Big thanks to DIZ, LUSH UNO &, NO JUMPER for having me. GOD TIER!!!

Diz and Lush have a great chemistry, you can tell they have spent so much time together and are really good friends which reflects in their interviews 👌🏼 really enjoying these podcasts so far, shout to Adam22 for giving them a platform

This is soooooooooo dope for anyone into underground hip-hop.... Damn I want this podcast to do numbers.

Real battle rap fans remember when Diz battled NoCanDo on grind time. Classic battle. Same card as Ness Vs Iron Solomon which is another classic

YOOOOO this Podcast is fire...No Jumper is killin it lately and doin it for the culture ..and this proves it

I didn't know it was possible that I could have a new favorite podcast that barely started in 2022 but here we are!!!!

Listening to people talk about battle rap from back in the day is the greatest shit ever . Thank you nojumper for taking the culture seriously giving these guys a platform to get this history out

Nocan winning scribble in '07, with that crazy last line, was a big reason why I got into the WRC's.. to watch more of him.. Fresh Coast Legend!

NoCanDo was a hugely influential artist to me back in 2008, even besides battlerap. One of my favorite battle rappers of that era.

🔥 🔥 🔥 interview! 3 legends from the battle rap Era Dizaster, Lush Uno & Nocando!

God Tier and Sharp Tank are in my top 5 podcasts of all time. For a battle rap fan this podcast is even more special.

This episode touched a deeper side of things. Im really enjoying these.

Nocando wasn’t telling lies .. he actually won a Bong at my “Rhyming For Respect” Freestyle Battle in 03’ along with $200 Cash & a Tattoo Shop Gift Certificate for a free Tattoo.

Impatient EP was such an influential project for 16/17 year old me as an artist. Discard My Arms and Where The Argument Starts feat Intuition were blueprints for me.

This podcast is such a treat to og battle rap fans. Please keep it going

For anyone new watching, these two had one of the most intense rap battles ever.

I feel like watching Dizaster, Nocando and Dumbfoundead come up back in the early 2000s with the fresh coast movement was crazy... These guys have come such a long way from battling for free in a cypher outside project blowed

No Can Do is a legend! We needa bring bacc Scribble Jam and WRC!

This is what I’ve been waiting for. Since I was 15 watching this foo at the blowed. Been waiting for him to get more shine.

Diz Vs Nocando was always one of my favorites, cool to see these guys in a room together after all these years

Why nocando sitting like he owns no jumper

Love to see these legends here I was starting to give up on no jumper but now it is officially the coolest podcast

Bro this made me feel way older than i thought i was.

You can tell Dizasters overly dramatic ass chose the title of this video

They're shining light on all the battle rap legends. The culture stays winning.

The fact that Nocan would consider battling again!.tHats epic..would love to see him on GTX!!!

Nocando is a Los Angeles legend! Low end theory was such a major part of my life. Learned a lot from watching this dude just host and spit freestyles when he felt like it

Y'all need Nems on the podcast

Nocan vs Dizaster was one of my first battles

Shout out to y'all from San Diego. Good to see y'all doin it. Been getting down for 20 yrs and still...

Thesaurus and Illmac vs Jimmy and Diz would go crazy!

Another dope episode. I remember Diz from the days of The Pit. Nocando had a few legendary battles on that stage. Him vs daylyt is probably the craziest clash of styles in battle rap I ever heard and that battle is hella ahead of it’s time. Side note. If nocando were to come back, him Vs Frak would be crazy. Also just clicked his latest project. Big Lost is dope 🤝

anyone remember which battle NoCan predicted his name being rhymed from the crowd.? i think it was an Anecdote from NZ on grindtime battle

Diz & Nocan v Saurus & Illmac on GTX. 🔥🔥🔥

It’s crazy I met all these dudes on the balcony where billy boondocks and disaster fought😂😂 rap rap rap

Dizaster bein a good Listener. Now this I like.

Nocando had an impromptu battle at our job at lunch one time. the business folks thought it was an actual fight and called the cops. shit was bonkers

Love this pod

The coolest Battle Rap Podcast in the world!

Bring my boi ILLMACULATE on here from my hometown I'd love to see that one

Ohgeesy needs a interview on this .... Talk bout Graff n the whole LA scene

Man one of the first battles I watched when I was way young was that match at Grizzlemania or one of those events where Nocando and Dizaster battled. Shit was so fucking legendary..

This dude is one of the dopest freestylers out . When he beat Franco

Diz said RIP Flawless 🤣🤣🤣

nocando is a real LA legend

I don’t even watch battle rap and nun of that BUT MAN THE VIBES ARE OFF THE CHAIN 🔥🔥💯

Great podcast! Would love to see NoCan make a return!

Now I'm expecting diz and nocan in a 2on2. That would be the best shit EVER

NoCanDo is a fucking legend crazy rhyme skills man, fuck.

20 mins in, but enjoying this episode already 🔥👏👏🔥

Didn't you had a show for battle rap legends!!! This. Is dope. Never a big disaster guy I always rooted against him but he is definitely a legend in that game.

Sooooooooo happy to see Nocando!!! One of the best and most talented cats

2 on 2 possibilities... Theo and Illmac. Heartless and Con. Who else? QP and anybody. Day and anybody...

Pass and now Nocan. Putting on battle raps legends. Salute God tier poscast

God Tier Podcast is important. Y'all don't see it yet.

Yo I love this God tier podcast cuz I am a battle rap fan before all... But I really think lush one should be a guest on disconnected as a guest one day I think him house phone and the rest of the crew would be hilarious as fuck
