Thanks to everyone checking the battle this was like 2 hours after the event was done troy and his ppl got there late do to traffic issues and I was dumb tired...hence the reason for the right and left mix up.....
Honestly, every time I see a battle hosted by Upstate division I know it's going to be better than anything else GT uploads. Shout out to Drect for keeping GT on its feet, but a major shot out to JusOne for keeping this channel off the chain.
I'm a big fan of Dirt but Troy won. Troy's 2nd round alone was too much real shit, even Dirt got mad and interrupted. "Tried to turn his cellmate into his soulmate....someone who could finish his sentence" - That whole scheme alone was a bodybag.
Underwhelming. Troy Brown's lines are slept on as always. Either way, Dirt had the delivery and consistency and Troy had better lines. Based on the OT, I give it to Troy Brown. His freestyled round was more on point and Dirt had the stumble.
GREAT BATTLE It deserved to be in a neutral place with a way bigger crowd so reactions were equal. Troy had tons of ridiculous bars that no one got & Dirt really bulked up the substance in his awesome rhymes schemes. Very impressive. OT was a perfect decision, Dirt got that round. Troy had a cool Sorry Player tribute but used 6 or 7 of Bender's multis in it which killed the buzz for me. Both homies, both dope.... nice job guys.
Ever noticed that the crowd rarely reacts to Troy's lines in most of his battles. It's like either they completely miss it. Or only a couple ppl react or they react late. I know the bars are clever but cmon people, yall are posed to be educated... I'm happy the comment section on youtube can see Troy is nice. Shout out to everybody that dont judge strictly off crowd reaction.
I am a huge fan of Dirt and Troy Brown but according to the OT, I think Troy won that. Even though, they both messed up, from my perspective, Dirt's choke was more effective than Troy's. I think Troy had that one. Still, I give props to both of them, they did their thing.
These should be the kind of battles Dirt should've been taking when he blew. He was nowhere near Storm's level. Hungry midtiers is a good way for him to cut his teeth before he tries bigger opponents.
I don't know what to say about this one. I have to say that the angles and the way that Troy came after dirt was better the whole rosey thing was done enough. I have to say that I thought Dirt might have edged it slightly in three, but it would have been enough to send it to over time. In the over time Troy got that even with his stumbles through the bars, I have to say it wasn't a style choice for me, I just felt that Troy came better with the bars like the water vapor line. Just my opinion.
Ill battle. Troy's delivery doesn't give you the time to process the wordplay and complexity cuz he jumps immediately into the next scheme and concept before the last one settles. That ugly sweater scheme was HILARIOUS. But like I said, ill battle, big ups to both!
Damn this is the best battle GT has put out in a LONG ass time. It was really fucking close and even after the OT I only think Dirt edged it by a little bit. Troy had some filthy lines that were slept on. Good fucking battle.
Watched this battle 3 times before deciding that dirt won. Troy brown is mad creative, but he's inconsistent, and he has been for his past few battles. Can't give it to him...
Troy got it. personals beats jokes every time, and troy had an incredibly dope way to put it in rd 2. i say, he bodied that round, and the other two were close, but overall it was Troy.
why isnt this posted on the site?? sick battle both ILL as fuck, TB definitly came back from his subpar performances he had lately but Dirt edged it out
Troy got the first round by a landslide. His wordplay was off the charts. The second round was edged by Troy with the personals. The third round was more even, in fact I may even give it to Dirt Either way, Troy got the first two. 2-1 Troy in 3
@gunshotsilent because troy has some of the best bars and angles of any battler out. he is so underrated its crazy. his scheme at the end was one of the best of all of 2011.
Troy was criminally slept on. Stupid, stupid crowd. Frustrating. OT was def. warranted. If there was no OT option I'd say Dirt by a hair cuz Troy rushed his delivery and stumbled a few times, but lyrically it was pretty even. Even the OT was even. I ain't mad at Dirt winning but damn most that crowd was snoozing on Troy.
@UnsolvedMurder666 "I see her at all these upstate battles. If GT knew anything about marketing, they would make her co host and GT would still be doing the numbers they were doing 6 months ago" Been saying that. Make her do something, GT.
Great GREAT battle! Man wish I woulda stayed for this and proverbs battle. I hope y'all notice how many people had on those emerge shirts tho. Anyway I think Round 1- Troy brown killed it to me. Edged it tho. Round 2- I really think It was a tie. The whole black white thing from dirt was close to the best u can get but Troy came back on some real personal stuff and had punches in it. Round 3- I think dirt got this one. OT- definitely needed.... DIRT. Troy was good . But when he said ' i did
Goddamn Troy Brown was gettin' hella slept on in this battle! He had so many lines that were crazy that got NO reaction!
right tho, yo that doing laundry racist line by troy was hilarious
Thanks to everyone checking the battle this was like 2 hours after the event was done troy and his ppl got there late do to traffic issues and I was dumb tired...hence the reason for the right and left mix up.....
when are dirt and nuborn gonna battle? i had forgotten that they were battling until i read your comment
Is this the 1st NY battle that Poison Pen didn't appear in?
whos the lightskin guy with the afro next to the host? ive seen him battle

