[ItsJesusHey]

LOLOL dude I laughed my ass off at some parts of that 'I step up on the microphone I step up on the microphonebrone drone yo step up duh up here in L, LA, up on dah microphone'

And some parts was pretty badass

But I think he's better when he sits down, writes some kickass flowing rhymes and records it in a studio.

And I love the fuck out of Gift of Gab btw.

[baconmanya]

My friend and I are so high right now, this guy blew our minds into space.

[Thedarkheritage1]

Gift-of-Gab and the other Quannum guys took

part in doing the best hiphop book

where the masters explain their techniques, title..

...H :::.O:: ..W ..:..:..:T0 ..:; ....R: ..:A..:: P

faantastically

ill book, really insiteful read

[infiniteknowledge515]

Damn!



[jeffthecoder]

3:35 ive noticed that when I dream, I can control the reality there..its not as easy as "i want a blunt" and suddenly im holding a blunt, though, its more like its my subconscious that controls what happens in that experience..in "real" life, i see that my mind has a big part of shaping this reality too (its all about your overall mood) but taking actions is the other big part for creating your reality here..1st u gotta know what you want, then u need to learn how to get it, apply that knowledge

[UgliestGuyEver]

@MCSQUAREDHIPHOP no shit dude it's a freestyle. There's no way a freestyle is gonna be at his best. This is fuckin dope for a freestyle tho. Haven't seen too many people freestyle like this before..

[sicapitan]

101 veteran

[thatwasbuttery]

man these camera switches are fucking annoying

[plesja8]

1 dislike is of course feminem mtv die hard fan

[nickAsaysH1]

1 dislike = dumbass

[posajnejkwahb]

Got damn!

[SuperFaceless1]

3:15 This is why I love the Gift Of Gab

[keen4that123]

hes spitten for a 3 piece feed, and hes hungry as fuck

[30poundburrito]

this conversation is a freestyle. what a genius

[MCSQUAREDHIPHOP]

This was.... Not so great. I love Gift of Gab, but he was not at his top here.

[Blasphmr09]

@MCSQUAREDHIPHOP i agree but at least you know its not written. most people think a freestyle is rapping over someones else beat. this is a freestyle, of the head

[SuperMpare]

M+P+A+R+E!

[calykyng]

i was a poet first

[Phil0185]

I love Gift

[MrKinkysloth]

beast mode activate :1:45

[chea13]

He's like the John Lennon of hip hop

[cryspyfast]

he definetly is ON THE FUCKING MICROPHONE!

[skateorlie]

you could tell he wasn't feelin that beat

[Eskil223]

siiiick

[cry12344]

On the microphone on the microphone yo yo on the microphone.

[bradby2007]

The real

need i say more

[TheSuperduck23]

THAT is real rapping.



[zShwagg]

Ok my brain just asploded with 5 and a half minutes of gab

[Seitzy411]

I'm honestly surprised the Microphone didn't melt.

[acidbug]

this is not his best, still destroys pretty much everyone else who's been on here lol. His video with Tom Green is crazy, he kills it

[Hitsugaya7592]

Uncle Phil?

[kobracmdr]

Fuck all the haters. With so many rappers, mainstream and underground, getting on t.v. or going on the radio, and spitting throwaway verses or track 15 verse 2 off they upcoming album, and calling it a freestyle its good to see somebody get on the mic and zone the fuck out. Yeah he repeated some phrases, SO THE FUCK WHAT. You try freestyling at his pace for two and a half minutes, then comment.

[proggod876]

Type PRIZE before youtube and hit enter

[Leidenspfad]

He's one of the very few geniuses that hip hop culture has. Like "Myka9" like "Warcloud", he's a free artistic spirit, that's far and beyond with anything that's related to"public taste" and "record sales"!

[angelbeta]

1:06 - 1:28

[LadyPhynex]

he said "on the microphone" literally 16 fuckin times. still not a bad freestyle tho

[JustinKT22ahoe]

hahahhaha the same shirt thats how fresh they are CA rep!!!

[fatburgerx]

tell my why gift of gab and chali 2na, are like...wearing the same shirt. lol.

[letskillyoko]

@fatburgerx i know man i noticed that same thing

[DoseOneIsJesus]

@fatburgerx Great minds think alike

[ben8go13]

damn fresh

[blomx21x]

we should hunt down the one person that disliked this, then have gab freestyle while we kill him

[pb0o6]

lol blackalicious on g4. THATSWHATIMTALKINABOUT

[BronzDano]

since whenhas phillip banks been rappin?? nah Im just clowin I ve been down with blackalicious since blazin arrow

[Israeli3030]

E40 CAN ONLY WISH...

