ERB isn't the first, though they are the biggest. Everybody doing rap battles online will get compared to ERB, whether it's fair or not. They certainly didn't invent rap, or battles, or online rap battles.

I think people should reward innovation more, and worry less about whether or not something was copied/inspired by the artists that came before them.
