cant agree wit u more.It's d iboboy just swingin' his lyrics,
no diss to any1 in particular.
IllBliss comes blunt wen he needs to address issues.
Pple just insinuate there's a diss on some1 cos they get a high kinda from it.
And yea, there's hate in NL, i see the way pple lacerate and curse not only themselves but even
parents in here, and these happen when it's not even a battle thread.
Now when pple hav no regards for parents im not shocked at the way shots are taken at artiste
who r just doin thier own things.It's in NL that pple who cant spit shit even wit phlegm in their
mouth pounce on a vet emcee and abuse(not criticize), insult them.

Yea, im feelin this track, it's hot and im luuuuvin it.

It's so lame, that interview was a weaklin' move. Rugged has been dissin M-9 hasnt he?.
Rugged was d one who asked for a blatant diss from M-9. M-9 gives him one and now he's acting busy?.
But when he did all his own disses and replys to Talkin to u and needed the help of Durella he wasnt busy?
Ok, he saw that Bangin wasnt as effective enuff to tackle Talkin to u so i guess his courage to reply DeathBlow is waverin.
Dont ask for war is u aint ready for war. And wat kind of a "celebrity" will call sm1 a bastard?

Diss is diss, but hurlin' abuses on interview is just so reflective of ones degraded mind.A big character flaw.
When M-9 was interviewed wat did he say?
He said "son disrespected me, , " he never used abusive language.
He knows it's a lyrical ishhh. U got probs enter the booth and prove urself.
When we battle in NL we say stuff, but outside NL battle cypher it will be lack of decorum to spew some stuff.

All the rantin bout money has always been it, and yea Ruggedy aint got much, from where?
How many of u here is wearing or wld wear a 20thSept clothes, i kno he rocks shows but
how many shows did he perform in this past year?.
How much does he command per show? What ads has he done for any major brand in 9ja,
wat endorsement? Outside 9ja shore wat has he done,is he recognised when other Hiphop artistes are doin stuff.

Now is there sense in the fact that a fellow artiste will fly M-9 to Italy and back and pay for accomodation, feeding and all
other expenses and pay him 100 waeva per show? Which fellow rap artist can do that as a business move talk less of as charity? Even Ruggedy who claims to be d highest paid rap artist and all the money he boasts about can he AFFORD to do that? Ruggedy is fast losin' ma respect for him. im so disappointed.

@\Saurove

M-9 is not famous beyond the shores of Nigeria.
I know this much. . . . .No one knows him in the UK.

jokes, got dudes there feelin him right there in the UK.
And cos YOU and maybe ur clique dont know him in Uk doesnt change the fact he's famous-
from Ghana, to SA, to Germany to USA, does it? Top rappers in those countries recognise him wellllll.

Naeto is a new kid on the block. . . . . Besides, people only diss who they consider threats to their throne.

Really? So Jayz was on throne and dissed Nas who is a threat, ok that's true.
Then i guess that means M-9 is on throne hence he dissed Ruggedy who is a threat,
except t'was ruggedy that started it, get ma drift? Didnt Suolja diss IceT?
Some enter the game with diss so ur "greeness" aint a factor.

Check your facts. . . . . .Naeto raps in mother tongue.
Kini Big Deal is American?? Or Walahi Talahi i am on fire is American way of rapping??

Kini Big deal as a line is not american, true but that was the hook,
does Naeto spit his verses in pidgeon or any local dialect? ohh ohhh,  tot as much.
And M-9 has been doin that even b4 Ruggedy started advocating is, he has lots of his song, hooks and
some line in local and pidgeon, even Ruggedy who is bein preachy bout it doesnt hav a much, tho he got
some pidgeons but i dont know of any actual mother tongue except Ruggedy Baba!

What Ruggedman is saying here is simple. . . . . . .As at 2003, the rap game in Nigeria was almost non-existent with wack rappers and chicken feed.
Now, there is liberty. U can be with any record label and blow up like nitro and still make money

.

