Honestly, I don't think they will ever be cyphers as good as some of these ever again, especially not the likes of that legendary Kendrick, Meek, Krit cypher. If we can't even get most to be as good as the legendary guilty pleasure that is that 2016 cypher, what hope is there? This year's list was comprised almost solely of social media personalities that happen to rap. Don't know how Logan Paul missed this one, but we got Coi Le-ray I guess..
ScHoolboy Q is so overlooked. I mean just listen to blank face from start to end. This shit is so different from lyrics to overall sounds, flows and moods.
I mean, they just pick who’s hot, and always have. When the wave of “real lyrical rap” kinda died out around 2014 and trap started getting mad popular in 2015 the demographic of who was hot in the scene changed.
There was some good lyricism on here. Tink, K dot, Travis, Jon Conner, gates.... what do ppl want, real bars that are clear and concise with punchlines and technical hip hop execution or mumbling over a dope beat. Cyphers are for bars, period. That’s it that’s all.
Bronson buried his bars cold blooded n hes not on here...way better than T. Scott Jacque LaRock verse in the same cypher...Joey Bada$$ killed his doe...that was such a good year...
Of his year, sure. Him and Dave were a great duo, he had a no beat freestyle and turnt it into a actual song on one of his albums. When you say he had best verse out of all of them, I think you would have a big debate between Kendrick Lamar, Dave East and some may say Travis and ofc a few others.
This is so refreshing after hearing Coi Leray 😩
Oml yes

That Travis Scott one still catches me by surprise everytime
Tyler Marsh he's changed so much

COFFEE BEAN shows that he can still spit
@@Thabosefoloshia every song on astro proves he can spit
Magic_Cheetos bro facts
Kendrick is one of the most talented humans on the planet
No arguments about that.
Thankyou
No doubt. Unpopular opinion: His XXL freestyle wasn’t one of his best. Sounded like a written for another beat. Cadence was off for most of it.
And the shortest

JoHn Muir is probably one of his best songs, so many highlights on that album
He's been goin crazy since his first album "setbacks" 🔥🔥
Instant classic
TINK went in. Dammm !!!

right
Nigga was here in time
Kevin Gates was really talking that talk 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Straight!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I feel like Kevin Gates is under appreciated. Hands down my favorite rapper
Man said dude killed his brother so he took him from his family got some tears on his face now he’s branded.. man was speaking that shit
Bruh Kyle killed that shit. He’s got one of the most happiest flows in the game and I love that shit. He puts you in such a good mood
Old chance the rapper flow
Tink killed that. DAMNNNNN
It's amazing to see how Travis has progressed and evolved. This man had a Kid Cudi flow back in 2013.
An now he’s all auto tune sad
P
@@bojackson9140he uses it as an instrument
Travis actually rapping is crazy
Kevin Gates killed it
Travis Scott really shocked me
The drugs changed him :(
What a rapid decline XXL is on. Early 2010s were different
I mean, they just pick who’s hot, and always have. When the wave of “real lyrical rap” kinda died out around 2014 and trap started getting mad popular in 2015 the demographic of who was hot in the scene changed.
I miss Rashad man. He was such a good dude.
Real lyrical rap died LONG before 2014, my friend. More like sometimes in between 2004-2007 and tat is really the absolute limit of the outer edges
The decline started in 2001. I'll never forget it. Nelly came out, we said WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS, and then it just got worse and worse from there
@@JasonHebert The Nelly hate will not be tolerated.
I remember back in 2016 it was this BIG thing that they had the weakest class, but they really had artist that are still relevant today!!
Why can’t Kyle have music like his freestyle 😔
He does bruh, listen to his old stuff
it’s literally from his song david blaine
Some of the best have been missed, chance, logic, dave east, and no boogie? cmon man
oh and the whole hopsin cypher was missed, one of the best
Jid ski mac and hopsin
Wxter it said 2011-2017 jid and ski were in 2018
Jid, Ski, Hopsin, Danny Brown, Aminé, Mac, Big Krit, Raury, where all of these ?
@@pecnil the title of the video trolled everybody
I half expected the entire 2016 cypher to be here
Bro, Tink fucking killed that. Idk why no ones commented that.
never heard of jon connor but his energy was insane and his flow was god like
He is extremely slept on. Dr Dre signed him like 10 years ago and never did shit to promote him
or advance his career in any way.
if you think his flow is anything remotely comparable to God, you need to get to know God🤣
Kyle verse mad underrated
1st time hearing Tink Cypher. She went off 🔥 🔥 🔥
PUT RESPECT ON HERB!!! HE BEEN THATTT
KENDRICK TOO, PERIOD!
YO TINK BLEW THAT SHIT UP THO STRAIGHT FACTS
“You couldn’t even out shine my shadow” CRAZZZY
Tink lowkey killed it
high key * 😜
Coi need some lessons from her 🥴
Meek Mill had the best verse 100%
I never liked meek mill (his voice), but he killed that verse, I agree
Preachhhh
Old meek was different 😢
Joey will always go hard🔥🔥
Jon Connor definitely got the hottest xxl cypher it was unexpected
I always come back to the G Herbo, Dave East, Kyle, Denzel and Lil Dicky freestyle them shits go too hard.
Xs had everyone by suprise
Yes he did he had me surprised I was like bruh why tho 😭 R.I.P. X
@@unreleasedvideos7100 fr like l love x but that shit killed the voice 😭
Meek mills was so fire
There was some good lyricism on here. Tink, K dot, Travis, Jon Conner, gates.... what do ppl want, real bars that are clear and concise with punchlines and technical hip hop execution or mumbling over a dope beat. Cyphers are for bars, period. That’s it that’s all.
Agreed!
so many missed ones too, logics verse imo was better than 99% of this list.
Bronson buried his bars cold blooded n hes not on here...way better than T. Scott Jacque LaRock verse in the same cypher...Joey Bada$$ killed his doe...that was such a good year...
Even the panda guy verse goes harder then cori 😂😂
Can we just take a moment to respect how xXx came on the scene right there.
Travis without autotune👀🔥🔥
Miss Rashad man. Wish he at least saw some more success before losing him. The boy deserved everything.
Rashad as in Isaiah Rashad?
Aint isaiah rashad alive still??
Dave east and G herbo the best from 2016 along side lil dicky🔥
Disrespectful that Dave wasn’t here wtf
I agree completely
travis with minimal auto tune sounds 🤌
He asellout
Tink & gates was the rawest
I’m so lost how it go to 2020 but wasn’t even made after or during 2020 ???
how could it be made after

