Another rapper reppin’ Harlem, Loaded Lux made his appearance as a force within the early aughts, battling many of the elite contenders. Lux and Mook have bumped heads twice in the arena of battle rap and many considered these two as the elite veterans in the battle rap game. In the two previous battles, Lux has lost twice which, regardless, takes nothing away from his craft. Let’s just say that the battles between the two will be etched in the history books. Beloved is Loaded’s most recent project where it showcased his ability to put his hard battle rap lyrics in song format with great substance.

Iron Solomon is a Jewish battle rapper from NYC and he has proven himself with many of the best when it comes to the battle rap scene. He even signed a contract as a solo artist with Duck Down Music. Consider his battle with Mook a sad (and bad) day for Solomon as he got destroyed. Since then, and to this day, he has lost respect within the battle rap scene. His battle with Daylyt also went down in history as it brought something missing from battle rapping: The 2 MC’s had a very mutual respect for each other! At end of the day, there were ‘2’ winners. This is a highly recommended battle worth watching.

MC Jin (or simply “Jin”) is a recording artist originally from Miami but moved to NYC where he began his music career. Jin got his chance at fame and didn’t look back as he was given the chance to freestyle against an opponent on BET’s classic show 106 and Park. During this time, he won so many times on the show that the producers decided to unofficially retire Jin from the show as reigning champ. After his show success, he would gain the attention of Ruff Ryder records and where he would eventually sign to a recording contract with his first record “The Rest is History.”
