This is one of those discussions that always gets overblown cause the "purists" say it's gotta be off the top but the actual legends (like Kane) say that it's a verse with no set topic or length.

Next we'll be discussing if rappers have to write their own lyrics to be considered authentic.

But hey whatever gets clicks

Is there a name for spitting off the top of the dome?

Cause that's one thing and writing is a different thing

So if all freestyles are actually written rhymes "with no topic" AKA 85% of raps ever written...

Then why is there this whole entirely different more impressive way of rhyming - off the top of the dome - that just has no name at all

That's fukcing stupid

Anybody debating whether a freestyle is off the top of the head prolly can't freestyle and is making an excuse for themselves.

So whatever you call it, you ain't a real MC if you can't do it. How bout that?

By a freestyle is non written. Non composed. Off the top of the head. Period. Any "experts" who disagree are wrong or they are fronting trying to save face
