I’m kinda Surprised that Shwab didn’t catch the call back to his Victor verse on the trainer cypher. Breeton as hop says “Claim he been the Victor don’t care what he says he on” as a call back to Shwab ending his verse with “I’m the Victor, remember the name bitch.”

I honestly thought Chi Chi's verse was a nice change of pace compared to the rest. But i have to admit thet that might be because i'm a little bias towards her because i love her style and it's almost an instant click when i see her on a song/cypher, and i can see how that change of pace can throw other people off. Also, i rarely catch any bar that isnt an obvious one so you stopping and explaining the 45 DEGREES bar wasreally nice and really helpful. Looking fowards to your next reactions and songs

im generally not a fan of the Shauna verse as it just completely swaps styles to a massive degree with no pause nor any impact on the gen 7 or 8 verses. If the Gen 7 verse was more similar to 6's it wouldve generally landed better. For me its just a complete flow killer. Hugh's verse going good- then Shauna's completely takes an entirely different direction- then straight back to Hugh's sorta style with Hau's verse. Was like riding in a car with someone and they goin 40- then slam on the brakes only to just go back to 40

@@betabee1221 i can see that and i agree.

45 Degrees and I'm surprised that you missed so many of the callbacks to the previous cyphers. Ham Sandwich copying the "That dude Blue" and initial flow from Gyee, Breeten references both your bar from the Trainer Cypher with "Claim he been the victor, don't care what he says he on" (to be fair that might not be a direct reference since the character's name is Victor but it definitely feels like one.) and the "Champion Time" line referencing Dan's verse from the Champion Cypher. Honestly I'm growing to love how much these cyphers are starting to feed into each other.

Kevin Bennett's whole vibe, flow, and story in this is just a great example of being able to make a great verse without constants bars. He's just such a good rapper in general, extremely happy that he was on this cypher. Definitely prefer verses where there's more said too but Kevin's verse came early enough in the cypher for that to not be a worry for the verse. Chi Chi's verses often feel kind of empty to me in cyphers, I get they're serving a different purpose but Id rather more of what we already were getting, but thats just what I want from a cypher, totally cool for those who like her stuff and the pacing it brings. 45 DEGREES

I’m usually the other way around. I hear others mentioned they liked Chi-Chi’s other verses in previous cyphers before and felt like I was forced to like them as well. Here in this cypher actually was phenomenal.
@megasecptile39962 жыл бұрын
Chi-Chi's verse, personally, felt very out of place as Shawb's had said. It felt off and very forced to add some uniqueness in it. ESPECIALLY after the elemental monkey bars Ty was spitting at the end. Not to mention that she was moreso describing Shauna and making name flips moreso than leaving an impression through the bars As a stand alone verse, it's nice and I like it. But it falls flat while in a cypher where everyone up to that point was rapping and had some hard bars.
@angelicwarrior1182 жыл бұрын
@@megasecptile3996 say what you want. I really liked her presence in the cypher. It’s for several reasons, but one of them’s because she was the only female participant. And I’m sure there are some bars that you didn’t catch. The Deli-catty line is to me, quite well done and, like Trickywi’s verse in the champion cypher, it was a good mix of singing and rapping. Finally, as a pair of side-notes, I genuinely dislike swear words (and pretty much all other NSFC content). For this reason, I’m not particularly fond of Mix Williams’s verse in the cypher. Also, I am sixteen at this moment, probably making me the youngest viewer here, and while I’m sure most people of my age don’t care about NSFC content, I tend to usually not like such content. And second, I’m rather new to nerdcore. Before watching/listening to the cypher, I didn’t know who The Kevin Bennett, Politicess, Ty Wild, or Mega Ran. Similarly, prior to this year, I was completely unaware of the nerdcore legends Dan Bull and shofu. I’m still very new with not having much (if any) knowledge before this year, so I am still getting to know my world. Can anybody help explain some artists like the ones I mentioned?
@megasecptile39962 жыл бұрын
@@angelicwarrior118 I respect your opinion in liking her presence in the cypher. Again, yes it was interesting but did seem forced to add some diversity by having A. A singer B. A female Not that I hate it, I was all for it but it seemed to stop the tempo and flow everyone else was going off each other. And I've been around since Shofu dropped the 2013 Pokemon Cypher so I understood the bars, for the most part, but don't like capitalizing those that seem obvious. Again, I like her verse if it was a stand-alone verse. Tricky is a different case since it did flow off of Diggz's small pause after his verse and the instrumental change within that gap. And with the swears, that's fine. It's not everyone's cup of tea but that does restrict the amount of solid verses that include them to flow very easily on the beat. With that said, I assume gun bars aren't your thing at all either. Again, perfectly fine but it is something that's reoccurring in the nerdcore community at points. And to help you understand the artists; Ham Sandwich - Blew up during the Pokemon Cypher 2019 entry contest Shofu held. Very solid bars and has a wide range of vocals and flows. Peep GameBoy Jones' KZbin Geek Rap Cypher whom also has- (also swears) Shofu - The person who has popularized Pokemon Raps, and is a very bar heavy rapper. Popularized Pokemon Cyphers and it in general, personally at least. He rarely drops now but he always steps the game up with each release. Also has his own crew, Cypher Gang/WDFA FDNX. This group includes the original people who were with him: Scoot, Shizzy (VI Seconds), Archer, Matt Houston, OmarCameUp. But as time went on, it grew and soon became to what it is now: Pe$o Pete, Oddwin, BlackLynk, TokenBlack, ShofuThaBeatdown, G Yee, Tanukes, Kezura, ShueTube, CTC, and a few more (Swears) Ty Wild - Another person who rarely drops but features almost every other nerdcore song. That said, he bases his verses with fast rapping and heavy double entendres or even more references. Overall an amazing artist. (Swears) Politicess - A VERY aggressive person on the mic. That doesn't mean that he still has bars though, he often does wordplays or makes heavy references. (Swears a lot) MegaRan - Many say he's the OG before the OGs that are Rustage and NLJ. I don't know too much about him but he has bars for sure, that's for sure. TL;DR - It's fine to like Chi-Chi's verse in the cypher. I liked it if it was a stand-alone verse. We both have our opinions and say and I respect yours. And check out the other nerdcore artists - just warning you though, heavy swearing at almost every point.

@@megasecptile3996 thanks for all this info. While I will forever remain adamant on disliking curses, I don’t really understand “gun bars” very much. For example, in Ty Wild’s verse, I didn’t initially know that he made a gun bar in the part where indirectly referenced Simisear. And I also didn’t initially view the term “red sight” as relating to guns. And yes, I don’t like these “gun bars” as they seem to promote violence, although I don’t get almost any of them. One more note: I think that our opposing opinions are a good thing. As long as one doesn’t get very hypocritical (or disrespect my view towards something) and rant in such a manic tone, I will be completely fine.
