Of fuckin course he is, but he got set up back in the day n got caught up in some beef w LL Cool J n his whole career was burned out. So he dont get worldwide recognition like that. If you listen to their diss tracks Canibus buried Cool J but cuz he wasnt as well known everybody heard n sided w Cool Js shit. The industry is one sided. Bis shouldve had way more recognition.
Em is better than Canibus. Canibus is still one of my favorite lyricists but he got weird with his rhymes and beats towards his latest albums. Em been fire since he came out. But those early Canibus freestyles….. Str8 🔥
@@Showtime2021 i think Em burned bis when they were beefing, but bar for bar Canibus is infinite, not only with the rhymes but also the subjects of the rhymes, dude has a extensive knowledge of many things and he uses that to his advantage to make crazy ass bars, my homeboy swears that Canibus' Rip The Jacket Album helped him memorize shit for his physics class LMAO
The majority of the rap artists who beefed with Eminem were all whack (Ja Rule, Benzino, ICP, Fred Durst, Nick Cannon, etc.) but not Canibus! He's a monster, even Big Pun was really impressed of his lyrical skills!
Canibus is and especially was so ill and so much better than anybody man I swear. At the end, Canibus's rhymes were off the top. I like that shout out to Pacman that he put in there....."It's like Pacman, dont stop/ until I hear my voice bangin up and down the block in a Magnavox with a hundred watts/ creatin rippless in the water like aquanauts breathin through they oxygen box"......dope.
He truly didn’t but the industry backed L.L. So it backfired on Canibus badly and he got black balled. Sucks because he called him on his pussy shit. I don’t hate L.L. But Canibus was the one who got wronged and thats when i took his side he was the underdog. Up until i learned about the beef i thought he was just some raspy rapper everyone said was one of the best and i just didn’t see it. Now he’s becoming my favorite lol.
Its crazy hearing canibus say "uh" during pakmans first verse it shows his appreciation for other mc's. Canibus killed this shit though and its a TRUE off the top freestyle
Failure is real though. Why shy away from it? I thought the same at first but I don't take away from him now. It's easier to judge the failure than to understand the failure.
UNTOUCHABLE ! Can-I-Bus Is Top 3 DOA, To Me He Deserve To Be In Everybody Top 5, I Just Put Rakim Above Him Because He Is The Source And The Father Of Lyricism, So It Is A Question Of Respect And Paying Dues When I's Due, Gotta Respect The Foundation But Let's Be Honest: Canibus Is So Incredible Lyricaly That Even The Nastiests Mc's Can't Compared With Him, Simply MindBlowing, A True Genius.
canibus was one of the best traditional hip hop battle rap lyricist to ever grace hip hop at one time, when he came on the scene he was a MONSTER, rapping with kurupt, daz, ll cool j, wu tang, etc. literally within months of his appearance on the scene, but some say he let go so early with such incredible talent that he could never live up to his rep ever again
every time i listen to this i can barely get through it because my head explodes. you can't find a written rhyme this good if you look the rest of your life.
Naw dude, u gotta keep relistening till you figure this shit out. It's a shame, canibus-central.com used to have perfect layout, lyrics and mp3s attached
Canibus is going at eminem and his whole crew in his verse if people didn't know the people that say eminem won didn't listen to anything from canibus in this beef
They took shots but they never beefed directly or had diss tracks on one another. If Canibus just took Ems word for it that he didn’t write L.L’s diss they probably would have been on a track together. Most likely on Ems album with bis featured.
one of the most amazing things i ever heard was the way Bis almost lost his momentum "its like pakman don't stop" 😂, free's a couple bars, then finds a new verse mid-stride and its completely insane and not anything you will find on his albums
Who caught the subliminal bars to Eminem. 3:19-4:10 is directed at Eminem. The last bar "sentenced to life on on rykers Island for terrible freestyling" is referencing the Eminem and Proof freestyle on the same radio show (Tim Westwood) a few months prior where they dissed Canibus.
This is bananas! Bis teared that shit up! How the fuck you put words together like that off the top of the dome? I heard when he messed up a bit...you could hear he was thinking...but homie brought it right back. LOL at people who say Weezy, or even Em could shame this nigga! They out their fuckin minds!
****EPIC**** Notion that im dedicated is an understament, my rhymes are outa this world like the russian space station. Sneak attack rappers grab em and slash em, chop they head off with claws sharper than Velociraptors Hunt em like Jurrasic Park actors but spared Samuel L. Jackson's life cause he was the only black one!!!!!!!!!!!! BEASTTTTTTT
listening to this shit again right now, he fucked up that Dizaster battle on purpose. No way that shit weas real, he got too many lyrics to go out like that. I even think that sling thing was fake, he planned it with that notebook, it's pretty obvious now that I think about it. Backfired on him though smh.