I liked this format it reminds me of how it used to be and you can focus on the bars more!
troy brown.. please make a video of your OT, im actually interested in hearing what you really meant to say. i keep coming back to watch the OT lol

Is that nocan in the background red sweater thing
Good Battle! I think Troy won... He was the best Battle rapper, Dirt was the best comedian. They are both really good!
What happened to all the march madness battles?
GREAT BATTLE

Both homies, both dope.... nice job guys.
Intro sequence was fucking hilarious, I aint even got to the battle yet.
i LOVE troys line about seperatin colors/ doin laundry that shit was sick
I guess it's too much of an effort for grindtime to even get the title right

@operationthc wat scheme was he talkin bout
Yes, but you can, like in everything else, be better or worse at it. Be more or less versatile, personal, creative etc. It's a style of its own.
Listen Winthorp Longfellow McLovin the 5th! rofl!!
How come the judges say every battle shuld have an OT? haha I mean really?
as soon as he said "you're white like family fun adventures" is started crackin up too....
@hazefarma you can also just type in "sorry player trilogy" and itll come up with a video with everyone in it.
@Dramacydal18 i know right....
I remember when grindtime didnt have 9 min of promos in the beginning of the battles
@JERMIAHTHEMESSIAH This is at a club in North Syracuse..
Is the Poet from Oz in the crowd or Real Talk lmfao
Troy was poor in the first 3 rounds but his OT was amazing. The "forced in labour" line shows his skills. Thats the best line ive heard in a while.
"they think he is the next me i wont dap or salute ya, all ya battles you take the wrong angle you need protractors and rulers" 0_o hot shit
I am a huge fan of Dirt and Troy Brown but according to the OT, I think Troy won that. Even though, they both messed up, from my perspective, Dirt's choke was more effective than Troy's. I think Troy had that one. Still, I give props to both of them, they did their thing.
that was raw hiphop battling i think that was better then alot of theses battles
Dirt hands down. Troy messed up a lot at the beginning of OT, and Dirt called him on his methed-out style during battle... sick wit it.
troy killed the OT with the "sorry player" bender shit! killed it!
im so glad troy brown said shout outs to bender on the OT i was about to sayyyyyy
Troy killed that first round, Troy got the most complex bars
Grind Time Now Presents Battle on The Porch
battle starts at 3:45
These should be the kind of battles Dirt should've been taking when he blew. He was nowhere near Storm's level. Hungry midtiers is a good way for him to cut his teeth before he tries bigger opponents.
@bigdude627 I agree. Troy had some intricate bars.
Troy always gets slept on...he had this.
I don't know what to say about this one. I have to say that the angles and the way that Troy came after dirt was better the whole rosey thing was done enough. I have to say that I thought Dirt might have edged it slightly in three, but it would have been enough to send it to over time.

