Slaughterhouse - Freestyle {High Volume} (First Time On Hot 97 With Funkmaster Flex)

Huh? Go Listen to some Holo / Warcloud. Hot 97, that _Silkworm_ record, _Bastard Swordsmen_ (w/ Killarmy), _Fever Dream, Crunch Time,_ etc. And I got mad respect for Slaughter House. They're like many others- on A level just below Holo.

“I skipped the club line and don’t get turned around. So girls come at a high volume, I don’t turn em down. No pregnant girls and no minors. A1 verses with Em as a co-signer.” I love how people view Joe nowadays. He’s kind of a corny dude with a podcast. But the older heads know. Joe has bars for days. Him and Royce are just different MCs that deliver their verses calmly and methodically. But it doesn’t make them any less proficient as rappers. Joell and Crook are just straight monsters and cannot be fucked with lyrically. So sad that this group was ended due to bad business(something they actually all agreed on). But we should be thankful that Eminem recognized greatness in all of them and put them together for us to enjoy. Any one of them(including Joe) will rap circles around your favorite MC. Maybe one day they’ll get back together and make an album. 🤷🏻‍♂️
