And you’re either gonna Google it to find the answer OR you’re gonna say that Em didn’t steal anyone’s style. But in either/both cases, my point is proven. Em didn’t rap like that initially when he was running around Detroit. He stole another artist’s whole entire style… a black artist… but 99% of the “Em is the greatest” crowd don’t know the black rapper’s name. So we got to watch in real time what Em’s career would be like if he was a black man rapping the way he raps. It’s NOT his style that blew him up. If it was, the originator would be just as popular

Just think about who Em battled from the beginning of his career to this point. The dude battled Pink, Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera, Mariah Carey, and Nick Cannon.

Right! Off top em’s flow just captured me so it was easy to say his was best. However Black Thought’s verse was #1 to me because of the substance & depth of his lines. Em’s was still fire though🔥🔥they all killed it.

@@emgo-at7398 lol telling someone to grow up while favouring Ems verse about raping,mauling a chihuahua, and adding another inch to his dick. Lol just stop man you're embarassing yourself now

Still revisiting this cypher. All killed it, there’s no losers here, just greatness

I’ve seen this over thousands of times and it still doesn’t get old

Three rappers touched the top of the map with this one right here.

So iconic. 3 Mic monsters in one cypher. Also all 3 are some of my all time favorite Emcees. All different styles, flows, lyricism, and content, but compliment each other perfectly. Imagine them on one track? One can always dream. Damn I love Mos Def. Gonna go put on The Ecstatic; haven’t listened to in a minute...

I LOVE all of them bobbing their heads to the other verses. This is like the spirit of wanting to be good at rap in physical form. Everybody brought their A game on this, and everybody did it so well that there's not even actually a winner or best or anything. These are three guys that are so good that they've carved something unique out of hip-hop and are just expressing it here.

This Freestyle is beyond underrated

1:02 Rising up outta the flames like a phoenix 🔥🔥🔥🔥

3 of the best MCs the game has to offer

Art. Dudes were all supportive and genuinely listing and not just waiting their turn. Skillz recognize skillz.

I'm from Brooklyn... Mos repped this borough so hard in his verse! Any of ya'll from Brooklyn... Listen to that shit again!🔥

Black Thought is fucking amazing

All three emcees rode this beat like thoroughbreds. To put it simply, they murdered this cypha.

Hands down one of the best cyphers of all time.

It's my first time I see Black Thought without his hat. I thought he is Royce for a moment. Thank you uploader. Thank you.

Black thought on 🔥

Stevie Knight has to react to this one as well, it’s so damn good.
