Freestyle 101 Chali 2na Jurassic 5

[@ethanielclyne5810]

This guy has the best voice in hip hop

[@Gorpgoop]

broo listen to darc mind. very similar voice and vibes

[@fetamean]

Just saw Chali 2na play a show last night. Not only was it dope, but afterward, he just came off the stage and talked to everyone. So dope. I asked him, "Who's your biggest inspirations?" and he told me he combined the kind of Melly Mel & Rakim kind of flow to become what he is. Super intriguing.

[@joannelewis9699]

you actually saw khadafi from the outlaws! You actually saw 2pac and the outlawz featuring biggie smalls

[@mcdtothehdanielhafke4788]

That's dope awesome and also nice to Read

[@hallerbakk]

Best rapper ever. His rhyme schemes are so complex! He obviously switches to written after the first 40 or so seconds, but its all good. Always smooth and refreshing!

[@danieljenkins5680]

This guy needs to start narrating stuff

[@jjamontan]

That's what he is doing!

[@SurgeCess]

He is surpassed only by James Earl Jones

[@Mycustomhotwheels]

Move over Morgan Freeman!

[@CamboyGDubbz]

chali opened for del at ottawa bluesfest, best hip hop set ive ever seen!

[@wyrwulf69]

freestyles are already structured in your head.its something you memorize.you change up subject matter to suit the situation..at least thats how most battle rappers do it..immortal technique,gift of gab,E 40,eminem,LL,Jay z,Nas....

[@erikbrodin2198]

I agree. People under sell the whole premise, but freestyle lyricism, like freestyle musical improvisation, is borne from repetition within an individual context. There's a better way to express that, but I'm an idiot with words. Musical improvisation is all the same, whether with linguistic material or other sonic material of audible/aural significance. You can't practice "riffs" or "licks" to then use at your discretion, and expect to use these haphazardly as an afterthought, all while fully expecting any sort of favorable results. Rather, you really should seek to be fluid in the entire ouvre, so to say, the vernacular, the idiom at hand in that moment, to be able to freestyle, improvise, to lend a helping hand, to pull up, to fully represent, to be about it, to, hur ska man säga, to, what is it that they say, that one thing, to learn how to express oneself in a complete manner. And beyond. It's natural communication. There shouldn't be any reason to philosophically segregate. This is natural, to use sound to communicate. Happens that video evidence commensurate, I can't help but to your familiar post resonate. Could have left out a bit, in order to truncate but too fried, lazey and rather blaze treez, think on a better place for me.

[@wyeko01]

Awesome freestyle and what's most important, he is such a good down to earth person.

[@vampolka]

You know you're amazing when you reference Star Wars when you freestyle.

[@hellmonster666]

ya know j5 is a group of the most well spoken rappers i've ever had the pleasure of seeing and they're music is osm. especially fond of the freestyle with tom greene

[@MikeOnBassGuitar]

His machine-gun like syllables are mind blowing, Chali is my favourite rapper by far.

[@RukussMC]

chali 2na has one of the most unique and chill flows. J5!!!!!

[@adolfoangeles7545]

after 1:39 he just tore it up

[@Blaowzir]

yeah he was warming up before, but then nailed it and ripped it apart

[@lamdahalbe]

He. Is. The. Fucking. God. Of. Flow. I'm serious...he's just a fucking god.

[@kingeazywright]

Murdered

[@taogoat27]

because he stopped freestyling at that point

[@eatingmoss]

Haha I just gotta note the host's names in this video's description. Which one is not like the other? Phraze, Task, Chaos and... Daniel. PS: Chali 2na slayed that mystical piano beat. I LOVE that beat and that freestyle.

[@elichilton7031]

To listen to him flow to spittin' truth was dope.

[@bennsimmons8403]

2na always good in my book...sounding like a father...skoolin fools.

[@TH3USUALSUSPECT]

fuckkkkkkk maaaaaasssive ammounts of lyricism and flow, dammit this guy definitely comes close to pun. Love J5 and love Chali2na the type of music you don't get tired of listening to.

[@YUKMOUTH559]

man to he heard myka 9 battle that's ill chali2na one of the greats

[@MrZombeezie]

His story is literally the same as Gift of Gab's. He got clowned by a neighborhood emcee and went home and wrote some shit to get back at him. Good shit. Cool to hear about Myka9.

[@tecknowledjee6933]

Blackilicious!!!

[@TheMisterD00D]

Waaay cool to hear the Myka9 story. I *knew* it had to be Myka he was leadin into

[@ShadowDaemon1]

I agree with some posts that it does seem set up at about 1:40 where he suddenly gets raw but it was still good. I think it was still freestyle then but i could be wrong. Still love the freestyle, artist, and beat. Respect

[@caps1in1ya1ass1]

I always loved Chali 2na, he was my favorite of J5. Holy shit, he ripped that.

[@aplisjjda-rapper3275]

[@keithrose4227]

simply amazing

[@soloist867]

one of the best freestyles ever

[@bigtflanagan]

@jonarosen think its like anything else in that he was trying to get a feel for it and warm up a bit at the start. you can see the wheels turnin in his head as he's listening to it in the beginning.

[@daltanun]

Chali tunas flow is so dope, he makes j 5 so unique

[@C8Direct]

I check this video once a week until someone can provide the background info on who created this dope ass beat.

[@welarge]

big ups for actually coming off the top...

I love the beat he rhymes over

[@djmactone]

love the myka 9 story.

[@WildfireWiffler44]

Why did I have a feeling that the guy Chali 2na was talking about that he saw battle was Myka 9....why did I have that feeling? LMFAO

[@icecubedabest]

his voice is the shit!! sounds so perfect

[@metheme7893]

Voice is sick.... Flow is slaughter....

[@VIHARIKSU]

this always makes me feel better

[@bigfatdick5000]

Damn he kills it!!!!! Chali 2na

[@LilChnkySkrtn]

how has this not got more likes?

damn his freestyle snowballed...too badass

[@icecubedabest]

best freestylin' right here!!

[@SevenMindGames]

blows your mind away :) gg chali

[@dacypher22]

Actually a freestyle. So far of all of the Freestyle 101's, Chali 2na and Del the Funky Homosapien are the only 2 I have seen that actually did it off the top of the head.

[@taogoat27]

I think he stopped freestyling at 1:39 and started spitting rhymes he previously knew. I think PEACE & Myka 9's Freestyle 101 were pure off the dome.

[@6Wul0Won]

I swear Charli 2na has one of the best voices ever.

[@Merkaba4203]

whooooooo! Those bars about toys under the christmas tree.... godDAMN

[@Zendinothegr8]

@grogann hell yeah 2na fish is a beast!
