Charles Hamilton Freestyles over the 5 Fingers of Death | Sway's Universe 

He was actually freestyling though! This guy is ridiculous!

Finally someone off the top.

When he was rapping about Rihanna he said "I'm a good dude, but I've gone bad and I'm probably rude" "Good Girl Gone Bad" is a Rihanna album and "Rude Boy" is a Rihanna song. Hamilton is on another level.

This was an actual freestyle! lol

One of the greatest MCs of all time! This guy should've been much bigger!

I just realized when he messed up he said " damn the first time I messed up in years" fucking legend haha

Finally... Someone who spits off the dome and goes in!

He was a visionary… knew Sway had the answers back then 😂😂 3:28

Top 3 Sway Frees: 1) King Los 2) Lupe 3) Charles Hamilton

"You bite my bars and end up with cracked teeth" Ohhhhh sheeeesh 😂

5 fingers of death im cracking knuckles

Charles probably the best off the top freestyler right now. His shit is actually cohesive and you can understand it even thought he's doin it on the spot "They said you fell off" "...I just landed"

The way he was ready straight away with the reply to "who's the best in the game?" and went so hard with it. Crazy

This is the most underrated otd freestyle in the internet

Five fingers of death I'm crackin knuckles.. Genius

Charles Hamilton in publiC?! Today was a good ass day. Its cool to see the rhymes and flow is still on point, but God does he look depressed. Hope we get a new music video soon.

A moment of silence... That shit was amazin.

LMAO if people only knew Charles that ACTUALLY was the first time you messed up ever lmaoooo

Sway: "They said, you *fell off..*" Charles Hamilton: "I just *landed*" Haha! Fucking dopeness!

"who's the best in the game now" probably hov I don't know unless I put my name in the convo, and that's just off the top of the dome, can't nobody touch me when i'm jotting though.

Here he is rapping for 30 mins straight: vimeo.com/14253187

Charles is so effortless with it. He's gotta keep his shit together, and he can really take off.

dude messed up right when he was about to break down American history lmao first rapper I hear being accurate about democrats, most rappers don't know enough about politics to rap about it respect to him lol

finally!! it's been a long time. glad to see he's back up

Bruh I never heard of this guy before but he's amazing. Him and Los are definitely the best at coming off the top. Idk, Los be spazzin but its crazy how this dude can be a little introspective while freestyling.

when that started from the bottom beat came up i thought this nigga was gone turn into a alien hahahaha, remember that video of him saying something about the alien frequencies or some shit in the beat

Charles is back, but I guess he never left! Glad he came back to rap. His track on the Empire soundtrack is going to return to him that mainstream attention that he once had. Congrats Charles!

They put that Camp Lo beat on I had the "OOOOOOOOOOO" Bill Cosby face!

this guy dope straight fire from the top. I like the fact he actually talks about the topic where as other freestylers just rap to the word that is said. this boy got skills. still think king Los didn't better but he nice

So glad to see him back. Imagine if Charles Hamilton AND Jay Electronica both dropped albums in 2015?!! Crazy.

Im so glad he's backkkk , and he blessed us with this bomb ass freestyle man watching this I couldn't stop cheesin and bobbin my head shit was flawless

Dude did more than 5 fingers with random topics being thrown at him! CH AR spitting like an AR

so dope off the top, i mean there are guys that can spit ill freestyles, but its mostly word association and setup/punchline, with observational inspitrations, still can be hella impressive when its creative and witty, guys like King Los, Locksmith, etc demonstrate that real well, then you got guys that spit frees with a nice flow thats just a stream of conciousness, it sound nice but don't really mean anything. What makes Charles Hamilton so impressive is that he is coming with a narrative off the top, telling a story and expressing intent and feeling like a written, but not grasping for simplistic obvious rhymes, or losing the narrative to find a rhyme. you dont see that shit often, not even with the real high level guys known for being ill off the dome.

That republican line was dope

"5 fingers of death, I'm cracking knuckles."

I love how he just ride the beats and his thought process is amazing. So fast.

