The battle rap fans were waiting to have a field day with this one. Cassidy finally found himself on foreign turf after months of interviews and preparation he went up against Dizaster. It isn’t hard to see that Cassidy struggle with his first round, and Dizaster claimed that Cassidy’s crew was preventing him from spitting. The battle lasted nearly one round before the lights were shut off in the building and fans were asked to leave. Both battlers have publicly blamed one another for the mishaps, which included fans and entourage members heckling the MCs. You be the judge. Who won? Check out fan reactions and the video footage after the jump!
Fans that were in attendance didn’t have anything great to say about the performance either:
“#battlerap #dizaster vs. #Cassidy let’s just say it was so heated that it got #shutdown” –tina_chuldzh
“Had issues the entire time. #Cassidy choked twice during round 1 and had basic “Cat in the Hat” rhymes. It was BAD… Caninus was better in rd 1….
But Cass’ crew caused probs and we got nothing. Real weak. #Dizaster #Dizastervscassidy #Cassidyvsdizaster @mrdizaster” –ryandepaul“Battle was trash cassidy washed the fuck up nd this was the most low budget event in battle rap history”- wrizzysoraw
Update:
Yesterday the Ether Rap Battle League attempted to facilitate one of the most anticipated battles of the year and failed miserably. Due to technical difficulties and the fire marshall shutting down the event Cass & Diz were forced to hold a rematch in a garage today! Here is the full rematch. No sound problems, and no crowd interference. Who took it, Cassidy or Diz?
