@eldee

that is so funny and lyrically tite.

to be fair, there isnt one line on the 'big baby' diss that beats this one.

so sauce kid never was the best, if not ur ashewo sef, i would actually take sauce kid before M.I , dude is just enjoying the media attention and its only in nigeria a rap artiste becomes the best with 1 album. u have to wait for the following projects before u call them the best.

50cent,Game,young juc,Mims e.t.c would have being call the best cos they had a good debut album, but they all watered down cos they cant keep up with the hype and glory that came with the first album, so all u dickriding M.I shud just take it easy and lets see what happen next, u dont just a book by its cover, mediocrity at its best

tosinaded@:

Fixed!!!!

M.I. is the messiah of Naija hip-hop.
I saw one of his videos on Nigezie and this cat was ripping it like he shares DNA with Biggie Smallz.

U said u want an apple so i brought u a pair(pear)-M.I

True, M.i is dope, hot, the true hiphop messiah who Came to show us the way to God.
He shows us what God's plan that old testament dudes cuddnt get-He makes dudes listen(to lyrics).
He preaches some messages God's been preachin.
He's doin his thing and im luvin it, especially cos irrespective of wat hype men are sayin his humility
makes him acknowledge he the messiah, not the god.

Between, aint Mode continentally referred to as the God emcee?
Just wonderin.

The year is '94 and in my trunk is raw
In my rear view mirror is the mother fucking law
I got two choices yall pull over the car or
bounce on the double put the pedal to the floor
Now I ain't trying to see no highway chase with jake
Plus I got a few dollars I can fight the case
So I, pull over to the side of the road
And I heard "Son do you know why I'm stopping you for?"
Cause I'm young and I'm black and my hats real low
Do I look like a mind reader sir, I don't know
Am I under arrest or should I guess some mo?
"Well you was doing fifty five in a fifty four"
"License and registration and step out of the car"
"Are you carrying a weapon on you I know alot of you are"
I ain't stepping out of shit all my papers legit
"Do you mind if I look round the car a little bit?"
Well my glove compartment is locked so is the trunk and the back
And I know my rights so you gon' need a warrant for that
"Aren't you sharp as a tack are some type of lawyer or something?"
"Or somebody important or something?"
Nah I ain't pass the bar but I know a little bit
Enough that you won't illegally search my shit
"Well see how smart you are when the K-9's come"
I got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one

@everyone
what makes a fighter d best?His skill,strength.Wot makes an emcee best?Go ahead n tell me is by making popular raps i.e pop rap.Danceable raps.Its the ability of d rapper?Wot r the criteria to knw to best rapper?Is it ur lyrics or otherwise.Lyrics is the strength of a rapper.Mode is jst a case of a king is not respectd in his own land.Talib kweli had a freestyl wiv him,n said this guy got good metaphnrs.Remember kweli,the guy jigga said 'if skills sold,truth be told,i'd probably be,lyrically talib kweli.Jay also felt modes rhyme.Jungle brothers came down ere to see him,did 5 tracks wiv him. and for pentium ix should be called a classic by an intertanational medium.Mane this man is probably gonna be naija's greatest emcee of all time.If MI cant match mode lyrically,there's no way,i solo lyk isolo crooner is best.
@tosin
to me hiphop is dead n hiphop hardly exists in naija.I even rate sauce above mi,if u bring individual abilities mi cant match many rappers in naija.Dont lie,did u listen to eldee's return of the king album,tell me a track in that album that cant match mi's talk abt it,i hardly skip a track in return of da king.How come u ppl didnt call that album a classic.Una go dey make noise.Talk abt it didnt wow me,i sold it afta one play!Una dey shout.If that album is a classic here,it wil be elsewhere,i mean internationally(dem talk hiphop is universal)if na lie tell me why nas illmatic is a classic to u

I can show you 10 peops on this NL better than mode 9 in metaphors, wordplay and the other indices.
It is not about using metaphors/multis ALONE. . . .what about the delivery?
Mode-9 does not ride his beats and this is where he comes short of M.I. and Ruggedman.

