Eyedea Freestyle @ Scribble jam 2001 [R.I.P.]

[uliB11]

ONE OF THE SICKEST FREESTYLES

[Cgreene159]

beast

[MadSteveo957]

I never found a better freestyler haha

[risingpauler]

goddamn eyedea has sooo much steeze in this rest in peace mike

[risingpauler]

@Maurice1340d the last beat at the end?

[714Octor]

pubic elves lol dope af

[Machinelf]

Now pop on Edan's part too please :)

[iluvrocknrap]

this blow my mind every single time is listen to it

[lilmale]

you could get the greatest rappers of all time, put them in a room together and tell them to write the greatest song ever. than watch eyedea freestyle off the top and destroy it

his brain is just too quick.

[cullenhart1]

Eyedea I and Chris will prove your unstoppable imagination. \

[cullenhart1]

This type of freestyle will prosper. Written grindtime battles can only go so far. Eyedea wasnt human he was alien and didnt die hes just teaching god how to rap

[cullenhart1]

Its time for a new. All emcee's should be snapping at this point.

[cullenhart1]

He was so magic. Casting spells n shit.

[poorfa4s]

"jus had a little bit of energy inside of me to give to yall" word. the energy flows on brotha

[TheBootyclapperz]

whats the first beat on this?

[iArt1st]

2:40 Damn I didn't know Redbull exists for so long..

[jag57505]

rest in peace eyedea.

one

[UglyFaceHearoz]

he just killed that like no one there recognized

[Konartizem]

@brawleeoe thankyou, it was driving me crazy especially since I own Phone Tap on a cd.

[Konartizem]

Whats the last bit around 2:30 mark?

[brawleeoe]

@Konartizem the firm phone tap

[SniperonDrugsz]

Rest In Paradise

[ionlysmoketobbaco]

i wish he spit to that the whole song he was killing it

[sdkt411]

@ionlysmoketobbaco I Looked down further. Its extra extra djpremier thats why you'd have to love it. Iv wanted to know this song since i watched this scribble video like 8 years ago. edan does a sick written to the beat before eyedea freestyles over it.

[ionlysmoketobbaco]

@sdkt411 ya i found it earlier too ,thanks anyways for the reply and upload !

[420HighRyder]

@sdkt411 dog its not a dj premier beat its a dr. dre beat i know this cuz i got that shit on a dre insrutmental vinyl

[ionlysmoketobbaco]

whats that first beat?

[abomicals]

the second beat, damn it's on the tip of my tongue, and it's killing me that i don't remember what it is!!! somebody has to know. anyone?

[Maurice1340d]

@abomicals the second beat starting around 25 seconds is... smut peddlers - josie.. it's on youtube

[abomicals]

@Maurice1340d sorry, i meant the beat in the last few seconds of the video...

[SaidUno]

@Maurice1340d what's the first beat?

[h8rzhate]

@abomicals josie is what eyedea freestyles to. phone tap was the next beat

[iluvrocknrap]

Ok This The Nuttiest freestyle i have ever heard!!! fuck RiP Eyedea

[jbotos1]

best most mellifluous sonorous rapid rapper/freestyler/battler of all time was Eyedea RIP you are dearly missed....why won't eminem die? seems the axiom proves itself 'only the good die young' suppose those manufactured performer fake studio dre. babies will persist eternally; Fame is not talent, you've never seen him battle in reality have ya, kid is a joke and a marketing gimmick sorry to inform ya 8-mile was not a documentary, LEAVE THOSE CANNED PUNCHLINES @ HOME & BRING YOUR MIND TO A BATTLE

[ericsentochnik]

@jbotos1 I'll be the first to say that Eyedea was one of the greatest lyrical rappers of all time, but dissing Eminem makes you sound retarded. Em is a legend in the game, not just on the mainstream game. Ask any rapper who's been someone (underground or mainstream), and they'll tell you em has been one of the most influential rappers in the last 15 years. He's blended lyrical content with the ability to grab mainstream attention like no one has ever before.

[collisionfuse9k]

@jbotos1 dude eminem was sick wen he was underground i mean he even gave mc juice a run for hismoney when they battled!

[gongargongar]

haha, they're like little pubic elves, swingin from the trees, thinkin it they ride my dick they'll be a dope MC. So dope.

Still love you Eyedea. RIP

[bdubs360]

holy shit he was just spittin to spit???? Thats awesome

[Thailur5194]

R.EYE.P



[baskunoreppin]

One of the best spitters to ever live much love. R.I.P.

[SlickNickRog]

Legend.. Enough said.

[19kingj]

R.I.P.

