Also worth mentioning - when he says “Dartmouth” and “Yale” he follows it up by saying “that ship sailed”. Yale and Dartmouth are the top 2 university sailing teams in the world. Cyhi is crazy
They missed that too. Also at beginning "just left a Russian road,with a whole lot Hilary(Clinton/White girl(dope),got connection in Mexico, referring to Russian Scandal and Mexican borders 🔥
“I got the world in my hands, im a globe trotter, I’m on Lufthansa with a Luke dancer” …. Also the play on having the traveling because Lufthansa is a premium airline. That’s just nuts!
As someone who has listened to Cyhi since middle school, got an english major in college, and is about to graduate law school, this man is without a doubt onr of the greatest writers to ever put a pen to a pad. Not just in rap, but in poetry. Give this man the whole bouquet, forget flowers.
Holy shit. I met this dude where I used to work. I used to do assistant engineer at this studio in Decatur(ATL) He was one of the writers for this young dude that was trying to make a banger I wish I could remember the young guys name - but I got the impression that he had money - and hired “CyHi” and another writer/producer to try and help him make a hit. I wish I wouldn’t have burned that bridge at that studio. Got to work with some of the people who inspired me the most. But I didn’t realize. cy was like famous and doing his own thing. I figured he was just a writer What’s his writer name? I’d love to know who else he wrote for. (Edit: I commented before watching the whole video. I see that he brings up being a ghost writer. Thats what’s up tho now i at least know I’m not tripping and that it is the same dude)
That silent and listen bar is even deeper than what we noticed initially .........Misspelled means incorrectly spelled ....and a spell is an incantation ..........so the difference between the 2 is a faulty incantation .......BOOM!!!!!!!
Just to let you guys know he was never signed to G.O.O.D Music but he did have a little deal situation with Akon, and if you remember Akon's label was convict music. I think he was referring to that in the convict line. The only person that could stand next to Cyhi with the puchlines is the late Fred the Godson RIP.
Aaaand….that Jeezy beat….Jeezy said “I’m emotional, I hug the block…” this was one of the BEST leakers EVER! Being an unofficial AtLien, Cyhi been Top 5 for me….#KetchupMustard
Damn, Cyhi is so intentional with his penmanship. I thought I heard ghost biters rather than ghost spiders. Man, I appreciate the level of analysis these guys get into. Keep it coming please brothers. Love from South Africa.
I still think Kxng Crooked had the hardest silent/listen flip in his weeklys series in 2019.. "Like the word talk you get the L quiet I don’t wanna hear shit when I’m spittin' Just remember the same letters that spell listen spell silent"
Ab-soul on the prhyme song "dat sound good" is my favorite line: Toyin with the squad, that's how you get sent to God, dog you know it's backwards to go against God, dog
The effortless double and triple entandres flow switches… He really one of the rappers that could go on URL or any battle league an not sound like a mainstream rapper trying to battle rap
The “con artist” line is a reference to him being signed to Akon early on in his career. He was never signed to Kanye or Good Music. Y’all are great tho love the reactions.
I heard Sideways on a 2k game, I’m thinking it was 2k12 or 13 but my friends and I stopped playing and looked him up immediately. Cyhi is a lyrical genius.
“My patna (Big Meech) still doing time, imagine me stealing watches (Lil Meech)” Lil Meech recently got accused of “stealing watches” by a jeweler who said he didn’t pay them. 🔥🔥🔥
Btw, CyHi was talking that Godbody talk with “4:30,” he was using supreme mathematics. 4: culture freedom, 3: understanding, 0: cipher. That’s why he’s “woke.” Dope entendre. Fire bar
I didn’t make it through all of the comments but I thinks it’s worthy to mention that Mossberg is a company that makes shotguns. (In reference to riding shotgun in the front seat) Just another example of Cyhi’s lyrical genius.
