Kool Moe Dee

[Ill Boogie]

Okay is it me or does this dude just plain suck ass? I was watching a Direct Effect special about a Yo! MTV Raps cd that came out and they played Wild Wild West and wtf....... His rapping is horrible his dancing is ghey, and i never liked those glasses he wore!

[Lost Prophet]

Kool Moe Dee was dope. The Treacherous Three were dope.

[AllenB25]

LL had some classic battle with Kool Moe Dee

[Mister K]

You're right, WILD WILD WEST SUCKED, and even Kool Moe Dee will admit himself, cuz he's always stated that the records of his that always blew up were the one's where he dumb down the lyrics like Go See The Doctor and Wild Wild West....

Don't judge Kool Moe Dee's whole legacy just by one song, cuz there was more to him than that

For starters he invented the way MC's battle today that sucker MC dissing

yeah, Moe's battle with LL was good, but Moe Dee's classic famous battle is the Kool Moe Dee vs. Busy Bee

remember that folks??

[AllenB25]

ive only heard about all these infamous battles bc i would've been too young to even know what was goin on......the only music i knew back then was prince and michael jackson...haha.... they were hella good tho

.....anyway the one battle i really want to know about is one that took place between KrsOne and someone else....im not sure who it was, but he was the most respected battle rapper at the time.....it may have been Kool Moe Dee, im not sure .......
but anyway here's what i was told.....Kool Moe
Dee or whoever it was in concert (not a huge venue, but big enough) and was freestylin then looked at the crowd and said "ill give any of yall a $100 if u can beat me" .....and a very young (not well known at the time, so im thinkin like '85) KrsOne rushed the stage and pullled out $1000 and said "nah screw that ill put up a grand to You (the rapper) or anyone here that thinks they can beat me" ....and the whole crowd went nuts and KrsOne ripped the mic and everyone there.............maybe u know aobut this one
