Slug blows so many rappers out of the water but its not even about who's better than who. His lyrics are ill and i love slug cause he spits his feelins so real
I'll never forget listening to this live with my brother and a few homies. Rolling in the seafoam green 96' Ford Taurus down some country ass dirt road smoking a few blunts. Those were the fucking days.
I thought the same thing. Both are excellent. I dig Slug's voice a little better, seems smoother. It's not at all surprising they copied each other a bit since they regularly went back and forth.
Slug is such an amazing rapper for being 'underground' or just not mainstream. That man has some amazing lyrics and some incredible beats thanks to Ant. Love how real he is and true to his roots. So many props to him.
This is the sickest freestyle I've ever heard, b/c its a straight up fresstyle, 100% off the dome, not that "I'm gonna spit a song, I wrote last month" type stuff, this whole freestyle is completely coherent, it makes sense and......he's thinking of everything on the spot!
Now kids, this is how a REAL FREESTYLE of the top of the head looks like !!! It used to be always like that.. But today's rapers spit written lyrics and say it's a freestyle but really it's not.
Now that Gangster Rap is dead, I feel like this is where rap should be. This shit just feels so real. half of any videos you see of freestyles are memorized. This shit is clearly right off of his intelligent dome.
Exactly. It's all about an artist's character and artistic integrity. If they wish to water down their music when they become big, then so be it, but I know Slug is a bigger man than that. If he ever hit it huge, he wouldn't disappoint any of the fans he had when he was underground. He wouldn't diminish the quality of his music. He'd probably work even harder than ever to provide quality artwork...Slug is that dude...
What's dope about Slug and that whole RS roster is that these dudes came up from just FREESTYLING OFF THE TOP on street corners. Him, Eyedea etc... they built their skills thru off the top freestyling. When you do that for a long time it builds a strong basis for your written work.
fantastic. keeps going and going. who else can do that ..most "freestyles" are written. but this is real off the dome. over and over again! big ups to Sluggo
And i dont want to want to say RIP Mikey, cause he is alive more than ever...He is the same ol Mikey, he spits stupid sick and he teaches people like me every day and its 2013... Love Mikey!!!!! Ok sorry im done for real...Love to evey single one of you!!!!!!!!
Sluggo always tears it, even if he hits a lul the dude can out rhym 95% of any "rappers" out there right now... 8:00 minutes of freestlye!!! Thats some serious skill!!
I love when an artist gets on the radio and ACTUALLY freestyles! Did you see Drake spittin' all that written crap? So called pros get scared on the radio - can't really freestyle - that's why SLUG is freakin' legend! Mad respect.
Lovin hearin him on a chicago station, some good shit on the radio? sounds like a paradox to me. that's the most slug ive ever heard on the radio, he shoulda just kept going
@UncleBlunt LOL sounds like a sage line from 99 rappers... "Bragging about platinum plaques you hold like mcdonalds talkin about how many big macs they sold" Hahaha classic.
It is a real talent to be able to think of words that rhyme together and make a sentance that at least makes sense for 8 minuites straight. But to make those words have a strong, deep, intelligent, meaning and make you think about shit, is almost impossible except for those fortunate few. Slug is one of those.
i watched this for 3 min, left it on,went in the kitchen, went to the kitchen, made a hot pocket, took a piss, wrote a book, did biology homework, knitted a blanket, smoked a blunt, had sex with 3 women, became a doctor, came back, and slug was still freestyling.
I must have taste, that is why I know slug's fairy tales are for nursery rhymes. Maybe we should start a new genre category under Nursery Rhymes. You would be his first follower and fan.
IN this freestyle he said. "Underground or Mainstream, we all on the same team, we all bleed the same blood, PEACE my name is slug." STOP COMPARING ARTISTS. They are all beastly in there own ways.
Slug - One of the most naturally gifted ever to grace the MIC
Slug blows so many rappers out of the water but its not even about who's better than who. His lyrics are ill and i love slug cause he spits his feelins so real
Word
My favorite rapper of all time!
Yeahhh mine too
I'll never forget listening to this live with my brother and a few homies. Rolling in the seafoam green 96' Ford Taurus down some country ass dirt road smoking a few blunts. Those were the fucking days.
hahaha "grab the microphone" he's turning into Eyedea
😟 eyedea was still alive during this.
