Red Bull EmSee Battle: DNA vs. FowL
Tuesday, August 31 2010 10:33 AM EST | Posted by: B.Dot | Posted in: Blog, FocusHere’s footage from the final round of the Red Bull EmSee Battle competition in Detroit last week. Albeit home court advantage, FowL was crowned the winner after DNA threw in the towel. There’s no quitting in hip-hop!





Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
Lol, totally unfair.
Damn that detroit crowd didnt let him rap lol o well,,,,,,,,,,Eminem keep doing big things The GOAT
THIS IS HIP HOP.
To be Honest this dude FowL was garbage and would not beat DNA in a URL or GrindTime Battle. Like t was really wack to me but eh
Although, I do understand the crowd thing but them MF’s would have done the same thing in New York.. and DNA.. eh you should have stayed on stage man
hahaha that shit was crazy
Yo that prolly started cryin’ when he got outside.
Detroit ain’t BET they ain’t gotta let u finish if u wack!!!
“That nigga said if u from the 313 wave and ya hands and follow me!!!”
And then the nigga tried to say it again!!!
That shit was mad funny!!!
*Yo that nigga prolly started cryin’ when he got outside.*
HAHAHA CLEARLY a bias crowd!!
*FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS THE OWNERS OF GRINDTIME & COMPETED IN THE REDBULL EMSEE COMPETITION*
I agree that the crowd was crazy biased…. but EVERY round DNA spit in the “finals” (including in his NY division win) was written. He never said anything personal to his opponent… nothing but generic “i’m better than you because…” or “Since Shady’s here….” type stuff that works for anyone. His wordplays were dope but I know for a fact that there are only a handful of MC’s that freestyle at THAT level and if you ask anyone who is in the battle scene…. they’ll tell you that DNA is not one.
He was smart about saying things like “Your first rounds was written, so i’ma freestyle on ya” to avoid suspicion but even that was written cuz you then see him go for the 313 line which would ONLY work if he had the crowd eating out of his hands (and preferably if he was from the D lol). This means that when he wrote, he was betting on everyone digging his 1st round and that he could grab the crowd that way… if he was freestyling, he would have never attempted it since he could feel that the crowd wasn’t on his side.
Oh well, CONGRATS TO FowL…. but the BEST freestyler in that competition was Jonny Storm and I hope there’s footage up somewhere so i can find out why he didn’t get past round 1.
*the best freestyler in the building that night (possibly including Eminem) was Madd Illz but he already slaughtered this competition before it blew up and is sponsored by Redbull.
Fuck freeworld!! 313 lol the crowd have been watching 8 mile to much, looked like a good night.

This nigga said
“EVERYBODY FROM THE 313, PUT YOUR HANDS UP AND FOLLOW ME”
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Nigga you from NY, ain’t nobdy tryna hear that bullshit.
For those of you saying FowL is garbage, you’re being proven wrong as you read this. He’s currently making moves out in Cali w/ Shady records as a result of winning the battle. He’s also dropping his next mix-tape #GoodVibes on May 19th. I’d like to see more of him on Rap Radar , his last tape, Live From The D , was really slept on. He’s a lyrical prodigy and if he signed with Shady, Em and possibly Royce now, could mold him into a truly phenomenal mainstream rapper.
