i like how tech started the second verse just laughing...good times...it's even funnier when great emcees serve their own crewmembers...you can just imagine tech rubbing it in on the ride home...
Hahaha fucking awsome - two of the best rappers ever in my opinion - best flows and killer lyrics of truth - going head to head. Man I wish I was there. Thanks for posting this bro, great vid!
Dude, they were both fucking sick. I've never seen a battle that fucking intense. The best part is, they can rip into each other like that, but they're friends. Just fucking sick....
To be honest man I've been a Technique fan for the longest but after all that's been happening between the two and hearing everything I look back at this and I believe Diabolic is the sickest and got Tech and Talib on the tip
@NotreDameDuke28 Thanx I thought it might've been earlier like in 2002 or something because Tech's vocals sound similar to that in Revolutionary Vol. 1.
Vitun Jees yeah I know, I'm sure tech understands that is a pretty huge contradiction. I can't honestly tell why he does it. he's the smartest rapper I have ever heard of but you're right, that's kind of stupid.
I respect immortal technique but his battles is so wack they make u not wanna listen to him at all they finally found someone on his same level every other time he battles he gets trashed and embarrassed
i couldn't even take this battle seriously because i already know it was gonna be a draw as soon as i read the fuckin' title. this was like watchin the heat miser vs freeze miser...fireballs vs icicles.
Did a show with them, it's a bit of both lol for real though dudes destroy a stage, it's always nice having them in Dallas cuz all we usually get is cash money type of bullshit
@DiabolicHipHop dude u own just thought id let u know, that verse u did with tech at the end of dance with the devil was insane. i needa check it out some your solo shit
@MusiicKiing Immortal Technique also signed Diabolic to his label. Viper Records. He might be one of the best, but Tech recognizes other talent when he sees it.
I was in the process of coming up with a great argument, but your absolutely right... and anyone interested in Tech please peep the songs "YOU NEVER KNOW" "PERUVIAN COCAINE" and "DANCE WITH THE DEVIL"
@it00ns Actually, I think it's the reverse. He can't stand still and take it so he just acts out crap to be a distraction while the other guy is spitting. Maybe that's his style, but it seems annoying.
Theyre both way more lyrical and profound now thou that battle was really long time ago. I would whant to see diabolic and technique battle now in 2012 they both cool with each other thou this battle thou.
Lmao that was funny as shit, and to the person who said Technique was just intelligant not lyrical? You cant be legitimately lyrical without having intelligence, and have you honestly not heard "You never know". I find his flow good, and his wordplay is ill pretty much all the time. His simple rhyme scheme is true he just spits like a jam poet. But I still find him one of the illest I ever heard.
freestyle doesn't mean off the top of your head, common misconception, maybe in some ciphers do they do off the top but freestyle is generally a pre written rap not on any particular subject just awesomely written
Every race and ethnicity IS a nigga in rap and hip hop; being an African American only has to do with the word when it's used outside those genres. Respect the culture of the music--and don't ever question the identity of the person who uses that word if it's used in Hip Hop/Rap again.... So, Tech and Diabolic both did good. It wasn't the best battle ever but it kept my attention and it wasn't really wack. That's what matters anyways.
lmfao at 3:25 when he knew what he was gonna say haha what makes it more jokes is that he continues to pretned that he knows the words he's gonna say, my bro does that to me all the time, pisses me off
Tech needs to learn the rules of a battle. He kept on interrupting and distracting Diabolic while he was rhymng. They're both alright. I agree with willywallybangbang, Eminem would tear their asses up in 30 seconds flat.
