Have to admit: I was not expecting this to rival the elite Dead Prez frees but LL went ham and fuckin murdered this shit

[drinklager]

ll was originally a battle Emcee, like Eminem, and people didn't like him cos he was / is fucking quick and good. Respect to ll and his battles.

"I used to lose battles on purpose so these cats could dream more... You might see a nigga, I see a black Einstein."

[CAW118]

damn this was sick

[Blaze264]

Ppl that are defending skinny jeans.. they're sayin that SKINNY JEAN HIP HOP is horrible, and i agree. Im not hatin on the jeans, u wear wat u wear, but dnt try to make wat u wear... apart of somethin that ALOT of people love and respect( Hip Hop) You just can't do that. At the end of the day its all about the spitfire(MF DOOM said that line)

And the ppl that are apart of this lil skinny jean era, just disrespect the genre with these nursery rhymes of theirs.

[Hypestyle]

excellent, the proper album version has a great rhythm track, but they reverse-bleep the "MTV" reference for whatever reason on that version.. just out of curiosity who are these guys Azee, Rich Porter and Alpoe that rappers tend to talk about sometimes..

[rockstarnemesys321]

@Hypestyle harlem drug dealers from the 80's

[alex10o93]

It was sick .best dead presidents freestyle until the language changed LOL

[1djdamn]

THATs THE COOL J I like 2 listen 2! I always skip ova the lovey dovey joints & find the joints that let you know why he can make albums til his casket drop! lets see if soulja boy & the cheeze cats can even have 1 hot album! Not 1 catchy hook on a song, but a bangin front 2 back album. Oh Yeah! with NO FEATURES ! LL = REAL MC

[bigblackwoo]

Lose Battles on Purpose so these cats can dream on.... Hes hard

[francisMHwhite89]

[Kingstyles05]

[PunchlineJRosario]

YOUTUBE THE J.ROSARIO FREESTYLE of this, He ripped this the ol school New York way... HOTT HOTT,

[Mesmereyes]

I am tired of the beef talk. Canibus was ill. And LL was ill. And this track represented, the dude spit a true and proper story. That's what being an emcee is about.

[Derrick31462]

its in italian and spanish.

[DEEsoFYE]

this hot as hell, LL went in

[djCurie]

ll murdered it fo real

[TurncoatTony]

This shit is so hard.

[Baltimorehop]

LL is an MC god. Make no mistake about it but he is not the originator of hype rap. Yo gonna have to go back a little further with guys like Melle Mel and Grand Master Cas. I'm talking that type of rap that made you rewind the tape about 100 times just to understand what an MC just put down. Don't forget Kool G Rap either.

[willwetmoreable]

ll.

[lmarr07]

Yo LL killed it, I cant believe it. I forgot all about him.

[THEKIDFROMETHIOPIA]

LL is the foundation son.. Don't forget!!!

[KmaC2464]

"When Prince Porter told me you can push a new car Its different for a rap star, and AZ was giving 50s to the homeless and never bragged about it."

[bigflair001]

WoW! this joint is BEAST! right here i will love to see Mr Canibus top this joint right here..... I don't think so. Not even in his wildest dreams. This is why they first called him the PRINCE of HIP HOP, Uncle L, then the G.O.A.T. His Mcing Skills is Supernatural at Times.... I've been a LL fan since '85 and let me tell you..He is nothing to play with when it comes to freestyles.. Heads tend to forget.

[minhasc]

@bigflair001 pleeeeeeeeease!!!! Canibus freestyles for over 20 mins with ease, with DEEP metaphysical Rakim-era lyricism, and u think LL owns? Do ur history

[TehPinoyKid]

@minhasc LL Got threatened by Canibus. Isn't that tellin' ya something. If Big Pun was still alive the game would be totally different. Eminem is even better than this chump. He's decent, I won't lie. But .. LL is probably the most egotistical rapper in the world. Making himself just sound even shitter.

[minhasc]

@TehPinoyKid 'Bus cyphers with G Rap, Krs, Wu, Pun, Redman, AZ, Heltah Skeltah, Ras Kass, Chino, Rakim, Pharoah, Keith Murray....

LL cyphers with J Lo n Ja Rule.

Canibus: "That's why Tupac said u was a bitch, if he was here u wouldn't even have an acting career..."

LL: "Ain't a rapper dead or alive that's fuckin' with me..."

Pleeeeeease, there's a godamn queue forming on that one L...

[tateavery21]

@TehPinoyKid LL dog most versatile

[Beatdown2k8]

minhasc

I still await to see these incredible freestyles from canibus. for sure he had two ill LL disses, but what else has he done? fuck all thats what, his albums were shite and his freestyles are overated. Compared to nas,rakim and mos def, lyrically canibus is a chump.

he should stick to hacking google.

[gilliedakid]

Yo This ish right here is straight fire. Wow. LL is super nice on this.

