[russrusso75]

Is that Mc Search in the crowd

[Flynndy]

When Em went in I got goosebumps.. Shieeeet

[InsaneDrummer99]

not gonna lie i like this more than the shady 2.0 cypher.

[prizmeno7]

Props to all 3, reppin the art of MC'ing

[conciousness88]

aotp needs to do one of these

[TheMusicfiend99]

All of them killed it

[shadowdon07]

Eminem just went in and murdered this beat, classic

[MrBug96]

@ramennoodlechef Not me. I'm 15 and I love KRS One, Inmortal Technique, and Chino XL.

[BigMeeks512]

All Real Hip Hop Heads Know Black Thought Killed this..He's Top 5 Material.He's just a BEAST!!

[J2DopeOfficial]

Mos definitely killed this but Em went in hard! Em still king of cyphers

[Bam2106]

Eminem without a doubt is one of my favorite rappers but Mos Def KILLED this shit and Em did great too but Def all the way for best :)

[prizmeno7]

dope.



[MaakDaM]

Eminem was not on Black's level get off his dick

[MaakDaM]

Bars over bullshit

[IchiR0kuden4sh1]

2:42 dude behind em is really diggin it

[MrBeast10100]

they all killed different rappers,different styles.....mos def is a dimond in a sea of rhinestones.

[KALLEMARC1]

Eminem was fast but his lyrics and flow were average. Was just fast.

[audric]

They all killed it. Show love for all three. However, you must be deaf or not know rap if you deny the complexity of Eminem's rhymes.

[BrokenGS]

vGuess not

[mkoroma97]

em is the best rapper alive thumbs up if you agree!!

[screwedupclick79]

V notice no one likes TheGeniexhiChannel's comment. mos def and black thought wrecked it harder on this one

[MrCamRellim]

eminem is the best hands down, the others dont come close. His rhymes are complex and smart, the other two may have similes metaphors and whatever figurative language you want, but not once does eminem say he is the best, while thats all the other two are rapping about, themselves

[TheGeniExhiChannel]

like this if you only came here for Eminem

[sonottiny]

WOW that was fucking impressive ,case closed

[Emajanashun]

black thought = extremly underrated mc

[Eziokilla9595]

@Emajanashun But, also very respected.

[sjenkie9966]

My dick is so big, if I add another inch to it

You would swear when I raped you that you was actually into it

[killmariana]

i'm missing talib.

[Jmoneyy100]

Black Thought looks like a gangster version of Geoffrey from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air lol and They killed this cypher too btw

[adolfomsie]

black thought killed it,, he has the best rhymes by far

[MohamedVsTheWorld]

Mos Def enough said

[Reimer2009]

tittys



[baldheaddread32]

GIANTS DOING WHAT GIANTS DO !!!!!! DEVASTATING THE MIC AND DEMOLISHING THE CYPHER !!!!!!!

[youtubin306]

this is why there needs to be Pay Per View Rap Battle Tournaments!!!!!!

[STan7LY]

Mos def killed it by his flow

Black though killed it by his rhyme

Eminem killed it by his lyrics

that's means they all killed it 

[TheKahuna70]

imagine how it would feel to have to battle mos def X(

[linkthishit]

how the fuck can the top comment be about mos def? im sorry, am i the only person who watched eminem? u mad?

[ramennoodlechef]

@linkthishit How about ALL THREE gettin props???? I think anyone who just watched this and is born after 1990 are just getting nosebleeds trying to understand their complex lyrics. Kids today are too used to Hip Pop and not Hip Hop.

[JsinVEVO]

@ramennoodlechef born in 93, and i understand that each of them killed it.

[Chilltown95]

@ramennoodlechef Get the fuck outta here. I'm 95 and I understand exactly what they were saying and know what real rap is. Don't put a whole generation in a box like that. 

[WH0SEYODADDY]

@ramennoodlechef i was born in the 90's and i stilllll listened to mos, del, pharcyde etc.

[RyanCx3]

@ramennoodlechef Born in 93, and Kool G is my favorite rapper, not everyone in my generation falls for that commercial bullshit YMCMB puts out and calls hip hop

[piltypaul78]

@ramennoodlechef Careful what you say about your future. Psssst, if that was too complex for you (thats us) Children are the future and with the rappid advancements in edducation, I'd say I was learning your senior lessons in gradeschool, and I'm sure I've already surpassed your vocabulary and punctuation, not to mention our immaginations come up with way newer shit

[UnitedStatesOfSpange]

@ramennoodlechef well luckily i was born in the year 1990 and i still listen to BIG L :D

[HellzWindStaff420]

mos def and talib kweli are the illest around

[Keithbtheg44]

everyone sleepin on black thought. mos kills it by the way.

