Well I did find this freestyle. No longer than a minute and thirty seconds long, the video shows DMX and Jay-Z trading verses backstage at the Hard Knock Life Tour in 1999. You've probably already seen this, it's old but I love it. So I guess this will have to do for now, right?

Throwback | Jay-Z & DMX Freestyle (1999)
So. Yesterday I was saying on Twitter how I wished that the battle between Jay-Z & DMX in the 1990s was captured on video. The way Sauce Money and Ski Beatz described the face-off between the two hip-hop greats sounded too epic - both standing on pool tables with an immense crowd surrounding them going at it for five hours straight. Amazing.