It is edited afterwards
Vince staples verse gave me chills
G Herbo had the cleanest freestyle
Fr
God loves us!
We need that Travis back
Never heard of Jon conners, but he killed that shit!
TINK went tf awf tho!! 😍
I can’t say who’s my favorite there is too much greatness
Only watched this for gates
That whole cypher was fire
@@raymondperez2159 yeah but in my opinion gates and Kendrick had to best and most lyrical parts
@@raymondperez2159 but out of that whole Cypher him and the 2nd guy was the best
John Connor was the hardest 😢 to me just being lyrically honest💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yea he goes f@ckin hard w that real talk....
🗣🗣TINK SNAPPED‼
Can't call it between Dave East and Herbo. That was crazy
That dude behind Jon Connor was shook he had to follow that.
Lmao lil bro was about to dropout of xxl faster than he dropped out of high school
4:02 asthma
Herb went crazy
This is why Denzel is the 🐐
Mhmm
denzel washington ik right
the fact logic and absolutely NO ONE from 2012 is on here, along w no mac miller and no dave east & Gherbo makes this list completely invalid
Harold Grant herbo made it
Harold Grant I’m pretty sure logic isn’t on here just because it’s him
@@aidenc9k facts, people hate on him just to hate but he had one of the best Cypher verses of all time.
Gherbo Azz 😭🤣😂
GLOKK wtf that’s cap 🧢
That John Connor dude had bars.
Yo honestly the most underrated
It's because he came from the future.
#DetroitShit !!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Check his music out son was signed to #Aftermath got some dope joints with #DrDre on the track !!! No Cap !!! 💯✌🏾
X was speaking and or rappin about real government shit, real life situations and or conspiracies and he was young, R.I.P x LLJ
Boring verse just sounded cringey
Nigga broke the fucking matrix literally. @@Mich-jk2ze
Gherbo most likely got their in a private jet that day
One of the best ones ! Look at the one from this year 😩
Where is Tink now ,damn she killed her verse she definitely deserves to be on the list
She makes rnb records mostly now
Just watched a best of only started at '19... This is what I was lookin for 💥💥
TINK+THAT BEAT= 🔥
G herbo had the best verse 🔥 outta all of them arguably
Period Bruh wtf they thought

Him and Dave east carried they year ong 😂
I swear he did
@@twicethecharm6002 you can't relate but it's 🆒😎
So interesting to see these now in 2020
Cyphers after 2013 just went down when the trap stars got big in the game.
Kendrick appearing on best everything 🤾🏿♂️💯
Bukenya James gotta respect it
seeing travis is inspiring asf
Joey badass underrated his verse was STRAIGHT BARS
Vince's freestyle is fire man.
Tink has bars bars😭😭
Does Denzel’s verse ever get old? NO.
Denzel da goat
x walked out like that boss battle after the boss battle & if u lose u have to start over the whole boss battle
no jid or ski mask. cmon bro
Got you next time
Yea
Trash
Ski mask is ok ig but this is best freestyles not up here Bc he’s one of ur favorite rappers
@Drippy8805 OnXbox ok😐
As the years increase the talent decreases. 🤷🏻♀️
2015 Tink went harder than 2021 artist on god !!!
Tink slid!
Remeber JoeyBadass was 17 spitting this heat. Bro dropped 1999 and had to go to school that morning.
Meek killed it
Gates was just vibin in the back 😂😂
Haha while them niggas geeking out in front of him
So many better then some you put on here. Busta for one
Ok Travis!!!
Wish Travis dropped a project like he freestyles before he killed a bunch of people at a concert but yall don't wanna talk about that 😒
Listen to this on acid or shrooms fr😂😂🔥🤘
I'm not gonna lie I was surprised at how good that off the top freestyle went for ugly god. But his solo freestyle was valid
+Pilot Games factssssss straight fireeeee
Ugly God was trash
Trying to stay grounded like a delinquent in middle school clowning is an underrated Kendrick bar
Joey BadA$$ still got the best one all time. 🔥
Exale
Awww young Kendrick!
They really be letting just anybody up there
Sure do
u freestyle den
Kevin gates had a god beat so I liked his flow a lot.
G herbo was spittin
Travis Scott needs to rap like that again
Gates always bring it
Rattatatata it's like that uh
Y’all serious nobody gonna talk about how good Kendrick Lamar was. Y’all must be sleep 😴
Ain’t nobody sleep we already know how good dude was and he’s goat so this cypher isn’t really something that’s crazy from him
