P.E.A.C.E. vs. Dose One


Scribble Jam, 1999

If you watch carefully you can actually pinpoint the exact moment that the competitive rap circuit (which always kinda sucked, to be honest) was completely whitewashed of any modicum of quality rapping and vaguely rhythmic stand up comedy stepped in to take it’s place. PEACE eventually lost to Eyedea.

    dose one is such a piece of shit.

    What’s the beat? I can’t remember in my old age…

    I know you’re a fan Noz so you probably won’t agree but it’s all Monch’s fault. All of it. Even if he mostly stayed on beat he invited every wack smartarse to ignore the beats for ever more. It’s his fault.

  5. David Says:

    I think the sad thing is that as a part of Subtle, Themselves, Why? and as an overall head of the Anticon Consortium, Dose has done some incredibly amazing things with hip-hop, especially last year’s Subtle record. I’d never seen him battle before and I only heard about his 1997 meeting with Eminem in passing, but this is a totally different Adam Drucker than I expected to see. Unless this is some other Dose One.

    ^^^ Indeed.

    ^referring to bse…anticon is not my type of shit.

    I completely agree.

    Wait, “amazing” is slang for “terrible” right?

    Don’t blame Monch ot the Project Blowed heads for this nonsense.

  9. Train Says:

    I maintain my opinion that Dose One is the worst rapper of all time.

  10. noz Says:

    for the record, i think dose one has his moments.

    this clip was not one of them.

  11. extra penis Says:

    Dose’s Hemispheres is a personal favorite.

  12. Jonny Says:

    A single tear drops my eye to. Only cuzz I deleted the 6 paragraphs of hate I just typed. Fuck dose, eyedea and all wack mc’s that bite the FF. and that faggots that are their fans. fuck you.

  13. d. b. cooper Says:

    When Dose still made hip hop he made some great hip hop. Jonny, you’re a jerk, there’s a difference between being influenced by Freestyle Fellowship and biting Freestyle Fellowship. Your hatred is pathetic. Sure Anticon has some fans who are insane and deluded but so does Jay-Z or just about any other rapper. It should be acknowledged that a legitimate hip hop fan can legitimately appreciate at least some of Dose’s music, and… ah fuck it, fuck you too:).

  14. Jonny Says:

    You want to talk about pathetic? In the battle he “won” eyedea call P.E.A.C.E a bone thugs and harmony biter. Are you kidding me? Who were the judges of that battle? Cocksucker is standning there swinging on the FF style and he calls P.E.A.C.E. a biter? The people in the crowd bought that shit. My hatred is legit. Suckers should have boooed him off the stage. Judges should have laughed at him. Eyedea didn’t belong on the stage with P.E.A.C.E., and then he wins.
    That crowd from what 8 years ago. Fools didn’t know their history. That hurts. Unoriginal MC + stupid crowd = my hatred.

    as for the anti dose crew making some good records? so what? those dudes were biters. period. influence my ass. I didn’t hear their records and say to myself “ha I can hear the influence” like a brother ali record (ghostface and KRS) I listened to that shit and says “ha these motherfuckers are biters” I bought their first 12″ threw it on and that was my very first thought. I listened to them and they never grew. WACK. Didn’t some of the music sound good? Yeah. Was it original. HELL NO. Those guys suck.

    It is what it is. Funny enough I like dose and his crew now. Those weird acid trip records are innovative.

    and fuck it…i love you homie. (;

    Are you kidding me? It’s a fucking battle. Misrepresenting your opponent is par for the course. I’m quite sure that Eyedea and all the “biters” know exactly who flipped the style first. He’s getting in a dig on the fact Bone Thugs blew up and no one knows who PEACE is. And the crowd going nuts is evidence it was a dope line — that’s what you’re trying to do in a live performance.

  16. d. b. cooper Says:

    So what FF (or any other artist’s) record was Dose biting when he made the Them record? Deep Puddle Dynamics? cLOUDDEAD? Hemispheres? The No Music? Those are the Dose records I loved or liked, I don’t see where the biting comes in. I like to think I have a solid grip on hip hop history but I’m honestly lost.

  17. Jonny Says:

    saying peace bit bone is wack. period.

    ..All I have to say is I don’t like eyedea and I never liked anything dose had his name associated with besides clouddead.

  18. p puff Says:

    Wow, P.E.A.C.E killed ‘ole boy…

  19. gold Says:

    i cant believe i just watched those nasal fucks go at it

  20. Apekser Says:

    wow…i’m glad i never went to skribble jam.

  21. gstatty Says:

    dose one sounds like he had a goose with its wings clipped and legs broken shoved down his throat, i’ll give him props for being on the deep puddle dynamics album, but thats just for tricking the others into letting him on it, i haven’t listened to clouddead, hemispheres, the no music, why? but thats cause every song i have heard with dose one on it was instantly ruined by his donald duck style, i didn’t think peace was all that bad, but that rappin fast shit got old real quick, unless you can change it up and switch styles, since i lived in LA for a few years, i like all the project blowed stuff, i met ab rude once and hes a dick, but i’ve seen eyedea in concert, and have heard plenty of his music, and hes on some other shit, stop lovin the hype and start lovin the music

    You want to talk about pathetic? In the battle he “won” eyedea call P.E.A.C.E a bone thugs and harmony biter. Are you kidding me? Who were the judges of that battle? Cocksucker is standning there swinging on the FF style and he calls P.E.A.C.E. a biter?