[PhoenixxH345]

Straight dope

[MrMelkFosho]

AH, eminem killed the cypher! I came for him

[MrCagon5]

Damn that boy eminem is a BEAST

[PeanutMagic]

Best Cypher ever.

[wowjelol1265]

@PeanutMagic

Im really happy for you, and ima let you finish, but Shady 2.0 cypher is the best cypher ever.

[XxSiickFoolxX]

@PeanutMagic na shady 2.0 cypher kills everything bro. i like this on too

[chazzywinz123]

It's so funny seeing the white guy look so out of place, and then he just kills it

[PeyotePaul]

Sorry but Mos Def killed eminem on this. Listen to his words man.

[jaygio]

@PeyotePaul sorry, he said a whole lot of shit that sounded nice but didn't mean much. I love Mos but Eminem said a lot more bar for bar then Mos Def.

[PeyotePaul]

@jaygio I disagree. I mean Eminem can flow harder than mos can any day, but he was just talking about random shit. Yea Eminem is one of the best of all time but Mos said so much more.... If you really break it down, mos is talking about Brooklyn, listen to every word he says. Mos's verse was more like poetry while Em's was more along the lines of him just ripping it.

[whatthehell2404]

@PeyotePaul Eminem flowin harder than Mos? no way man.

[ANDUAN93]

@jaygio Actually bro, if you didn't really follow the lyrics then sure you'd think Eminem said more. Em said just a ridiculous number of multisyllablic rhymes concentrated in non-sequitars with shock value braggadocio. When it comes to purity of rhyme, Mos' verse was a reflection (done in alliteration and rhyme, so absolutely no less command of the hip hop) of the neighborhoods in New York with an allusion to theology. It's all about personal taste but I think Mos said substantially more...

[iz2sicc]

@ANDUAN93 Em actually had a point he was making talking about how he used to be and such. Mos Def has always been super poetic with his rhymes. Black Thought is has a realness in his rhymes and sick metaphors. But yea, Eminem is a complete maestro with the syllables. However, he can be absolutely genius with the metaphors too. He just wasn't here. So I do basically agree with you. His verse here was more showcasing his insane ability to just rhyme shit.

[Gkt825]

even tho eminem had sick syncopated flow and witty rhymes, thought and def's verses had that deep passion, struggle, issue, history which really made em go hardd...also mos's voice had that smooth rush thats soo refreshing against eminems compact voice i cant explain it though but it flows like mad wit the beat

[cowmagnet]

There are differences between cyphers and freestyles, ppl...look it up.

[Chrisbeach5]

Its funny cause ive never heard eminems verse before.. EVER, but i have heard mos defs and black thoughts verse in a song LMAO, dont believe me? Look it up

[errdayz420]

2:08

[Moktarr101]

old school em was chilll

[85thaman]

@hushg2000 Em's method of attack is using his knowledge of what he knows and turning it into clever bars that keep on hitting. So by saying he isnt acknowledged by the hip hop community is a joke. No one and i repeat no is as clever as Em.

[Crayterm13]

That was disgusting, but why was Black Thought breathing so hard.

[sexiboi6968]

#mos deff. . . . dam

[TLOZgamer]

Mos Def - "Listen..."

[518goeshard]

Mos def = Filth he hollas at 518 thats my dude

[CadoTvRipENT]

Ahhhhh, havent heard em go that hard in a minute. god damn.

[Natuniva]

i am a huge Eminem fan.. but Black Thought from the Roots murdered this!

[Natuniva]

@Natuniva even though its from the Song "Doin It Again" :D

[TheSeriousmrkarate]

BLACK THOUGH BOI!!

[hushg2000]

Mos DEF at is finest!!! Eminem with the cock lyrics is wiggidy wack. He should read a few books and talk about other issues. That is one thing why the Hip-Hop community doesn't put him in the top 10. Lyrically his good, but there's more to MC game.

[NBH009]

@hushg2000 youre lookin at the wrong list cuz hes listed at around number 6 of greatest rappers of all time, up there with tupac, biggie, nas, jay z, etc.

[MiserableUK]

ahhh eminem haha, merked that

[Boonader93]

Eminem murder that beat.

The guy from the roots killed it to.

[dugreemer]

ems new style is wat hip hop needs

[jsncbt]

And the winner is.. Black Thought

[MattGrits]

I dont even see em as white anymore lol saved the best for last

[sexicantravioso1]

thumbs up if you know what what Mos Def meant by Stuyvesant

[dank9992]

@sexicantravioso1 why isnt bedford in front of that stuyvesant

[thegermancrip]

@sexicantravioso1 isnt bedford stuyvesant a neighboorhood in brooklyn? bed stuy?

