 2 florida judges also.

i agree with you 100% RIGHT ON BLACKIE!

agreed with everything here

dope battle.tantrums finisher was hilarious!good shit

when he said his real name it was officially OVER!

@1800LAZERFACE dirtbag is fire all day everyday. his punchlines are witty and funny. and part of the battle rap scene is performance, and i dont know many people that do it like he does

Surprised by the decision. Tatrum had about 3 sick lines, but 9DM was more consistent.

I personally think 9DM killed it the first two rounds, but Tantrum blasted him away in the third

there not too much thats outta bounds in a battle, but 9dm's last line of round 1 is getting there

9DM strengths: smoking blunts haha

Tantrum really dominated, surprised that NoCan gave it to 9dm...I think he just did it as a joke so he could use that Oprah line.

haha someone in the back "9DM is mean!"

Did 9dm get a foul in the first round???

I think Nocando should be the only one judging..seems to really listen to the battle closely and not be swayed by crowds --tantrum is tight but he didn't come with it, with the exception of the last round..I actually gave 9 the first two rounds..tantrum stuttered twice in round 1 but I could never fee like he was getting into a rhythm until the third..I think the decision was wrong

@kai0shin Made up. It's a reference to the 9DM vs. Illusion-Z battle that went down.

Hell yeah tantrum finally gets in the win column. What was with Nocan knowing his vote was lame?

ive watched this a couple times and i agree..9dm might have actually edged it slightly if he went last....never been disappointed by a 9dm battle tho. def good shit

I love 9DM. I wish he would do something for the DMV DIVISION.

that shit was tight. 5stars Tantrum got better this time. but respect to both rappers.

@jonkyjonky ?? is that his real name or made up ??

"rebuttal notebook/colour coded" hometime.

Tupack Shaker was sick!!!

glad tantrum finally got that W....right decision was made, altho i dont think it was as 'clear cut' as jamie dewolfe thought....9dm was hella nice, but tantrum went in...

Tantrum is a beast

they are in oakland

Agree

Both these cats are fucking dope.

Ha, you can hear DFD laugh at 7:58

He's seriously comin at Buddha?!!?! fucked up lol. But yeah, Tantrum for sure

9DM killed it, havn't seen anything from him that wasn't murderific, Tantrum killed it also, though my vote (if it counted for something) would've gone to 9DM, nocando knows his shit

fuck his first round listen to his 3rd round... that shit was crazy

damm Tantrum got this

R1 - 9DM R2 - Tantrum R3 - Tantrum

I would've perferred an OT, but I see how they gave it to Tantrum.

Tantrum took that, hands down!

@AdrenalStorm tantrum's pretty good, he just happened to lose to those that were really good

Yooooo i just saw this soooon lmfaooo 9DM is mad mean son. hes sooo fucking hurtful yo. the whole time just had the crowd like OOOOOOO!!!

Purple in the mother fucking Errrrr LMFAOOOO

You guys listen to 9's 1st round again...That shit was type tight...