And u think the credit goes to Ruggedy? I beg to differ. It wuldda happened with or without him.
It was just time for that genre to blow, period.
The industry was there, mind u isnt it that INDUSTRY that Ruggedy claims he cleansed, if it aint existing y clean it?
I knew M-9 before Ruggedy.
Ok lets say truly wacks were reignin then, the level has changed again and maybe Ruggedy that appeared wow then
aint no more wow and thus he's like the Eedris of 2008, dyu get.
There were those who hated Ruggedy for dissin eedris cos they were feelin the groove,
and movin to his ryhthm in clubs too. So i aint shocked at pple feelin same bout M-9 now.

Cats are working hard to make ends meet while the BOOM is here. . . . . .Mode-9 should catch that train before it's too late.
Eat what u can while the BOOM lasts and stop making diss tracks that would leave him poor when the BOOM turns to BUST.

Yes oooo, true talk, i hope he cashes out of it, cos he TRULY deserves it. Nothin more satisfyin than doin things how it shud be, not dumbin down 1 bit and being rewarded for it.
Nice one Saurone.
oNe

---I havent been bothered to listen to the track but thanks to Encomium I have read the lyrics.I will not waste an instrumental on replying his childish baseless words.I am too big and too busy to do thatwho is mode9?in his whole life in the industry,he hasnt been able to do anything for himself let aloneanybody around him.

But he cld "waste" instrumental on BANGIN and waste another artist durella on the hook??
Was he any bigger when he did waka waka,to whom it may concern, my life, Bangin'

, no,not on my part.if he wanted to hit fame so badly,all he had to do was meet people like me,D'Banj,2face,Naeto C ,infact all the successful artistes and ask to be shown the way instead of trying to beef.Beefing is old school,especially when you are beefing a rapper who is more successful than you in all ways,I am hoping its a strategy hes using and not jelousy really.he cant compare himself to me,I have more awards,rocked and still rocking more shows than he will ever do to date and I have been on a few shows he has been lucky to be a part of and seen how the crowd responds to him and that is when they do at all. i am on to bigger and better things because I have been able to achieve a lot for myself and people I have come in contact with.I have done more for the industry than any rapper out here now.Instead of him trying to do something positive that he will be remembered for he is trying to go the beef route, now that boys are making mad money from wahala moves I made years ago that revolutionized the industry and made it better.

I cant believe this! M-9 is already famous, even beyond the shores of this country. Which hiphop tread dyu open and his name doesnt come up? Props from the artistes we love, from Nas,Jayz, Talib, Wil-i-am, etc. How famous can one get.Wat addition will Ruggedy be to the list? So when Ruggedy dissed Eedris and co disin was fashionable Well as he said that meansRuggedy too was envious of Eedris and co way back cos they were gettin d money and rockin shows and clubs then.
Rugged didnt do jack if anyone did anythin t'will be edris and co, cos they vanguard the revolution of 9ja music.

5, maybe you unknowingly stepped on his toes.
, i did nothing of that such.The brother cannot understand why a rapper he thinks he is better than is moresuccessful than he is.He hasnt been able to achieve anything for himself or any of his crew to show for themany years he has been an artist and He hasnt had any hit track thats gotten into clubs and partys to get him high paying shows but Ruggedmans been getting them thanks to 'Baraje' and my other hit tracks

.

Who r the Ruggedy crew and what has HE done for them?? I think Naeto is more financially succesful than M-9 so y is M-9 not dissin him rather he gives him prop, M-i too got mad buzz and shows from late last year, yet M-9 gives him props so wat is ruggedy sayin? Rugged shud check himself o,this guy shuddnt make me dislike him joor, i hate lame weak ass excuses. Rugged had even fallen off, Deathblow gave him relevance.(note i said relevance) Who r the rap artist talked bout last year? Mi, M-9, Da grin, Naeto,Eldee etc,  Ruggedy wasnt on the radar sef.

7, but mode9 is a talented rapper doing his thing.

