@@joserollo4852 Lux rap circles around black thought. Black Thought freestyle felt like true rapping but this loaded Lux freestyle could be in a museum foreal this has energy the beat Match the bars hit every other bar everything clicks.
took me like 30 minutes to listen to this. The word play is pretty much unmatched. its June 24th, 2023, and I came back to listen yet again, and I am STILL in complete awe of this one. Sooooo many double and triple entendres its RIDICULOUS! WHAT A MASTERPIECE!!!!!!!
@@Adam-ui3ot How yo gonna send me on another deep mission like this?! This is gonna take some time. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU. I'm 2 minutes/15 minutes in . hahahah. Send more. The writers are BACK. Makes me happy to be alive some how. Keep 'em comin. ✌🏿
There's so much more that people missed to this DAY.....take that "you're listening to a musician, I tried to tell this beautician a track ain't for horseplay"......simple enough....right? I GUARANTEE 99.9 % missed ....There's More in there....I'm 57 years old and shook my head when I heard it......ask me what? The track, music, horseplay, no fooling right? SIMPLE ENOUGH But what was missed was MUSICIAN, BEAUTICIAN and HORSEPLAY were all NAMES of horses that ran ......99% didn't know that
@@PHUCKcali maybe I'm missing something. I know beauticians put in weave, sometimes made of horse hair, like yackie pony. And the race track you can bet on. Could've slid in the idea of not for whores play, but what else did you figure out? I'm still bugging off the Eminem bar where he's like..I'd rather lose both my balls than lose to you Nick (unic). It's crazy, anyway, break down that Loaded bar, OG.
@@tristanbrothers THIS. I remember Black Thought's interview w/Jimmy where he said something like "There are 2 types of freestyle. The kind that just means no one ever heard it, and then there's off the dome. I did both."
"Around my way, If I'm on my way, and you in my way..... know if I dont get my way, ain't no way you gettin away" This is a crazy play on words, and an even crazier way to end it.
Iceberg Richie Slim I am a fan, but there is a lot you can take away from this freestyle...mostly the stank face :) back to being serious, I don't see criticism as problematic, this freestyle is amazing, you can see me all up in the comments excited about his wordplay, and the performance is amazing. Speaking of the performance, it is mad aggressive from bar 4 all the way until he says that line which is cool, it gives an effect like he builds it up and revvs it down at the end, very cool. What I thought was odd was the gun sound he made at the end (that also sounded like he said 'pay 'em'), it just seems to me that if you are going to do a gunshot there it would have a great(er) affect if it were louder and in contrast the decresendo that he was already doing, catching the listeners off guard. I cannot understand that one, and I do not want to ascribe any decision made as a technical error (breath control), judgement error (exhaustion=failure in preparation; poor judgement), and especially not an oversight, I have way too much respect for that man, his craft and the way he goes about his craft for that. I am still open to hearing another way of thinking about that moment, but right now, I wish that last gunshot/pay 'em had more aggression on it. what do you think?
Around my way, If I'm on my way, and you in my way BUT ALSO Around my weight, If I'm on my "weight, and" (weight in) you in my weight know if I dont get my way, ain't no way you gettin away CRAAAZY
I agree with you if he just added a little more aggression on that last part I feel like it would have been way more impactful .the line is fire just missed that umph on it
And on my first listen that shit went right over my head I ain't even expect such witty shit so early in the rap! On my second listen was like damn I ain't even comprehend.
Flex was still trying to put the first bar and punch together. Just thought I'd swing bi like a girl that's curious. Rumor has it he's still calculating the line
@@tyroneguiles5589 Lil Wayne has GHOSTWRITERS your statement NULL&VOID🤡💩The TRUE listener's of REAL RAP know LUX is in another dimension and the scary part is he didn't PEAK yet🥶🦁👑💯
This number 1 for me ever, Blackthought was great too, the difference is the delivery, charisma the energy the change in flows this guy had, its just top tier no cap.