[BlakePlaya]

@sexicantravioso1 Hmm let me me guess.. OMG I don't know... (Sarcasm) ....It's not hard to figure it out bud, Everybody should know what it meant.

[jatt92rs]

@sexicantravioso1 i dont know :D can u explain? lol...

[TheToraman888]

I gotta go with Black Thought. #MyOpinion

[adro9embue]

ladies n gentlemen.. the epitome of freestyle.

[dragunovful]

Mos ripped that tho

[jennaudrey28]

Mos Def wreaked it! Go Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard!

[AlmightyGameGuy]

@tilian9990 You have a gay name, Bobby. js

[dragunovful]

@StrictlyTactical Lol you missed everything. Look eminem is alright, but if you cant respect Mos, who trust me, em has mad respect for, thats just doesnt make sense.

[EGezzy1]

Who are the 2 white guys in the background? They are in every cypher

[NaNoFlowzx]

they are all amazin, mos was the best but i cant split black thought and eminem

[JkellyTv]

" My dick SO big if i add another inch to it, You'd swear that when i fucked you that you were actually into it " - Eminem ( Mind blowing )

[FreddyDaGreat1]

Eminem best rapper who ever lived!!

[MBouncing]

@FreddyDaGreat1 2nd after BIGGY lyrically that is. I loved him b4 but his new songs are wack like the one with rihanna. GO BACK TO THE OLD STUFF EM - LIKE SING FOR THE MOMENT

[TheKlownfish420]

@MBouncing Dude the song with rihanna is good as fuck he just makes music with more meaning now instead of being pissed off all the time his old shit gets...well...old after a while. He tried to go back to the old Em with relapse and well...you saw how that went. His older cds are his best but recovery is up there with them and no he's better than biggy

[MrsTruthTeller]

THIS ACTUALLY SOUNDS LIKE A REAL CYPHER!

[joytoia1]

THEY ALL KILLED IT ND E HOLDS HIZ OWN!! gotta luv it

[UchennaOfuluozor]

my dick is so big, dah if i add another inch to it, u wud swear wen i raped u, u was actually into it. DAMNN

[01bluphi]

Eminems part over and over @2:08

[xikree]

@01bluphi nope , need to watch all over again, all of them killed it

[dragunovful]

I hear a nas sample but i cant quite place it

[dragunovful]

All about my man mos. em dull in comparison

[aliendick602]

Black thought is Hip Hop.

[helmsley07]

why the fuck does this only have 43000 views

[bootyjuice88]

@helmsley07 because no one likes real rap anymore sad aint it

[WuTangNizza]

Am I the only one that can tell Mos Def and Black Thought killed this beat with ease, while Eminem had to really try, just so he could be on the same level. No disrespect intended, I'm just sayiiiiin.

[RanaFlecha]

@WuTangNizza Just saying bullshit! Eminem killed it hate it or love it, it´s a fact!

[RanaFlecha]

@RanaFlecha but gotta add that Mos and Black really really really killed it!

[WuTangNizza]

@RanaFlecha 1st of all note the last sentence in my comment. Like I said no disrespect intended, I'm a fan of Em's old stuff but lately it just seems he tries too hard and it ain't working for him. I prefered his more contraversal and funny image to his new more dark, serious image, he just ain't the same anymore and his style just seems like a huge cry for attention the way he's always shouting his bars rather than just spitting. But anyways I'm out, going to listen to some K.Lamar.

[midy32]

@WuTangNizza look let me get this str8!!! marshall is eminem now NOT slim shady slim shady was his funny violent alter ego eminem like u said is his dark realer side ever since he overdosed he woke up and relized his slim shady persona was gunna fuk him in the ass. now tht he is eminem he finnally is showing his true talent as a rapper so dnt go sAin shit tht u dnt got the facts to prove and i bet 5 out of 10 ppl who read this cudnt even give the definition of freestyle!

[WuTangNizza]

@midy32 I don't need any facts for what I just said, actually. I didn't say anything about who he was then and now or whatever - Slim Shady, Eminem, Marshall Mathers, whatever, it really doesn't matter. What I'm saying is, his old stuff was far more funny, clever and just entertaining and I bet most people would agree. The definition of freestyle is spitting totally off the dome bars on the spot, which let's be honest, not many rappers do 'nowadays, not even your beloved Eminem.

[IanHorgo]

@WuTangNizza yeah i preferred his funnier, darker image, the new em aint shit on the one who wrote MMLP or SSLP

[9JackR6]

MOS DEF KILLED IT

BLACK THOUGHT SUPRISED ME

EMINEM HAS USED THE SAME ONE BEFORE

[LoveisLove1234567]