, I am sorry I have to say this but he went as far back as picking lines from my 1st album,meaning envy has been eating him up all this while.At least he got lines from my 1st album while I and a lot of people on the streets cant remember any from any of his albums/mixed tapes because they were all the same boring baseless battle raps that nobody really listens to[b].The only track that a few people are talking about on his album now is the one he kind of directed at me.Remove that one and their is nothing else.I still dont understand why wonder rapper is still too lilly livered to mention my name in any of the 8 or 9 tracks he has been directing at me all this while.he is talented?[/b]Most of his friends who used to do rap all American style have seen the light and switched their game to using our local lingua like I preached in my award winning track Ruggedy Baba and its working for them.Six Foot Plus,Obiwon and even Ilbliss got a great track in 'You Go Wound o' when he mixed it up with pidjin.it is only a stubborn fly that will be buried with the corpse.

LMAO soo he listened to bout 8-9 tracks and didnt hear his name, but th one that hit hard he claims he didnt listen to??
Ok watbout d 5-6 that Ruggedy dissed M-9 on, this dude is a load of contradictions. And the award winnin Cry came out b4 Ruggedy's album so wats d rantin' for? JayZ went into Nas earlier tracks too so wat point is he tryna make?
And wat arrogance, wat does he mean by they've seen the light, this dude believes if u dont do it like he said in "his book of rap law" hiphop 101(shud be called pop 101 or dumb down 101) u cant be fulfilled?Mi aint doin mother tongue o, and dude is blowin up, Naeto aint either so how relevant is this claim?

And the rest is same i got more money blah blah blah.
And M-9 has a house with a studio in a room that he calls Room 9
Guys, i like objective discussion.
Ruggedy has been dissin M-9 all along, he did a reply to Talkin to u, he asked that M-9 shud come more direct, he asked for it hence the openin of deathblo-"[b][/b]i didnt wanna do this, now see wat u did to u" and all of a sudden you that u asked for it u r now toooo busy sayin it's childish
I'm more than disgusted at the inconsistency of Ruggedy, really. if u aint ready for wr dont ask for one.

blinx:
Mode 9 Rugged didn't want to do this but now look at what u've done to u. Bangging was a decoy, the real shit is yet to come.
I tire for naigerians. If Rugged had been evasive in his response some wont be happy especially he's hard core fans and some will say he's even far more scared of mode than u thought. Now that he is direct u say he's being personal and all that. You say he cant diss mode back yet he's busy granting interviews. Rugged as a smart artist knows the power of the press. If he refuses to grant an interview, they'll finish him in the press. Besides he advised artists to do alot of interviews in his hip hop 101 lecture. The guy try abeg. He cant please every body. Rugged is not even playing dirty yet, at least he has not let out all of mode's dirty little secrets, like the artist of the 100 euro show bill. I believe he has enough stuffs on mode to make a good diss track. I'd have said that Rugged was being too boastfull in the interview but common, he's a rap artist and that's what they do. Another thing, MI was proping Mode in the last WAPI at abuja but i wonder what will be going on in his mind right now that he is busy rocking show and Mode is not.

Where hav u been since late last year in this country??

Taurusbull:
Now wait a minute, is there something wrong with doing a melodious song and put your darn tight lyrics on it? There's nothin wrong with it, it's just that he can't and he can't deal with it [/b]and that's what u guyz fail to realize. [b]There's no artist on earth that came into the industry without the primary aim to make plenty of money like a true talented star. Mr. DBR would u mind excludin Nas from the above list? Nas in his prime sold 'milyins' and we're still waitin for Mode to be in his prime unless this is the best he can do. Eminem dropped more punch lines in the movie 8mile than in most of his CDs. u hear him rappin 'bout what the people love to hear like talkin about his misdemeanour, shenanighans, dizzin his mum and hoes and not dropin lines that makes u wanna flip open a dictionary to decipher a code, is Eminem wack?
Rap is a genre of music, music is entertainment. I am buyin ur CD for u to entertain me and not to teach me figures of speech. There's a thousand books out there I may find handy if I need to upgrade my downgraded brains and as a matter of fact, mode dont have what I need. Have u heard M.I? he's got style, have u seen Naeto on stage? Damn, this boy flows 'seamlessly like a seamstress' LOL. If mode is not here to sell records or to entertain, then what's he here for, to impress the press? even Naeto C is catchin more fans so fast. What could be more borin than watchin Mode on stage? I'd rather be @ home watchin Kung fu Panda  (Mayne, I love that movie)

Now, don't get me wrong, I like mode and I like Rugged too and I know y'all, I mean you all liked/loved Rugged until mode 9 fell outta the sky and suddenly u guyz realized that Rugged is a complete Joke and mode 9 'walks on water'.
I ain't demented and I ain't arguing but debate is healthy.

