Really liking the quality of the vid...big up to the cameraman and editing crew. This is how ALL battles in GT should look. But anyway...from the jump, I predicted that Ness would outstyle/outshine Marvs lines eventhough theyre both REALLY dope IMO (as well as everyone else in the tourney). Great battle.
Big ups to this battle. Straight classic. Been listening to URL for awhile but that league has been letting me and the fans down. I'm glad GT still givening us classic
Im from Portland, Oregon, Fresh Coast what up? How would I get into the battle scene I spit fire an I think Im perfect for this, Fresstyle or written rappers look out im coming for ya'll.
In case u didnt read the description ... "Please note: Someone in the crowd fainted during Marvwon's 3rd round and cause a major distraction, which affected the last round of the battle. "
Immortal Technique made a very good point about NYC alienating themselves and ultimately hurting their scene by treating every other region of rappers as if they were inferior. We, as musicians, need to unite in order to achieve notoriety on a national level.
Who said Ness Lee was trash? His bars are crazy! Actual intelligent metaphors, delivery and versatility. First round I was still in denial until he started snapping during the second. Let's be real... Who really won? No bias, opinionated votes here, just facts. Back to the person that said Ness was wack... Are we even watching the same battle? You obviously have a J. Foxx battle open in another tab. We forgive you.
I think it's clear that Ness Lee is one of the best in Grindtime. As great as Marv is, Ness Lee's flow and delivery just overpowered that battle. Great filming, by the way, and props to Immortal Technique for giving the emcees who lose the chance to rock when he comes to their city.
I'm not sure why there was so much deliberating. I guess cuz it's Marvwon (I'm a fan by the way), so they feel like he has to get some consideration. However, Ness Lee not only had some funny ass punchlines, he pieced together the lines well, and his flow was switched up enough to make you say, "Damn, he's finished? Damn!" Round 1 - Ness Lee Round 2 - Ness Lee Round 3 - Ness Lee
@Crossthefuture yes he was Marv's first GT battle was Aye Verb in September 2009 Ness's was against Jay Focus in like April 2009 and he battle Paperwerks at Grizzlemania 1 in July of 2009
Yeah, I agree with the way it was put. I would say that marv got the first, but after that ness got the other two. It was a great battle, I don't know what the hell happened in the third but honestly marv really lost all of his momentum when he came into the 3rd. This was a dope battle. Honestly Rocky was right when he said that he could easily see this as a main event. Both are really dope.
Good stuff from Ness. Got scared after Marv's first round but Ness came back in the second. In the third, Marv didn't sound like the Marv from the first round and didnt have any bars that hit, mostly filler stuff. Ness really got it with the later half of his third and won it with that. Can't wait to see who he faces in the next round.
@imortaltechniqe i think hes gotta myspace, i cant remember but just go to one of his battles and he'll have it posted in the intro. hes got some dope music too
@DoktaDoc205 wish you the best bro im in West TN been dealing with the storms myself... keep yo head up tho they gone be over today until the weekend .......1
I'm from Detroit so that "mechanic" line hurt but Ness waas nice and so was Marv. My fav Marv line was...well the whole first round was nice with the name flips and all.
Ness Lee took that one, Marvwon was an animal with that playing call of duty scheme, he's f'n sick... but Ness was just more consistent... plus the you eat bad and drink beers line, had me doing repeats.. heh...so there ya go..
Ness easily has ONE of the best cadences in battle rap today, in my opinion the best. Someone said something about him stuttering........ And your point is? Every rapper stutters / stumbles a bit. It was awesome watching ness and sir locksley battle, locksley is my other favorite, his off kiltered word play reminds me of a grittier Ness or pharaoh monche.
@nessleezle lol And there was me thinkin it was the new style.. (I'm so out of touch I make Marv look young) Good battle man, hope it leads to even bigger things.
immortal technique is THAT dude. Poison Pen and PH have done a great job with the NY division. They've got the grittiness and the respect to run a division in a place like NY. I love Jaze (no homo), but he couldn't have done what Pen and PH have managed in the past year. I still hope they'd all make up for the sake of hip hop.
ness lee been my fav battler for a while now... kills it every time.. not just bars but flow too... u never see tht in battles anymore
Can't believe I've only just found this battle. Two of my favourite battle rappers 🔥🔥🔥
"your age is wearing a cape....you are SUPER old" LMAOOOOO!!! that was funny!!
