Phonte vs. Kanye West

by Kevin on October 16, 2008 · 12 comments

Phonte: “Hate (Phone)”
From the mixtape Separate But Equal (2006)

Kanye West: “Late”
From the album Late Registration (2005)

It’s another post of “Who spit it better?”…. the intelligent emcee against the fasionable emcee.  Phonte did a freestyle over Kanye’s “Late” on the DJ Drama Separate But Equal mixtape.  Kanye’s original was tha ish when it came out and still is.  But who spit it better?

Who spit it better?

MAN, I just ran into this. The Little Brother vs. Wu-Tang was a no brainer. LB all day, but this one……literally my two favorite rappers going head to head. Got to go with Phonte at the end of the day.