@
TAURUSBULL
dunno how to start here but lemme try like this:
1- the list in which i had Nas is not for sales but airplay, that was d discussion-Airplay not Sales.
    But still comparatively, even tho Nas is rated the most lyrical he aint sellin as much as Jay, Lil wayne, is he?
    And M-9 stated from onset that he's in this game 1st for the love and ANYTHING that he gets out of it is 2ndary.
And we have lots of such in different fields of life, especially in the arts.
2-Yea, u were right about the doin the melodious beats and puttin tite lyrics on it, howeva if u r really rooted
   in music u'll know that there are beats associated wit certain genre, u can actually funkified classical music
   or country music, or jazz only that it siezes to be and alters wat the intent of those who started that genre envisaged.
Get ma drift? Case in point auto-tunes, crunking, have u heard Qjones funkified Handel's Halleluyah chorus? Sounds
interesting but dyu think Handel will think it's a wonderful Clasical renditon? NOPE.
   It's easy to get tite beats, easier to get than to get tite lyrics, so dont say HE cant, u get?
   Eminen on 8miles and some lyrical guys can move pple and sales cos majority of them know wat HIPHOP is,    they        LISTEN  to lyrics, they kno the things to look out for, and believe me club banger is d last thing on a avid hiphop lover's mind when listenin to hiphop music.

That said u contradicted ur self alot in ur post with the list of M-9's lines u posted.
Your post says, m-9 can put his TITE LYRICS, but said he aint got wat u want?
All M-9 fans listen to him cos of that, not because he's wow on stage, not because he flows masterly but
wat he's got he's got and that is lyrics, those metaphs,puns,vocab, and dont berate vocabs cos
even on that Saurone wont agree witya
U gave Kudos to Em for spittin lots of punchline on 8miles, not neccesarily musical or melodious beats but lyrical
u mentioned that understandin M-9's lyrics at times needs  flippin tru DICTIONARY to decipher,
yet u later said they are his lines are flop lines that ur LIL NEPHEW can decipher!, let me not push that cos i dont diss,
or insult pple but u just gave those who love to abuse an opportunity to to that wit such a line.
Mnwhile dyu know how old those lines are? When they dropped way back jaws were and even still droppin.
And pls tell me the lines that makes no sense(to u).

For me M-9 didnt just fall out of d sky, i knew him b4 Ruggedy.
And yea Ruggedy was impresive when he started but for the cheddas
and to "secure his future" he dumbed down, no problem, it's his choice.stil like him tho, but lyrically i'll go wit m-9.
AND YEA I LUVE KUNFU PANDA TOOOOO

~Sauron~:
TBH, i didn't even know Ruggedman's album copped the best album of the year or Mode9 won the lyricist of the year.
All i am saying is. . . . . .I know Ruggedman has got talents and he has several styles of doing his thingy. . . .Mode9 is monotonous.
I was listening to Ruggedybaba with 9ice the other day with Rugged flowing seamlessly like a seamstress. . . .Thatz an art.
If he decides to reply Modenine. . . . .People would change their stance again.
Naija underdogs will always believe M-9 has punchlines n dope rhymes but i am yet to see the so-called punches.


They have different styles. . . . . . .Letz analyse like intelligent folks here.
Rugged started as a Militant. . . . .He stepped on toes, he was angry, ornery and the hunger to succeed was there.
Even with that, people still criticised his style as being too violent and i remember the media saying he was a cultist.
Now, he's gone commercial to rake money in and people are still on his ass to keep his military mind. . . .What do y'all want??

