Babu is a legend, but this routine only showcases his juggling and a small portion of his scratching skills. In 2 minutes Total not only showed he was better at scratching, but could do what Babs spent half his routine doing in half the time, with relative ease. Not to mention the word play and body tricks that got the crowd into it.
this vid is on heavy rotation.. never seen a dj act like total eclipse. thats really cool. pure entertainment, nice juggles.. easily one of my favourites!
hahah dude remember there being no ac at the spot and the battle being like 5 hours long?? the craze vs eclipse battle was close! this was during the east coast west coast era...so of course NY was reppin hard! I STILL GOT THE FLYER FOR THIS BATTLE! Roli vs Babu needs to be posted quick! remember dj ghetto with his broken pinky and rochead from new zealand...and Ray Roll i think was crakin on dj skinny boy from Hawaii lol! classic! i snuk a 40oz in my jansport and was just chillin! YEES!!
the first beat Babu juggled is from the song "Speak your clout" by gangstarr (hard to earn album). That song had at least 3 different beats. I forget which one it is.
@DjLukeySmoke The original is off of Jive Rhythm Tracks released in like 82 or so. It's called 122bpm. QBert and them put it on their Toasted Marshmellow Feet Breaks album which is what Babu uses in this battle. You can find it here on youtube. Just search for 122bpm beat or jive rhythm tracks 122 bpm.
i remember being there .. craze got jerked vs eclipse even tho he destroyed drummers beat .. dummy vs craze was crazy man . i hope u do post it bro .. that and the craze vs eclipse battle .. after craze got jerked no one gave a shyt .. we were all booing .. we spent hrs standing up at Twilo to see politics . the judges had X men on it and eclipse had just become a member meanwhile craze was the crewless cat ( pre- allies)
There is a video of when he is young and he is chubby and has a shitty moustache and he looks older there than he does now, dude is like Benjamin Button
you mean 0:14 - 0:17? If so mind sending a link? If you mean what Babu what juggling after that it's actually Caesar Frazier - Funk It Up (or at least I think so!!)
Well .. i guess total didnt do any cutting . In any case, those of us who were there were tired and upset that craze got jerked. Worse part was that they had eliminations first, this was like RSC after event so we were already beat so to stand up all nite and watch politics unfold was the worst.
discodolo.... i heard there was alot of controversy about this final round battle..people said the same thing about alot of the xmen being on the judging panel and if you watch the announcement of the winner you hear boos or "babuuuu!"..i will post all of the battles from the finals...
Babu, Qbert, Eclipse, and Total Eclipse in one building(and the latina I used to see at all the battles back in the day). Legen.....wait for it........dary. Babu won though. Seems like T.Eclipse wasn't feeling it.
I gotta go with Babs as the winner here. 'Clipse didn't even have a "complete routine". 2 beat juggles with an "Oh shit, there's still time?" moment thrown in. Body tricks FTMFL!
Seamless? I dig Babu way more than Total Eclipse.....that being said, T.E. was "Seamless" with the timing.....overall I give it to T.E. strictly on timing and showmanship.....Babu seemed too eager and wanted to flaunt all of his skills into 2 mins which in the end came out rushed and not fluid enough....that's my opinion
"da FUCK you smokin!?! Babs wasn't all that "coordinated". I was there that night and it was going towards a East Coast West Coast Battle at the finals...shit was crazy! 5 Hours of nop AC in the middle of the summer with 5 dollar water bottles! SHIT I WISH I WAS 16 AGAIN!
please upload craze vs dummy and crazy vs total .lol .. yea i was there booing hard man .. this was before babu was on we were booing hard. i give craze props for sucking that one up and becoming one of the greats man .. nevertheless we were very pissed about the decision ,not to take anything away from babu and eclipse. . babu i think won too, but by then we didnt care about the outcome lol
yea my back was shot from all the standing . I came str8 from RSC concert, i remember seeing ghetto on the line cuz they hadnt opened shyt up. lol @ dj skinny boy . eliminations was realaly torture. Craze vs dummy was the greatest. I still think (along wit the whole crowd) that craze got jerked .. SOUL PLEASE POST THAT BATTLE Lol
I actually agree babu was better overall... But then again Total E Ripped the shit with the last juggle man that was some crazy shit.... Babu played more on safe !!
i love how back then everybody was a legend
They weren’t legends back then tho... they worked hard to become one now.

Although E had harder routines, Babu's scratching complimented his routines in each set. It shows balance.

Total Eclipse had his routine down crazy tight Baby killed it too good battle
hahah dude remember there being no ac at the spot and the battle being like 5 hours long?? the craze vs eclipse battle was close! this was during the east coast west coast era...so of course NY was reppin hard!

