The Cassidy vs. Freeway match is one of the most classic rap battles in Hip Hop, and has helped to play a role in the extreme popularity that the sport has gained over the years. While both men put forth a great effort, Freeway’s request to put on a beat by the end of the battle was translated as a sign of forfeiting the match. Cassidy’s relentless punchline style helped to influence the bar structures of many Battle Rappers who are popular today.