We should not also forget Ruggedman coulda been raised in dire n abject poverty which makes CASH his ultimate goal.
He has 2 choices. . .To keep on battling ceaselessly and forgo the cashflow OR to keep doing pop music(which majority wants) and keep making cash.
Only Ruggedman can decide which path to follow. . . . .Ma point is. . .should he decide to go pop, it wouldn't be because he has got no lyrics.
It means he is doing to keep himself afloat financially(which u cannot blame him for if u consider his background).

Like the OP stated. . . . . .He asked why the old Ruggedman has metamorphosed from a Battle MC to a Pop artiste.
Rappin is a talent. U might go off-form but it doesn't leave you as an individual.
That ruggedman has changed his styles does not mean he has lost his roots/orientation with HIPHOP.
He is only making sure his future is forever secure. . . . .All Rappers go through this phase. To stay commercial OR to remain underground!!!

Ma man Saurone, u r on point. All wat u said i understand and agree with.
Rugged can as they say "dumb down" all he wants, or do pop, yes,
howeva the issue is dont do pop and claim to be king of hiphop.
Dont say to make it in 9ja u MUST speak mother tongue and do club tracks.
Especially when we hav different interpretation of "makin' it"
And i'v always wondered bout the motha tongue thingy-is pigeon english
mother tongue? I think M-9 even has the real MuthaTongue stuff more than Ruggedy.
Yes i agree M-9 can be kinda monotonous with his flow, but that changed in his last album PS.
Ruggedy to me has cool flows, and has the right to go commercial, howeva what we all sayin here
is flow or no flow, commercial or not, pop or hiphop, monotonous or dynamic, LYRICS is LYRICS
and when u place their lyrics side by side it's so glarin that M-9 got it on locks!

Listen to Ruggedy even in his Warring and fierce days and listen to M-9 "Malcom iX"
and u'll see that M-9's puns, similes, in-rhymes, multies, metaphores, and vocabs
are way beyond the level of Ruggedy's, he's not even in contention.

Stylee to me aint a typical M-9 thingy-
listen to his verse in
"the way" on his Orisuna experiment mixtape
"fire burn" ft Blacksolo in same mixtape
Check "M-9 on dj premier" tracks.
Check tracks like "Unformidable", "contradiction", "360degree poetry",
"Orisuna Basement Freestyle", "Quest Media Freestyle","miasmamixtape". this guy works!

Now Saurone u may still feel u r better than M-9 and i dont have a prob. wit that
but if u say he's not lyrical then i guess all the other rappers are bunch of ninnies blabbin'
away or at best "just micrphone testin".

That shit was mad funny on TV, i just thought I had to put it in there but I could have worded it better tho. Rushed it.

Yea, i guess so.
U know there r some lines i see dudes drop and i'll be like---damn!
i had a line just like that, lol.
This was how i flipped mine:

was goin blah blah blah then i spat-ma intel so high i aint at the level same as U
                                                  so ma preference aint to verberlly or lyrically aim at you
                                                  if u were ma target i'll rather get a reporter's shoe and aim at u

~Sauron~:
Please print Mode9's best piece lyrically and i will analyse it bar by bar.
What is lyrical about Mode9?? It seems u have been so used to CRAP, ur senses have been beclouded.

Dude! C'mon Saurone, im sure u just havin fun wit this
But seriously if the Ruggedy's award as the Best rap album of the year is a valid one
dont u think the same award for M-9 as the lyricist of that same year is valid.?
M-9 is the major reason Y cats put in work in their lyrics.
Dont u hear rappers flaunt that their lines are as dope as M-9? Their puchline hittin u like M-9's?

Really, by ur own standard can say M-9 aint lyrical, u have the prerogative to do that.
But when u pitch M-9 against Ruggedy lyrically and rate Rugged better is the one i find ridiculous.
Even Ruggedy doesnt think he is.
Simple way out- Drop some Ruggedy's sick lines and analyse like u say u wanna do M-9's
That may just convert non-believers of which i'm one .