[tehSharp0n3]

this man has lyrics for days

[jamekididdleshmiddle]

a true freestyle. not some bull pre-written shit we see from most artist. this takes true skill

[vdl1996]

One of the best Ive seen on Freestyle 101

[DrThunderBird]

i knew he looked familiar, Blackalicious =p

[pick8lock]

he did a freestyle in australia triple J when i was like 12 or some shit.

he influenced me alot

[Ryno4205]

now thats a fucking freestyle omg this makes everyone else whos been on this show look wack as fuck respect this man for he is one dope motherfucker

[Lifeiis]

@Ryno4205 My exact thoughts!

[Leidenspfad]

@Ryno4205 It's all love man. This show features so many great mcs, and everyone has their own style. Check out Myka 9's freestyle for example, just as dope, but totally different.

[SunshineTsunami]

i bet hes smart as shit

[LateralParabola]

best free-styler in the game.

[5cen5cal9]

Straight up killed it!!!

[brendar94]

you can tell he actully freestylin it to. mad props. 2na's freestyle was rehearsed which is kinda lame

[durs117]

True coherent rap artist. Respect!!

[ThaiRain]

I went to high school with this cat (K-house, whut?!). He was rippin it just like this in '88.

[elcattiv0]

a real artist!

[madronnie1456]

True talent

[Zarat818]

go gift! you da man!

[furiouscake]

my favourite part was when he was up on the microphone

[jope7]

@furiouscake ahaha... me too. still have to admit he has talent. any mc left to run naked for long enough will have to fall back on low hanging fruit like that. just take it for what it is.

[furiouscake]

@jope7 but of course! why do you think "yo" is such a popular phrase to throw in a freestyle? because it rhymes with EVERYTHING. it buys you time to think! and it's impressive how FAST gift of gab thinks.

[DoesNotExist305]

HOLY SHIT!

[DrStyleOmatic]

WIMBLETTON!

[vdl1996]

Where can I get this podcast? This is madddd dope

[yaguih]

[UHF listening: trust me, is the key]

[Schlessy117]

[Jenntasnim]

Damn. Simply ill.

[sworder24]

[wazzup101fly]

[JessesMagic]

"Suge Knight mixed with J-Live" -@taumagalahi  Classic

[windparagon]

... the man with the Gift of Gab! He's got such an amazing style and philosophy

[mattokc]

I've been a fan of this guy for years...so I have to ask: will we get more Blackalicious? It's the best rap anywhere. Radio pop rap sucks.

[vrt96]

3:16- 3:30 tht was the best

[bloodyranqe]

I like busdriver better. This guy is beast too though.

[BlackMahmba]

DAMN...How have I never heard of this guy? This is insane...

[ghostface2006]

genius state of mind!

[kriksiic89]

[Persianffm]

[wassamatu]

looks like a regular everyday kinda guy til he hits the mic dam hahaha hats off to that brotha

[cardiologic]

[geemet]

[vdl1996]

Holy shit this is mindblowing, that was fucking tighttt

[TheJuniorAce]

I love Gift of Gab so much, Blackalicious up!!! he's so real and he's talented too!

[KemKem9]

Wow he as waked up out of this dream an see the life he deserve that name he mastered the lock on freestyling

[CANOFSPAM9]

Camera guy smokes crack.

[andrewnolfo]

dudes got so much mic presence

[gregster91094]

this is dope but FUNNY AS HELL BCUZ HIS FACE IS SHOWING UP ALL OVER THE SCREEN WHEN HES RAPPING ALL FAST N SHIT HAHAHA!

[raskaskoneisto]

Love the way Gift starts heating up, I can imagine the temperature in the booth rising.

[stormy1s]

Hes got a lot of skill but how old is he? Damn he looks like he could 50

[BaronDMc]

@stormy1s age is experience dogg. Chuck D is turnin fitty, soulja boy is turnin 20. Though some kats are just wack haha.

[DJRocks20]

says mic and microphone to much.... :S

[curryboy7]

this guy has a dope flow

[wiiboy555]

i love when he raises his hand @ 1:26 lol

overall this nigga is ill

[ThaFlyestMoor72]

Gift Of Gab his name is fitting Dude killed it

[flea6115]

This guy has nothing on Chali 2na, but he's not bad. Said "microphone" about 67 times though.

