Conceited Spits A Freestyle About His Mitchell & Ness Throwback Jerseys

[\\//JohnnyCA$H\\//]

A freestyle is just a verse or rap about anything that doesn't go with a song, doesn't necessarily have to be off the top. As a matter of fact off the top rappers are few and far between nowadays, very few can do it well especially over a beat. Even then, the style is outdated since back in the early 90s and 80s all raps were ABC 123. Today's MCs are 10x more intricate so freestyling off the top doesn't really thoroughly demonstrate your lyrical ability

yea i guess i just associate the word with a different type of spitting, regardless i like the track, props

writtens > freestyles

Maybe I should say writtens > off the top, because I define freestyling like @WatergunTalk was saying

I give credit to anyone that can freestyle off the top at a high level, but it's never gonna be better than well written material. I will never understand why you would really want to hear someone come off the top but whatever

Because it's somehow considered more authentic

I'm not sure how to hate on this. These fools couldnt even fathom doing something as smooth as the simple breath control needed to flawlessly execute those two drops but are on here hating.

Now, I will say I hope he's got his "bred" in more than just SHOES and an un-owned piece of shelter tho.

That's one of the biggest myths in hip hop...very few can go off the top and even in the 80's and 90's most of these guys were spitting writtens. Listen to Big Daddy Kane's definition of what a freestyle is...what Conceited did there was definitely a freestyle.

Man that ain't no damn myth, a freestyle IS off the top, it just so happens that the word has evolved to have dual meanings in hip hop, and written verses are ALSO classified as freestyles. And yeah, people have been spitting writtens as freestyles for a long while now, but back then it was much more taboo and unacceptable.

The shyt has evolved to something totally different now. You used to at least have to front like your shyt was off the top. You had nikkas writing their "freestyles" to mimic what a REAL freestyle would sound like. nikkas had to make sure they shyt wasn't TOO good to at least have nikkas considering the fact that it really was off the top, because you would really get called out for that shyt. It wouldn't be career ending (maybe in the old battle rap circuit) but it was definitely a taboo. Or nikkas would have a few written lines they would throw in the middle of authentic freestyles to create a hybrid freestyle. Now, nikkas just blatantly spit written shyt where it's no chance in hell that the shyt is off the top. So that's how the meaning has evolved, but make no mistake, a TRUE freestyle is, and forever will be, off the top of the dome.

And more of these rappers can go off the top then you think, although I do admit that it is becoming somewhat of a lost art, but only because nikkas don't practice it like back in the day. Some of my favorite freestylers are Common, Eminem (hate to say it cause I really don't like his music, but he was raw on the freestyle tip early on) Snoop Dogg, Mos Def, Redman, The whole Houston Screwed Up Clique (and Swisha House) movement from before everyone got deals. And I'm basically naming mainstream artist, I could go on naming more underground artist.

Okay breh, you know more about this shyt than Big Daddy Kane and Kool Moe Dee

nikka please, I didn't say that. Refute anything I said in that post. Everything was facts. Like I said, a REAL freestyle is off the top, the word has just evolved to mean pre written rhymes as well. You got nikkas out here like Riff Raff dropping real freestyles and you talking about very few people can go off the top, and that's just not true. They just prefer not to because it's not a lauded skill like that anymore. I barely disagreed with you nikka. If you not gonna call a rhyme that's off the top a freestyle, what are we supposed to call it?
