On the metro on the way to work for a 25 hour shift, getting recommended MGK and Cordae’s freestyle and I’m sincerely wondering if I’ve got too old for hiphop. But then this came second and I realized hell no. Also Thought’s latest album with El Michels Affair, Glorious Game been on repeat in my headphones. I’m sure thankful he, along with some others, really age with the game and doing it like fine wine.
Talib, please bring mighty mit's Ali Clarissa Shields, little bear has liberty bars
Nothin else needs to be said..
As real as it gets!!!
Smooth Killin it. Nothing but greatness.
Hip Hop Don’t Stop – 215 –
Can you black people please tell me what can you even see thru those black glasses? It's barely visible there WITHOUT them in the nightclubs. What can you see with the locs on? Like wtf?
That Burn beat belongs to Thought now
What is the name of the song Black thought is rapping
Caught Rakim in New Orleans two weeks ago. Great Show
Always been one of the best
I wish all of these guys much success and I personally respect all of them. One love to you and yours. Stoic warriors for the one and only G.o.A.T. Black Thought.
Extremely underrated and it's a shame the youth are brainwashed by dumbed down music
Wow, this is awesome!! I gotta track their next date!
That was fucking incredible.
This is pure DOPENESS
Rakim and Black Thought episodes on People’s Party??????
Talib the fake pro-black who don't even know black History. It's a disgrace seeing these two greats on stage with this imposter, but I better not say to much,he'll send the rainbow people after you, like he did to me on Twitter for three days.yall keep thinking this man conscious you'll end up greatly disappointed. He'll send them rainbow people on you.. I'm loving proff he did it to me it's on my Twitter page since last year I got the proff .. This is not hate I just wanted to tell the truth about this man..
Most of the freestyle bars were from his 10-minute session on Funk Flex. Thought has endless lyrics filed away in his memory bank and just withdraws them as necessary
Low Key Kwali was hating.
Never heard better freestyle in my life
I’ll listen to these guys before the current rappers all day.
Reek been doing this in his sleep since the 90’s I remember him and EST showed up in a club in Philly on Delaware Ave and was going back and forth for like and hour freestyle we we’re lucky we didn’t have to pay for that cipher that day it would’ve been like a million dollars a head
Yassss
Looks like the makings of a Rap group! Maybe add Yasmin Bey or Krit?
