  • I'm reading these comments & there these guys arguing about if this is a freestyle. its not a freestyle!!!! look at the BET Hip Hop awards when they do the cypher with random artists, when ppl rap off the dome thats considered a freestyle.

  • @disworldiscrazy Yes, we are not arguing over that point. We are arguing that in rare case such as this, pre-written verses that do not follow a theme or belong on a song can be labelled as freestyles!

    "Originally, in Old school hip hop of the 1980s, the term ‘freestyle’ referred to a pre-written rap verse that was not on any particular subject matter, but rather was written for the purpose of demonstrating skill.The term is still occasionally used in this way."

  • @disworldiscrazy Cyphers are all written, there supposed to be.. theres a difference between a freestyle and a freeverse.. meaning free of a chorus or a topic... but people label free verses as freestyles because theres no hook or topic

  • theres no such thing as freestyles its mostly just unrealsed verses theyve writtin and the bet cypher are prepared verses look at behind the scenes they say it themselves

  • royce is gonna be like eminem when he hits 37. untouchable.

  • @disworldiscrazy the hole shady 2.0 cypher wasnt a freestyle. behind the scenes they all talked about tryna remember they lines or even rehearsing em before the recording...

  • royce > jayz

  • a freestyle is a rap that was never wrote down just memorized thats a freestyle or you can just spit whatever comes to mind but as long as you never write it down its still a freestyle off the brain... get it?
