Illmac | Studio cypher w TEAMBACKPACK (prod. By Chase Moore)

[@chriswillett6637]

I've had this on repeat for 7 years

[@TrulyWicked-df2dq]

me as well good sir.

[@Zmad724]

How can one writer/battle rapper be so underrated?....ILLMAC is a MONSTER. It's about time that people started noticing, he's been like this for over a decade.

[@illmacTV]

+Zachary Madden 🙏

[@EliteOnTheBeat]

Ill mac underrated monster no doubt they don't wanna notice you until after you die. Look everybody bumping mac miller in there ride.....RIP MAC MILL

[@bradb6138]

Yea.. Nothing new here, just that much iller than a year ago. Every year he gets better.

[@urgessagemeda411]

Team backpack is straight desrispectful. This is alien brain spitting high level bars!!

[@corywittamori896]

Illmac is better than a casual can recognize. That's the problem. He is a rappers rapper. If you write , you know. Alot of unknown unknowns to casuals. Makes me sick how underrated his stuff is. Not only is he my favorite artist but I think his best performances are at times unmatched. His peak is insane.

[@MrLejonkalven]

"Sometimes I go over heads just to light the bulb" MAN

[@alexdrummond3848]

slept on mc

[@ChaseMooreTV]

yeee! we in here, can't wait for you guys to hear "Still Standing"

[@corywittamori896]

Back again for the hundredth time. Thanks illy

[@corywittamori896]

Bro I’ll never stop bumping this

[@VeLLe8910]

It's a ritual for me to listen to this masterpiece every once in a while, I can't get enough... but real talk how tf is this not more exposed? Like I know it's not club music or necessarily radio music (sad) but how tf is this not flooded by so called lyricists because this shit is peak level right here...

[@theremnant216]

Very much feel the same way. Illmac is the definition of next level. So few can do once what he does so consistently.

[@Bmoravec224]

Preach

[@kevinbradford9370]

Because this type of flow don't evoke emotion and get people amped, hyped, etc. It's just a think piece, like a humble brag about "look how good I can put words together". None of it goes together, none of it is on beat. He's been like this a decade, needs to update his flow pattern if he wants exposure

[@VeLLe8910]

@@kevinbradford9370 oof… I will start out by thanking you for sharing your thoughts but I must also say that I completely disagree with almost everything… “You don’t catch a line, it’s fine, I know - somestimes I go over heads just to light the bulp”… Some of it might be a little more poetic and metaphorical than it needs to but I do not at all think that it is without meaning or just to brag.

[@emeraldknight2342]

"This is light exposed, this like minin' coal and findin' gold/ Death's touch, God's love, so the cycle goes/ Medusa's stare, Cupid's arrow, Zeus's lightning bolt/ The Pilate Stone, Osiris and Isis' throne/ The third eye of Horus, the trident Poseidon holds/" 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@JRent506]

Amazing. Hugely inspirational man. Can't believe how dope you are. This needs more views!

[@illmacTV]

+JustinRent u are appreciated! More coming! Illmaculate.bandcamp.com

[@kevinklampe2350]

Tell me about it. When was the first time you heard this? I can spit most of it.

[@kevshady35ginding4life7]

The fact that this is live, no lip singing/Rapping, to me is fucking incredible!!!!

[@dukedouglass3878]

This and raising the bar 5 are ridiculous. Had it on repeat for two days. And he killed rone.

[@blakefisher5148]

After all these years never noticed the queen shirt. Msd respect one of of favorite bands of all time.

[@JanusForssling]

GOAT

[@heidetermeg427]

Straight up the BEST verse I've EVER heard. The amount of multi syllable rhymes and similes is one thing. Those Lilith bars and "saw my other half/magicians' assistants" are so BEYOND, that you'd be hard pressed to find any bar better than that. Greg just murdered everybody - and very casually at doing so :P

[@vexelreglage]

Illmac spits the most powerful lyrics!!!

[@cryptopheles1321]

It’s a crime against music that Illmac hasn’t been launched into the stratosphere by now. Absolutely atrocious flow, then there’s Chase Moore - the Architect of the environment - who’s beats ALONE should be setting clubs off all over the world. Both are at the pinnacle of their respective crafts and both equally as underrated. Can’t say how many many times I’ve relistened to this over the years. It’s like I pick up something new every time. Dude is my biggest inspiration lyrically and I’ll never be grateful enough. 👏🏽🙏🏽

[@chasebeal8183]

"I ate forbidden fruit from the tree of knowledge And stole Lillith from Adam on the eve he had his rib removed". Illmac sends chills up my spine man; so glad I found out about you from your cypher!

[@nate9689]

dude is super dope the flow is stupid been listening for years ….

[@zacksparrow4393]

What a fucking coalition! Chase Moore and illmac god damn the beat is some heat

[@OrangeGalactus]

"Sometimes I go over heads just to light the bulb"......ILL!

[@illmacTV]

+Nan Zavala 🙏

[@sagejames3689]

this is the kind of sound that within the first 4 seconds you know it's time to spark something, turn up the volume, and get lost.

[@richarddotschmidt]

Illmac, Lucas, King Los , Locksmith. I don't know the order but these are the GOAT

[@kevinmitchell8453]

If that's the list of goats, you are missing 2nd, Joe Con. Hit a 17 minute freestyle and starts with the last line and builds his freestyle backwards. Called Avatar state of mind, again, Joe Con. Forever a goat, of he ain't the king of goats.