Ness a beast with the schemes. Nobody can argue against it. His "I'm Lee, my G" scheme against Shotty Horroh was MADDD.
Poison Pen's laugh won this battle
Really liking the quality of the vid...big up to the cameraman and editing crew. This is how ALL battles in GT should look. But anyway...from the jump, I predicted that Ness would outstyle/outshine Marvs lines eventhough theyre both REALLY dope IMO (as well as everyone else in the tourney). Great battle.
Two beasts going in!!! New style on the camera angles. Dope.
its about time man....GT i've been waiting for a battle like this.....it was FIRE
Very good battle. Everything was perfect: the performers, the crowd, the hosts, keep it up bro.
As a long time fan of battling and hip hop in general, this match revives my love for both.
holy shit an HD battle a day or two after the promo came out...good shit GT.
Hearing Poison Pen's laugh always brightens my day.
whoever did the camera work? much props, that had me entertained more than usual
Great Battle.
Nice touch from Tech allowing all the mc's in the competition to open up shows.
@sonicsoundwaveus Not sure where you got that info from but, he Jazzy Pha was born in Memphis & raised in the ATL.
So when's The Middle Passage coming out??
Big ups to this battle. Straight classic. Been listening to URL for awhile but that league has been letting me and the fans down. I'm glad GT still givening us classic
wheres the rest of these battles
Song in the beginning? Someone pleaaase
What the name of the song at the beggining?
very true..Ness and Thesarus is a great battle if you haven't seen it
when are the rest of the vids being released
Im from Portland, Oregon, Fresh Coast what up? How would I get into the battle scene I spit fire an I think Im perfect for this, Fresstyle or written rappers look out im coming for ya'll.
What camera do they use?
One more angle would seal the deal. Audio and video quality is on point.
In case u didnt read the description ... "Please note: Someone in the crowd fainted during Marvwon's 3rd round and cause a major distraction, which affected the last round of the battle.
"
stupid questn but , song in very beginning ?
pen sippin on dat huggie like a real g sposed to
what was that song at the begining
@twiptwi87 everyone keeps sayin marvwon was in 8 mile but i have seen that movie over a thousand times and i neva see him what scene is he in?
Can anyone tell me that Song In the Beginning With Immortal Tech?
Immortal Technique made a very good point about NYC alienating themselves and ultimately hurting their scene by treating every other region of rappers as if they were inferior. We, as musicians, need to unite in order to achieve notoriety on a national level.

Back to the person that said Ness was wack... Are we even watching the same battle? You obviously have a J. Foxx battle open in another tab.
We forgive you.
WHATS THE INTRO SONGS NAME?
I think it's clear that Ness Lee is one of the best in Grindtime. As great as Marv is, Ness Lee's flow and delivery just overpowered that battle. Great filming, by the way, and props to Immortal Technique for giving the emcees who lose the chance to rock when he comes to their city.
@walstar20 what battle were you watching
Where did this one go down?
what song is at begining?
who won the trip with immortal technique? ?
@MrSanQuentin703
Gee willikers where did you ever come up with that one?!
The best two pure rappers in gt loving this HD quality good battle!!
who won the final with mortal tech ??
Dayum this is some good quality =D
Is there a white version?
When did Kimbo Slice start hosting battles?
I'm not sure why there was so much deliberating. I guess cuz it's Marvwon (I'm a fan by the way), so they feel like he has to get some consideration. However, Ness Lee not only had some funny ass punchlines, he pieced together the lines well, and his flow was switched up enough to make you say, "Damn, he's finished? Damn!"
Round 1 - Ness Lee
Round 2 - Ness Lee
Round 3 - Ness Lee
Thanks for the new vid, now where's Dirt vs. PH???
is Marv's 3rd round done yet or can i go back to sleep?
Ness is probably the smoothest writer in any of this battle shit....a battle between him and Dizaster would be insane, racism all over the place lol.
how old is Marv?
Drect when we gonna get another camron freestyle from you again?? LOL That shit was maaaad cool!!
@Crossthefuture yes he was Marv's first GT battle was Aye Verb in September 2009 Ness's was against Jay Focus in like April 2009 and he battle Paperwerks at Grizzlemania 1 in July of 2009
When the host want to be heard.
@svp420 where are u from herb
That motor city line was one of the coldest lines I ever heard. Ness 3-0
His inner self, has an inner self, that has a triple chin as well
HOTNESS
ida been louder then that whole crowd by myself
Looks like some now high def cam's too. Good fuckin work.