@sauron
i read ur battles.I saw ur ability.Good.Abt delivery.Mode kinda flow was hot in mid 90's.Why i dig this guy is that he floated american underground rap in naija mainstream n he is audible,lyk when he flows fast.He does that without strain n doesnt go offbeat.His beats r mostly boom bap, His delivery aint so bad.He kinda changed his delivery in badman(v u listened), Be frank if we start puttin up his tyte lines his been doin frm malcolm ix tru mixtapes n now mode ova premo,stil dem never finish.Its gonna be a novel.Undisputed MI got an admirable voice n best rap styl.U can get attracted to d song by d voice.Check around lupe fiasco was said to v d best flow in d industry.2 classic albums.Bt neva been called best.He was jst tagged the leader of the new school, To be frank.I dont think i wont listen to rap again if jay,nas,game,eminem,lupe,kweli,kanye(think i can do witout him),papoose quits.I cant stand these new guys(they all sound alike).And most of the southern rappers are whack(i like luda n jeezy,ross cos of pot of miami sha).Well i dont think mi is best,rugged,mode,terry,freestyl,iceberg slim,pop off,ghetto p still dey.

I agree he floated the American underground rap in Naija mainstream but when it comes to the real business. . . .Mode-9 comes short.
His lyrics are tight on paper but he lacks the qualities of a good MC when spitting on the MIC.
I read about M.I's lyrical prowess on NL and i decided to give the cat a try. . . .I wasn't disappointed.

M.I. has the voice. . . .has a variety of styles when he flows and the most important thang is he rides his beats.
I have forgotten the name of this song(he was using other Naija artistes songs in various rhyme patterns). . .that song was tight.
You have to know when to add in a rhyme word, and where a word would fit better at. . . . .M.I. rode the beats and didn't let the beats take control.
Like when the snare hits, he'd say his rhyming word, and the next time the snare hit, he'd say the word that rhymed with it. . . . .If M.I. is Eminem, Mode9 is Obie Trice.

His beats r mostly boom bap, His delivery aint so bad.He kinda changed his delivery in badman(v u listened), Be frank if we start puttin up his tyte lines his been doin frm malcolm ix tru mixtapes n now mode ova premo,stil dem never finish.Its gonna be a novel.Undisputed MI got an admirable voice n best rap style.

Most of these "tight" lines have been punctured by smart listeners on NL.
He says some intelligent stuffs but sometimes his wording and majority of the stuffs he talks about don't hit hard/miss the mark.

Well i dont think mi is best,rugged,mode,terry,freestyl,iceberg slim,pop off,ghetto p still dey.

I disagree with you here. . . . .but we can always agree to disagree.

@sauron
bros,ppl get to pay too much attention to mode9 lyrics cos he's been acclaimed so lyrical.MI says rubbish too.Every1 is kinda guilty.No body is perfect u knw.U knw that am not a star,i'm a bigger planet than jupiter caused chaos in ere bt i read u guys comment,u guys erred too by usin mass to determine if planets r bigger than stars, when tryin to prove that shit was wrong.U might tip mi best,i respect that,bt i dnt think so,jst my opinion.We dont really knw u knw.Thats y i dnt say mode is my best.I dnt usually say mode is nigeria's best.The closest v said is he is probably the best.I jst kinda lyk how he uses samples.N his shit r always different frm wot otha nigerians serve. n get great reviews abroad too.i lyk mi too bt not dat mch.Wot kind of rap do u lyk.I jst love east coast cats raps

How do u determine "big" if not by length/surface area and mass?
Come on. . . . .everyone admitted Mode9 made a monumental goof when he spewed that.
Stars are bigger.

I like rappers i learn from. . . .Canibus, Eminem, and a handful of others.

@sauron
mode got me confused wit that line.I no go lie.I didnt actually knw wot he meant.Bt i knw stars are bigger.
i was studyin physics b4 transferin to mathematics/economics.Mass is the concentration of matter in a body.So mass determines how heavy it wil be.Surface area is the best criterion

'MI rode the beats and didn't let the beats take control'?

Since when does the word have to rhyme with the snare to give u extra points?

If you can do that as a rapper. . . . .U will have ma vote as the best.
That is what distinguishes a rapper from an EMCEE.
Most cats are just rappers cos they flow like they reading financial times but the real MCs take everything into consideration.
U have to know when to drop the rhyme. . . .it must tally with the snares to give a rhythmic flow.
Go and listen to Eminem on Patiently Waiting. . . . .
