Dumbfoundead gets in a fight during his freestyle battle!!

This is why you don't mess with Asians, cuz we all know martial arts. In this scenario though I think Dumbfoundead was the culprit here being in his opponent's face and all. Nice flying spinning kick, Dumb. Tatsumaki-Senpu kyaku!!!

Dumbfoundead makes his debut in King of the Dot and takes on Kid Twist. This freestyle battle is full of jokes and punch-lines.

Dumbfoundead - Rapper-O's MV

Dumbfoundead - Fun With Dumb

Dumbfoundead introduces a new cereal called Rapper-O's. This song has a really cheesy Leave It To Beaver feel to it. Haha you gotta love the intro of the song: "Rapper-O's? What the fuck is that?!" Rapper-O's is produced by Kato and is from Dumbfoundead's album Fun With Dumb.

Dumbfoundead - She Don’t Care (Live Performance)

Dumbfoundead - Fun With Dumb

MTV IGGY has released this video of Dumbfoundead doing a live performance for She Don’t Care for the Far East Movement and Epik High's Map the Soul Tour. The song is about a girl who, even though seems to be out of Dumbfoundead's leauge, takes a liking to him despite all the negatives in his life. She Don't Care can be found on Dumbfoundead's latest album release Fun With Dumb.

Dumbfoundead interviews Tablo from Epik High

After completing his Map The Soul tour in the United States, Tablo from Epik High did an interview with Dumbfoundead on behalf of The Urban Decadance right in Dumbfoundead's crib. It's a real short interview and the duration is about 6 and a half minutes. Its really interesting to see both Tablo and Dumbfoundead mesh together in this interview because on one hand, they are both Koreans who share the love of hip hop, but on the other hand they are shaped by two completely different cultures and different music scenes. When asked about the Korean music industry, Tablo said that that there isn't much diversity of music genres and everything is basically pop music. To top that off, Tablo was saying that because the way the Korean media is structured, it leaves no room for underground rap artists to get any media attention. Tablo also said that he was working on some tracks in Dumbfoundead's crib (collaboration track, hint hint).

Freestyle Battle - Dumbfoundead vs F.L.O.

Here's a hilarious freestyle battle between Dumbfoundead and F.L.O. battling for Grind Time's Battle from Battle of LA part 2. Dumbfoundead took the win after 3 rounds and then they had a promo overtime battle just for kicks.

Freestyle Battle - Dumbfoundead Vs The Saurus

Here's one of the main events on Grind Time's The Battle of the Bay: Dumbfoundead VS The Saurus, who is a 2-time Rap World Champion. This freestyle battle was held in Oakland, California on February 28, 2009. Dumbfoundead's strategy was to poke fun of The Saurus' face and complexion. The Saurus used a lot of Asian jokes, but I thought they were funny as hell. It was a great battle and in the end The Saurus was declared the winner.

The second video is an "honorary overtime" freestyle battle where Dumbfoundead and The Saurus were battling for the fun of it after the match decision.

Freestyle Battle - Tantrum VS Dumbfoundead

Someone on the Asian Rap Chat posted a really cool Grind Time freestyle battle between two Korean American rappers: Tantrum vs Dumbfoundead. Tantrum is from Union City, California and Dumbfoundead is from the Koreatown/Los Angeles area. The two emcees have very different rapping styles. Tantrum raps very aggressively and Dumbfoundead raps like a witty nerd from another planet (but it definitely delivers). In the battle you'll hear very funny Asian-related references. Both emcees did very well but at the end of the battle, Dumbfoundead was declared the winner by the judges. A definitely must-see battle!
