Killer Mike and EL-P freestyle on

[@thewalrusdragon9579]

I really think El-p is Killer Mike’s biggest fan. Like he just sits there smiling and you can tell he’s thinking “I am so lucky this dude loves my beats as much as I love his flow”.

[@niclinker619]

That's so funny cuz Mike always talks about how he's el-p's biggest fan and how much he loves his beats as much as his flows haha they are always at their best together.

[@edwardpolenzani4900]

lol, Killer Mike looks hilarious straight up cheesin' while el is spittin

[@jimmyrusslesphd530]

+Edward Polenzani almost lost his shit when El spilled that drink

[@owenfullerton4129]

You know they're both high as shit behind those glasses

[@MrKillerswamp]

man EL-P is so ahead of our time. his lyrics are so deep his flow is so refreshing, and his beats are on a whole other level. and killer mike has such a great voice and his lyrics are more direct and in your face than with EL-P and i like that about him. Man i'm glad they became a rap duo

[@xShamanx]

I just gotta say that I appreciate that you are a metalhead that is also a Rap music enthusiast! Great music is great music.

[@MrKillerswamp]

dued27 Well i used to be a hip hop fan only but slowly i was getting into rock and metal and i love every kind of music as long as it's good music doesnt matter if its blues, rock, metal, pop, but hip hop is propably still my favorite genre.

[@xShamanx]

Metal is my favorite genre but I have been really getting into hip hop for the past few years. haha!

[@zachtrillson]

No.

[@Myegoisdead]

Lol fuck you mean ahead of our time

[@wozing]

"Cut the beat." *Proceeds as Clipping.*

[@perfectelectrics]

*playground ambiance with plates breaking*

[@JuliusSpin]

That was great guys! Not just the spit, but everything, the respect is seen from all sides, good stuff.

[@g.b.174]

Clearly the most underrated MC’s period....

[@stoshmoney9004]

Company flow was dope..

[@paddytate742]

I know right Good to see el p making some money now And didn’t sell out at all

[@joerostkowski7313]

The illusion been broke and got the El p rookie card stuck in their bicycle spoke!

[@cosmogrammar]

awesome how much love these guys have for each other. get RTJ back on sway guys..

[@PivotDirector]

Ay reporting from 8 years later, he just had Killer Mike on to discuss his new album and it was great.

[@alexbluev]

Back in the Old School, Freestyle actually IMPLIED written, by the way....

[@JonahS777]

Word!

[@piGfuK3r]

Wtf? Nah. It was supposed to be off the head... bullshit

[@JoeFish919]

SenatoR gittRduN no it was a freestyle because it was free of style not because it’s off the top.

[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

as long as it was your bars, you could spit whatever you wanted. nobody cares if you used the same bars every time

[@Dikwili]

Alex Blue V bullshit. It meant of the top of the dome.

[@aschemusicreations]

For the last fucking time. FREESTYLE DOES NOT MEAN OFF THE DOME. Freestyle simply means you are rapping over a random beat with any given type of flow. The lyrics can be written, and mostly are.

[@mmezinwogu7849]

Actually freestyle is improvised.

[@aschemusicreations]

Mmezi Nwogu freestyle can have improvised lyrics or not, but the STYLE is FREE. Meaning that the flow over the beat is improvised, spontaneous ly coming up with rhymes is optional when freestyling, and generally links written portions of lyrics together.

[@mmezinwogu7849]

No man. Its just the words. BTW El-P used a verse off of Mike's album, so does that count as freestyle?

[@aschemusicreations]

Mmezi Nwogu yeah it does, because it wasn't over the original beat.

[@JonahS777]

Exactly! I hate how many times I have to tell people this..Idiots everywhere, yo.

[@Medicatedsloth]

Killer Mike was sayin' "pause" when "no homo" was still popular

[@Starlord-fe3yl]

El and Mike are awesome together I can't believe they actually got together at that time

[@silverstuddedsabertoothdream]

El-p, his first freestyle verse, was from a song he was in on Killer Mike's song Butane

[@GBDazzler]

Killer mike killed it, but damn i wish he'd done something over Last Dayz

[@alecbeatz]

These two dudes are hip hop idols!

[@ToroidalVortexLove]

So unbelievably talented.

