COAST CONTRA - GIVE UP THE GOODS FREESTYLE (REACTION!) 

Gotta do the Cosmic Kev Coast Contra freestyle. They went BONKERS!

Also, Windows is the operating system you run Excel on, and if your 'Windows" is too "small", or non existent on your hard drive ("eyes closed") then you can't "excel", or run Excel. As a computer nerd, I loved that line. lol

Man people sleep on Rio. That light as a feather line was deeeeeeep that’s a history lesson. His struggle bars and doubles intertwined are so hard to detect.

The Halal, Bul, Beef, Lamb, Skin, Slaughtered by (Pigs), Cunning-Ham line is 🤯🖊

There is a complicated history to the Twins relationship to Ras Kass...they touch on it in some of their music about absence, struggle, and rehabilitation of the relationship in their adulthood...Heard an interview from their Mother (highly respected artist/singer/writer) Teedra Moses where she adding context on how Ras Kass never wanted children due to his own traumas and how she did a lot on her own still loving him and kinda accepting the situation, but she had other requirements of him in lieu of him being involved... Hard to keep giving him that much credit, but it does make you thing about how much either having a predisposition toward word play is inherited or how much the twins studied Dad in his absence in effort to get to know him which may have driven them to 'out do' or do just do to the legacy...like most we all have interesting stories...this group has an awesome one as a collective

You guys are the only reactors that actually explain lyrics. Thanks for that. Makes it more enjoyable for me because its not my first language.

Damn these 4 have given me hope for the future of hip hop.

Hearing these guys makes me wish Clear Soul Forces had more shine. More of these guys is needed.

It hits different too when you take the title into consideration. They all describe having to “give up the goods” and realize there’s a bigger meaning to life. A spiritual revelation for each of them!

Authenticity is the word that comes to mind for them

Damnit, you dropped this, and i thought it was the Cosmic Kev joint. The Cosmic joint went bananas. Eric Jamal first verse is the verse of the year.

Been WAIIIIITING! HELL yea! Can't wait for this one! *Edit: **15:52** Whenever I watch the breakdown of this freestyle. Nobody ever catches the Halal (allow), Bul(l), Beef, Lamb, slaughter scheme. Ryan picked up on it, but I wish he would of broken that down. That is soooooo top tier, to me.*

The twins rass kass's sons so fire.. as a collective they are some of the top lyricists out right now.. The album was amazing! APT 505 one of my favorites dropped this year.. Been a fan since Logicthon, rattpack, Dope reaction as always yo!

I think the last dude just might be a genius. Creative as hell

COAST CONTRA FIRE AS ALWAYS, LOST AND VEGAS KEEP IT COMING

This was excellent - my favorite type of rap. There is a certain vulnerability in the lyrics, the realization that you have to work to become who you want to be. I still like some big boy talk, but, to me, this is all about the human experience and how we all struggle to become better. I Loved it. Thanks for another stellar reaction and another amazing breakdown.

This final line was dope with the glucose and silly-act…. Fire.

Finally!! 🔥🔥 gotta check out The Enemy, The Realest, Speechless, and Dj Cosmic Kev coast is what the culture needs!

Thank you!!! So happy yall did this. Appreciate yall

Saw these dudes in Brooklyn. So lucky I got to catch them at a small venue because these dudes are about to blow. Nothin but dope shit!!! Thanks for the reaction

Love the way you guys attacked the reaction. From breaking down the bars to going back to lyrics while the video of contra that we see stays paused. Smooth edits and elaboration on the video.

Whew! Analysis & Performance & Writing is ON POINT!! I Appreciate you guys!!

Coast contra so damn inspiring to me they just hit different you can tell they really do care about their craft

If you want a song LEGACY from Apartment 505 The Cosmic Kev freestyle is crazy tho

Him rapping as his higher self was a crazy visual bar

I first found you guys listening to Pneuma… Here I am listening to and loving Coast Contra because of you guys… You are both awesome, keep being you and expanding our horizons.

Its truly great to see rappers with substance, cadence, spirituality that can be good role models for the youth!

So Glad yall hit this!!! Better late than never!! Got to touch their cosmic kev freestyle guys best freestyle in YEARS!!

Coast Contra went wild they deserve all the credit in the world

Coast Contra NEVER disappoints! They just keep getting better and better...

I been waiting to hear somebody fully comprehend the Randall Cunningham line great job the cosmic kev freestyle goes even harder

All these reactions and breakdowns help us truly realize the genius that comes from those once in a lifetime talented humans. People will still be talking about these guys 50-100 years from now in the archives of hip hop. They're that important.

Been jamming to them for days straight. Got to react to more

Halal...bull, beef, lamb...CunningHAM...that at 12/21 off the Cunningham Jersey...whole run was incredible

Here for this, Coast Contra!!!!!!

90’s hip hop will never be topped. The greats then shined because of their INTELLIGENCE. Deep, poetic, and real. This shit these days…no brains.

They could make a living on merch alone at this point. That's the beauty of independence. 🙏☝️

These guys are craaazyyy good! I love how they are bringing proper hiphop back.

that's probably the best freestyle i've heard from any modern day rapper/group after the 2000s

These are songs, written freestyles is no different. Coast contra was needed and I'm so glad they've gotten the attention they've deserved to get

You two are awesome. Glad to see the positivity. Great channel

Idk how I never realized that J Cole used this beat on St Tropez, just never clicked till now

Crazy there closeness with there higher being . All talked about there shortcomings . Give up what we call goods for the higher purpose

The "#2 next to what I doo doo, penning flows like voodoo" while, yeah being a little juvenile, also points out that he does his crosswords in pen, while his opponent had to write in pencil.