He was A Kon artist cause he was signed to Konvict music, the A Kan artist when he moved to GOOD music then a con artist just from scheming. YOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Kon Artist line refers to when he was signed by Akon Konvict Music but could also be double entendre to Kan Artist Kanye when he was signed to Good Music
Also worth mentioning - when he says “Dartmouth” and “Yale” he follows it up by saying “that ship sailed”. Yale and Dartmouth are the top 2 university sailing teams in the world. Cyhi is crazy
They missed that too. Also at beginning "just left a Russian road,with a whole lot Hilary(Clinton/White girl(dope),got connection in Mexico, referring to Russian Scandal and Mexican borders 🔥
Dartmouth is a ship port in UK (edit: too)
I would normally say that’s a reach, but this shit so jammed packed with wordplay and entendres that it’s gotta be intentional.
@@fauxpression It's also an ivy league university in Hanover, New Hampshire that has an elite sailing team
@@fauxpression dart mouth and Yale are the top sailing schools in the US

Facts
No doubt. Still thinking about the bars from Basquiat and the opening lyrics in Napoleon... " I see art, like I know the custodian...
This freestyle is God level. Cyhi is an all time great lyricist.
It’s crazy because Cyhi was also signed to Akon “used to be a con-artist”
Wow Kan Kon Con Artist
He mean with the spit 🔥🎤
Dammit!
Yep, that’s exactly what he meant.
God damn this man is barred tf up. Levels to this shit and he on mount Everest with it.
Plus..."I never picked a pocket"....bc he was a free agent managed by bu
Y'all explain lyrics better than any reactor I've heard.
Then and vibevilla are the best for sure
They the best. Shaq just yell and nothing else
Script work
No Bars Off pretty good as well! 💯
Ernest the Third is the best guy imo
Hands down the best bar I ever heard: “But I learned that SILENT AND LISTEN, is the same word that's misspelled!!!” 🤔.....Well Damn!!!!🤯
Sheesh 🔥 🔥 🔥
You have to be silent to listen as well
That’s *FIRE*
that darthmouth and yale wordplay is the greatest I have ever heard from a rapper.
“Kept it 100 when I spoke I belong in a low rider” slick ass bar
People miss the “Fizdale” line. He used to coach the Knicks.
I’m glad somebody caught that line lol
Knicks (nicks) sell, David Fizdale. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Killer Mike got his name by rapping at the lunch table...this boy don't miss...
Holy shit. I met this dude where I used to work.
I used to do assistant engineer at this studio in Decatur(ATL)
He was one of the writers for this young dude that was trying to make a banger

What’s his writer name? I’d love to know who else he wrote for.
(Edit: I commented before watching the whole video. I see that he brings up being a ghost writer. Thats what’s up tho now i at least know I’m not tripping and that it is the same dude)
Cyhi and daylyte will always have bars that go over most people's heads. Always enjoy their freestyles
Don’t forget the true GOAT King Los
@@BronzDano so cyhi and daylyt are FAKE goats? lol
@@professorXcross who said that? I just said don’t forget Los. But sure, if that’s what you wanna read into it 🤷🏽♂️
@@BronzDanoLos hit or miss.
That silent and listen bar is even deeper than what we noticed initially .........Misspelled means incorrectly spelled ....and a spell is an incantation ..........so the difference between the 2 is a faulty incantation .......BOOM!!!!!!!
Travis Scott's Astroworld was also a huge writing credit on Cyhi's resume because he wrote on at least 5+ songs on it including "Sicko Mode"
WoW!!!
“This shit way too formal, you know I don’t follow suit!”

“When it’s your time you can’t shoot Cancer”….. That’s a BAR!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
So many people didn't get that!
@@felixmartin9156 Yes Sirrrr!!! One of the best bars of the freestyle. Leaves people with something to think about.
Very happy to see y'all doing this. Cyhi is dope!
Cyhi is the king of double entendres. I'm still thinking about some of his bars " ... for the power, n*ggas will Ghost you with a Tommie gun..."
