That iOS line was actually a triple entendre. The third part being his name “that iOS to win” or rather “I Oswin”. He likes to play on his name a lot from what I’ve noticed, and that was a slick way to do it.

12 min freestyle to a 1 hour breakdown...that says a lot. Much love from Pakistan

I had to come back and watch this again. It makes me happy to see true hip hop connoisseurs enjoy the most underrated/under appreciated artist to grace the mic.

I really appreciate y’all taking on these lesser known artists with such amazing talent. I can’t even count the number of artists I have instantly downloaded their discography as a direct result to your reactions. Keep on doing your thing guys because y’all are really making a difference in the hip hop community!

You guys are the BEST at what you do. So glad I found your channel!!! And I appreciate you !!!!

As a white 40-something Scotsman with a Soundgarden album title as my online IDs, I'll say this- I appreciate anyone in music who shows excellence in what they do, especially if they're getting some needs-to-be-heard messages out there.... & this is a truly special thing. o_O I thought Locksmith bagged it early for freestyle of 2019 on Kay Slay in January, but he's got some competition frfr. Good to see it's not just Lock with this kind of virtuosity-with-substance. :)

That breakdown gave so much more appreciation for the great artist he is to me someone who isnt into hiphop that much. I could really feel the power and inspiration from it. Thanks.

This man is so good, I feel like he would best suited on a good laid back kind of beat , something chill on a piano to let you think and take it all in.

yeah would like to see him mix it up with the slow and fast pace a bit like for example eminem. Let his words hang a bit. I mean some of his lyrics are so powerful that they deserve some air to breed so the meaning in the words stick out more. But i'm a casual as far as hip hop goes so it's probably harder for me to digest all the nuance here then others.

“We took those chains and pedaled in pure wheels to survive in a bar that you said that we can’t handle” That was one of the craziest bars I have ever heard!

The whole hour was amazing content and no need to apologize for the long pauses that’s what we watch for! Truly thank you guys for giving some shine to artists like Oswin. We really do need authentic artist like him to push the genre forward!

I've been waiting for you guys to drop this shit for a while now. This got me hyped like End Game had Reddit, but this is END GAME. Some personal feedback: Thank you guys for doing what you're doing. You've been instrumental in some of the change that's happened in my life. I lean heavy on your Rap/Hip-hop reactions to help me catch up in this game I've been missing out on for most of my life. And as a side note, no need to apologize for talking. From reading the majority of other comments, I think the consensus is that we love hearing your thoughts and break-downs. That's why we're here (and to see you lose your shit and bang your knees). But for real, a one hour video from you guys is never a bad thing, it's always a treat. Keep on killing it!! We'll be here to back you guys up.

I've been waiting for this. I don't think I ever clicked to see a video so quick. Oswin Benjamin is an absolute problem 🔥🔥🔥

Amazing break down guys much respect to what you two do for the culture and it's crazy how much the channel has grown since I started following.... Road to 1m

This man is just on a completely different level with his pen. It’s seriously a beautiful thing to witness. The time and dedication he must put in to have this intricate of lyricism... wow.

Yo Benjamin got busy on this! and I'm liking this long format fellas. These are some important was to be studied and I appreciate you taking the time to do so.

Even as a metalhead i'm catching bars like never before thanks to amazing breakdowns like this training my ear

Ok, this is what I've been wanting for and didn't know it. I haven't had a lot to grab my lyrical rap ear in a while. Just a few minutes in and I'm reminded of Hieroglyphics. That's a compliment. Love it.

Man I started this. Looked at the time. Realized I better go watch the freestyle first. Came back and watched y'all and I still know I missed stuff. This guy is the truth

I don't usually hit the thumbs up but I did for this one. You guys should really consider doing longer form/podcast types of deep dives and breakdowns of artists like this. I wouldn't have cared if this was 4 hours long I would listen to you guys breakdown each line without you guys feeling the need to apologize for the length of the video. You guys are educators of rhythm and (mostly)poetry and have the ear and the skill to really read between the lines and make sense of what could've just been another Sway in the morning freestyle.

This is amazing!!! Thank you 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 as always! Been a fan for so long, appreciate the analysis. Peep Freddie Gibbs - Cataracts Rexx Life Raj - Time

Stogie T Sway freestyle.

" I gotta stop cussing so DAMN much" 😂😂😭

Speechless. Poetry and passion. Oswin one of the GOATs

YO that whole piece was legit! Just so much gas from start to finish it's hard to even absorb it all at once. Serious business though, just after the 34:00 mark, right when that Pete Rock beat comes in... that was a very special moment. I have got to give this a solid 9 on a scale of 1 to Black Thought. Good Lord, that was FIRE! Thanks for breaking it down for us fellas.

Definitely worth an hour plus! Excellent reaction/breakdown. Bru definitely a🐐! 🦁 scheme was 🔥🔥. Now can i get that Juice by Tobe Nwigwe feat Paul Wall.🤷🏾‍♂️

Ahhhh, finally. I’ve been waiting since the release of the freestyle for this.

902K+ subscribers, you guys grew big. Re watched the lil dicky freestyle on sway & found my comment about you guys reminding me of the key and peel sketch “nooice”. You liked my comment and replied haha

Oh yeah oooohhhhhh yeaahhhhh this has been way too long overdue!!!!! Respect to y’all, this shit is fireeee!!!!

Around the 28 minute y’all talked about the waves but missed that that also includes tidal. A tidal wave 🌊 is a huge wave caused by gravitational interactions. So Os says tidal is streaming us dry, lack of or no compensation, but I’ll rock with it until the wave (tidal wave) subsides. Os is INSANE!!!!!!