Don't even wanna talk about my freestyle anymore lol. But still, y'all should check it out. My freestyle to Dead Presidents on My page. Holla with comments

[1985322]

got to give respect where respect is due!

AND RESPECT IS DUE. BIG UP LL

[HipHopMusicGuru]

i didn't know he can freestyle

[JCostilCapo1]

youtube "Costa aka Capo" if u fukz wit dat real hip hop. Peep the tracks Gov'z Greazy, Listen, N Freedom.

[FUMESTER]

ILLLLLLLLLLY

[blackfalconsungodzzz]

Classic!

New skinny jean HIP-HOP" is pussy, take note' LL is one of the reasons you should learn what a real MC is, stop talking about these new skinny jean faggs in the game...,,none of them cant Vocab like this,,........shut up and listen to the way this cat brings fire from his mental !

[Panikzekilla]

@blackfalconsungodzzz Lol i call it Fag Swagg

[celestialnubian]

@blackfalconsungodzzz

LOL! What the hell are you talking about. LL used to wear skinny jeans. Everyone did in the 80s.

[thaprofessionalz]

L is a Legend....Period.....Point Blank....Too many joints to mention....Damn!

[olskoolrich]

I would never bet against LL...if you know you history, this cat is a skilled battle rapper and MC!

[lyrisik85]

hel yea he is man he got mad skill anyone that does emcee should have mad love for big L

[tateavery21]

correct

[drinklager]

@olskoolrich one of the best in my opinion mate, one of the only guys to do Kool Moe Dee.

You old skool mate ? Me too, real hip hop.

[drinklager]

Respond to this video... one of the best in my opinion mate, one of the only guys to do Kool Moe Dee.

[MickyG4444]

he had this in his head before he got there... it's far too concise

[tateavery21]

so if he did

[philscafe]

Waddup. Maybe L wrote this prior, but this song still sound tight. Not too many people can flow like this and been here since the early to mid 80s. Dude rhyming in spanish too. I got to pay credit where credit is due. Longevity is incredible and this whole mixtape was hot. Classic L!

[ebeledi]

interesting flow word to LLCJ

[MasterPerez5114]

So is this ll's song or kayslay? whoever that is...

[MicrophoneRebel]

LL has always been a skilled MC. Lil Wayne was good when he first came out but my God, those drugs...lol Even now he has some of the best lines and worst(most pointless) lines in the same verse. I just don't get it.

[Sledgegramma12]

that is hard ... lyrics ... sheeze

[robrob3420]

he actually kilt i though this was a joke

[ogie]

Way better than any of wayne's freestyles...

[jungkoshika]

who ever said LL aint shit,,,couldn't be anymore wrong about him,,,this song explains exactly why people say the things that say about him..this is a classic freestyle and I remember when this dropped,,hot!!!

[elderelite]

For the real check John Doe' DEATH TO HIP HOP.

[Terminator44567]

ll is belongs on the Mt.Rushmore of Hip-Hop

[StutterinG123]

A true legend....

[abysmalvsmarcus]

LL killed it

[lEastTube]

I know for a fact that hes a legendarily rapper. But....There is alot of people who dont have a clue who he is. And its hard to believe but its the truth. And the people who have heard of him only no him from the 2000s. FACT!. Peace,

[bloktv]

u are a idiot if ur talkin about ll if u dont know who ll is ur not hiphop and u should really just kill urself i dont know anybody who listens to hip hop who doesnt know ll

[lEastTube]

When did i say i dont know who ll is? You fucking nub, if you read the comment it acually says nothing bout me not knowing who ll is. He was great in the 80s, But hes shit now like everyone else.

[tateavery21]

Na LL is still the man dog. He just a versatile cat and making these fools get food. He is ahead of the game and peeps do not see it. LL dont sell his soul to the masons and Illuminati dog. LL is the goat. He can rap anyway he wants. LL is good peeps also. It's time for war is the shidddd on exit 13 cd LL got out.

[awesumblossom]

the chorus's pays the bill :O

[DanielKeithMorrison]

nobody understand regardless of what his albums say recently the man made it known he's a damn legend.

[brickcitybomber]

Yo people don't know he nice cause they think he just rap to women, but L started as a battle rapper

[tateavery21]

Tell em dog and he neva stopped peeps just here the radio. Get the CD's and u will see he is a versatile rapper. Tell em brickcitybomber, tell em all.

[MRjeremy317]

LL cool j is hard as hell

[AD1017891]

REAL....LL=lyrical beast

[Reapa123]

Ay Dios mio...dat deserve love like da late great Christopher Rios

[stolennova]

[Cfloyd1992]

LL held it down in this song.

[TheCmackAttack]

[kellcamz]

LL COOL JAY IZ STILL HARD AS HELL...