[Maurice1340d]

@MegaBeamish Yeah, he died last October... google it for more info

[SeanOMatic]

@MegaBeamish

Michael Larson, R.I.P

[bradn6919]

@MegaBeamish October 16, 2010, yes he's dead. Search "underground poet" on google and click the FIRST link; explains death and life - AMAZING ARTICLE!!!!

R.I.P. Eyedea

[MegaBeamish]

@bradn6919 Thanks will do. 

[SOADownsnubs]

@bradn6919 damn, that's my birthday.

[GBInfamous805]

@MegaBeamish He died like 6 months ago :/

[x0Bio0x]

whats the first beat? its dope.

[mantomielle]

I'm jealous of the Dopeness

[OM3N1R]

I was a naive kid driving 39 hours across the meat of America to see my heros.

I saw Eyedea do this.

78 hours driving was worth it.

Pubic elves

[toises987]

I can't believe people would rather listen to Wiz khalifa and Kid cuddi and those other failure rappers. it literally leaves me dumbfounded.

[robGthewave]

@toises987 its a different style of music. wiz doesnt claim he's the best rapper. he just does his thing

[toises987]

@robGthewave Wiz isn't as bad as an offender as Drake, Cuddi, Waka Flocka n shit. kind of high when I wrote that my bad. Even if I still don't listen to Wiz.

[LunatikLiam]

does anyone know why eyedea didn't enter the 2001 scribble jam freestyle contest?

[sourdeeznuts]

@LunatikLiam he retired from battling after losing to Brother Ali in 2001

[LunatikLiam]

@sourdeeznuts I'm surprised to hear that 'cause there's a video of him battling Brother Ali on You Tube and he was ripping him pretty good, calling him a white albino Lol It's a short clip though, Is that the battle you were talking about?

[LunatikLiam]

@sourdeeznuts The battle i was talking 'bout was @ Scribble Jam 2000, my bad. Does anyone have a video of that 2001 battle though?

[cashcarstar2]

@LunatikLiam nahh man, he stopped battling because he became a judge at scribble, its not that he retired.. he fuckin ripped it up at blaze battle and stuff.. he just became a judge thats all

[LunatikLiam]

@cashcarstar2 someone told me on here though that he retired after he lost to brother ali, i'm confused LOL anyways, it's all good. Eyedea was the shit.

[Maurice1340d]

@LunatikLiam This wasn't part of the MC battle competition.. there was a cypher right after the show and Eyedea was part of it! This is the video of it (Eyedea only)

[LunatikLiam]

@Maurice1340d yeah i know homie, dope freestyle by eyedea.

[RebirthMusic2010]

whats the beat thats playing?

[METTI1986LA]

@RebirthMusic2010

paula perry - extra extra prod. by dj premo

[thelionsareatthedoor]

I like all sorts of music really (bar pop), but I've never really been that heavily interested in hip hop. after this... <3

[corndog009]

i wish i could tear shit up like that

[guitar16]

one word: DAAAAAAAMMMNNN!

rEsT iN eTeRnAl pEaCe bRoThEr

[JayDekkos]

Straight murdering the mic!

[Aetrack]

also, I know what you cats are saying about wayne, but we gotta just look to the positive aspect of things... when people bitch about wayne, it makes underground hip hop fans look like alternative music snobs that think they;re too cool for the mainstream... just keep it real playaz, lifes too short to complain about other people... GET YOURS

[Aetrack]

my favorite eyedea freestyle, this could be compared to his wake up show session RIP

[mutedmakequiet]

@Aetrack

Eyedea has waaaay better freestyles. he's pretty drunk here i think

[obeytheory]

My god. He straight ripped it. RIP.

[coolm10]

whats the beat?

[3yedea]

lil wayne is not even worthy enough to be mentioned on this page, so let his name end with my comment. r eye p finally free

[1afterthep]

It's not just Lil Wayne that sucks but also his kind of autotune music.

[barberbeau]

Here's my impression of Lil Wayne - "I like my women like I like my weed - Sticky". Corny-ass punchlines he doesn't even write himself.

[italllies]

True Lyricist !

[SailxVortex]

2:00 This is my nutsack, CLIIIIIIIMMMMMMMBBBBBBBB!!!

lmfaooooo!!!

[glass509]

@SailxVortex lol it killed me when he said "they're like little pubic elves"

[nickmonsein]

somebody know whats the name of the beat pleasze¿

[Freshtymer]

Man, he's the most impressive freestyler I've ever seen.

[fathead5379]

Does anyone know these intrumentals or know of some good djs or instumental albums to look up

[EasyLuckyFree50]

I love watching this and noticing how he is literally thinking of stuff as he goes and is flow is so narrative. Then I watch Drake do a "freestyle" reading off of his cellphone. hahaha.