@
blinx
u missed ma point totally.
Yea i kno braggin and tough-talkin' is part of hiphop
but ma attention is drawn to the attitude displayed.
Afterall Illbliss is a hiphop artiste too, He didnt have
to say wat he said bout Ruggedy, he didnt have to
give him the props, but he did. That's hw u know
who's trash talkin cos of the game and who does it cos
as inherent attitudinal flaw, IMO
oNe

When a, artiste says of another artiste-"he's a milestone, "
that is props witout an iota of jealousy or beef.
When that same artiste now says the artist he gave props to is
talkin trash bout him better believe he knows wat he's sayin.
I listened to a radio interview smtime ago and wat Ruggedy had
to say was-"if they are angry cos he's makin more than them, 3rd
mainland bridge is there they shud go and jump in"
U can see 2 different attitudes in display.
When i'm at liberty to the entire truth will be shared.
Nice 1 khanyeezy.

Taurusbull:
Relax Sauron, only a few people knows you have sense. They all prefer M-9 to Rugged, let them be, it's their choice but I just realized that Mode Nine has more fans on Nairaland than on da streets where he really should be making it. I'm not sure Rugged will reply Mode cos he already did the song 'Won't Battle' feat C-mion but if he does reply, expect something better than Death blow, that's one thing I can guarantee anytime anyday and it will enjoy more air play and it will hit the streets hard cos doing songs that pleases the ear is what Mode don't have and that's where Rugged rocks

, off the box, which song is mode nine's best? Honestly I'd like to know

@
TaurusBull

1- that he wont reply cos he already did "wont battle" will be a weak excuse.
Did he not do "to whom it may concern"? did he not do " My life"? wat bout "waka waka"?
Rugged responded to M-9's "talkin to you" with "Bangin' didnt he?
so i say that is not a valid point.He asked for a blatant diss, now he got it, he is "duty bound"
to honorably respond to it. Once he does then the issshhh is just beginning.

2- That we shud expect sth better than Death blow if he replies? Yea, i hope so too
im waitin for him to up his game, lyrically that is. So if he come with sth better that
is good for the game, tho it means Deathblow 2 will be more fierce too.

3- Now u guys keep gettin it wrong. Enjoyin air play (especially in 9ja) aint the sign that u are ill,
it just says you r more commercial enuff to enjoy more airplay.
Believe me artists like crooked i, Royce5'9, Skyzoo, Punchline, Nas, Talib, Peterock
dont enjoy more airplay than 'em Souljaboy,Bow wow, Nelly, and the likes. And we know
it's not cos the latter is doper.
So for me the criteria for judgin if Ruggedy's response is better is the LYRICAL dexterity.
Not the beat, not a catchy hook, not even the delivery this time around, but the lyrics.
And may the best man, lyrically win.


Finally im sure M-9 has different "best song" it depends on individual.
So back atya like a boomerang, which is Rugged's best song??
oNe

Funny enuff i knew M-9 before Rugeddy.
Maybe in 9ja circle Ruggedy is more popular, but
internationally M-9 cuts it.
C'mon guys, the rappers we respect as idols in Hiphop
have all given props to M-9.
From Nas, to Talib, to Jay, from SA Proverbs give props,
from Ghana Reggierockstone, international DJ's, producers
send beats to him so he can bless it with his lyrics.
i dont know y anyone wuddnt see all this as plus.
If M-9 does sth, haters go like-soooo, wetin dey dat one,
who neva do am b4. But if it's Ruggedy it's worth celebrating?
I love the two guys, but when i say Hiphop/lyrical wise M-9
is better it's cos it's the truth.
And this can be proven; compare line for line and the truth screams
out to the fact.
Talib is regarded as a sound/tite hiphop artist, im sure he aint makin so much dough
he aint even so much in the new. Im sure number wise Soulja boy has more fans than him
but does that change the fact that he's an icon, a more respected hiphop cat?
oNe

~Sauron~:
I don't want him to REPLY. . . . . .Modenine is not worth the STRESS.

Well ur opinion, but i think M-9 is a worthy adversary

Who knows Modenine?? Ruggedman has been topping the Apple/i-tunes charts since early 2006.
I only saw Modenine's video late LAST YEAR when Hi-TV copped a channel on SKY.
Before then, he was non-existent.

