Rap legends Big Daddy Kane and KRS-One battled it out on Verzuz, Sunday night, playing hits from throughout each artist's storied careers.

The night was kicked off with some technical difficulties on Kane’s part, but KRS-One wasn't buying it.

“There ain’t no fucking technical difficulties — he’s hiding in the dressing room," he joked.

Eventually, Kane made his way to the stage and kicked things off with “Just Rhymin” featuring the late Biz Markie.
