And as for the beginning of it, is this a trivia show or do you want to hear my bars? Jeez. Sway gets love because he shows love and respects the artist. Sway got emotional. I'm pretty certain a lot of us felt emotional during this freestyle and it was amplified by the team's support of this VERY good emcee. This was AWESOME to watch from start to finish.