Eyedea turned into slug*
Nahh^^
They were family basically. Listen to Flicker. Mikey was one of Sean's best friends.
I thought the same thing. Both are excellent. I dig Slug's voice a little better, seems smoother. It's not at all surprising they copied each other a bit since they regularly went back and forth.
5:32 that last beat is the perfect pace (and sound) for slug's flow. so good
Holy shit, you could not be more right, I was skeptical but then it come on and any doubts I had fucking fell apart.
Slug is such an amazing rapper for being 'underground' or just not mainstream. That man has some amazing lyrics and some incredible beats thanks to Ant. Love how real he is and true to his roots. So many props to him.
Big props!!
true freestyle, thats rare and slug's got the mind to override the dj clown!
Rapping without cursing is incredibly hard without ALOT of experience and talent this guy is amazing no doubt about it.
"July to june"-all year
Underground or Mainstream, We all on the Same Team. My Favorite line.
This is the sickest freestyle I've ever heard, b/c its a straight up fresstyle, 100% off the dome, not that "I'm gonna spit a song, I wrote last month" type stuff, this whole freestyle is completely coherent, it makes sense and......he's thinking of everything on the spot!
Now kids, this is how a REAL FREESTYLE of the top of the head looks like !!! It used to be always like that.. But today's rapers spit written lyrics and say it's a freestyle but really it's not.
I really recommend listening to Slug's Youz A Gangster freestyle. another one of these 10min freestyling jobs.
holy shit yeah that was epic
i love all the pauses and what he has to say after
Now that Gangster Rap is dead, I feel like this is where rap should be. This shit just feels so real. half of any videos you see of freestyles are memorized. This shit is clearly right off of his intelligent dome.
saw this in 08/09 and been a fan sinse! had to come back to have a sip of the slug of atmosphere ! still one of the best free styles
this was all off the head.. he went crazy
Slug = Legend
Exactly. It's all about an artist's character and artistic integrity. If they wish to water down their music when they become big, then so be it, but I know Slug is a bigger man than that. If he ever hit it huge, he wouldn't disappoint any of the fans he had when he was underground. He wouldn't diminish the quality of his music. He'd probably work even harder than ever to provide quality artwork...Slug is that dude...
the best part is at 5:30 when he starts rapping again...sick
5:30 slug wasn't feeling the disrespect
What's dope about Slug and that whole RS roster is that these dudes came up from just FREESTYLING OFF THE TOP on street corners. Him, Eyedea etc... they built their skills thru off the top freestyling. When you do that for a long time it builds a strong basis for your written work.
Slug can flow on any beat and has his own view on life..... even if you don't really enjoy his albums, this shows why he gets the respect he does
what kind of dj cuts off a mc in the middle of their flow saying.."i got another beat" WOW..peter parker..u did it again
fantastic. keeps going and going. who else can do that ..most "freestyles" are written. but this is real off the dome. over and over again! big ups to Sluggo
"He's trying to find an angle, I'm trying to find an angel" Damn
My all time favorite MC.
"July to June, but not yet.
it's May still, just wait till.'
glad to see people truly coming off the dome instead of using pre-written lyrics off a blackberry.
And i dont want to want to say RIP Mikey, cause he is alive more than ever...He is the same ol Mikey, he spits stupid sick and he teaches people like me every day and its 2013... Love Mikey!!!!! Ok sorry im done for real...Love to evey single one of you!!!!!!!!
Peter Parker doesn't even know who Slug is
Slug is by far my favorite mc.
Sluggo always tears it, even if he hits a lul the dude can out rhym 95% of any "rappers" out there right now... 8:00 minutes of freestlye!!! Thats some serious skill!!
Most People Freestyle For A Minute. He Kept Going. And If It Were Infinite, He'd Keep Going.
man was in the zone. nobody can touch slug
In. Love. with. This. Man.
I love when an artist gets on the radio and ACTUALLY freestyles! Did you see Drake spittin' all that written crap? So called pros get scared on the radio - can't really freestyle - that's why SLUG is freakin' legend! Mad respect.
Slug is just chill when it comes to freestyle. But this is the best ive heard.
The DJ is blown away by how dope he is!
the boss of the game, always keepin it real, every rhyme out of slugs mouth is an absolute gem
These are some of the sickest freestyles Iv'e heard yet.
Worst DJ Ever. Don't interrupt Slug.
