I Myself Rap. I have a Music Group I'm working on but Studio Time is hard I don't have a Song out yet but we are getting close to putting one out. I Want You Guys to hear it when I finish it. It's a Pre-Written Freestyle Track. Right Now All I Have is a Off the Dome Freestyle Video I was doing with a Friend of Mines at his house months ago if you would want to see that.

My Opinion on the rap in his Signature is that it was good. I love that he chose to use the All Falls Down from Kanye West and he did it Justice seeing as he for one stayed on beat, Lyrics had meaning, matched the Song Title and he actually has a good voice for rapping. I also wanted to complement how his Lyrics Sound story like as if he was reading a book. Nice Job. Keep it up.
lol don't tell me, tell him.


But yeah I'll definitely listen to your track when you send it out.

Bro it isn't a freestyle if its written. That's why it's called "written". Freestyle is off the top
There are two freestyles Off the Dome and Pre-Written. Kendrick Lamar did a Freestyle track. "Backstreet Freestyle" which was written. I am making one my self. I have a Pre-written Freestyle track I am trying to get recorded, but I have an Off the Dome Freestyle video with me just having fun with at a friend's house if you want to see that. I can do both and find it important to be able to do both as a Mc.

Edit: Do not believe all Youtube Videos that say "Freestyle" and assume they are off the Dome. The majority of those are Pre-Written while some are actually off the dome.

Cus it's 2 am and I'm too tired to think of everyone but nah, Celph is the best punchline rapper since L
Techniques got great stuff then he's got bad stuff
Doom's got lyrics but never liked his flow that much
Blackstar's the ish though.
Don't forget KRS-One

I think Kendrick gets a lot of hype due to his competition(current rappers) he's not as lyrical or deep as people make him out to be at least not on the majority of his tracks.

I didn't mention Aes or El-P either because a lot of people don't care for them but you can't ignore their place

no disrespect But a written freestyle is not a free style.... its a Written.... those are for rappers who can't really free style and cypher off the top.

You need to listen to Blu. But it's not all about punchlines. Leave that for beef and battles.

Hip Hop is music made from the soul for the genre.



You gotta admit Cole is good.

For my non punchline focused raps I prefer Slug and Grieves and Eyedea and Ali and mostly all Rhymesayers. I like Cecil Otter, Mac Lethal(albums not youtube vids) and Watsky too for some newer guys.

Is Below the heavens a mixtape 'cus the first track I played off it was a remix

3 stacks is raw. Legend. T.I music generic, but it's good.

Eminem a legend too.

Jay ain't been relevant for like 13 years.
They have so much money they don't really care lately.. 0_0
T.I. just lowers his content & ability for his image & money <.< he doesn't put his all into music anymore..


Jay-Z can still be pretty incredible if he actually tries <_< but they aren't motivated enough.. especially Jay Z
he could still go back to this
