Timebomb Presents GRIND TIME Pittsburgh Battle

Last weekend for one of the last warm nights of the summer, we invited our homies from Grind Time to host Pittsburgh's battle for 2010. Held in the lower level of the building, with a large crowd of hip hop heads, lyrical observers, and of course the battlers up next in line, the night kicked off with the camera clicking on, the crowd holdin it down, and the host of the evening, Real Deal, a true Grind Time champion, kickin it off right. With a underground hip hop atmosphere of tagged walls, battle circuts, and lots of close wins, brought to you by the 412's top tier opponents, this was an event you did not want to miss. There wasn't one battle that was an easy decision, which I soon found out when Real asked me to judge our mans Boca, who killed it off top! Anymal battled PG Skillet, dudes from DC, which turned out to be by far the closest battle of the night. And of course who could forget Doc Waffles? Feel bad if you missed this, but keep your eye out for it on both youtube and world star, with a debut on it's way. Who else would provide the burgh with the largest hip hop battle league? TBC of course.
