The headline battle from URL's "Double Impact" is the biggest (English-language) battle of the year so far. The star power of the four emcees involved (combined with the added controversy of the battle getting cut short when it got physical) brought in a huge number of views.
Gun Titles vs. NWX did 226K views in the first 24 hours. Hitman vs. Surf from SM4 did 240K.

Now, after about 10 days, it has done 870,000 views, almost doubling Dizaster vs. Iron Solomon as the most viewed battle of the year.
The battle has inspired a torrent of reaction, but start by watching TomBig7's remix of Gun Titles' first round over 50 Cent's "I Get Money" beat.
