BLACK THOUGHT FREESTYLES ON FLEX |  

Fact

Factss

Factss

More like 420th time just this week.

Got me I think it’s the 20th

Literally adjusted my list after hearing this lol

I couldn't be arsed arguing over the order and just put him in at number zero.

Yes this is telling you rethink about your every action of writing

lmao yup, I know who my new favorite freestyle rapper is

Facts!

As I passed the 6 minute mark, I realized that this is one of the greatest freestyles ever happening right then and there. Even Funk Flex sat quiet and mesmerized cuz he knew 😂

​it only took me 4mins to realize haha @dub537h5

Because it is

Never leaving.

Word!!!

2044

WORD

Have too unless it's a diss track smh

FACTS

True story bro!

More than an entire discography*

😂😂😂😂

This freestyle is a legendary moment in Hip Hop that never will be forgotten. Black Thought left Earth on that beat!

Ric Smith i like that 🔥🔥🔥🔥

lol

W

Best comment on the internet 😂

Ric Smith that’s hilarious

Indeed🫡.🔥🔥🔥

My mother was a working class very loving woman, who struggled every dinner, could’ve been our last summer I come home, chasing good for nothing half cousins, and then walk into the crib to the smell of crack cookin! She was introduced to the substance abuse, on some of the strongest drugs that the government produced, look, I even got excused by the principal, my story is out of a dub dub interview

@@joeyperry3931 Art thou verrückt in the Gehirn mein Bruder?

Accurate AF

This should be top comment fo’real 😂😂😂

"MC"s make it to the top and get complacent. Black Thought been there for years and never stopped perfecting his craft.

Big facts

Erin Smith lol please,That was no exaggeration,this freestyle is easily one of the greatest ever in history

Erin Smith “Minds” well, huh. 🤣😂🤣

It's the most impressive freestyle I've ever heard. So fucking good!

Adam Johnson . I agree. 100%.

Wordsmith

royce Da 5'9 raps for 11 mins straight on funk flex also and he was just as nice you should check it out

Cody McDowell will do

Royce definitely snapped too, but it wasn't 11 minutes straight. It was a lot of breaks. He still spazzed though

Wdym?

That's what BT does, he's a master! Listen to his verse on 'The Imperial' then listen to Statik Selektah talk about how he recorded it. Toying with them like Jordan out there!

That’s what happens when you tell an actual lyricist to freestyle. Same thing would happen if Biggie, Nas, Kendrick, or others did it.

Kevin Ochieng 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I see what you did there!🧐

Dog...you crazy for that line

Kevin Ochieng thats dope. Lol good one

Word!!!!💯😂💀

True

How would we get that done ?

FACTS

This dude can go! I never heard a free style laid down like that before..

Jesus Christ 😮

Do you think he came up with this on the spot? He isnt 4 bars ahead in his mind, thats not even how freestyling works, but even then this was pre written obviously. It’s simply not possible to simultaneously have such a condensed rhyme scheme alongside such deep concepts while freestyling off top

I want to learn to casually talk like that. He does it with such finesse that makes it look like it's his everyday thing.

Wow facts, well said

good ear

@@tomayousif108 my advice, do what X did as a young kid, he may be a more goofy "mumble rap" freestyler, but he's definitely worthy of being a *freestyler* , he studied artists like these (mainly Biggie) , and he freestyled to beats that they used to freestyle to, do that and freestyling will become more and more natural for u, its fun man.

I didn't even catch that... good one 👍

Indeed

Facts

Gon a have to violently agree with you there, boss.

LITERALLY

@S D That's a fact 😂😂

That part right there💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿

Same. This demonstration is a piece of human history.

Lol

Lmaoooo this literally got me loling

Lol.

Now I see it all the time and think that lol

lol

In under 11minutes

That's what I said..... this one session shits on some so called lyricists and "deep thinkers" entire project! I actually typed this comment at 4:44 am lol

@Chris Paul I know right. I was introduced to him through this like a year ago and heard some features and his two albums last year and all were amazing. Does he rap on all the roots songs? Because if so then i gotta listen to some roots

@Chris Paul start b4 then...from....do you want more????? Like '93

@@mkmmkm9103 start b4 that with organix. Been down with roots crew since 94. The illest irregardless.

3012 up in here... Still in awe.

Just now again💯

Daylyt 1 Black thought or king los 2

@@tejasvisharma4131 king Los 🔥🔥2

While you’re here, mind giving me the next 10 Super Bowl winners?

And he also started rappin less then 10sec once the best came on it’s was like 3 seconds Bananas

Where that dude that be writing out the lyrics in the comments at? I think that dude finally bowed out on this one.