Saurone, u still talkin sales as benchmark, which doesnt really show u r more talented.

Are u really saying if Ruggedman does not reply his street credibility has been decimated??
How can?? U don't reply every cat n dog that blabs their mouth.
Did 50 cent reply Eedris??

HAHHAAA, D emoticon u used here tells me alot, lol

Rakim and Nas are in the USA. In em countries, no one gives a Bleep about the dough u hold.
In Naija, money is the name of the game.
Don't even compare both worlds. They differ by miles.

Well Saurone, there are loads of pple in same 9ja who r not fallin for the Jacobs u wear, ur dubs,
and the size of ur account.Those who still believe in u doin u and reppin for the love of the game.

Write more like M-9 with when i DISS-A-BABA, i am not talking Ethiopia??
U have just insulted me.

Hahaaaa, i knew u'l say that , again!, lol  
But really that line Baba this baba that was like the rap quote for 2008.

I monitored hiphop on different threads and that line Baba this baba that,  is rated tight.
U and dammiecool are the only 2 i'v seen so far with different opinion.
But man saurone i will like to know what the issue is with M-9, lets put his beef with ur guy Rugged aside.ok?

~Sauron~:
I am not expecting any track from Ruggedman to diss Modenine.
There's no point replying Modenine. . . . .Modey is just an attention seeker, lemme diss the best in the game to get some recognition.
Biggie never replied when 2Pac was making a nuisance of himself talking about fucking someone's wife(which he never did).
Has that reduced Biggie's legendary status?? Nope. Biggie coulda replied 2Pac in Life After Death album but he did not and still sold more albums.
If i were Ruggedman, i would just concentrate on pleasing my die hard fans and strive for the best.
Mode9 can never ever be as rich n famous as Rugged. . . . . . .That ALONE is enough proof to tell who is the GREATEST.

Ma man Saurone,
1- Ruggedy can decide to reply or not to.
2- M-9 dissin Ruggedy for recognition? Dude is well recognized. I kno u only say that as a diss tho.
3- The way Ruggedy can pls his DHFans is to do wat he's known for way back, go hard.
The only problem is when/if he does that he'ld have justified the reason M-9 been throwin subs at him.
Which is rugged dumbed down. He went from "for those who say i dont have a dance track" to being
the king of the dance track and that is not wat his DHfans want.
4- Rakim aint as rich as Weezy, Nas aint as rich as Jay either. So dont think that ALONE is how to tell who the GREATEST is.

Now personally, like i said b4, u r a brilliant writer, ur last battle wit Ibeme again attested to ur lyrical prowess, and when i read ur stuff i cant understand y u rate Ruggedy over M-9 cos u write more like him(M-9), yea yea i know u say u betta but really dude,wats up?

It’s the final LAP but ‘MailWANK’ is still on ‘shuffle’ like an ‘iPod’, just running on empty battery
'Achilles' (I-kill-his) clan's ankles till they dangle, so im not the one getting ‘de-feeted’ verbally
This ‘MALC’ loves to receive SPAM (sperm) MAIL up the arse via ‘SPECIAL DELIVERY’

Got you taken aback at this scathing attack, you gasp at the collapse of ur raps in my grasp
Sit ur ass down and BUCKLE up cuzz only time u STRAPPED is to the car seat when u relapse

I hate to be insensitive with the way im killing ur self esteem cuzz suicide is what ma rhyme’s preach
When you ‘kick the bucket’, they gon’ blame it all on me for abusing my rights-n- freedom of speech

Stab this ‘bulls eye’ with a ‘dart’, rip out his ‘heart’ and tear his ‘chamber’ apart like he got ambushed
Then watch me throw some shoes at this gay like the Iraqi journalist did to George .W. Bush

Inject u with ‘DISS’-TRESS while I ‘rest n erect’ on ur MISTRESS to inspect her potential sex prospect
So I flick quick quips at d chick’s clit, now she calls me a distinguished ‘cunnilinguist’ with due respect
Chamotex will have you decked; this is a mismatch like putting an ANOREXIC in a ‘pie-eating-contest’

I’ll imbibe and ride every bride in ur tribe, but I don’t wana ‘borrow-ur-bride’, just wana ‘swallow-ur-pride’
Imma throw you off a ‘plane’ with your hands and feet tied, bitch go ahead . . . . . ‘sky dive’!

