I don’t think anybody will ever reach cassidies level of lyricism. He was light years ahead of his time, and still is light years ahead 20 years later.
Not even close Check out Krino Spiral Vortex, Duality, Perpetual Ascension and barbed wire discipline. Checkout Poet Laureate infinity by Canibus Cassidy is only unique with his old Street style rap and he got a descent flow backed with some swag but his bars are basic compared to some elites of the game
Gotta love the armchair rap gurus who can’t spell things correctly. It’s not that hard. Lazy sloppy fat asses get out your Mom’s basement. Eminem is trash, Cassidy is a do boy who raps about God and selling drugs. But pound for pound, Cass is easily better. Eminem is only popular because he’s white, and his first single killed boy bands. He still sounds mad thirty years and a few hundred million bucks later. Cass would eat Eminem. Period.
@@martymcyourflysdown6872 yeah but eminem not a g raper )) cass is a dime. he spit the lyrics that always about g life =). every fckin rhyme are hitting hard.
Right Bru, I ain't listened to this for at least 3 years played it out the blue and remembered every fucking word. Everybody slept on Cass cuz he come out with that radio shit like Hotel but he had to get paid. But it made mainstream sleep on him
I don't give a fuck what these new Battle rap critics say about Cass his spot solidified as one of the illest!...they always criticize his radio hits but this nigga got timeless classic freestyles
@@olearyeugene u trying to say loaded lux is better than arsonal and goodz? The guy that forgot his line in the calicoe battle and repeated it 8 times in a row. Wow
Damn I miss this era me and my dudes used to get high, playing Need for speed underground listening to Cassidy Mixtapes, G-Unit hahaha. Banks and him where throwing freestyles out like crazy. “And my nickels the size of Swizz Nose!” BRUH!!! I used to put that freestyle of repeat!!!
Kristopher Levine remember that one track he did on funk flex spitting over banned from t.v.? That's another fire story book long freestyle classic. I was just showing my lil Brody this and how rappers who go on flex can't spit this long like this nigga cass lol
this came out when i was in 7th grade and i still gotta show these young ones what raps about.. keep in mind im 21 huge hip hop head. east coast shit old french,max b, cassidy thats all we listened to when i was growing up cant forget wiz and curren$y. idk how the kids my age listen to this new shit.. i mean i vibe to it but literally only when im fucked up. when i listen to this though come on...
What I LOVE about long freestyles is how you can HEAR the artist getting more & more confident & more ZONED. You can tell the conscience is being phased out & the sub conscience is taking over & words are just effortlessly being spoke into existence coherently, no thoughts involved. Take a garbage rapper, give them a subject using 1 word & make them spit... I swear the beginning is GOING to be trash, about 4 minutes in your going to notice their skill leveling itself up as their story starts writing itself & they naturally segue into other subjects to continue it.
This isn’t a real freestyle. None of these guys were going off the top, it’s more about how prepared you came with your bars and delivered them. This is one of the best hot97 sessions you’ll ever hear though.
I watched this entire freestyle and I was AMAZED at how Cassidy's IMPECCABLE delivery of his INCREDIBLE bars was a constant the ENTIRE session! Especially at the end when he said, "You a hater, that's sad boy.. Coz ya mom even like me.. I might be ya Dad boi! You a mess, stop. I know you upset ahk, but you better watch how you talkin' to ya step-pop! Watch, Imma be goin' in ya fridge, and walkin' round with my Boxers on in ya crib Kid!" Whhhhhaaaaattttttt?????!!!!!
Kid I know u flamin caz the same crib u raised in I b gettin brain in for now on u my son Coward I'm the reason y ya mom's wear the ring in her tongue Coward n I'm done Coward ........ Cassidy 💯
"All This Powder Im Buying , I Could Make A Brick Road , And My Nickels The Size Of Swiss Nose.!" 56 People Have Broken Mouses And Clicked The Wrong Button .!
You can hear the Canibus influence in this one from the way his rhymes are structured, to the creative punchlines, to the way he says "blid-ast and smid-ash" similar to how Canibus says " brid-dicks and shi-dick" on Beasts From The East.
Manhattan Blocks that’s how it was back in the day tho didn’t have cell phones and all this so I bet you they were saying their rhymes over and Over especially if they knew they were going to the radio
I spit toxic waste, So talk slick and, get ya face sliced like a chocolate cake I can't get enough of this and its been almost 10 years. Best even today I threw da drop on, Michael Js wit the top gone, the insides butter like microwave popcorn!
I wish cass could return to this form... dude was a monster! I never felt he was off the chain lyrically tho... like don’t get me wrong he’s cold and got punches!!! But I always felt like it was his flow, timing, and delivery that made it pop like no one else! Like there’s so many rappers more intricate than cass.... Lux, em, buddens, black thought, etc... but his style, especially in this era was second to none fr