Eh at least he's laying down some decent beats, he could definitely learn to hang back and let the artist do his thing.
Having revisited this I rescind my prior statement. Peter Parker comes off as a punk.
One of the best free styles iv'e heard
Greatest Rapper Alive! Period.
and after the tape stopped rolling slug was giving another beat and during the freestyle the picture of lil wayne behind him spontaneously combusted
I love this because it's a legit off the top of his head.
This... Right here... Is real... Hip hop...
especially live, like i wasnt a big fan of paint it gold but when he performed some of em live i was like, this guys a fucking legend
Lovin hearin him on a chicago station, some good shit on the radio? sounds like a paradox to me. that's the most slug ive ever heard on the radio, he shoulda just kept going
he's got so much swag lol slug's such a positive person he always inspires me
one of the best. all day every day
Slug and Brother Ali both brought up the Easter Bunny in their freestyles at this studio haha
The 2nd beat is - Know The Ledge (Juice) - Eric B & Rakim
The 3rd beat is - Turn It Out - The Beatnuts
Goat!!!
probably the greatest freestyle I've ever heard
I know that was a bit ago, but I still listen to it once in a while cause that is ill free flow!
that freestyle was as dope as it gets!
slug can flo like none other!
"Half the time it doesn't make sense, as long as the haters get tense." EPIC
...Takes me Back when there was B96 ... good music.
Slugggggggggggggggg
I've watched a lot of free style vids and I've got to say this is the first I can see that is legitimately so.
I wish from the 5 minute mark to the end was a song! So sick.
Slug is so orginal , he manages to spit about real shit and stay real to where he comes from . he keeps it real .
One of the sickest freestyle(+flow) everrrr!!! School those fools Sluggo!
I love the look on the djs face like "is he still going!?"
atmosphere is seriously so, idk, unexplainably sick, and amazing with words.
JoshFant Slug said "you can push a button and shut me up whenever you feel it's time"
Grab this microphone...grab this microphone...grab this microphone..etc. Love you Slug.
@UncleBlunt LOL sounds like a sage line from 99 rappers... "Bragging about platinum plaques you hold like mcdonalds talkin about how many big macs they sold" Hahaha classic.
Here on another Friday ☝️
Welcome home
So smooth.
effortless
the only thing missing here is Eyedea. Him and slug are THE BEST freestylers ever. The way they fed off each other was so sick.
It is a real talent to be able to think of words that rhyme together and make a sentance that at least makes sense for 8 minuites straight. But to make those words have a strong, deep, intelligent, meaning and make you think about shit, is almost impossible except for those fortunate few. Slug is one of those.
He's just NONSTOP!!! o.o DAMN!
Atmos FEAR IT. soooo sick! Love slug
Real talent
Man, that first beat is tasty as fuck
THE BEST flow on the tube..
how do 3 people not like this??
I cant believe I missed this when I was living in MN
slug is a genius... show me any other rapper at all that can freestyle with this flow for 8 minutes straight
I would totally adopt a child from Father Slug's House of Young MC's.
Immense flow!
His flow is untouchable
i wanna go to Slug house n just chill!!!
slug killed it
Slug is a beast
I like Little Wayne and Atmosphere.
Slug is a Dope Emcee.
Whoaaa, slug brought it this freestyle!
he's got so much swag lol
Greatest lyricist ever.
Followed by Mos, Talib, KRS-One, Andre 3k, Big L.
ive seen westwood and rosenburg but never heard of peter parker til now...
i watched this for 3 min, left it on,went in the kitchen, went to the kitchen, made a hot pocket, took a piss, wrote a book, did biology homework, knitted a blanket, smoked a blunt, had sex with 3 women, became a doctor, came back, and slug was still freestyling.
It's "say shh" but it's included as a bonus track at the end of "Always Coming Back Home to You" off the album "Seven's Travels"
the dj was soooooo rad bro. hahaha
I must have taste, that is why I know slug's fairy tales are for nursery rhymes. Maybe we should start a new genre category under Nursery Rhymes. You would be his first follower and fan.
Killed it
Slug kicks it soo smooth. Puttin it down for the MidWest.
DAMN SLUG CAN FUCKING FREESTYLE!!!
IN this freestyle he said. "Underground or Mainstream, we all on the same team, we all bleed the same blood, PEACE my name is slug."
STOP COMPARING ARTISTS. They are all beastly in there own ways.