Aaaand….that Jeezy beat….Jeezy said “I’m emotional, I hug the block…” this was one of the BEST leakers EVER! Being an unofficial AtLien, Cyhi been Top 5 for me….#KetchupMustard
His previous leaker freestyle is also top tier!🔥
Major facts
Damn, Cyhi is so intentional with his penmanship. I thought I heard ghost biters rather than ghost spiders. Man, I appreciate the level of analysis these guys get into. Keep it coming please brothers. Love from South Africa.
ninjas shooting in the air ,never had a dogfight,airforce bars.
Life ain’t fair and neither is the carnival. Crazy bar
This is god flow, and the real definition of an MC. He controlled the room and did it with hella finesse.
Everything from the lyricism to performance was beastly! Had that godly aura.
Cyhi is fire and is the writer of some of Kanye’s recent top bars. It’s beautiful to see him just killing it
Harry Mack was just on Sway doing an Overtime freestyle, best I've ever heard from him.
stop wit tha Harry Mack smoofyness
Stop shouting out the greatest off the top of all time? You’re funny. Sounds like you need more HMack!
@@MrBlaineAM white
Finally , I was getting frustrated you guys didn’t do it sooner
CyHi is amazing with the pen. One of my favorites spitters and his mixtape discography is straight heat 🔥
“I don’t wanna hear shit when I’m spittin just remember the same letters that spell listen spell silent” - Kxng Crooked
Harry Mack was just on Sway's Overtime! Pretty dope.
insane
I’ve been waiting on this one. This and Conway gotta be the best two freestyles this year
All I’m say he didn’t miss 🙉🙉 flow give you chills 🙌🏾🙌🏾 shotgun riding shotgun literally 🔥🔥 He left earth with this freestyle 🌍
🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
When he says keeping a cig/sig on me - literal smoke from a cigarette or smoke from a sig sauer pistol. I know that flew by some people’s head
I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS REACTION!!!!
Not only was he signed to “kan” ye, but was first signed to a”kon” which is who i thought of with the “con artist” line. Cyhi’s pen is different 🔥🔥
He was also referring to making it home safely avoiding the "alt right". Genius!
That richard pryor line was god level
Yes " broke Pryor" bc they say broke Pryor was him at his best. And then Broke Prior.....Crazy
I still think Kxng Crooked had the hardest silent/listen flip in his weeklys series in 2019..
"Like the word talk you get the L quiet
I don’t wanna hear shit when I’m spittin'
Just remember the same letters that spell listen spell silent"
Ab-soul on the prhyme song "dat sound good" is my favorite line:
Toyin with the squad, that's how you get sent to God, dog you know it's backwards to go against God, dog
The effortless double and triple entandres flow switches… He really one of the rappers that could go on URL or any battle league an not sound like a mainstream rapper trying to battle rap
He said he'll go to URL but he putting up the bag and it gotta match lol
More Cyhi in the future please!
The “con artist” line is a reference to him being signed to Akon early on in his career. He was never signed to Kanye or Good Music. Y’all are great tho love the reactions.
The Con - Artist bar was about being signed to Akon brother so he was signed to “ Konvict Music”
He also says cop it/Coptic (another type of Christianity) right before he drops the catholic bar
I love the dog fight line. He must have just watched Maverick
Been a fan of cyhi since i downloaded that royal flush mixtape when it first came out
Wow you just brought back major memories haha
Same here dude!
I heard Sideways on a 2k game, I’m thinking it was 2k12 or 13 but my friends and I stopped playing and looked him up immediately.
Cyhi is a lyrical genius.
Oh I been waiting for this one!
Cyhi is THE entendre killa....PERIOD! He's been in my top 5 easy for years.....such a damn wordsmith!...💯🏆💯
Yesss! Been waiting for this one. I knew for 100% that this is something you are going to react🔥
Bruh never disappointed in these types of environments
The all rights bar is also how you find out if someone is tailing you. Doubles and triples everywhere sheesh
Been waiting on this reaction. 👏🏾👏🏾🔥
One of the best to ever do it 🔥🔥
“Con”-artist might be for kan-ye but mostly a AKON reference. He was first signed as an artist on his label Kovict music. Very thoughtful wordplay!