[diszkidwaszheresz]

ayo a tru artist doesnt need to brag about being number one, most of these rappers are better thn lido wayne nd thr doin it for fun/

come on son, lil wayne v.s eyedea no compitition we already know who won/

ayo try to spit at me on my own home town? ur one funny clown, liike cain nd brock u wont last one round/

eyedeas thots were ment to b profound not hes sitting in heaven on a lounge/ he laffing at u for tryna say main streams better thn this,but ths only cuz ur full shit,if i wus try ud die.

[Shotzsz]

If someone could tell me where I can get a shirt exactly like that one or maybe in a different color I would GREATLY appreciate it!<3

[kellykratzke]

RIP to one of the illest rappers of our time!!!!

[iluvrocknrap]

Did my mind just explode?? BECAUSE THIS SHIT IS HOT AS FUCK

RIP eyedea i mis your intensity already

[iluvrocknrap]

anyone who likes lilways is fag its just that simple and its impossible to even to even think of him when the best rapper ever does his freestyle

RIP MY FAV RAPPER EYEDEA WE ALL MISS YA ALLREADY

[iluvrocknrap]

@byro1884 k thats not true about that i dont think he did that ok first of all if you like lil wayne then your A FAG thats all . and second anyone with a brain can figure out that lil wayne is garbage and is a sell shit ass rapper are fucking serious byro just shut the fuck up and dont ever say lil wayne is good on here because eyedea allways will be million times better then that faggit ass crack baby pussy bitch lil wayne deserves to die not eydea

[bradn6919]

@iluvrocknrap I like the fact how you say that wayne was the one who deserved to die, not eyedea, but in a way Eyedea's death is going to make SOOOOOO MANY people reach out and listen to his music now, and the ones who were fans when he was alive can tell their friends and he will always remain an underground LEGEND....

If Wayne died, ppl would call him a martyr and his popularity would skyrocket. THAT WOULD SUCK!!!!

[ethanyesplz]

@byro1884 They don't even know what killed him yet, at least when Eyedea sold albums there was..you know...music on them?



[Ivanchukov1]

@ethanyesplz apparently records sold means lyrical talent. has lil wayne ever battled a day in his life? or freestyled something that wasnt prewritten?

[ethanyesplz]

@Ivanchukov1 I dont think hes made any real music yet, so maybe hell freestyle something when that happens

[iluvrocknrap]

@ethanyesplz he knows eyedea is far better then lil wayne thats why he came to this in the first place

[bradn6919]

@ethanyesplz HAHAHA hell yea, Eyedea not only made great music, but I would put him on my Top 5 list of best lyricists, up there with Eminem.

Remember, BEST LYRICIST, not rapper. Not to say Eyedea wasn't a good rapper, he was great, but the way he could freestyle amazingly while making it look sooooo easy, and the way he created so many different genres of music and still made them sound great was astonishing.

RIP Micheal, you're music will keep u alive in many ppl's hearts for a LONG TIME

[diszkidwaszheresz]

@byro1884

lil waynes album came out but hes not geting paid so hes still a bum/ eyedea kicked it his style wus wicked/

thr so much to talk bout him, yo his music wus speaking out to me it feals liike i wus his friend, lil wayne steps up to the mic wit eyedea? yo tht wuld of ben his end, enof sed/

u wanna see a tru artist listin to eadea his thots were so deep liike an abyss but he explaind it to us so we saw thru the darkness, R.I.P were gunna miss him...

[bradn6919]

@byro1884 I love Wayne as a person, but his music is absolute GARBAGE, Eyedea is better than him deceased!

DON'T YOU EVER COMPARE EYEDEA TO LIL WAYNE, ITS APPLES AND ORANGES, MOLDY ASS ORANGES AT THAT!!!

[bradn6919]

@byro1884 +Eyedea didnt 'shoot' any dope, nor did Wayne. & what does it matter whether it killed some1 or not, it doesn't mean Wayne is 'stronger' by any means, Eyedea's death was kind of a fluke when you actually KNOW THE DETAILS!

Since birth he never got more than 3-4 hrs of sleep/night, and THAT is what basically killed him.

Because he went 2 bed on his belly, fell asleep after being awake for days, & vomited in his sleep, he couldn't awake & ended up choking & dying.

[danbearpig84]

@bradn6919 then why would his mom try to hide that and not disclose it to the public?

[FLip93514]

His music was his tale, and though the story has been tragically cut short, the complexity of his rhymes seem to still hold truths that will only be uncovered in time....

[imfreeformlife]

@FLip93514

i just read that in an article at

ology.com

credit your sources yo!