    Wooow. It’s a battle. Settle down. Getting under the other person’s skin is the purpose.

    For how sick FF is, PEACE is not a battler. I’m surprised, by watching the Scribble footage, that he made it as far as he did. I my opinion, he made it that far mostly by reputation and stage presence, not due to much else.

    In terms of biting, for real, I think it comes down to the music you listen to growing up. Hell, if being inspired by the music you listen to is biting then everyone is one. It’s what pushes people to create their own style. If Eyedea is a biter, Peace is a biter. Obviously, not by Bone Thugs. Those fools were definately mooching off a style besides the one they found.

    As for Dose, I think a lot of people need to get off the whole idea that hip hop needs to be a certain way. If you don’t like someone’s music, it doesn’t mean that they aren’t good artists. There are a lot of artists that are doing new things and a lot that aren’t. I’m over uninspired dead end lyrics talking about an artist soapboxing about how much doper they are than everyone else. Dose One is pretty weird, but at least he’s original.

  23. EVS Says:

    I didn’t want to come off saying Peace is biter. It was just an analogy.

  24. Surreal Says:

    EVS…Wha?

    PEACE is not a battler?

    you need to watch all of that years scribble.

    i suppose it comes down to what what you value most, but the comment about “vaguely rhythmic comedy” was apt.

    Look at the footage of them announcing the winner of that year. eyedea REALLY THOUGHT PEACE won.

  25. Surreal Says:

    and the problem with “misrepresenting your opponents history” being par for the course is that is not wit. it is not creative. it is a lie.

    if he had made fun of bone blowing up while PEACE got no props, as you pointed out, that would have been one thing but ask yourself how many heads will leave that battle thinking of peace as a derivative of bone?

  26. geltab Says:

    you can’t compare peace with dose
    that’s like comparing an apple to the whole tree
    peace can rap so fucking what
    he’s a peace of shit that can rap
    dose can rap
    sing
    write music
    play the keyboard
    act
    make music videos
    mix
    blow your fucking pathetic rap listening minds back like when you found out that aceyalone and peace sucked dick for lyrics and got ripped the fuck off if you ask me because their lyrics are void of any intelligence you fucking rap FAGGOT!!

    dose one makes music that will live on.
    your favorite act is dying in a parking lot full of bullet holes
    how the fuck does someone like you learn how to use the internet?? internet phonics??

  27. KNOWLEEEDGE REIGNS SUPREME Says:

    Yes, this is HIP HOP, this is RAP(adj)…
    no one gives a hoot if u can play the keyboard IF U CANT RAP.
    This is wut the people came to see.

    How long can Dose go rapping……… non-stop? Exactly.
    Once i wuz strolling thru Melrose, went into workemens, saw this dood freestyling, realized it was P.E.A.C.E., thought to myself, if i bust.. this foo will flip out (cuz im a female who could actually spit).. dood, i swear, that dood kept shit going on a high octave non-stop.. non-stop. yo nooon-stop. i wuz like: bang! that’s why he’s PEACE. no way would i interrupt the dood, that wuz profound history right in front of my eyes, a true legend, one of the members (FF) that Bone Thugs went to blowed to bite off so they can blow up ignorant greedy low-life clowns.

    Met peace n’ all them cats actually, they grew up around sum of the toughest gangs in LA, you expect them to be all, “hey john, how you doing? grey poupon n’ shit. these doods are legends, chilled and evolved around sum of the finest. you want them to notice u, and give u a compliment, give ‘em something to respond to u about.. spit something nice. they will respond, human. u dont know nothing about street cred dude, no easy props man.

    *So when i seen this battle, i got a first-reaction laugh at eyedeas line, bc i’m a battle mc. but moments after, i wuz also upset. the point is this is a Hip Hop Jam,,, just like the BBoy Summits and Freestyle Sessions where bboys battle it out and pay homage to all those who came before them. they even have panels to teach the youth so that there are no blurry lines. This is not acceptable. All for one moment, but now that whole crowd leaves thinking, Peace is just som random joe frum LA, and Bones Thugs are this great group that came before hip hop(or sum scary fairytale). So all in all, this is wrong. as an emcee, i would have never put someone down like this (esp those whom came b4 me) just to win a battle. thats just outright SELFISH and UNJUSTIFIED.

    Remember kids, “IT’S BIGGER THAN HIP HOP HIP HOP”

    The best way to clear up this issue, cop The Life when it drps,,, going to be a must have for that kollection

    u’re so full of shit it’s incredible

  30. colin Says:

    I stumbled upon this and found it funny that nearly all of the posts have words that are spelled incorrectly. One certain female did not even know who she was trying to disrespect. You all make hip hop look stupid. I do not even feel obligated to give my opinion for it would only lower said thought. Hip hop starts with your soul, do not be an emulation, these two aren’t… If you want to be critical of someone, start with yourself.
