I’ve watched all his battles so many times and I won’t stop. Each time I pick a different person in the crowd and watch their face. It’s so fun seeing them in awe. You can see Soul Khan and Thesaurus looking like they’re seeing their hero. And Patience smiles and laughs cuz he knows. RIP Bender. ❤️
"A massive percentage won't catch till years after I've said it Even after I'm dead, that's not the exit They'll travel for miles and trample the entrance And stand at attention where my casket's embedded Like Vladimir Lenin's cadaver that's kept under glass in the Kremlin" RIP. I'm in India and I wish there was a memorial in Canada I could travel to, to pay my respects.
Yo, writing 5 and 6 syllable rhyme schemes, layered with each line and at the end of every bar, for 8 to 16 bars straight, AND make it all make sense... It is incredibly challenging to do. My God!
Crazy how Bender is so good that you can basically take a random cutout of most of his battles and comprise a "best of" better than any other "best of" out there. Went from a best bars on URL vid to this lol ... Bender will probably be the undisputed battle rap king for a LONG time.
Just fuuuuuuuuuuuuck. So many emcees would dine out on ONE of these bars for life. Bender different gravy man, RIP. 🐐 just in absolute awe of the man's pen.
Charrons SORRY PLAYER scheme vs JIMZ was awesome as well as RANDOMS paying homage in his 3rd vs MADFLEX🔥 Rest in peace 🙏 ENDED MORE DREAMS THAN ALARM CLOCKS🎯
RIP man one of the best writers ever in rap period! Unreal run when he came in as a favor for Lo. One of my favorite performances and three rounds of battling ever was him against Syd! Diz got the big battle but he had the flying knee KO of the night on the under card! Shoulda been Diz vs Bender that night fuck Canibus. Would have been way better.
10:09 Legendary. Also, watch the hosts and other battle rappers during this whole vid, there reactions give away they’re hearing rhymes that are otherworldly. Literally mind blowing
@@fbistatmajor5918 ive done a fair amount of research on the topic. Yes, sleep apnea alone can cause death though this is quite rare, usually death comes from a heart attack while sleeping but to kill a clean sober person in their 30s seems a stretch. I know Bender was a heavy smoker and also around ~80 pounds overweight. It is *possible* chainsmoking, sleep apnea, and heart disease in combination caused his death, certainly...but given his age at t.o.d, it's reasonable to suspect he may have had a genetic heart defect (these usually go unnoticed until unfortunate and untimely passing) and/or he dabbled with drugs that damage the cardiovascular system beyond just cigs (cocaine, meth, etc.). Also, I believe he was a heavy drinker iirc, that certainly could have been a contributing factor. When I try to investigate an untimely death it is never out of malice or disrespect of the departed. It is to enlighten those who want to be health cautious. Bender's death was probably (but not definitely) unnecessary. We have a huge lifestyle related deaths problem in North America, be it overeating leading to early cardiovascular death, heavy drinking causing cancer or heart disease, and the list goes on and on. His death or any other untimely death would be in vain if no lessons come from it. Should I die young, I would want extensive research to be done on me and for the findings to be public to further educate and extend lifespan of the populace. Rip Bender.
@@balladofthebroken7569 you’re right. Sorry i didn’t mean any disrespect towards Bender or anyone. I grew up idolizing Bender and was hoping to one day meet him. I do apologize if my comment upset anyone.
My brains on warp speed, I got fucked up head problems like hunter S thompson when he stuck his best shotgun to his head and then popped one.🫤 just wow
It's August 2023...and I came back for that "Oppenheimer" line.
Always. It's so fire n
Legend forever love from ireland 🇮🇪 ❤️
i can't get over the fact that both of my top 2 KOTD battle rappers are dead....
Tell me about it
One of the greatest writers ever wtf. those coherent rhyme schemes and references RIP
And now after Pat passed, there's no hope left.

So many great mindbender reactions
Sorry playa!!

I still get goosebumps listening to him man fuck....
Battle vs Fredo
Yo, writing 5 and 6 syllable rhyme schemes, layered with each line and at the end of every bar, for 8 to 16 bars straight, AND make it all make sense... It is incredibly challenging to do. My God!
5:41 Even got dope set ups like sting operations. Nasty
jesus - first time watching bender. I"m blown away.
“I don’t let off steam, I let off pyroclastic surges” that line hits
Bender vs. Pat Stay would’ve been legendary.
Yo… heavens having a hell of a third round right now…..lightning strikes & thunder claps. Now that’s how a closing round is supposed to sound
Friend asked me about my Sorry Player T-shirt, and now here I am rewatching Bender videos during the pandemic.
RIP legendary Bender.

This is so true. “I’m too consistent to choose the ‘Best of’. “ - Bender.
@@markronda9613 "So when you heard me start to rap, you should have made a break for it, like Questlove". Word. 🔥
Soooo true his throwaway bars is better than mosts best of
Just fuuuuuuuuuuuuck. So many emcees would dine out on ONE of these bars for life. Bender different gravy man, RIP. 🐐 just in absolute awe of the man's pen.
“Spraying at your ride like a car wash..” that’s one of the hardest lines
He was too good/skilled for battle rap. So glad he recorded tracks. RIP
Charrons SORRY PLAYER scheme vs JIMZ was awesome as well as RANDOMS paying homage in his 3rd vs MADFLEX🔥 Rest in peace 🙏 ENDED MORE DREAMS THAN ALARM CLOCKS🎯
So true legends live forever specially real artists
Wish we'd gotten Bender x Charron for word play.
Dr Robert Oppenheimer........
I think it's squad of top advisers
Grew up watching bender . One of the greats for sure !
absolutely a gifted soul
The only guy I would give a pass for botching lines. Cause he didn't write simple stuff.
Miss you man fawk! You were so dope!
the Master.
#Salute RIP Bender
I will never stop loving watching this, rip king

Quarantine bars
Lyrically untouchable. Not sure who else in the league is even close. It would've been great to see him battle dirt.
This one went under a lot of people’s radars... but they did battle. th-cam.com/video/-X8J7h_P_qg/w-d-xo.html
@@AntidotalChernobyl good catch, that totally slipped my mind. One of the best battles period.
Missing some bars from his battle vs Thesaurus. Awesome recap though. Rest in Paradise, Bender.
R.I.P. #BenderForever

Bender died...?
How did Bender passed away?
Don't think his cause of death was officially released but I heard is was something to do with sleep apnea
@@tiltomorrow000 Ah I see, thanks anyways.
@@tiltomorrow000 how can u die from sleep apnea? Bet it was drugs tbh
@@nicholassears6301 it happens without drugs all the time. Reggie white was completely clean and died from it

If bender was black he’d be considered the greatest ever.
Black or white he still is the greatest!! SMH everything always has to be about race!!
Bender is my Top 6 he was Best.And Best Quoteble in battle Rap