I like Troy Brown. He is a good rapper.
@dagawd100 i meant jus one dammit......i watch too much west coast battles smh
@MurphGiovanni "think about it" - Troy Brown
@eezee83 No its not. lol. That's some other battlers girl. Forgot his name but he mentioned it in a battle awhile ago.
" You will never be accused for havin' a delivery with the intent of havin' any substance." ...Troy Brown, Body Bag...
Damn this is the best battle GT has put out in a LONG ass time. It was really fucking close and even after the OT I only think Dirt edged it by a little bit. Troy had some filthy lines that were slept on. Good fucking battle.
"hes 35.. he'll cry.. if you notice.. HE'S BALDING"
lmao
Seriously, how did Troy lose? He had the most memorable lines. And that whole round that had the TIP line was better than anythong Dirt said
Man Troy is a beast! Dirt is trill too but Troy won this in three.
but yo troy that shit was actually a really sick tribute to benders scheme
That climbing advert was jokes
Why do the judges feel the need to give him the loss when its clear cut, and still give him the L when he won?
Anybody notice that the judge says "on my right" and motions to the left?? Lol...
Watched this battle 3 times before deciding that dirt won. Troy brown is mad creative, but he's inconsistent, and he has been for his past few battles. Can't give it to him...
Also...Troy brown vs real talk would be sick
Great 2 see two animals go in. Good fuckin battle. Sorry I bounced early!
Dirt was gettin that premium gas
Troy got it. personals beats jokes every time, and troy had an incredibly dope way to put it in rd 2. i say, he bodied that round, and the other two were close, but overall it was Troy.
i can't see dirt really improving. you need more than just multis. this crowd must be living in wrc07.
why isnt this posted on the site?? sick battle both ILL as fuck, TB definitly came back from his subpar performances he had lately but Dirt edged it out
Troy got the first round by a landslide. His wordplay was off the charts. The second round was edged by Troy with the personals. The third round was more even, in fact I may even give it to Dirt Either way, Troy got the first two. 2-1 Troy in 3
Troy Brown: shouts to Bender
troy brown is a phenomenon, this crowd are too slow to comprehend him
Like Dirt quite a bit, but this was a robbery. Troy got this solidly.
Round 1: Tie
Round 2: Dirt
Round 3: Dirt (barely)
Unnecesary OT: Troy Brown
Troy Brown vs Bender, please.
@gunshotsilent because troy has some of the best bars and angles of any battler out. he is so underrated its crazy. his scheme at the end was one of the best of all of 2011.
Dope battle. close to call,,,GT
@Maximillian843 "you will never be accused for having a delivery with the intent of having any substance" that was also a crazy line!!
Dirt's sick but Troy's 3rd verse was ridiculous
TROY BROWN HAS SOME OF GREAT BARS. I dont respect funny bars against REAL bars.
he said on my right and pointed to the left at Dirt lol anybody catch that?
Troy's OT was amazing.. lol
That forced labour line..
@lilbig8543 then go to URL's page where they show those battles...
Troy's rounds were to deep for this crowd but Dirt took it by going the fuck in.
they should do 2 on 2 battles great combination
Oh yeah and me vs jimmy the loch dropping soon! Lol
I like troy brown
@ChicaGorilla312 LOL i know right
most of Troy Brown's OT round bit Bender's sorry player scheme.
I thought that Troy won it in 3 personally...Dirt got the ot tho...
dope battle
@RhinoDigital thats all a bender scheme from KOTD, bender > GT
Bender did, Troy says "shouts to Bender"
Troy was criminally slept on. Stupid, stupid crowd. Frustrating.
OT was def. warranted. If there was no OT option I'd say Dirt by a hair cuz Troy rushed his delivery and stumbled a few times, but lyrically it was pretty even.
Even the OT was even. I ain't mad at Dirt winning but damn most that crowd was snoozing on Troy.
can't tell if biased crowd or just didn't get Troy's bars
great battle.
He said "On my right" then pointed to Dirt ... who's on his left ..
@UnsolvedMurder666
"I see her at all these upstate battles. If GT knew anything about marketing, they would make her co host and GT would still be doing the numbers they were doing 6 months ago"
Been saying that.
Make her do something, GT.
Dirt wasnt that good, but Troy is always underrated.....Troy def. won this
@DomstarRecordz fuckk...i completely missed that bar....Troy came with a purpose and he won...simple as that...
TROY BROWN didnt snitch he was keepin it real
This battle wasnt what i expected because i know both are much better but Dirt got that!
Great GREAT battle! Man wish I woulda stayed for this and proverbs battle. I hope y'all notice how many people had on those emerge shirts tho. Anyway I think
Round 1- Troy brown killed it to me. Edged it tho.
Round 2- I really think It was a tie. The whole black white thing from dirt was close to the best u can get but Troy came back on some real personal stuff and had punches in it.
Round 3- I think dirt got this one.
OT- definitely needed.... DIRT. Troy was good . But when he said ' i did
@hazefarma yo just watch the "best of bender" video all the sorry player bars are at the end. its sick
@Strikeb4ck i actually liked his O.T. round, nice homage to bender's shit
troy won this, pretty clearly too. one of the most underrated battlers out, would love to see him get a big matchup.
troy took it in 3, dirt got the ot.
