I don’t understand the ghostwriter thing bro , there are so many other professions you can be successful in but instead you’d rather pretend you’re good at rapping ? . How this make sense
It only takes a few to ruin the public opinion. But you ain't lied. If you know you KNOW what part of a "freestyle" is off the top or filler rhymes.

You thought the people in the background just knew to throw the most perfect adlibs for 3 rounds straight?? You niggas be brainless
Respect!

I never cared for the whole written battle rap thing to begin with. I’m old school come off the top and see who has the better skillz
Bboy battles are like this too sometimes. At the Olympics why the "bboys" all practicing together? (when Snoop walks in).
Where is the element of surprise? That oh shit I gotta match this etc. Intensity. Integrity. Imagination.
It's all predictable.
PREACH.

Whats horrible is they don't rhyme on beats ... all that shakespeare repeating and stopping your bars is WACK.
Real Heads KNOW how its done.

Say it ain’t so. I did rap battles in high school and I never rehearsed with my opponents. I just memorised my verses on my own and I planned to annihilate the opponent. Never lost a single battle.
Replying to @Rome_Streetz
When I learned they will like write and memorize verses then string them together on the fly I really just tuned out of that shit. I want some brains on fire finding poetry in the moment not that improv comedy bullshit!
It's no different than politics.

Its true when i was on 106 and park they had you meet your opponent and talk to know each other a week before so by friday yall was prepared lol i knew some who rehearsed too
BOOM. And the few I've seen they miss quoting their guy on camera.🤣
Replying to @Rome_Streetz
Why do you think they entourages be knowing when you repeat what they say? lol

Real ones keep the vault sealed. 🛸
Very important realization. Its serious skills out there. But trends dilute REAL culture.

Once I found out "freestyles" werent freestyles but everyone else was cool with it. I kinda just faded away from the scene.
When I hear anything Mr. Lif I always donate 5 minutes to relisten.