[@daver-m7022]

Mike just kills it a capella

[@druha10304]

killer mike is a fucking beast , that flow had me amazed

[@creamcornjedi8512]

Get you someone that looks at killer Mike like EL-p

[@ironmb86]

Knocked cup over, still killed it. LMao

[@TheSakebomb1]

I heart killer mike so much

[@808BALN808]

Killer Mike and Jarren Benten should do a collaboration

[@claytonlawrence7819]

jfhjgfjhgfghhgjhgjhgc 💯that would be so dope

[@westernbucknut5676]

Alan Santiago that would be too great to actually happen, unfortunately...

[@cameronrichardson5381]

LPs verse obviously written right off the bat but I love how mike is just so high and loving it that he sells out his boy, finishes verses and shit then straight up says "LP flexes with a written" I was gonna do it do one too but "fuck that lemme feel these vibes out" lol love these guys, this comment could go on forever and probably no one will see it but I'm so happy I heard this. and the chat at the end when they get real and give the love to sway is super cool, he a real one, he takes chances and sway says "our heart is in the right place" also he says "y'all are my friends, I know we don't send texts on the holidays n shit but we homies" obviously I'm paraphrasing btw for all the haters of anyone does end up reading this but this is why hip hop still exists right here man. I'm clearly ranting now and making no sense I'm sure (10 beers deep, honestly is key) but run the jewels and sway in the morning are TRUE HIP HOP/RAP whatever you wanna classify it as, they are why I love poetry mixed with a beat or a rhythm and just straight passion. the love is real, and I wish I had the balls to do what they do. mike straight up spit off the top and cut the beat (which I usually don't like)but he was so raw and real with it you can't hate. anyways if anyone out there cares to read this, hmu for real and I'll give you a freestyle, clearly I'm not a bot tryna promote my shit, just a shy guy who has bars and passion and lyricism hidden inside him. like I said them even being there is crazy to me, so nervracking but I also hope to God (not that I really believe)that someone read this ramble and shouts me out because I'll surprise myself and best of all I'll surprise you, promise I won't waste your time. insta: @cam_richardson9 p.s by the time I finished this I sobered up and almost didn't hit send lmao E.L.E shout out Jackie moon, ok that's enough I already regret this but look forward to a random message🤔😂🤦‍♂️

[@schematicb5393]

Mike's flow on this was something else

[@zionisgone]

The definition friendship

[@nichobert]

When you can write like El-P, why would you even bother learning to freestyle? And even if you could, why would you bother employing it on the radio when you're only on the radio to sell albums? Might as well spit shit that you know will go well. I'm 35 and i never got why people got so mad about freestyling. or authenticity in general.

[@DweeD1516]

Half true. Its about the speed and versatility of the mind. How quickly your mind can react to the changing situation and the creativity capabilities of the more complex functions of the human brain. If your pretending it is that while its scripted you're a fake and deceitful not in the worst way but still and does not display the aforementioned attributes. Thats why.

[@vwsyncro]

praxis veritatis you are very smart.

[@ghostshipone]

praxis veritatis agreed man. But I also don’t necessarily like freestyles if they’re corny.. talk about what’s going on in those dark corners or the bright corners of your mind.. if you can’t that’s cool. And don’t. Rap a song you wrote. All good. But just be fucking honest about it

[@cm9241]

I'll take a decent written over a freestyle any day

[@Mexicaninja45]

EL-P just murders the sweet lil beat

[@igotacos64]

yes, he does. look up aesop rok immortal technique freestyle, el-p makes an appearance and spits heat off the dome.

[@earyar57]

OH MY GOD KILLA MIKE!!!!!!! KILLED IT.

Didn't know killer Mike was black

[@confiscate9956]

2:26 he did it before tha rap god did it!

[@confiscate9956]

@Adapted MC No! Em might have watched this freestyle but the original one is from JJ Fad - Supersonic at the last 30 seconds of the song. Em says the name of the song and the band right before the line in Rap God to pay homage, he says "lyrics comic at you with supersonic speed JJ Fad", JJ Fad(a band of girl rappers) was one of the first to come up with this fast flow, that now has a total genre of rappers called Choppers, check out one of JJ Fad MC-s doing the fast part on rap god /watch?v=-luDgk8IshI

[@El-Gato69]

Yes, fucking enrich my life with this new culture.

