I liken this battle to a b-boy battle between a power-head (ISP) and a footwork/style-head (X-Men). If you go for the super-technical rapid-fire scratches you'll probably say ISP won. If you go for the body-tricks, beat juggling and cutting the records to diss the other DJ you'll probably say X-Men won. Either/or, this was a dope fucking battle.

there would only be able to be a comparison between these two styles were they exactly the same. this is the perfect examples of the two hybrid strains of turntablism, both including body tricks, skratching, mixing and juggling. all of those are shown here but shown in different strengths amongst the two crews. our perspective now is based on what has occurred since. those and i who saw this video in the 90s and back then we understood all men on stage as on the avant garde of the art form

Thats whats up. I started back in 87 spinning alot of freestyle and then got into the house,hip hop and r&b. Then mastered salsa,merengue,reggae,soca and bachata. I do alot of lounges in NYC on fridays and saturdays and you have to know how to do it all. It was DJ TLM that inspired me to get into some turntablism and incorporate it into my sets to enhance them some more. I love this shit but you know it's not for the clubs. Check DJ TLM out,nice combo of turntablism,blending and party rockin.

My favorite thing about this video is Q-bert proving that he could have been a pretty good beat juggler if he put his mind to it. Alot of people peg dude as "just" a scratch cat, but he's really just an incredibly talented musician who chose to focus on scratching. X-Men won this joint though.

Much respect to you homey. I like the way you set me up, Post up some shit I would like to see. I'm no turntablist but I get busy with the mixing. Grew up spinning house music and freestyle(Puerto rican here), Thats why you heard me drop those names cause thats what I came up on. As far as hip hop my knowledge is no where as extensive as yours but I know enough cause i love it and still play it. just got into the beat juggling shit. Always knew how to scratch though. Good arguing with you! Peace

Listen to the juggles homey. There just as complex as anything the isp did and you may not like it but this is a battle and body tricks are a part of it. And I have to correct myself. When I said Craze was one of the first I meant Cash Money. And show me one vid that q is doing other than scratching. His juggles aren't anything special, his scratching is what makes him who he is.

But like q said. RAIDA CANT CSRATCH. And there battle ing international SCRATCH pickles. ISP starts by murdering xmen with 1 turntable and nothing but new style turntablism. Don't get me worm XMEN AR FOR REAL LEGENDS. THIS IS AN OLD VIDEO and they all have come a very long way. LEAGENDY. but ISP gave xmen a lesson. Nice 80's style body tricks. Rob swift definitely most progressive. At this timeRIP ROC (the bruce lee of tricks)this is talent VS show. ISP talent kills. Come on. Both Q"s sets are unbelievably insane for now let alone what 20 years ago That why he is the best

Got to remember Q got in the accident so he could not do as many or close to no body tricks any more that way i think ISP one this one because the skill that mike and Q and shortcut brought is a little more technical then what X-men brought in this battle. yes X-men bring a lot of mean body tricks and cuts when they did but give it up for Q mixing Roc the bells with just fader and scratch all though all deejays know that a song meant for body tricks

shortkuts juggles had roc beat by a mile. mike and Q's scratch was more than enough to take care of the xmens basic jugglin. The picklez always beat them making the decision unanimous. I'm guessing your from the east coast and youre giving roc the nod cause dude just passed away (r.i.p. roc!)
@stillceaser 12 жыл бұрын
I'm hearing a lot of dumb comments on here. The general consensus back then was that, novel as the body tricks were, the Piklz were just so far ahead in innovating new techniques. I saw Q doing juggles as technically competent as the X-Mens' two years before this battle. The body tricks had already been done to death. The Piklz were something special, no-one came close.