Always dug 'Brooklyn Girls!' That sample was LEGIT

"if you met rhiana what would you say" pass up, cuz she decided to gas up, that sucks OMGGGG FIRE

CHARLES HAMILTON IS BACK (for the umpeenth time)

Man CH poppin back all over the place!! Time for redemption and a breath of fresh air Musically!!! CH a musical genius!!!

First time listening to this guy rap ..i am more than Impressed with his lyrical ability. I'm sharing this with all my twitter followers and fb friends. Someone with this much talent can't be hidden from the public!!

sounds like mf doom

this kid got a lot better, a whole lot better, i love seeing people improve he definitely stayed the course and kept improving over the years, im happy for him, shit is kinda inspiring to see how far he came

charles hamilton is back

Gambino, Chance the rapper, C.H....Produced by Chaz Bundick(ToroYMoi)...Featuring Ty Dolla $ign....Tell me that wouldn't be dope.

South bu south west, "is where I'm bout to go south by southwest just another obstacle". That is like honestly some of the illest shit I've ever heard.

Damn major bars

This was the most underrated Sway freestyle of all time

this dude fire af been sleeping on him for too long

did anybody catch that Rihanna line? yo he's beast

Effortless, best off the top artist in the last decade.

My idol in hiphop,legend in my eyes

Im sold. Goddamn that boy is good! I will purchase. no pirating on this guy.

does anybody know the 2nd instrumental?

The way he freestyles is fuckin crazy! WTF MAN unbelievable

Honestly prefer Charles over Mack, not sure how to explain it, but for harry i feel like he has a bank of rhymes for each word, but this guy justs vomits shit out and it sticks, even if he goes over bar lines and it doesnt make sense lol

Charles Hamilton only messed up cuz he felt dat "started from the bottom" instrumental was a alien melody instrumental. He was probably gonna go extraterrestrial talk in a min. But it may have been for da best

I thought this dude was dead real talk

"5 fingers of death,im crackin knuckles" !!!

Damnn im not even done listening he is fuckin barkin! I gotta start listening to him

He fucking ripped that shit n he wasn't even trying!!!

yes yes yes yes yes!!! hes back finally!!!!! i cant wait to hear more!!

He could change hip hop too bad the powers that be won't let him be great.

Been a long time..welcome back

I cam e here because someone commented on King Los' video that Charles Hamilton was better. And I was like "fuck that, no way". But now I'm like "oh...ok". Still can't say if he's better, but dude commands respect on the mic.

The republicans democrats shit was about to be so dope

"I like this track" always catches me offguard.

Dat started from the bottom beat hit him hard af

So glad Charles is back!

Welcome back Charles Hamilton

He's so cold with it 🥶🥶

Incredible

My nigga dropped a bar on democrats not supporting Civil Rights at first. lol. Real talk. All politics is about controlling economics, no matter what side they stand on. Cash Money

2:38 super smooth bars on this track

4.13 is Gang Starr - All 4 tha ca$h Oh my goodness I love this track

sway bringing on a real mc

He goes off

I miss Charles so much man

I had yo pause this shit to say this dude is fucking beast and this is a 100% authentic freestyle! It’s a rarity these days.

If you understand real freestyling, like genuinely being off the top-- this is top tier.

Genius💯

That seemed like 2 hands of Death, was that really 5 beats?

If he aint "mess up" he would have been there for 50 min foreall

Pretty dope how he was adding lines from sway and answering questions while spitting

its very few ppl in hip hop that can rap off the head without or minor mistakes! this dude is one of them. shout out to Charles man.

The bottom line is I was the minus sign behind all the dollar signs my guys would get

Wooow I was thinking about this for a while and was trying to figure out wtf it meant "Be there or be square like times" I thought this was dumb then. Be there or be ² like X ... Meaning X²

Lol I like that he got mad when he fucked up

He could've been in a better spot in then j . Cole n Kendrick Lamar , for sure .

sega

That Rihanna line cracked me up! Glad to see my dude back at it again!

dj akademiks? lol

Charles Hamilton is good... where’s all his hate comin from??
