ELLIOT NESS vs HOLLOWMAN (One of the best battles in PHILLY History!) January 12, 2003

January 12, 2003 one of the best battles in Philadelphia history would take place between 2 of the cities heavyweights, ELLIOT NESS and HOLLOWMAN. This was part of the GARAGE BATTLE that was orchestrated between members of Take Down Records and Ice City. Although neither MC was apart of either crew, the night basically turned into a free for all and some of the best rose to the top to make history. At the time, Ness was nationally known for MAKING DA BAND and tearing up the underground scene through mix tapes and DVD appearances with his crew YHM. Hollowman represented his crew the Paper Chasers and was well known in the city as one of the best on the underground. He was a regular at Club Flow's showcases and battles, and his crew was heavy on the mixtape scene. The stars were aligned this night and the rest is history. This battle broke down doors for the underground rap scene in Philly with the audio making it's way onto Power99 FM's Friday night underground radio show (The Come Up Show), and it was regularly requested for years to follow.
