what a trio to have on the same freestyle cypher.. one of the most underrated ones I've seen 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Edit: shoutout to Red Bull for bringing something like this to the culture.

[@lurxx5120]

SHOTS YOU LISTEN TO SABAAAAAA DERRRRRRR 😂🔥🔥🤝

@@lurxx5120 yessir 🔥🔥

[@hat3trick]

Big facts bro, it's rare to listen to something and every bar is perfectly placed.

[@jamespack378]

Still come back every time I'm on a youtube playlist. The only line i disagree with is IDK saying he can come up with some Smino shit. No one is like Smino. Not saying he's better. Just style wise. He's different.

How SABA didn't get as big or even bigger than herbo still baffles me. Man's has everything you need in a artist not just a rapper. CARE FOR ME is still top ten dead or alive.

He’s still going up

[@myyoutubeaccount4167]

And in their collab Saba rapped circles around Herb lol

Cause ignorance sales. Most likely why herbo last album wasnt that poppin

IDK is versatile , showing he can get into deep pockets but still likes to keep it fresh and understandable

[@tylerlevibald420]

Mick needs to release Pieces of a Man on vinyl. This man’s whole discography is worth its weight in gold 🙌

[@BrotherMalMusic]

If not for _The Circus,_ my favorite 3 album run ever would be _Pieces of a Man,_ _Elephant in the Room,_ _The Patience._ Those 3 albums are ridiculous. _Pieces of a Man_ has my favorite beat selection of any album. That and _Cilvia Demo_ by Isaiah Rashad.

[@aarondukes178]
