no he's not. he don't rhyme on the snare , it is unorthodox and exists for a very very long time in rap now, frow killa army to recent technical rapper...
" I know why they envy me, cause I went from battle rap, to MTV, From MTV To Hot 9 & BET .. I light ya block up wit a finger I could Be ET (BET) " Smh why ain't nobody catch that tho .. I damn near threw my phone just now.
people talking bout he off beat.... no your hip hop IQ ain't high enough to hear how he inserting the bars in the gaps and lining them up. Listen to the bass drum... his syllables line up at the end of the phrases. You just listening, you not hearing. Just stick to mumble rap
"I know why they envy me. Cause I went from battle rap, to MTV! From MTV To Hot 9 & BET. I light ya block up wit a finger I could be E.T! You think you better than clips? You on PCP! The clip still trying to dropout for its G.E.D! HeadShot! I'll leave you roofless (Ruthless)like Eazy-E!" -Charlie Clips OH MY GAWD.. This nigga really is Shang Tsung! My soul is gone! smh.. Clips a Problem.
idk why they did a beat, clips is like the worst dude ever to have a beat behind unless its like a really open flow beat this biggie smalls beat has some timing involved in it
+Vegeta62997 no way hes dope on a beat. check him out on sway. he obviously prepared a verse so he can kill it on flex but beat didnt go with his pattern. even i was waiting for a beat change but they left him hanging
Damon M Exactly. Not bells, no whistles, no half words, no humming, no hiding behind a simple hook, AND NO MUMBLING! People with negative comments need to start posting their age range. (I bet they about 14-22, give or take and can't even reference that iconic beat). I haven't even read the negative comments myself. I just see Real heads getting tight 😤 in the comments. Makes me want to read the idiotic comments.
Lol. There are two types of off beat. Straight up Off the beat(folks who cant ride a beat) and on beat (what they call off timing. This is for masters)
Joe Budden for the win. He's had the best one by far. A lot of these "freestyles" haven't been that good. Joey Bad did good though as did his Pro Era counterpart Nyck Caution. But other than those three it hasn't been a good look for Flex at all.
Lol the beat can't follow anyone, it doesn't have a mind of its own. Clips was the best battler for awhile and now he fell off. He needs to focus on battling and nothing else, he's never going to get a deal
For everyone saying he's rhyming off beat, it's probably a delay between what he hears in the headphones vs the instrumental that's playing a background to the video. But if that's not the case, here's a list of rhymers that don't rhyme on beat: Common, Talib, MF Doom, Redman, Ghostface, Rza, and a whole host of others that are legends. It's called swing. Learn how sound works and time signatures.
"Spinning off 1 leg I'm like Dirk"🔥🔥 s/O to Charlie for coming up with a basketball bar without mentioning lebron or mj! And out of all ppl he mention Dirk who literally gets no respect in the NBA and underappreciated Dirk is the fukin🐐💯 dis this is why Clips is the🐐 he understands Dirks greatness
@@GunssnRosezz so just because he can score he a goat?that man averaged .7 blocks per game at 7ft and never shut anyone down.if it wasn't for dirk fadeaway he would have been ASS and out the league in a few seasons.euro style NBA play saved that man💯😭
He's not 'off beat' at all. It's a similar flow / style to Biggie and a few others - loose and swaggy on the beat. Personally I think it's better, more techically difficult and has greater effect on ears familiar with hip-hop rap. Fax
They dont understand the ability to switch flows on one beat..And make it sound right. They need to also understand its B.I.G's beat and he has his on cadenced flow. and its sometimes hard to flow on his beats so Clips did this good.
Exactly!! I'm reading the comments like wtf?? Offbeat?? Hell nah he wasn't off beat! If you think he was then you gotta open your ears a little bit more fr fr!
Slamma Its sad these are adults in those comments, Im only 15 :) they prob need to stop listening to trap rap for a lil and listen to some 90s thats all, they need research.
This is hip hop at it's finest and I wish all rappers sounded this good when they freestyle like this and Charlie Clips is very talented. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