Im deleting this junk with immediate effect, he couldn’t beat me even if I typed my verse in reverse
U’ve got no chance even tho u Bleep ass and suck so much cock that ur dickriders will vote in advance

Contrary to ma xpectation i think Chamo got this locked down.
Started kinda unsure but dude u got fiercer toward the end of the verse.
Nice. Well done.
I had a line bout the "shoe at Bush" too, too bad u beat me to it, lol
I go with Chamo on this.

tangent:
versus

pre-written(ibime) versus  freestyle(sauron). i will have to give it to sauron. he came up with his piece within one hour.

Duhhhh, so who say Ibeme cuddnt have pre-written his lines within an hour?
Tite stuff Saurone n Ibeme.
Kinda diffy for me to chose tho but lookn closer i'll go wit ibeme.
Mature, clean, more wit. Some 4 to 5 lines of Saurone were kinda cheesy
and i quote:
Your wifey’s a LovePeddler, bent over getting bleeped on all fours
I’m humping her sore cunt till it’s coarse, then i Bleep her some more
Pull out and watch more shit fly than some plumbers at war
I’d love to remorse, but i’d rather open her mouth for my bundles of joy

i know all if fair in love n WAR but hey,
Nonetheless, Sauron vs Ibeme, i guess i'v seen the finals already!
Weldone guys.

Sisi Jinx:
Oh my God. . .IBK speaking of corny, seizure inducing lyrics, Here's my all time fav from RUNWAY


If I could pick a day to run away I'd surely pick a Sunday
Cos the angels would be totally there at the disposal of you and me
The reason I need the angels to talk to you for me is that you're my angel
So maybe you will understand the angels when they tell you how I feel

I was like. . . They have got to be joking. . .

"Pick the angels to talk to you and the reason the angels can talk to you is because you're my angel and you will understand when the angels speak?" 

Jeebus! What the eff


I like Iya Basira sha

U gotta be kiddin me here.
There's nothin corny or literarily weak bout that.
C'mon cut 'em some slack, tho truly they kinda fell off.       
But see, most guys call their gurls angel.
Sayin  he'l get an angel(real) to talk to her is just
butressin the fact tht he sees his gurl as an angel(alias)
U dont need to be a student of literary appreciation to get it.

Plus, that genre is not really recognised for heavy lyricism
as expected in hiphop.

Must y'all always cuss n abuse to make a point?

don't get it twisted like braids, u'r the next 'big brother' gettin evicted, i stays .  . /
to give caution like signs on high-ways/it's either destruction or d!%k give me my space/

I F with this.
Me like the multies too.
This merked competition, who's that?

Tell me, and i rellay want you to tell me what you gain after you listen to a modenine song. Ofcos he gives you all the jaw dropping metaphors. which is the point i am trying to point out. After the metaphors, what do you gain.

@
kay29000
So, if u gain nothin from the one regarded as the best lyricist,
tell me what do u GAIN from listenin to M.i, Naeto, and the rest
who are nonetheless good but aint as deep lyrically as him?

Back to the topic jorrr, yea M.i is blazin hot right now, definately one of the best.

The 2nd Round


Chitty chitty bang bang, I'm coming like a chain gang
From out of Sang Sang to make your motherfucking brains hang
Try to diss me, then you'll enlist for the stiffs

Lalabio is short like a dwarf
i'm big like a giant
Lala sounds like a Malam
he moves like teleturbies

When everybody else is sitting
So who's the next man to hit? I slip in a banana clip
And I hit, come and get your bandana split
Shit, Bleep, bitch who's the snitch? (Sauron)

No question I'm buckwild, I'm killing rappers executioner style
Hanging motherfcukers with a mic cord
I'm a rap lord, lala always get me bored
With a nine (M.9), what up nig? You must be out of your fucking mind . . . .