Best freestyle I ever heard but wtf is malganism??

He said "amalgamism". It means to put things together or combine something.

Ummm this is all written and remembered. This is freestyle.

Мирослав Стефанов Flex: How many bars you got? Black thought: yes

Luqman Shabazz i was hoping someone said this😂

YES

Why did I read that in the voice of Thanos? 😂

😂😂😂😂

I think even he would agree

100% Eminem has amazing skill, but Black Thought has the wisdom, the insight, and the passion that just hits different.

Pure art, this. As we know, GOAT talk is just for conversation. Nobody wears or should wear a crown (teacher > king, per KRS). It's about adding to the art. Black Thought is at the top of the mountain in this game, no matter who else with him up there. Ra, Big, Em, Doom, Kanye, Jay, many others have put down gems. They're hailed forever, no matter who people speak on being best. There's no best, just pure hip hop, mastery of the craft. When you're hearing a Master at work, it doesn't matter what title they have, you know you're in the presence of greatness. Like everyone else, I come back to this for a charge of hop hop essence, highest level

First timer

Haha. Welcome back bruh 🤣

back every few weeks... Also Im also in Brighton haha

STG I hate to but it's like a hip hop transfusion

lmao if I have over 4 beers I always come back this 😂

I can't imagine even switching stations after hearing that!

I can't imagine switching stations

I KNOW THATsRIGHT!!!!!

why changing stations in the first place when you hear this lolll

I get your point though.

It doesn't get more elite than the level of breathe control and precision exhibited by the man. It was pure artistry. Hip-Hop skill at its supreme finest.

Legendary!

He said it aint strenuous to come a countious breath!

James Hagley 100% agree. His cadence was sick. Non stop for over 10 minutes

No... This is how HE raps! This is how other people act like doesn't exist so they don't have 2 try 2 live up 2 it🤣🤣

​@@shaunreed9727stop crying

The breath control is insane

Period!!

I remember when every rapper rapped like this.

Wow u are so right bro

When Cap grabbed Mjolnir

Yup

I’m glad to be the 500th like on this comment

Yep 🤣😂

All great freestyles are memorized but whatever.

@@epicon6 Freestyle is flexing a rappers ability to flow it much closer to a song for the station. No one flows off the dome anymore, unless in private. Still does not take away from the fact this guy is talking spirituality, politics, and drugs. In a one take radio recording.

For real brv

Titan Mellor harry mack bro harry mack. Greatest freestyler of all time. No cal

@@blizzaad Harry Mack is not that impressive.

Today💯

Entire catalogues

you mean their entire lives.

Entire discographies man

For real ...🔥 🔥 microphone done

You mean fit more content in 1 minute

More like his Nobel prize

Lololo

Check out his Freestyle at Harvard

Rap on a doctrine level.

He wrote his thesis years ago, this was just an acceptance speech.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I was thinking the same!

jay hank ME TOO!!!😂😂😂

RIGHT😂😂😂😂😭😭😭

Ahhhhhh hahahahahahahaha

Stephen ssr&rtv2020 hell yeah lol

FIRE FIRE FIRE

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Okay

True but it’s not much competition when black thought is spitting

Square biz

Circular breathing, I think Quest said it’s a similar technique that trumpet players use

Facts. That alone makes this amazing. The lyricism just takes it to another level

"The mic I spray resemblin' the sickle of death It ain't strenuous to come from a continuous breath"

@@BakersDozenOfficial nah, you can hear him breathing every few words. I think K.A.A.N circular breathes when he raps, his flow is almost nonstop, the listeners RARELY him him breathe, and it doesn’t seem like he punches in because the flow is so fluid

This s__t is impossible. He must have an extra lung.

Tsunami JMG 🤣🤣😂😂 facts tho

And topped it off with a couple bars off the top, just because.

spitting perfection ever since

The Roots - What they do

Like Eminem said invite'em in(vitamin) like one a day....🔥🔥🔥

Lol well I think I have a problem it's been just about every day for about 4 months lmaoo ..u literally catch something different everytime u listen

I've showed so many people this freestyle, I swear they're speechless when they hear this. Thought it redicoulois with hi bars.💯💪💪

yesssir its needed

You listen to vitamins?

Yessir!

Joe Traxx weekly

i play this joint at least once a day when i need that detox 😂

Every day homie

Joe Traxx YUP

Bryan Crosbie that one I felt l in my bones...

That bar was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Bryan Crosbie one of the deepest bars in this freestyle.

