The unforgettable, controversial iron mic freestyle battle starring the infamous Eli Porter vs. some other dude. Can be found on XoXnXeX Uncensored Volume 1. Shot in fall 2003. Copyright 2003 XOXNXEX Films.
+Eric Okoye i was not aware to be honest no one has ever steped up to me and called me that in person and i am not involved in landscaping but i do have a buddy that i can forsure guranteeeee you hes doing a wholllleee lot better than most people just cutting grass haha anyways enjoy your racist life
Eli's 2nd verse was actually fire when you break it down. "See Ima let you know who the best, by the hour" (Every hour hes gonna remind you hes the best) "He just like Rosie Odonnel at a bisexual bridal shower" (Even at a bisexual event, Envy is gayer than everyone else) "It aint nothin to me man, I keep it for real" (This flow is easy, and I tell the truth) "Look at his dental, man, with a dent on a grill" (His teeth are crooked and specifically have a dent in them) "See, Im the best, I told you that" (A reference to his earlier verse) "This dude like that, he running from the cat" (Envy is "like that" as in not into women, and in fact, runs from them) "Naw I messed up, but Ima stay on top" (Although he slipped earlier he's still the best) "They told me, man, but you know, Im never gone flop" (He defies critics) "Look at this dude, he needs to stay in the shade" (Envy is so ugly he needs to stay where he cant be seen) "Aint no wonder why he came out, he already in the gay parade" (Another reference to Envy's sexuality) "I told you man I got you roasted like ever" (I'm destroying you right now) "You dont know but my rhymes, they straight up clever" (You arent smart enough to comprehend my lyrics) "So you step down off the pedestal" (Humble yourself) "Im the best man, you need to go to the fucking dental" (Once again, your teeth need evaluation) straight fire
Pretty interesting to know that the reason Eli stopped his magnificent flows was because he was being told to not use cuss words. Had they not cut him off he would have put on one of the greatest freestyles of all time.
I remember when this first came out. Me and the boys joked so hard on Eli but after 14 years I can see that Eli was on a whole other level. Straight fire. Still funny af though 🤣. I hope he’s doing alright these days. Brings back good memories.
So I tried to use the line "Ima let you know who the best, by the hour, it's like Rosie O'Donnell, at a bisexual bridal shower" as my senior quote and my school wouldn't let me. I tried to honor you Eli, I tried.
They thought Eli was choking, when in reality he was doing a doctor strange and calculating all his bars and how envy might react to them in order to create some fucking fire.
True story - this was for a high school video class. Eli wasn’t supposed to curse. He “pauses” because there’s people in the background telling him to stop cursing lol. That’s why he paused both times lol. His 2nd verse was legit fire 🔥🔥🔥
All these years later and I still feel like this is the perfect RU-vid video. It has something funny happening almost every second, from the video effects like the heart and the hilarious gradient at the beginning, then Marv-Os awkward intro where he says hes not going to explain the rules and then instantly explains the rules, to marvo Huggin on his bro. Literally everything Eli does is incredibly hilarious. To the outro with great lines like "That HAD to be better than last time!" To "They both did good but imma go with Envy cause he did great." Sketch shows like SNL and even Tim and Eric will NEVER come close to topping this. Its a masterpiece. Imagine how many more masterpieces are hiding in the vaults of highschools?
I'm so glad this video is still up. I hope this is backed up somewhere in case RU-vid ever goes under. This should be added to the National Recording Registry.
Not always. Sometimes people are sporadic. I have it. Ideas just flow at times. This is why some emcees can freestyle and others focus on their pen. It's similar for all forms of art that allows free flow. Being quick witted with a large vocabulary seems to be the foundation but there are more elements involved. It's also why freestyles tend to vary from hard lines from nowhere to basic nonsense that doesn't fit. Eyedea was a beast with this. Possibly my favourite legit freestyles I've heard.
I've been sayin, " I'm the best mane", for 12 years. It's a huge part of my linguistic style. But as the years passed, I forgot where I got the line from. So I finally remembered, and had to watch this video to refresh my memory on who the best really is.
The dude in the middle chair was being violated the whole time. When he wraps his arms around the dude at 3:53 his face goes from 😄 to 😕 lol Update: Marv-O and J-Dub are expecting their first child
Coz not all guys are insecure af about any action they do. Its todays manginas that feel deeply out of touch with their masculinity. Today any kind of action, in the mind of a weak insecure male, goes along with a constant mindfukin thought of “am i man enough”? When they dont realize that having that constant thought is wht makes them less men than guys of back in the days.
I'm telling you, 15 yrs later in 2022, this is STILL one of the best videos on RU-vid! Hope eli is koo in life, he legit made my day when I seen this yrs ago, an it still tickles me pink today! 💯🥰⚰️🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🎯😅
I think Eli is being spoken to by God, that's why he's always looking up. A mild torture, perhaps, but that is the burden that gifted humans face. Too bad most of us will never have the wits to recognize his literal skills, even with such a short example.
Sure, the rap was incredible. But seeing Marv-O and J-Dub express their love so openly was the *REAL* show. Ohhhhhhh, those big manly Marv-O arms. Makes me weak.
3:23 his ability to patternize the rhyme and rhythm was so funky you woulda thought it was a real ass song. Dude was ahead of his time because RAP back then was ahead of its time, he really grew up listening to the greats this man inherited the FUNK WITHIN HIM. I'm proud how he stood his ground reguardless of how funny this shit was, major props to his level headedness.
how the hell can you give this to Envy. Obvi premeditated, rhymed "cripple" with "cripple" despite being pre-written, and Eli straight slayed him with the Rosei O'donnell line. Eli 1-0 EZ. Who's next?
How the hell do you rhyme two words in the middle of your sentences? I walk down the road and see a dog looking at me So I picked up a toad and throw it at the moon I rhymed road and toad.
This is one of those rare videos that is just perfect in terms of its comedic elements. 15 years on and I keep coming back every time I think of this. On the real though, I think Eli honestly killed it considering his obvious disability. He should have won but the judges were probably insulted by his gay remarks.
Eli's rap verse was literally the greatest ive ever heard, this beats 2Pac, Biggie, Em, Dre, Cudi, Kanye, Nas, Tec9, Immortal Tec, Cube, literally every rapper that lived. Eli, you made the greatest verse ever, be proud of that.
you could actually tell that Eli is extremely intelligent ..based on his disability and his ability to come up with those rhymes off the top .. he deserved to win in my opinion.
Been watching this video for like 5 years, and the funniest thing about the video is the nigga standing behind the dude sitting in the chair sitting down with his hands all around his neck. WHAT THE FUCK BRUH?! LMAO.
Longboardlol mthzb He clearly wasn't using 'fag' in the UK sense. Also, if you both are getting all butthurt and offended over 'shithead' then *you need to get off the internet.* You took the liberty of insulting me first, so I took the liberty of taking it to another level. P.S. Why do you feel the need to make insults with penis related words? Cock on the brain much?