@twiptwi87 He was in 8 miles?
immortal tech is the reason i started watching grindtime
" His inner self has an inner self that has a triple chin as well." ...lol
@twiptwi87 who was he in 8 mile??
@theoneandonlycmoneyd it called "On my way to work" Alchemist on the track
i think marv stumbled in the 3rd cus the venue reminded em of his 8mile battle.
"Marvwon gonna open up for Ness Lee"
That sums up the battle..
Yeah, I agree with the way it was put. I would say that marv got the first, but after that ness got the other two. It was a great battle, I don't know what the hell happened in the third but honestly marv really lost all of his momentum when he came into the 3rd. This was a dope battle.
Honestly Rocky was right when he said that he could easily see this as a main event. Both are really dope.
BATTLE STARTS AT 3:59
THE GREATEST GRIND TIME BATTLE THUS FAR! HANDS DOWN! shout to marv and ness less! damn i wish marv wouldve advanced too!
Grind Time is SLIPPIN' HARD!!!
@Crossthefuture 1st time I saw marv was vs Ayeverb.I had saw ness battle a couple cali dudes b4 then b4 ATL had a grindtime
finally grindtime has stepped up their camera work. URL style
Is that Jeremy Piven with the red hat?
Good stuff from Ness. Got scared after Marv's first round but Ness came back in the second. In the third, Marv didn't sound like the Marv from the first round and didnt have any bars that hit, mostly filler stuff. Ness really got it with the later half of his third and won it with that.
Can't wait to see who he faces in the next round.
I like how Marv turned his verse into spoken word poetry
@imortaltechniqe i think hes gotta myspace, i cant remember but just go to one of his battles and he'll have it posted in the intro. hes got some dope music too
@iskate253 Now that's disrespectful..lol. How do u even make that comparison?
Poison sounds like he's adding years to his life when he breaks out laughing.
"For some peanuts under a blanket is where u'll Linus." LmaoLoLrofl!
Good Battle.. I liked Both..
immortal technique:O..fuck man... grindtime is setting the standard..great battle
@droptimusrhymes Ohh wow the freakin pictures excuse me for not giving youtube my full attention. Either way who's winning it all?
Man Ness is underrated. Some serious wordplay there.
yo this poisen pen dude laughin had me rolllin through the whole battle
Check out Ness Lee in "I Am The South" on TH-cam!
@KazperTheStreetPoet huh?????Explain how
I feel like Ness Lee out raps everyone he battles. Dude's flow is on point.
@BsmJahsh yeah, first time i heard someome saying royce fifty nine instead of five nine.
why is Marv 0-1??? who's the ONE?
This GT event is on URL level,GT needs to drop more events like this.....
@DoktaDoc205 wish you the best bro im in West TN been dealing with the storms myself... keep yo head up tho they gone be over today until the weekend .......1
I'm from Detroit so that "mechanic" line hurt but Ness waas nice and so was Marv. My fav Marv line was...well the whole first round was nice with the name flips and all.
Damn, I want to hear Ness Lee on a track. I like his flow.
Ness Lee took that one, Marvwon was an animal with that playing call of duty scheme, he's f'n sick... but Ness was just more consistent... plus the you eat bad and drink beers line, had me doing repeats.. heh...so there ya go..
both killed it. marvs punchlines hit hard, but ness had flow and punches. ness lee got it overall
Ness easily has ONE of the best cadences in battle rap today, in my opinion the best. Someone said something about him stuttering........ And your point is? Every rapper stutters / stumbles a bit. It was awesome watching ness and sir locksley battle, locksley is my other favorite, his off kiltered word play reminds me of a grittier Ness or pharaoh monche.
@nessleezle lol And there was me thinkin it was the new style.. (I'm so out of touch I make Marv look young)
Good battle man, hope it leads to even bigger things.
GT IS ON THE BALL HOLY SHIT THE PROMO VID JUST CAME OUT AND LOOK AT THIS SHIT :) URL NEEDS TO TAKE NOTES A FUCKING SAP !
It suck's that ness is retiring from battling after this year, he's Dope.
Ness got this battle, he was more consistant and his flow is so nice.
Could you imagine how crazy hip hop would be if everyone thought like Tech?
immortal technique is THAT dude. Poison Pen and PH have done a great job with the NY division. They've got the grittiness and the respect to run a division in a place like NY. I love Jaze (no homo), but he couldn't have done what Pen and PH have managed in the past year. I still hope they'd all make up for the sake of hip hop.