I was waiting for yall to react to this masterpiece. The beat is god tier.

Oh man yall are back, thought yall fell off the Coast... LET'S GO! For songs, off of APT 505: Legacy, My Lady, Pimp Benjamin, 505, Queen & Slim and Explicit. Those will help oh and the latest Cosmic Kev freestyle..

When he said they glucose and ended it with celiacs was the coldest bar

These dudes are SOLID... want to hear more like em !

After a millenia of suggesting and waiting, it's finally here🙌🏾....but now there's another out that NEEDS a reaction. what's the odds of getting their freestyle from the Come Up Show, on here? 🤞🏾

FINALLY another Coast Contra reaction 🙌🏾. Hopefully you'll react to all or most of their freestyles. Please react to their freestyle on DJ Cosmic Kev's Come Up Show next.

How I've I only just found your channel ! Been so sick of listening to 18 year old knuckledraggers reacting to shit they don't even recognize. Love your energy, love the knowledge, bar catching and perspectives. Top content boyyyyys. Just watching you two bop along and nod to the beat makes me smile haha

Been waiting for you all review of give up the goods . Now it got serious on The come up show , jeeeeeesus!!!!

Bro these breakdowns really are crazy interesting. Really shows so much complexity

There are alot of people that "review" music but you guys are the best! Everything from Tool to hip hop and in between.

Crown/flag in the back pocket - as in what you wear with the most pride “Hold you head high” - don’t limit/minimize yourself/potential to just gang life “Like you got Bloody nose Cousin” - Plays on the Flagging/Gang line

The Coast Contra Cosmic Kev Freestyle is a Must Reactions. They Went insane Crazy Bar 4 Bar 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Coast Contra is a throwback yetsuch a breath of fressh air...

That glucose and celiac bar was straight 🔥🔥🔥

The freestyles outshine the songs/album, but not because of the bars, but in the freestyles they are spitting over incredible production and you can see the performances...the album is still good. I unfortunately became a slave to shuffle as I don't listen to full albums after my initial listens...but Legacy, Pimpin Benjamin, Queen and Slim, and AF1 is straight energy

I REALLY like your reviews!!! You both appreciate all music, which is refreshing....coast contra are badass!

Rare is the best show of their lyrical ability. It is without the Spanish verse. Secondly, Cosmic Kevs freestyle

When you're running at 12, you only get to 21... Because of the 9 🔥

Y’all deserve 10million subs before the end of this year

When you guys get a chance, Oswin Benjamin, Chris Rivers, and Denzil Porter have a new freestyle together on Bootleg Kev. Very much worth checking out. Please!

MORE!!!! Coast please

The whole crew is tight

Great job and yes, come up show and Destruction...you MUST

This channel is NECESSARY! GREAT BREAKDOWN FELLAS!

First time i heard the bygones buy guns line was from JID in 2018 XXL freestyle

I love how at 18:37 you both switch from a side to side nod to an up an down nod at the same time. I didn't know y'all were choreographing dance moves now.

Yaaaaasss I was waiting on this one!!! 🎉🎉🎉

You guys are to dope, only ones to really deep the Cunningham bar👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 Also the Album is dope🔥🔥

These guys are something else.

I was waiting on this 🔥

These CC freestyles are like pokemon you GOTTA catch 'em ALL!

How to break down bars!! Why Hip Hop headz love true lyricism. Flow, cadence, punchlines, understanding, double entendres, wit, metaphors, deeper understanding. On a superb Mobb Deep beat. Makes you just want to nod in time.

Let’s gooooo man I’ve been waiting for this!!!

I’m glad y’all got to review this

The voodoo/doo doo line was classic Lauryn Hill.

Been waiting for this one!!

that “yea” in sync was so satisfying

Next reaction should be Peter Gabriel’s Sledgehammer.

That glucose line was hard asf what how I glue coast together get ride of the silly acts celiac the disease 💯🔥

Thanks for doing guys

Coast Contra 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Lost in Vegas still waiting for Lupe Fiasco Ms Mural 🙏🏽

“My house is glass, half full(fool) half empty Im the fool inside.” Motherfucking Einstein level genius 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯

Superb break down guys. I feel like God brought them together and hopefully they can revive hip hop to what it was. I agree, we need to see the albums reflect this great style they convey in their freestyles.

Get the worm on their album is one of my favorites, y’all should check it out

Them on cosmic kev please!

I think it's time to give Token another shot. Hi J. Cole is a clinic in flow. So many dope flows

From the album please check out Pimpin Benjamin. Straight 🔥🔥🔥 Or Legacy those are my favorite ones both are 🔥🔥🔥

The part 18:01, the Mirco is part of Excel as well. it used to record what you do on Excel, which then gets sorted on Excel, so when you go back to Excel you can replay that Micro you have recorded. No sure if that relates as well.

Songs from the album that I would like for you guys to check out: Legacy Pimp the Benjamin's Get the Worm

You have to react to coast contra on cosmic kev both of ras Austin’s verses are absolutely crazy