Thank you guys for doing this one
The “con artist” line is coz he was signed to Akon. On konvict music. So he was “Akon artist “ shit was too deep
Kon Kan Con Artist 🔥🎤
You guys are undefeated when it comes to bars. Yall catch everything 😂
Best freestyle I have heard
Benn waiting for you guys to do this one!👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Of course i was waiting on this!!!
It’s so dope to still you you guys cooking up dope content! You can see the growth in yalls channel! Love and light from NC 🙏
I also think the bar with the nonprofit could be also a play on the Catholicism because of the words “nun” and “prophet”
i just walked off on the silent and listen part it was too cold and simple
Them Knick Sales David Fisdale 😂😮
There is a reason why these guys have a million subs the way you dicect these barz is just 💯 I'm sold. I'm part of the subs now
Need that nick grant la leakers tho
Bout time let’s goooo from Chicago
Love you guys bro!
“My patna (Big Meech) still doing time, imagine me stealing watches (Lil Meech)” Lil Meech recently got accused of “stealing watches” by a jeweler who said he didn’t pay them. 🔥🔥🔥
I missed this
Think he said ghostbiters talking about flow biters not knowing they're biting him.
"I used to be a con-artist" He used to be signed to Akon's Konvict Muzik.
Btw, CyHi was talking that Godbody talk with “4:30,” he was using supreme mathematics. 4: culture freedom, 3: understanding, 0: cipher. That’s why he’s “woke.” Dope entendre. Fire bar
About damn time lol y’all keep it up!!!
"Now see his Son through the glass, that's a windows pain"
Nicea Council= Christian....his Son/Jesus....window pane = church ⛪ 🔥
I've said this once I'll say it again ...My favorite rapper since 2010
Gotta check out Nick Grant LA Leakers, Boogie LA Leakers, and Nana LA Leakers 🔥
Hope y'all are catching those Coast Contra videos! Rare Freestyle, Giving Up the Goods...amazing!!
I agree no dope on Sunday was a fire album, I enjoyed that too 🔥🔥🔥💯
I think "ghost spiders" is "ghost biters" but I like where you went with that lol
It's both
Chi got crazy wordplay. That Mossberg riding shot gun is jezzy tho
Carnivals and fairs aren't the same. That line is hard. Life ain't fair neither is the carnival.
About time 👍🏾🔥
I didn’t make it through all of the comments but I thinks it’s worthy to mention that Mossberg is a company that makes shotguns. (In reference to riding shotgun in the front seat) Just another example of Cyhi’s lyrical genius.
So glad y’all got to this one
15:13 it was such a slick line that you guys harmonized !!! Lmfao 🤣
To the question @ 9:30 he was first signed to Akon’s label Konvict Muzik before def jam & good music “ ‘kon-artist’”
God tier freestyle
He was signed with Akon Konvict Music “used to be a kon artist”
He was A Kon artist cause he was signed to Konvict music, the A Kan artist when he moved to GOOD music then a con artist just from scheming. YOOOOOOO!!!!!!
Kon Artist line refers to when he was signed by Akon Konvict Music but could also be double entendre to Kan Artist Kanye when he was signed to Good Music
"Used to be a Kon artist, but never picked a pocket" reference was he was signed to Akon before Good Music.
Is that a Volcom hat?! I haven’t seen or heard Volcom since my skateboarding days in highschool. Lol
The silent and listen scheme snd the way he said it reminds me of Fred the Godsons style.
"a kon artist" when he was signed with konvict music
Maybe I’m reaching but his line, “Ni**az shooting in the air, never had a dog fight” might be a entendre to the Movie Air Bud.
Cyhi, King Los, Kiss, Kendrick, Cassidy. That’s my list PERIOD
Bars soo effortless
Damn, I understand why I'm never early, it's 1:30 AM!
The con artist reference is that he was first signed to Akon's record label.
