Aftermath's Slaughterhouse and TDE's Black Hippy are two of the illest crews in hip-hop. Both, killed the BET Hip Hop Awards Cyphers, and it was Joell Ortiz and Joe Budden that gave the best responses to Kendrick Lamar's "Control" verse. Some rap fans have wondered what would happen if Slaughterhouse (Budden, Ortiz, Royce da 5’9″, Crooked I) faced off against Black Hippy (Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock, Ab-Soul) in a head-to-head rap battle. Slaughterhouse spoke on the hypothetical contest on RapFix Live. According to Crooked, his team would come out on top. “Let me tell you something, that’s not a shot, because I really appreciate what they do,” said Crooked. “But as a rapper, I feel like I’m supposed to believe that. When I get on the court, nobody could see me. That’s just what I’m supposed to do. But that doesn’t stop me from being a fan of other great lyricists.” Royce feels that the match would not pair up easily. His perspective is that the two groups take different approaches to their rapping styles and the winner would be decided mostly on the preference of the judges. “I don’t think that we’re in the same lane,” added Royce. “I think that we get compared to them because we’re crews. But I’m not so sure that me and Schoolboy could really go at each other, with what he does, versus what I do. It’s not really the same thing.” Although, the two crews definitely have completely different styles, it is no guess as to who would come out on top. Slaughterhouse would obviously be victorious. Don't get me wrong, every single member of Black Hippy can rap their a$$ off, but every member of Slaughterhouse are seasoned vets. They have all been rhyming for the last two decades; not to mention, they came up in the battle rap era. While Kendrick and Jay Rock would most likely hold their own Schoolboy Q and Ab-Soul would have some trouble. Even though Soul is the second best MC in all of TDE, his unconventional style lacks the aggression and quick whit needed for battle rap. As for Schoolboy, he can spit but not nearly as good as good as any of the members of Slaughterhouse. None the less it would be an epic battle, to say the least.