"You're slow, at least a turtle (Lisa Turtle) knows exactly why Morris (Zach Morris) never lifted weights with slater (A.C. Slater), what may have saved ya is, I missed the bell then... but know ya principals (Mr. Belding was the principal), cause branching out, they don't teach that in judicial school (judicial branch of government)". if you're too young to have watched "saved by the bell" you will never realize how fire those few lines really were 😔
Cosmic Background Radiation One of My favorite line's in this! smh He demolished this freestyle an yup only old head's cought this rhyme scheme. I'm a 80's baby thank God cuz like lux said these boy's in dick huggers messin the game up
There's a few times where he doesn't even end the bar but those who know music can finish the sentence with no problem. Good stuff in '22 still handsome 💯💪🏿✊🏿
@@positive_vibes_2427 I understand the point, but to call it astute? Seems like a reach. I didn't find the camera work remotely close to the freestyle.
No way, no lion, NAH , never. Problem is many consider themselves lion, and even lions think they rule the jungle. The problem is that even Lions have to SHUT THE FCCK UP when the ELEPHANT ENTERS THE SCENE Loaded Lux IS THE ELEPHANT Lions have to keep stepping.
Sean David They understand it, they just favor what I personally call stripper rap and trap, cause of popularity. They know what real hip hop sounds like, they playing stupid.
Sean David you act like this is basic bars. when I first heard battle rap I didn't understand shit! I'm not saying I would get every damn bar but the more you get used to it and listen you will eventually catch up. and you should pipe down and stop acting too much and saying extra shit like.. "I feel sorry for people" that don't understand lyricism. what a fucking joke. get off your basement bruh. get laid or someshit
Damn years later i appreciate this freestyle more now than when it came out there aint a freestyle on flex that is better than what lux did!! SALUTE BOI WAS ON FIRE
Lost Substance Tv You right about different bar. He literally said "Im the bar, measuring rod, this where you draw the line on your screen turning it out like like some etcha sketching knobs." ridiculous
@@williedarrett1410bruh everytime i come back i catch something. Just peeped the "thats the lux wit the gray hoodie/that water under a HIGHBRIDGE, A I CAN BOOGIE"
I mean this with all sincerity, this is by far the most artistic expression of the English language that has ever been recorded over a rap/hip hop beat. Not one lazy verse, a smooth introduction, unmatched creativity , depth of knowledge, and above all else authenticity.
“Storm troop fighting a strong case why the long face !” Star Wars reference as the storm troopers helmets reflect long sad faces. But also referencing the battles of going to court fighting a drawn out case.
Lux: "I was in the areas, just thought I would swing by (bi) like a girl that's curious" Me: Leans forward with eyes wide like this ain't the 73rd time I heard it.
3:18 He said: Ill tear a nigga like ammonia got funky ya shooter aint sent(scent) nothing but a roamer (aroma) .. Lux stay loaded wit' Barz in the Barz ....#WeOnTv203
After countless listens, I've decided that bar for bar, this is the greatest freestyle ever. It's been like 100 times, and every time I catch something new
The camera person also deserves credit for the way this performance was shot. Somehow, this freestlye was shot in a much more dynamic way than all of the others. It made the whole ting more enjoyable, when combined with Lux's sublime skills.
This is truly the best freestyle ever, it's just too good.. The lyrical skill, the bars, the prowess the cadence... We appreciate you Lux.. Flex call him again
87toycam some part of this man is a demon. Them bars bring nothing but violence. I dam near punch my wall, through my chair pillow listening to all these bars he spit
Prince Mthalane IN A YR. OR LESS THERE WILL BE ANOTHER MC. 2 COME UP THERE & KNOCK YOUR TOP OFF THE SPRAY- PAINT CAN TRUST MIGHT B BLACK? MIGHT B WHITE? LATINO? OR ASIAN? MIGHT BE DIK? MIGHT B CHIC BUT SUM 1'S GONNA TOAST THAT MIC LIKE A POP-TART!! 😍😛
@@tommykeith6589 Its going to take a while for ppl to catch up.. This too dense for it to be 7 whole ass minutes and it was consistent. But i Hope somebody tops this itll be great for Hip Hop.
Yo this is hands down the best "freestyle" ever recorded. The bars are endless and each time you listen you find a new meaning to the bars you already thought you figured out 3 times before. This is lyrical fitness..
I would agree if I never heard black thought's hot 97 freestyle and the fact that he actually freestyles is bananas if you haven't seen it check it out