YEES!!
That was dope! I like the second dudes twirls after he cut hahaha thats fresh.
And for the record, Eclipse murdered in this round
Eclipse used Jungle brothers in his set? 5000 booming watts, sound system state of the art.
Dope battle 👊🏽💯two ledgends right here
Im a fan of both but total killed tht
sleepybrown987 yeah .. lol !! .. more than that , he totaly riped him (: , !!
Wow. Baby is the sure shot. & Qbert head nodding & always supporting him fam

It's the last beat from that song. The Guru part.
this is one of my all-time favorite battles

the last song that total eclipse use is = Jungle Brothers - J Beez Comin' Through
BOTH ARE SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ffffffffffuckin AWESOME two dj+dj premier that nobody could touch them.........
I have this on VHS somewhere in my my mom's basement. Classic!
NOBODY was seein' Total Eclipse at this ITF. He was ON throughout.
i'm sorry guys i have been lagging on the videos.. i'll rip them this week and upload them!
dude that's what i was looking at!
Super.
yooo, total rocked that! he made it look easy as he rolls his eyes and juggles at the same time
That Brooklyn Zoo routine was funky!!...DAMN
Eclipse was a better showman but Babu had more technical skill I think
i agree

Like my man said on Gladiator, “win the crowd”. Total Eclipse won the crowd.
discodolo.... i heard there was alot of controversy about this final round battle..people said the same thing about alot of the xmen being on the judging panel and if you watch the announcement of the winner you hear boos or "babuuuu!"..i will post all of the battles from the finals...
Babu. No Question.
What song does Babu start with at 0:16?
@eroye1 if you're asking what the second track eclipse flipped was, it's the jungle bros.- j beez comin thru
@DjLukeySmoke Its a beat found on the toasted marshmallow break vinyl, babu speed it up when he scratched over it
Invisibl Skratch Piklz. Q-Bert, D-Styles, Mix Master Mike
And Shortkut
Disk & Yoga Frog, A Trak, Emcee UB40, Toadman.
Nice!🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨11
@gadget609 Gotta be something else...right song, but missing the piano in all the versions I looked at...custom record?
what is the name
second song on total eclips mix??
just uploaded Craze VS Dummy last night. Should be able to upload Babu vs Roli and Craze vs Total Eclipse tonight!
yea that routine was sick man .
Babu, Qbert, Eclipse, and Total Eclipse in one building(and the latina I used to see at all the battles back in the day). Legen.....wait for it........dary. Babu won though. Seems like T.Eclipse wasn't feeling it.
That was a great battle with two legends, but Eclipse won that one.
I gotta go with Babs as the winner here. 'Clipse didn't even have a "complete routine". 2 beat juggles with an "Oh shit, there's still time?" moment thrown in. Body tricks FTMFL!
Is that Eclipse from Fat Beats\ Non Phixion?
yes
yea
Babu is great but Total Eclipse is on fire
@aaronvlee7 nah it's not a custom track, i still have the vinyl 12inch, it's on there.
Is that dj eclipse next to qbert?
What is the second title that Eclipse passes (as the group and with the beat fast enough) because it is terrible, please ?
Thank you.
if you look at videos around that year with q in them he looks like that. Also the hat wearing style hes got going on as well.
Seamless? I dig Babu way more than Total Eclipse.....that being said, T.E. was "Seamless" with the timing.....overall I give it to T.E. strictly on timing and showmanship.....Babu seemed too eager and wanted to flaunt all of his skills into 2 mins which in the end came out rushed and not fluid enough....that's my opinion
oh shit!! THIS IS WHERE THE FUN BEGINS! LEMME GET MY 40oz READY FOR THIS ONE!
Eclipse with the style !!!
whats the second beat eclipse juggled?
0:15 : (« Gang Starr - Speak ya clout @ 2:25 (on the track) ») 🔥🔥🔥
whats the last track from eclipse??!!
"da FUCK you smokin!?! Babs wasn't all that "coordinated".
I was there that night and it was going towards a East Coast West Coast Battle at the finals...shit was crazy! 5 Hours of nop AC in the middle of the summer with 5 dollar water bottles! SHIT I WISH I WAS 16 AGAIN!
holy babu was big back in the day now when u look at him hes skinny now an i see dj q-bert in the background lol ugh i love this music so much
wot the first break that babu is playin..the one he does the brokken down juggle with
What is the First beat BABU uses?
Babu was technically more proficient, funkier, fluid and musical. Not that Eclipse was particularly bad.
Babu was good but not as clean and effortless as Total Eclipse. Eclipses set can start a bar brawl!!!
I swear. E don’t seem like he be trying in any of his routines. But he always rips it!
babuu!!!
BIUTIFULL THE SAMPLES OF TOTAL EKIPSE YEHA MA NIGA

The Latin Kings came out of Chicago and eventually expanded all over the country. I saw that in a documentary.
Who Won
Babu my dude but Eclipse won that, he's a faster juggler

TOTAL KILLED THAT
that woman sitting behind eclipse just wants to go home

yea my back was shot from all the standing . I came str8 from RSC concert, i remember seeing ghetto on the line cuz they hadnt opened shyt up. lol @ dj skinny boy . eliminations was realaly torture. Craze vs dummy was the greatest. I still think (along wit the whole crowd) that craze got jerked .. SOUL PLEASE POST THAT BATTLE Lol