[ckyrocksass]

doesnt matter he really doesnt use any of em for a punch line or a rhyme

[banoue815]

@flea6115 LOL bro gift of gab is from another dimension, this isnt the dopest freestlye ever but the GIFT is real sick lyrical bastard

[Madabird]

@flea6115 chali 2na is dope one of my favorite rappers but dude his "freestyle" on Freestyle 101 is premeditated so you have to give it up to Gab hes a much better freestyler

[TheGreatDiscerner]

@flea6115 Sorry, but Gab would wipe the floor with Chali2na.  Not many can touch Gab.

[jonzky2000]

@flea6115 it's his filler maybe

[getfighted11]

1:59 is dope.

Incompetition!

[getfighted11]

epitomizing the art of the freestyle

[AYEMang]

dope. as. fuck.

[KillroyWuzHere]

i think im gonna cry. the BEST

[durs117]

this dude is sssssssick !

[tonycawley6969]

gift of gab kicks ass, no-one freestyles like him, this is all straight from the top. Shame Blackalicious never released a particularly good album.

[ChokeOnDeezNutz213]

i started sweatin just from watching this, gab murdered this shit

[ndfightingirish830]

don't care if you hate or love rap, you have to be impressed by this. he's tremendous.

[Boogalix]

What beat is this, shit is hot mang.

[mattmcdonald39]

your a fucking idiot cloud9 he's got his own flow that sounds like no one else

[Anthonynixon1]

@mattmcdonald39 he kinda sound like bust rymes bacn in da daay n alittle like method man

[oncloud9nine]

hes tryin to bite supernats flow

[cryptozoology4life]

he sounds nothing like supernat.

[reggaefest]

a true hip hop pioneer

[jollydrunk]

GODDAMN.

[barkerbob5]

lol its not written u RETARDS

THE MAN HAS THE GIFT. hes a straight genius with his writtens. look up some blackalicous lyrics if you dont believe

[CuhxRis]

Uncle Phil?

[pbfront]

if he wrote that he sucks pretty bad.. so all who says he wrote that.. is posibly retarted.. rofls.. deffinatly a freestyle

[TheTertullian]

@pbfront hehehe yeah!! its not written, and some shit is already in his hear. BUT THIS IS A FREESTYLE STRAIGHT FROM THE DOMEEEEE

[theovergrownkid]

He's a fucken BEAST!!!! Rhyme, lyrics, delivery, flow, Everything 10 out of 10. He is the "God of Rhyme" ....I love this dude; he's one of my top 5 emcees

[kniix]

freestyle my ass, he wrote that shit up and learnd it out and in.

[heidisworld2000]

Not so much it looks like her the chick from Digable But the voice I remeber that voice well

[SiXE3Z3RO]

gabs best

[wgapease]

!!! what was that gay comment though? LOL fucking brilliant

[taumagalahi]

Fav emcee of all time. Don't give a fuck what anyone says. Gab looks like Suge Knight mixed with J-Live haha.

[kayin4o8]

@taumagalahi LOL he does! love his voice

[niemah123]

@taumagalahi i was think he sort of looked like Uncle Phil from Fresh Prince

[glass007]

Top notch. Can't understand why n e 1 would compare  what gift of gab do to some battle rapper. GOG n Myka9 r artists like Coltrane always improvising...they ain't telling lies...

[god362]

he got caught up on that "microphone" stuff, but that last acapalla spit was tight

[taumagalahi]

nah. that's what you get when it's a real genuine freestyle. a lot of emcees these days claim freestyle but come with writtens. gift is the truth. emcee JUICE too.

[1licketysplit1]

i lol'd at that comment haha, he looks pretty huge in videos :D

[Suicimaru]

i like you're language

I say that also.

[iLLbyno21]

I saw gift of gab live, he is really huge, he had a huge fro and his head was the size of a beach ball

[KushyRollins]

hard to listen to

...when im on the microphone

[InsaneD602]

u gay foo

[qualityhitz]

grimey freestyle

[revelashaun68]

Peace ,Freedom of Havin' Fun!!!!

He was freestylin' not making a song!

[dingles4breakfast]

This is a freestyle not a battle freestyle.

TheSaurus isn't bad but he's not that good.

Eyedea would fucking slaughter Saurus.

[wutangslang09]

i highly doubt that

[jaytonbye]

eyedea freestyles better... but saurus and the other battlers are all about punchlines and probably have a lot more. Comedians make better battle rappers than rappers.

[Bagofsocks]

what beat is that?

[HipHopIsGood]

Buddhist Monks by Ill Bill

[flashmerian]

DAYUM

tight as bro

[carsonhughes1]

AMAZING!!!!

[dpshallow]

This might not be saying much cuz I haven't seen much freestyles but i love the Gift of Gab and think this is one of the best freestyles out there, check it out everyone! -Dylan