(the author was JT Langley)

[bradn6919]

@FLip93514

[UseHERname93]

[iluvrocknrap]

FUCK I LOVE eyedeas freestyles its soo sad hes gone and we can never experience this again R.I.P Eyedea You are the best rapper ever in my books

[mongrel420]

"fans got no hands so they start clapping with their ear to their shoulder?"

that line was dope

[RegSoFresh]

oh fuck, RIP Eyedea, that beat is so nice, anyone know what it is?

[HearingEveryRhyme]

This is spirit, you can just see that Eyedea lets it fly out, he doesn't need to force it. What a great MC, he'll always be my favorite.

R.EYE.P.

Eyedea you changed my life, you helped me embrace me.

[invectrum]

Always on point. Always freestyle.

[SephirothGFX]

Gives me the goose bumps every time I hear it. its like he channels his soul through the mic

[andresss862]

@mutedmakequiet Are You Kidding?This Shit Cool..

[imsoSCENExCORE]

eyedea > yak ballz bullshit

[danpayne118]

please stop mentioning lil wayne or soulja boy on every fucking video, every true hip hop fan knows they are shite, but i came to watch these videos to forget about those pricks and people talk about them on every hip hop video your just giving them free advertising

[marcos7878587]

YOO wats THe name Of THIs BEat answer pleazee!!

[TheDissendentsCRUE]

@marcos7878587 tears on m guitar- taylor swift

[marcos7878587]

HAha Wat BEat is this??

[skaterzam]

haha murs just walks by, murs once walked by me at rock the bells, we exchanged a few words. Dope ass freestyle!

[ericfunquist]

that wasn't murs. It's Kevin Beacham

[Tmacadellic]

phenomenal, this is my favorite eyedea freestyle ive heard with the wake up show freestyle coming in 2nd. The flows so sick

[lokust77]

iLL

[coolm10]

so dope

[drdre420xxx]

very nice. i do like em better, but this is a lot better than wanna be's like lolwayne

[edis17]

I'm sorry why the hell do people say this guy is one of the best freestylers...

this is stupid.

[IamPerplexity]

lil wayne and soulja boy are the best rappers of all time

if you agree kill your self

[TheLEMON8ICE]

hahaha

[axele0]

@IamPerplexity soulja boy ??? really ? he cant even spit good. Wayne is the best i agree  but soulja ent even on the same lvl

WEEZY!!!

[stacks6969allday]

@IamPerplexity i think eminem should kill them 2 verbley and in real life

[mutedmakequiet]

@stacks6969allday

you suck

[stacks6969allday]

@mutedmakequiet o yea i suck i suck on your moms clit all day long while she screams my name and tells u im ur daddy nigga

[mutedmakequiet]

@stacks6969allday

Well, I disagree with your comment, lol. Eminem wouldn't touch a proper freestyler with a pole.

[KevinNash420]

you dont have to state that lil wayne sucks, anyone with half a brain knows that, and i hope all the people watching this vid are real heads because nobody else deserves to see it

[S1KK]

@KevinNash420 word the FUCK up!!!!

[MakavelixWuTang]

immortal technique doesnt suck, if you dont like him thats cool. if you havnt listened to rev . vol. 2 which is the best hip hop album ive ever heard, every track is great

[MakavelixWuTang]

white people are the main supporters of real hip hop music. when you go to a mos def show, MF doom show, RA show. its sadly all white people. the african american radio stations dont even know what hip hop is. radio stations in New york play southern hip pop garbage all day (gucci, wayne and soulja boy)

[pokemoms]

Gucci, wayne, soulja are all rap, not hip hop :P

[MakavelixWuTang]

i said hip pop, and no gucci, wayne and soulja boy dont rap either. sometimes wayne does. but its urban pop music

[regularasselo]

radio stars dont rap. its all just dr seuss rhyming. well except wayne. he just moans in similar tones

[PrettyBoiFloydKB]

@pokemoms uhhhhh dude, rap is the music of hip hop.

[JackAustinFilms]

Ok, let's clear this up.

RAP stands for Rhythm and Poetry. Lil Wayne has neither of this, and therefore is just shit. Now, Eyedea on the other hand has sick beats and strong lyrics. His new album is incredible and some of the lines are just astounding.

"Screwed up tryin to squeeze 65 minutes out of an hour"

"No wonder we lost the battle, the counter culture can't count"

"When you've never been moved, it's hard to move on"

These are just off of the top of my head. Eydea is a brilliant rapper

[Jasonlords]

FUCK THAT CROWD! How can people not freak out when they hear shit that good.

[CostcoSamples]

so hot.

[welovepeace1348]

StrongIsland kid stop kidding yourself if you are that good i invite you to go and try to get a contract for anything or even land a gig .

[StrongIslandKid]

no fuckin joke im not tryn to be cocky but i freestyle just like this guy

[CamAmcintyre08]

wow i cant believe more people dont listen to this instead of that lil wayne shit

eyedea is ill