[@MainlyMeVideos]

Still standing is an understatement. this shit is go good

[@blackadam6445]

Medusa stare Cupid’s arrow zeus’s lightning bolt. The pilot stone on Osiris and isiss throne, the third of eye Horus, the trident Poseidon hold….. I fucking swear that’s the dopest shit I’ve hear in my 25 years of life gtfo

[@blue_hunnids13]

This will forever be a masterpiece! I bump this religiously !

[@richardnieves8491]

Let's keep it real. This video needs billions of view, and let's all be honest here, this is the realist thing you'll ever get the pleasure to see in your time of earth

[@illmacTV]

+Richard Nieves damn, means a lot homie! More coming !

[@vinny5638]

_Inside my skull is a thought bubble where I am home.. but, I don't know if I'm alone in this biodome. - Suicidal prone; use a blade to find a pulse, finger/gun to my temple; I fire chrome until my mind is blown, tie a rope around my neck, climb an oak, jump from the tree, uproot it and leave a giant hole_

[@travisduarte7176]

so fire

[@SelwynBaptistebsc]

Yeah, he went Slim Shady on that section. Kind of made me tune out after that.

[@ericponce8388]

Selwyn Baptiste don't worry. illmac will light your bulb

[@James4Jesus]

these lyrics resonate with my soul!

[@asthmaticalwarwizzle5166]

Such fire... repeatedly spamming this vid and still can't get enough of it.

[@vinny5638]

_Aint glorifyin', that sorta violence is moritifying; mommas morning cryin' in name of the lord; the lord was silent. Course he more defiant, sure that there's more to life than being poor & dyin', morning coffe with lawyers, the court assignin'._ too many quotable schemes, this shit is fire.

[@malikturner187]

I became a fan from the bar fight with Porter. Damn Illmac is a BEAST and of course Chase Moore bringing that HEAT with the beat as usual. Perfect combination.

[@ericponce8388]

Malik Turner Damn u got a lot of catching up to do. Illmac been beastin since '04

[@goodcatfilms4276]

Chase Moore and illmac ! Like mac and cheese 🧀 haha nahhh too early for that BS lol love this shit

[@benlister4801]

I'd say this is my 30th listen since it came out and it just gets better with age. Absolute classic writing... One for the ages. Illnac's a certified beast with the pen

[@dakotathomas2139]

There's something special about this beat. It's so perfectly crafted. It is the key to unlocking another level of higher conscious. I ain't even playing this beat is so Jay Elec it's unreal.

[@RenegadeMGMT]

Chase producin FIRE and ILLMAC compliments it perfectly. #Respect

[@FatalShotGG]

Your music is insanely inspirational, and your style is awesome man! It baffles me that more people haven't gotten an opportunity to enjoy your music yet. Much respect to you dude!

[@joserivera4286]

[@xavierfrancis8954]

[@tuckersdadnb]

[@andymcleod8276]

Holy shit, I'm drowning in quality bars 💥💥💥

[@MainlyMeVideos]

Hell ya Mac you killin it, #1 underrated rapper

[@kingk1623]

One of the greatest people to compose literature ever.

[@lucidnumber9680]

I when he gets to "on the eve he had his ribs removed" I get that spine tingle, goosebumps music can give you some times. Shit is real.

[@davidk8055]

"..Spit some shit for you to ice pick and choose/ do the math, long division proof you'd gasp if you saw my other half like magician assistant do.. " 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 illmac never disappoints..

[@illmacTV]

+David K hahha 🙏

[@jraymond1988]

I feel like the magician's assistant line was used in a battle....probably also by Illmac though.

[@ericponce8388]

JTR it was in his battle either against DNA or Charlie Clips. I want to say Charlie but not 100% sure. It was one of the 2 for sure though.

[@NotABand]

I remember being under the Hawthorne bridge with you in the cipher... always slayed it. You've come far, and clearly worked so hard, its just great to see you found your stride and truly express yourself with style and intensity.... I really enjoyed this. -Tyler (Spek)

[@illmacTV]

+Vow of Volition my g, it's all I got. No turning back now! Lol

[@NotABand]

that makes two of us my friend

[@carlreynolds2418]

Vow of Volition heavy mannn

[@garciasimpson1138]

Illmac is the truth!! Wordplay and delivery is masterful!!

[@Jordanbobryk-riglin]

[@realeques]

bruv...was searching for some old freestyles... tripped over this...holy fucking shit he a beast

[@johnregenbaigh6555]

bruhhhh...I ran this shit back 4 times smh real rap real barzzz real wisdom...salute. and still one of my favorite battlers

[@davemcbride895]

probably 200 of these views are just from me in the last 2 weeks. Top 20 verse for me ever, Top 3 in years and in my opinion, Illmacs best 4 minutes he's ever done. Shout out to Chase Moore too though, beat is bananas. Been a fan since those first few battles with Thesaurus, you two are what got me started watching battle rap. #salute

[@illmacTV]

+Dave McBride I'm humbled 🙏 thanks for listening homie. A LOT more coming

[@spiritminstrel]

Illmac - one of the very few who have dominated battle rap AND sounds fire on a track. His recorded output ranks the best of the best of all of the battle rappers. A true artist.

[@DocSuessMusic]
