Wake Up Show: Hieroglyphics Vs. Hobo Junction Battle (1994)
Perhaps one of the most legendary rap battles in hip-hop history, Hieroglyphics faced off against the Hobo Junction on The Wake Up Show on November 18th, 1994. Legend has it that the beef apparently started because after Casual had Saafir appear on his Fear Itself debut, Casual was supposed to return the favor and make an appearance on Saafir’s Box Car Sessions debut, which never ended up happening. The end result was a live battle on San Francisco’s KMEL between the two crew. The outcome was pretty much a draw – some argued that Saafir’s crew came harder, however Casual and Souls of Mischief were battling with actual off the dome freestyles, which Hobo Junction did not.
