[Im Kemet Rocky & I like penis]

only time i see a nikkas freestyle is on sway in the morning, other than that most nikkas just dont freestyle anymore. on the other hand we got lame ass cacs from uk,canada, and australia doing freestyles and rap battles, what the fukk happening? is hip hop culture being exported/exploited?

the material released by these artists are frestyles. random thoughts juxtaposed unto unfinished beats.

What do you mean by freestyle...?

Damn near every rap verse being released today is a freestyle...?

Freestyle was never about spitting BRAND NEW rhymes on the spot...Freestyles have always been a combination of pre-written, pre-thought of and brand new rhymes...

That's why it is called "freestyle"...You can go from the streets to science to drug dealing to helping build the community to intergalactic space travel to politics and so on and so forth...

The average rapper today is damn near freestyling every verse, and letting a HOT beat carry them...

If these rappers are actually writing the stuff I am hearing, then they dumb fcuks, and the fans are even DUMBER for buying into these childish violent materialistic unthoughtful rhymes...

The world is BIGGER than the average rap rhyme...

That's exactly what I had in mind...

I am glad rappers actually admit that they are just freestyling, because the stuff I am hearing can't possibly be written by individuals with above average intellect...

That's exactly what I am talking about...

Some dweeb turned the word "freestyle" into some "top of the dome actually spittin" bullshyt...But what does that actually mean...? When many of the freestyles in the 90's are actually verses in rapper's songs...

Freestyles are and have ALWAYS been pre-written/pre-meditated rhymes...And then Eminem comes out with "8 Mile" and everybody is now nostalgic about something that never existed...

if you grew up in NY in the 80's freestyles meant off the top of the dome...dudes started pre-writing or using verses from their LP because they didn't have confidence in their freestyle game and didn't want to embarrass themselves with a wack rhyme

 

[Jhoon]

if you cant freestyle, youre not dedicated to the culture. but in this environment who really cares about the culture? believing in the cultute is borderline counterproductive the.

I salute any rapper that can spit off-the-top.

It is a 'true MC trait' as Q-tip put it.

Let's be real though. You want your favorite rapper to spit some premeditated fire on a track.

(1) That's not what KRS One and GZA think...I would take their word over yours because they actually sold records in the game and they were/are heavily involved in hip hop...

(2) 99.9% of so called "off the top" rhymes are NOT that impressive...Fan boyz wanna act like rappers are/were conceptualizing and spitting "Poet Laureate 2" at the drop of a hat...

Most "off the top" rhymes are Big Tygger spitting in the Rap City booth...Any thing deeper than that was either pre-written or pre-thought way in advance...

Quality material takes time develop...

Good to know I'm not the only one thinking this.

If KRS said it I stand corrected cuz I know he goes 'off the dome' alot....GZA I don't think I've ever heard him go off the top....but check niccas like Craig G, Supernatural, Juice....they beasts off the top
