having a rapping contest against someone else in front of an audience, where most of the lyrics are insults directed at the other rapper which have to rhyme at the same time.
1 rapper goes first, then after he's done its the other persons turn and then someone decides whos was better, or after the second rapper has finished the first one can go again if he has more to say.
if one of the rappers suck at rapping they can get boo'd off stage by the audience. (they usually let some of the audience come up and take the mic for a few minutes at the end)
watch 8 mile to see a rap battle

The condition of any aspect of life--events, words someone said, something you read, even nothing at all, who needs a reason?--calls up lines from rap songs. Takes you to a happy place more often than not.
Thanks to rapper Jean Grae for inspiring this definition. See first example below quoted by her on a certain social networking site:
"....and I can't even think of the word "blizzard", without saying- "what is it? A blizzard?" Rap tourette's."
Dowg, stop with the Tupac quotes for everything, old rap tourette's havin' *ss n*gga...

An awesome version of its U.S counterpart, Israeli rap utilizes sick beats, pounding bass, and a biblically badass language.

A hyper-egotistical poetic war of words and linguistic play.
The following is an example from Epic Rap Battles of History, a YouTube series
Miley Cyrus:
Let me guess, You're just here to hate
Well you can stand in the autograph line and wait
Cause I'm all twerk, I got all day
To Spit harsh words in this French maid's face
You died a virgin girl, who you think you're messing with?
It's Miley Cyrus, I'm the hottest thing since Britney, Bitch!
I'm getting lifted on that molly, get that party turned up
You getting lifted on a stake, get that body burned up
Had enough? It's my habit, when I grab the mic I milk it
You could say this rap is like my alter ego, cause I killed it!
Joan of Arc:
Lord, forgive me for the words I speak
I know the voices of the angels tell me to turn the other cheek
But I'm about to rip Hannah Montana's tongue out through here teeth
Je suis la fille en feu call me Katniss Everdeen
When it comes to bad bitches, I'm the patron saint
But I only get down on my knees when it's time to pray
I came to Frenchmen's aid in the time of need
Cause I'm the Maid of Orleans, You're the Mardi Gras beads, honey
My father taught me things your daddy couldn't teach ya
Your highest calling was a text from Wiz Khalifa
You gotta die for something, Miley, just picture your epitaph
Had the world watching, chose to show them all her flat ass