#Bars

My favorite line, besides the Henrietta Lacks bars.

A bruh his level of thought Is way beyond!!! I been rocking wit my dog for a long time. Lyrical genius!!!

I KNOW RIGHT?!?!?!

Frat house not trap house. This is for people that read.

This whole Freestyle is more worth than some career's

This is exactly the part that stood out to me as well. This particular bar added fuel to my soul.

facts!!!

lost count of how many times I've replayed now

Me too!

I gotta pace myself cause I can't get anything done when I listen I just pause and head nod then 10 mins go bye

lol me too

Real Heat!!!

That mic had to have melted

Excellent analogy!!!

Hahaha classic!

Yes. Yes.

Notice how at the 5:53 mark Flex is actually physically disgusted with how wretched Thought is flowing. That's some Kung Fu right there.

This is an inferno .

He didn't kill the game ya see G because I'm still out here.

your line clever and on the same level

the way he pronounces that bar is so insane, you can tell that hes' spitting his life.

colmdiniho u did that bro.....

My ears stood up on that verse too. Nice way posting that gem to highlight that genius!

7:20

Cold blooded.....

😂😂😂💀 I’m surprised that 🎤 is fully functional to be honest #he’sABEAST

This man spoke an entire thesis

You know he practised to become this good, right? If you want to be good at anything, you practise. Simple. You work hard.

wunas96 I know haha ...my comment wasn't meant to be taken too seriously , but major props to him for practicing to perfect his craft ...dude is beyond talented

Great art inspires people in various ways. There is video here on youtube with the gza and neil degrasse tyson the astrophysicist and they talk about how physicists now were inspired by Wu Tang lyrics while studying in school.

Enrique Suazo Definitely have to check that out

That's how everybody who started living they emcee fantasies started by emulating some of the best to find themselves an develope they own style... except for ODB no father to his style Lol!

Will Patterson FACTS ...NO LIKE HE REALLY SHOULD OF

Will Patterson facts yuongbol lol

Lmfao hard facts

Its time to frame that mic

Fuckin insane bruh

Just randomly came past this comment while he was spitting it. Cosmic

Word

The nigga said O.G.s an Young Lions equally proud to listen His 'Secrets' amalgomism's a algorithm The most intelligent bar left on any hypnotic streaming search platform in 2019. Wtf

@@rhyno8644 its many that didn't catch that and those that caught it didnt reallly catch it.

UNESCO ......DYIN LAUGHIN YO

yes indeed

It seems almost impossible... His Flow just shredds and still he‘s breathing. He has to have like 6 lungs

Taylor Chausky It’s rare that someone notices the breath control. Very well said. 🙌

@Stephen atr&ruk 2019 go troll somewhere else

@Stephen atr&ruk 2019 well the comment u deleted sure seemed like a trolling comment. I dont even remember what you originally commented so its whatever man water under the bridge

It aint strenuous to come from a continuous breath!!!

and a doctorate

knowledge.....

😂😂🔥🔥

he literally says it is "Rap on a doctorate level" :P

georgy fontaine say NO more 👊🏾

"You mean 5 PHD's in Rap" 😂

From Harvard.

bruh wat the roots arent black thought. Black thought is in the roots as an MC

yah the roots band members are the ones who play at jimmy fallon not black thought tho, jimmy fallon has brought him on his show and interviewed him and let him play a song for all those housands of thousands tho! got to respect jimmy fallon for showing real hip hop

Black Thought is one of the founding members of the Roots. He's been there since the beginning, and you've just made the OP's point.

black thought doesnt perform every night on jimmy fallon. the roots do

Chris Blue woooooooo

Thomas Sankara facts people sleeping on that line

Thomas Sankara eh that ones rly nice too but personally I like thoughts better both are great tho

Nahh this is the embodiment of African griots

@Thomas Sankara yea loaded lux was nasty but black thought for sure has the best freestyle. Loaded lux might have had more medaphors and wordplay but he's a battle rapper what you expect I would say daylyt was better. Black thought rapped constisntsley using medaphors similes wordplay and basically taught us a college lesson for 10 straight minutes, that takes a retarded amount of breath control flow and overall confidents 1. Black thought 2. Daylyt 3. Luded Lux

Bruuuuuh

222 likes been seeing that number everywhere

@@SaynTrades google meaning

BrothaDarkness Jimmy yeah G ik what it mean and all that but seeing it one more time did it for me! Gotta decode this message

Facts! Sorry daylyt black thought took the last 3 stones 😢

It's not sinner. It's center. The name of one of the roots albums was THINGS FALL APART.