[@nichobert]

Killer Mike and El-P are like the greatest combination ever. What happened to SL Jones? I'd slap babies in the street to get an album full of Killer, El-P and SL Jones on top of EL-P beats

[@ehd2125]

"matters where your heart is"

[@AD3Basketball]

El-P spazzing on that Redman beat...Thats Redman "Smoke Buddah" for those that dont know...

[@TumzFestivalYT]

There's a lot of talk about El-P compared to Eminem for obvious reasons, the most significant being their individual talent. While the New York upbringing definitely had the one-upmanship Eminem is notorious is for; It's oranges and apples. As far as who's better: Their styles and approaches are so different on a fundamental artistic level that it's hard to compare the two. Eminem can be shocking sometimes at how long he's able to sustain a flow and turn a phrase, El-P taps into something that makes him fun to listen to (after so many interviews I guess it's the New York aspect). They're both legends in their own right, but they're not the same artist which is ultimately a good thing when it comes to getting as many voices heard as possible. Compare El-P's relationship with his mother versus Eminem for instance, just as the first example to come to mind.

[@LeoMes01]

Killer mike and El P are modern day Mobb Deep

[@sl00pjoeb]

Killer Mike did a written too, but it was still amazing.

[@cameronrousseau5055]

Killer Mike's was on R.A.P. Music too, it's Ok!

[@jpkillah]

Dat Killer Mike grin though!

[@User37621]

what verse did el spit? Which track is it from?

[@Styleb4all]

If you haven't found the verse since posting this, it's from the song that he featured on in Mike's album RAP Music. I believe it's called butane. Better late than never I guess. 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@FirstLast-vl1uy]

Those first two beats are two of my favorite ever. Wish he didn't go acapella.

[@QuestForKnowledge204]

He's still making music. Check out his song SLAB.

[@hi00118]

Mike fucking killed that shit lol I don’t care if it was a written

[@mcgreytone]

merry christmas! in June

[@Superultradude123]

Fuck what's that second beat that they had playin?? I know that shit!

[@patrickallen3139]

not sure what song it's from, but im pretty sure its a beat they used in one of the 8 mile rap battles. not 100% sure though

[@Superultradude123]

I found it, it's Last Dayz by Onyx

[@RadaRadaYadaYada20]

Redman - smoke buddah

[@mpls4d]

+Superultradude123 I heard that Onyx track, but on the real, I'm pretty sure that 9th Wonder produced it. Check out "Phonte - Last Day / First Day"

[@mpls4d]

+Superultradude123 No idea which came first though, but I will say it sounds an awful lot like a 9th beat.

[@ENIME760EMS]

damn el-p just fuckin wrecks mics

[@LordJHouse]

VOCAL GYMNASTICS.

[@SpencerArinhaveamom]

El p changed the game fr fr

[@vth0601]

What's Killer mike's beat at the start? I cant remember.

[@peterchoi9523]

[@designatedpiledriver8216]

Run the jewels is sick. But what i really want is either company flow back for at least one last album OR and album thats run the jewels vs company flow. I think that would be fucking sick

Does Sway age ?

[@spongeaang98]

You people are aware they not every freestyle has to be right of the top of your head right? Legends like Eminem have done it.

[@ProdByClockwerk]

A freestyle doesn't technically have to bee off the dome you idiot.

[@noxiousinferno7997]

Anyone know the beat?

[@MrFriendorfiend]

ya'll remember when Run The Jewels invented friendship

[@c0dead]

ELP can free, kids. Look him up. Just because he did a written for this doesn't mean shit

[@andgalactus1]

Most rappers do writtens on these type of radio shows, when they don't have a written you can usually tell and it's never as good. Freestyling is hard kiddies even the pro's have to have a few rhymes in mind.

[@davidmillican7870]

so much for freestylin

[@wariosandpaper4019]

have you seen the infamous canibus vs dizaster battle in which canibus pullsout the notepad? it's fucking crazy

[@colinbuchanan8776]

Killer Mike acapella = stank face engaged

[@c0dead]

theres a video on youtube where it's just a little street cypher with slug, iimmortal tech, aesop, and some other heads. ELP kills it and I am fairly positive it's not written.

[@anonvegeta]

WHAT! i suggest you listen R.A.P music and run the jewels
