LL Cool J: Ripper Strikes Back (Canibus Diss)

I'm just sayin alotta people give the lyrical content to Canibus...I'm personally a fan of this song more even though I bump them both.

you all really don't understand ll was and is a lyrical beast you need to listen to his early stuff and one other thing he ended canibus career so i guess he won.?

People have said that even though the lyrical content favors Canibus, LL still takes this battle home cause he put a new jumpstart on his career with this song. Listen to the two beats for this and Second Round Knockout, sounds like Canibus knows he is gonna lose and knows he has better lyrics but is still fightin for his life and LL just comes so hard and fierce it's over before it even starts.

LL started out battlin this was so easy for him

Can i bitch lost

LOL... I laugh when I hear this song cause a 6 year old coulda wrote this. Mike Tyson shoulda punched him in the mouth.

Muthafucka Where's the rhyme when you need it? /
First rule of lyrical war, NEVER repeat!

o and by the way...canibus was on tv callin this "garbage" but off camera him and clef flew eminem down to ask him if he wrote the song for ll. eminem spoke about this some years ago in an radio interview he did in london. so if ll's so trash then why were they confronting people on who wrote what. reason being because bis knew he fucked up!!

For all those who don't want to give LL his props for this are just str8 haters...when the east/west fued was going on ll did choose his and stayed loyal to it...say what you want about LL no matter how many radio singles he drops, movies he's in or tv shows, when it's time to battle the man doesn't run. How many emcees you know would have lasted after "2nd round KO"? The man took it throw some fired back and it was canibus carreer that got roasted

the reason why ll won is because nobodyt thought he could bring it like that anymore.

if it wasnt for Canibus, LL cool J would be retired. and one more thing.......Canibus lyrically destroyed LL, with 2nd round Knockout, which is also what is widely believed by the majority of the Hip Hop community. In fact some artists will say 2nd round knockout was one of the best 'diss' songs ever

ll killed canibus lisen to the lyrics 2 round ko sucked

call the paramedic and tell em that his pathetic, his lyrics aint energetic he's sweet as a diabetic

to say 99% of your fans dont exist is really a fairly shallow criticism. by this reasoning, i suppose the likes of britney and beyonce can make claim as being the most respected and "GOAT" because of the number of people who may be considered 'fans'. that just means there's more morons who buy LL cool j garbage.

LL killed him and probably could still anybody in the game right now but he is so big he dont even have to do this shit anymore because he is immortal in hiphop.

The only reason that people say that LL "won" is because he has more money and is more popular, and he's been in the game a lot longer than Canibus has. Canibus came out in like '98. LL has been out since like '84...before I was even born! I think people know the truth when they listen to the lyrics and insults.....there is no comparison. Bis ate LL alive with a chianti on the side.

THIS IS HOT

experience wise ur right.. but wen it comes to lyrical style, no one comes harder than Bis.. and yea i am an Old Skool head.. haha.. he is a pioneer, i give him that.. but he is messed for feeding fire to that beef.. Bis changed his verse but LL didnt.. thats sneaky!

not true....if you are an old skool head, you would definatley know LL is tha fukin man.....dude is a hip-hop pioneer, more than a ladies man...and as much as i respect canibus, he still aint shiiiit on LL...

ok, 99% of his fans dont exist
yet 99% of LL's fans wear high heels

Man, i luuurved this battle...'cause 99% of his fans dont exist'
ROFWL!!!!

He doesnt even go at canibus in this with facts. I mean the best diss's in the song are the ones to mike tyson and Wyclef. Canibus 2nd diss song Rip The Jacker even killed this shit. Canibus simply destroyed him. Even nas & Jay-Z said that.

man how can anyone say that LL didnt win cause after this canibus was so hurt he had to join the army to escape the shame

this is a joke compared to bus

sick, completely sick.
