Post a video response to display your battle techniques!!

Lyrics:
I cannot help but smile
as this child challenges the ancient
a David and Goliath situation except that in this case
David's Tykwon Flow is so formulaic
the average mc need only hold their nose to imitate it
now did you really think attacking velociraptor tactics
would make my techniques look weak?
you overlook the fact that the beasts I base these styles on
never really went extinct
i know you watch a lot of TV
but it seems to me you need step outdoors
or maybe just read a little more natural history
your style is so elementary
i mastered similar tactics way back in elementary
except even then
my first flows tore the limbs off my enemies
you talk just a little bit street
but it sounds to me like the only street
you ever really seen was Sesame
you're not even testin me
your frail skeletal structure gets crushed
by consecutive direct hits effortlessly
yes indeed
i focus the chi
float accross rhythms endlessly
while you joke like jackie chan
i train in depths Shao Lin like Jet Li
exceptionally practiced in attacks which
shatter skeletons to fragments deliverin
damage so rapid the fact is
my raps just cant be handled by little frat kids
while you scribble pitiful lyrics
my fists hammer commandments in stone tablets
and thats not even the half of it
I deliver nasty kicks
in beats I build around naturalistic
instrumental sampling
so that my music might live on
even after all you referential
Family Matters (Erkel) rappers stop mattering
sorry Trakz, I don't engage in rap battling
im waging a style war
with subject matter on the story line stompin as heavy as Titanosaurs
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanosaur )
these ancient forms resurrected in the rhythm
givenum the shivers
ooooh! its true what they say:
history is written by the victors
although i think thats just the loser's way of saying
The Historian is always victorious.

So I didn't have time to do this in time for Trakz official contest lineup, but I didn't care and I thought it would be fun to do anyway, so here it is... finally...

Good luck to Tykwon in the official contest.

  • awesome, I liked it! But taekwondo aint kung fu, and it aint chinese either, just pointin out

  • @NozmoMuzik

    i know.

  • You are fucking crazy. But it's the good kind of crazy. Does all this self meditation and wandering around help you with the music?

  • wandering results in thinking, thinking results in music, music results in more energy which allows for more wandering.

  • @HistorianHimself yo...i like this shit man!!!! where u from?