Genius HipHop I have always loved that line!
In the 90s on hot 97 just nightly. It was b4 charades dominated the screens
Canibus always fills the void when searching for real hip-hop. Thank you for every bar!!!
If an alien came to Earth and asks what is hip hop, I'd play this
The GOAT of free styling, hands down!
no
Devon Couch yes
arguably Big L

Well that is because only 25 percent of the people are truly knowing what is great.

Who else listens to this all the time, just wishing Bis would come back?
you got your wish
Canibus one of the best lyricist in Hip Hop for being loyal to it.
Bis shit is timeless as fuck. Noone goes this hard and never will
Matt Garcia - 💯
Canibus is the bomb, nobody can take him on he will eliminate them all.
Nathalie Elesia Cough* dizaster cough*
Yeah! I think there both good to be honest with you.
Nathalie Elesia what happened was that he wasn't prepared for diz...if he would've been prepared Dizaster he would've squashed him
Ahaha chiraq savages would split his body open
Can I Bus - a lot of rappers are ahead of their time, but when it comes to rhymes like mine the word time doesn't apply!
I don't care what happened in that battle 1 L can't erase a lifetime of dubs!
Hell naw it can't .... But it was painful to watch tho.... That " it feels like I'm putting my own dog to sleep " line fucked me up....

That was insane how he quickly spat that off the top. Pacman's reaction is brilliant as he clearly wasn't expecting it and it sounded so dope
I dare a “ Mumble” rapper to step up and freestyle like this. Don’t worry I’ll wait.
Don't care what nobody say he didnt loose against L.L
He truly didn’t but the industry backed L.L. So it backfired on Canibus badly and he got black balled. Sucks because he called him on his pussy shit. I don’t hate L.L.

Neither he did against Em
He might've messed up that live battle but he was never defeated on wax. He's just too good for the mainstream.
An undefeated, unbelievable lyrical giant! 🔥🔥
Canibus is a top three lyricist. This might be his best.
Nobody can rhyme this fluid, nobody ever did what i'm doing, nobody ever spit what i'm spewing- simple but good
This is one of if not the best freestyle of all-time 💯 flow/word play on this track is sick.
Canibus ill as they come or ever came.
THIS...is "lyrical fitness"
Lol this guy is the spirit of Hip Hop
Always been a big fan of canibus. This rhyme is one of the best rhymes I ever heard in my life. Call Jesus to come battle this nigga.
Its crazy hearing canibus say "uh" during pakmans first verse it shows his appreciation for other mc's. Canibus killed this shit though and its a TRUE off the top freestyle
Canibus is just too nasty.
I can’t not listen to jayz or em after listening to this guy
Cannabis should've never battled diz , he was already legendary & nothing left to prove
Everybody Lose NOTHING TO BE SHAMED ABOUT
Mesus he still is a legend personally he didn’t lose
Marv Duce his first verse against disaster was very good..
@@itsolivier he got DESTROYED
Failure is real though. Why shy away from it? I thought the same at first but I don't take away from him now. It's easier to judge the failure than to understand the failure.
WOOOOOOO!!!!
I don't think my laptop can handle this particular level of lyricism... it's about to crash!
bis easily the GOAT do not ever compaer ANYONE to him
Facts all day!
the nastiest lyrics in the rap game rhymes on a level above all rappers..this man has a vocabulary no rapper can touch
DAMNIT MAN!!? This fool Canibus was the ILLEST!!!!!! Sheesh!!!

Canibus is the illest!
Canibus NEEDS to come back....he is so ill wit it....NASTY....Ever since Rip The Jacker....FAN
Bis is nuts...wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yo, I need to see the lyrics to Canibus' part, especially that last verse. It maybe one of the greatest verses ever.
Naw dude, u gotta keep relistening till you figure this shit out. It's a shame, canibus-central.com used to have perfect layout, lyrics and mp3s attached
Ive listened to it maybe 100 times already i have it memorized mostly lol
i listen to this daily
Man. Canibus is a different species of animal,
sickkkkkkkk
this is crazy shit, iv listened this so many times now, fully sick.
canibus is a lyrical god. period.
When bis said uh when pac was rappin he sounded like a muscle car on idle.lol
Canibus is the type of dude I bet was leaving hundreds of dudes speechless on the block when they would battle
Canibus is outta this world 🌎
Like the Russian space station.
There will never be ANOTHER canibus that's word
Literally covered in goosebumps. When did this quality of hip-hop go extinct. I need a time machine 😢😢😢
Canibus
CRAAAAAZY!!! LOVE IT!!!
Pacman and Canibus ripped the "Oh No" beat. Canibus second freestyle was ill too. I put both freestyles on mixes a few years ago.
Canibus is going at eminem and his whole crew in his verse if people didn't know the people that say eminem won didn't listen to anything from canibus in this beef