[Escobar9300]

[tateavery21]

Well if you and others listen to his CD's and not the radio crap the hatin producers put out there u would of not been suprised LL is a versatile beast

[tateavery21]

LL is versatile remember yall.

[ExodusPessoa]

Used to lose battles on purpose so these cats can dream more!!! What a Line!!!!!!!!!!! He's G.O.A.T or in the Top 10.

[wudup720]

[TerrorAlertDaKillah]

[orionvii2710]

[Shadow1981]

That's a dope freestyle. I just wish I knew what he was saying when he went into another language. LOL!

Does anyone else know?

[th3villain]

Si palare poco Italiano

LL bravisimo, grazie, prego!

Más mejor siempre mi amigo

Pero, music is muy muy duro

Tú sabe, que tú quieres es no problema

Te quiero mucho, yo comprendo your dilemma

i speak a little italian! ll the greatest thank you. i pray for better always my friend But, music is very very hard You know, that you it is no problem. I want much , I understand your dilemma

something like that

[bloktv]

this motherfucker rapped in italian,spanish and french yo anyone that sleeep on this is justa hater

[ProtaJ]

That Shyt iz alwayz bangin'...Classic shyt from L.

[Rockstedy17]

Funny, in the beginning of this freestyle he kind of sounded like jay-Z for a second.

[jfreshh3]

WOW im amazed dis is da side of ll i never heard bro wow dis is damm im speeckless lol dis shit tight i got respect 4 him he needa show dis side of him more foreel dats y he aint gettin much credit

[nigga4life200]

I fuck wit how he flowed on this prolly than da original

[shagimater]

your a jackass

[ChrisStylezZ3]

Yeah. You can say LL is the best in a sense. He is fit in this rap game. There like no style he cant adapt to. Survival of the fittest

[tateavery21]

Versatiltiy. He been there and done it. Alot of peeps didn't hear all of his versatized stuff either

[BEFOREMYTIME85]

UIf he keep his shirt on and focus less on jay-z. Males would take him more serious and women Real women would feel him on a different level. Stripping is better left to strippers and Hip Hop is best left for serious Artist'

[Thebumguy]

I totally underestimated him. He was before my time, but I give him respect now. I never knew he was this fuckin dope with his flow.

[BurntOffering08]

Damn!!! I never realized he could rap this good. :D How come he hasn't been dishing out more music lately???

[MacsWagner]

what u talkin about he got 12 albums and the last one was last year or something

[BurntOffering08]

Really??? I know he's been the rap game for pretty long, but wow. Twelve albums, that's alot. :D He's amazing.

[leemajaz]

he" dumbded down for his audience to double his dollas." most people love the rap with no real substance. just look at the charts.

[Need89HELP]

actually he just released a new album called

Exit 13

it should be out by now,

but im not sure, i respect the dude, but im not a fan

[saywho112]

mad beat dope mic skills

[radiorah3000]

We aint gonna do that voting shit..who did this or who did that... these dudes are going for the title of all time great rap ICON...You got to go in to get that... How Jay going say he the GOAT when he so fuckin non confrontational??? Glass Jaw Jay my man on the mic but he already got TKO'd by Nasir... Jay =Roy Jones Jr. LL = Hulk Hogan...lol..he a fuckin ICON...and he calling Jay out... NOBODY RESPECT JAY MANHOOD IF HE DON'T GO IN FOR REAL...

[curtis75black]

Crazy Track Crazy Flow. LL is The Man regardless

[MilkyJ1]

LL has always had good hard music, but they always want to push off his love music. LL is to much for the rappers and too book smart. Common sense and bein book smart, make a dangerous rapper.

[Pernbaby]

think this the jawn he started speaking french..can't remember..anyway i know it went hard..been an LL fan since day 1! Keep em coming L!

[LAVATHEGREATONE]

COOL J WE WANT MORE HOT HOT HOT

[stillthekid333]

Thanks for posting. This is blazing hot. Its much better than the version on Kay Slays shit. Tighter beat without the edit on the MTV line. I didn't even know what he was saying MTV at that part

[tateavery21]

Right but they been doin that in most of LL's career. They want him too look like a role model but u know every now and then he snapps. He gonna have a great record with EXIT 13. Hopefully the industries do not do what they usually do to him. They try to hide his stuff and he still sells.

[tateavery21]

I got this. This is the stuff here. The real name of this track is called The TRUTH. It's about how peeps hate on him. He also speaks spanish at the end of the track!! Freestyle.

[notreallyausername]

Yeah, I mentioned that in the description...when it became The Truth, it kinda sucked cause the beat used was kinda wack (and they censored his lyrics about MTV)...it sounds hotter over DP.

And it's Italian not Spanish.

[dlee4she]

idk i kinda like the newer beat better that dp. i also think jayz's dp 3 beat is better.

good shyt though....thx for the response.

[deanmoriarty23]

Actually he spits in both Italian and Spanish.
