Dizaster's Southpole shirt helps date this lol

damn i miss the days in high school when i'd watch these religiously

Thesaurus has always looked 39.

I miss this Dizaster, yea he's still aggressive, but he doesn't look furious or like he's on coke; he looks like he's having fun, and that's what battle rap should be.

i cant stop laughin at the "myspace" link at the bottom lol

legendary battle!

I love how Diz goes "oooohh that was racist" and then years later he brings the most savage racist bars of all time. Diz has grown so much since this, Thesaurus was such a bigger name at this time... Wild

You know it's 2008 when everyone is wearing echo and southpole lol.

Damn both these dudes have came a long way in battle rap.

To think that was six years ago.. fuck time goes quick

Diz has come a long way

"Until he came to the battle in a black shirt.....with a little orange underneath it." That line won him the battle, Peter underestimated and paid the price. Big ups to diz!

This battle was sort of a landmark in battle rap... One of The Saurus' very first loss. It shocked a LOT of people. LOL.

I remember watching this forever ago, everyone looks so young. This was the first the suarace battle I saw and one of the first Diz battles I saw. Both game so far.

Good times, man, good times..

The Saurus was fucking great back in the day, dizaster had a slow start but came with fucking fire, but i gave it to The Saurus, the bonus round i give to dizaster but since The Saurus was killing him all rounds lyrically he killed dizzy just because diz rapped faster doesnt knock down whole hearty nutrition bars vs diet bars no calories

Dizaster took this battle and became a hometown hero. His creativity stole the show.

dam ive been watching these old grindtime classics forever haha

This is by far one of the funniest battles i saw

You know its 2008 when they talking about myspace lol

Diz won!!

this is my first diz battle, i ever saw classic shit miss these grindtime days... where two mcs could rap and have a good time, now days shit is too intense and personal... no fun anymore just people want to ruin others careers.... classic shit one of the best ive seen .

lol that battle was awesome. fun to watch these guys go at each others throats. 2 of the best

To summarize Dizaster: "Hey yo, hey yo!"

"the saurus murdered that packie" LOL.

Best battle I have watch

this is one of my favourite battle two legends

Its 2017, and to this day I think Saurus beat Dizaster in 3. BUT If i remember correctly, this was Dizaster's first Grindtime battle and they were hype to see him and dickriding his antics.....the OT was well deserved though, but Saurus shouldve won nonetheless. Dope battle tho

The saurus For sure. Dizaster aint even on hommy hom's level.

Now that was a legend battle right their. Good shit

This is actually legendary.

Damn Lush has gone down hill since these days…This is Lush (skip to a new KOTD video) and this is Lush on drugs

The Saurus clearly won.

Word, everyone still watchin' old grind time battles ! ;)

nice to see a battle with good showmanship and plenty of syllable usage

Thesaurus 2-1

This "win" by dizaster is absurd at best. He literally doesn't make sense for half his rounds. Dizaster is all show and no lyrics. Always has been and always will be.

This battle was BEAST !

This did create diz atleast to me, thanks the saurus, I was content listening to your shit but like 15 years later you did this. You fathered the scene and fathered diz in this one. Thanks bud I think. Like I am literally impartial. I like diz these days and kukoc was good but damn we all grew up liking you and thanks for giving us diz as the future lmao

dizaster won this hands down saurus looked like he didnt even come prepared or put alotta effort into it

The Saures killed Dizaster!!

love to see them battle again now!!!!!!

crazy to see how much diz has progressed since these battles

Great battle!

two of the best!!

I'm glad they put the height of the battlers at the beginning I wouldn't have been content watchin the battle not knowing that ;)

Wow Diz has come a LONG way.

that line saved his round! love it!

Dizaster has come a LOOOOONG way since this battle.. So much more polished now.

By far the calmest introduction i've ever seen dizaster be apart of...

@ 0:58 That guy in the background is like damn son gimme some room {:>_

My 2 Fav rappers going at it!

lmao thesaurus "ever since you left from your desert turf, youve been destined for gettin work, not as a rapper, but as the freshest seven eleven clerk"

Damn...Dizaster has gotten a lot better since this battle.

the good ol grindtime days...

Damn I remember this 💯💯

"Disasters are supposed to be feared this on gets pointed and laughed at" funny as hell

"Everybody give it up for the last four bars of that verse!"

God damn i love diz

The atmosphere in these battles are great, real natural instead of the punchline-induced oohs and aahs we are so used to hearing these days.

Classic Battle

Back in the day when they'd plug the MySpace.

Battle rap has evolved so much.

Who'd have known Diz was a lyrical miracle back in the day?

Some of the most recognized battlers are the ones who have solid verses that never fail to insult and humour.

Diz before the blow.

Classic battle. Thesaurus came with punchlines and Dizaster came with lyricism

The advent of Diz

this battle is a fucking classic lol

Watching this now, Woow!

Anyone who wants to go first against Thesaurus knows off the top that they gunna get destroyed, Diz got his ass handed to him even before Saurus started spitting. He did indeed get pointed and laughed at.

thanks man someone else sees that shit i thought i was going crazy

A star was in the making here...

Diz was so excited there for a minute, he forgot all his writtens! But honestly, both cats were on fire~

Thesaurus: This guy looks like an Asian Koala. Referee: Foul for saying koalas are Asian. Thesaurus: Fuck sake

Diz earned top 5 in my book.

Fouls and tons of ayo's.......hip hop is on life support.

dope battle

They should have a rematch.

back when these battles werent 1 hour long

diz iz crazy mainz

hi guys im from germany i got question about the battles and how the mcees prepare themself for the battel i mean before the battle they get time to prepare and wrote there lyrics what i wanna know do the wrote there lyrics over a beat or just writin without a instrumental just pen and paper but without music. and could be that in the battle the put some freestyles in on top of the written stuff an how does that work i mean mix the written stuff with some freestyle please give me a good answer

Wow 9 years ago

As far as I know, this is his first battle ever in GT. He was battling in WCP(West Coast Pit) before Drect met up with him. Diz was pissed off then, cause he put some great effort into Pit, who even didn't put all of his footage out. THEN, Drect promised Diz he would look up the best opponent he can. Drect spoke to Lush, who talked with Sauras, thought Diz was pretty impressive to accept the battle and here it is. BAM there goes dizaster still spitting his way up to the top.

pooping my pants is my favorite hobby

Good battle

Two goats

this battle was his first one on grindtime!!!

madness and ex-i were all excited during dizasters verse in the background.

This the old classic diz,but i see the very old classic diz in 2007 knockoff freestyle battle,but his skills improve after this one

appreciate it

outdoor battles ftw.

Brap'n Winners by Round: Rd.1- Thesaurus Rd.2- Thesaurus Rd.3- Dizaster Rd.4- Dizaster Brap'n Result: (WL) Debatable 2-2

I still think its funny that Diz talked twice and he still won.

Lol Dizaster is blazed as hell.

dizaster needs to keep flowing, he says a line then "ay yo check it out" then another line.

This whole battle it’s the length of 1 diz round now lmao

was this diz's first ever battle? if not, what is?

dizaster "dat was racist" hahahaha thesaurus killed him

wow, these niggas are actually freestylin their bars, you can just feel the creativity, the off-the-top unpredictability of these two. this is what a true freestyle battle should be, IMO.
