I remember this. I got it on VHS. ISP won the battle. X-Men seemed like they just came up with that routine in a couple days. MMM was a fool in that one haha.

yup! i got it on vhs too. w the blue cover... we was revisiting this today...i think xmen came with the beats but they just had no chance against isp...that was some other shit back then..like piklz really was on some futuristic when this came out...

but w that said through the years i know some people who said xmen won because they kept it simple and funky..and isp was on some other shit...which is kinda true in a way. i mean that xmen set could be played right now live and still be sick.

isps shit is kinda a mix of break record sounds
xmen i think came in it beat heavy

its a battle tho. your suppose to come up with some off the wall shit and ISP did just that. x-men had some funky shit especially with that bass line and sax bit which was funky as hell but after that it was all show from there. Body tricks and beatjuggling which Eclipse and Raida killed. They dissed by stickin middle fingers and shit but ISP dissed in there skratch routines which was sick.

ISP was on some technical shit. Everything was straight up skratching except for the end part when they started doing Q&A on the electro beat. ISP and X-Men were 2 different styles back then. Eastcoast was more beats, body tricks, juggling and some skratching. Westcoast was all about skratching super fast and more technical (skratch techniques/skratch bands). Thanks to Shortkut who was the man in juggling out here in the west back then.

the individual battles after that was tight to.
