@@StandoutMusic1 i'm sure man is used to wearing monitors on stage, but if you've ever been in a Radio Station (live), it's a TRIP hearing yourself *right* back at yourself. Dude is trying to keep tempo
He's just keeping the beat so he can actually form bars instead of just matching the energy with loose rhymes like most of these younger guys do. BUT I appreciate the joke that was a good one.
+Omar S The term "slave name" is actually symbolic. It was used a lot during the civil rights movement. Muhammed Ali used to claim that his given born name (Cashish Clay) was his slave name, which meant it was a name invented by the white man and had no connection to his black roots.
Omar S I did peep his wiki actually. I'm not going against your opinion I'm simply explaining what the term slave name means. Muhammad Ali was a very conflicted man in an even more conflicted age, so I can't really judge him. To each his own.
I don't think people sleeping on him, just never heard of him before. This my first time hearing him rhyme. He's pretty dope. As he gets more "TV time" the interest will grow.
"Never let a white girl call me by my slave name" Mmmm, ohhh mhy gahd. "The nigga don't hang far from the tree, strange fruit" 😶😶😶😶 speechless. A creative rendition of the "Apple doesn't fall to far from the tree" idiom and ties it all together with a small rhetorical situation; slavery, racism, lynching. He also referenced "strange fruit", a song by Betty White, her name I believe. This is up there in my top ten OTD freestyles. You can tell it's OTD in how he somewhat pauses and stumbles in between each new bar; he's thinking of rhymes *and* cogency with those bars in between that scintilla of time and to deliver *this*? His freestyles are better than most artists writtens. Vince goes hard as shit. Rhyme chains, flow, wittiness, etc. He got it all.
the line "Obama never been to Long Beach, so he ride around the city carryin strong heat." was pretty good, and I bet if a rapper like Drake uses that, his fans would go crazy, but in reality it was nowhere near as good as any of the lines you mentioned.
Anybody whose ever tried to spit some bullshit off the top at any kind of cypher or session knows how fucking crazy this is...no crazy multis or metaphors or whatever like writtens, but staying that in pocket with a beat, not repeating a bunch of "spittin/kickin/hit em" filler rhymes that aint saying nothing and having actual substance off the top is fuckin insane. I thought hell can wait was dope but didnt realize how fuckin talented this kid is until seeing this. Expectations just went from "dude to watch" to "might fuck around and drop a alltime classic debut"
Vince >< Earl Stop saying either one is better... they motivate each other. and when Vince said .."guess the nigga just don't hang far from the tree, strange fruit" .......... yo, that was a Legendary line. Raspect
rayneis aloser Kanye didn't say anything like that in blood on the leaves. That was a sample from another song called strange fruit and that punchline vince did was making a reference to that song.
earl and al brought me here. this is wild its so funny that back then you haaaad to rap at these stations. i feel like yachty was the first one to be like "nah im good" changed the game lmaoo
Next Door Gamer logic can spit written verses all day but it still won't compare to how cohesive and well-delivered this freestyle by Vince was--all off the top of his head. Don't get me wrong Logic has some skill but as a rapper I think Vince is much more talented.
Vince is siiiiick. I haven't been all that impressed with his solo stuff so far, but I think it's only a matter of time before he gives us a masterpiece. Dude's got bars, and he's a really intelligent guy too.
I remember first hearing him on the ePAR track back (in I think maybe 2010 or 2011) and he stood out to me so much- from there became a fan of his. I am so proud of his growth and him finally getting the attention he deserves.
Yo Vince Staples so underrated. This was so fire in having a hard time believing the whole thing was off the top. Either way I already knew this man was intelligent before this
Chill.God Did you hear Vince on that... he said don't compare me too King Los, Lupe , or common, he ain't ain't their level of freestyling.. Don't get me wrong, Vince was nice on that, but your high as fuck if you think hes the best in the game
My bad for coming off aggressive dude, all love, It like offends me when people don't know King Los' capability , Just trying to spread the word, No disrespect my man.
I was sleeping on him before this but he definitely just made a new fan. This freestyle is better than 90% of shit rappers put out after writing to for months.
More people need to see this. This young fella ripped it off the dome, no written, 100% freestyle. A lot of these 1 hit wonders and current rappers cant do this for even 1 minute. I hope to see Vince's' career flourish
i love when swag enjoys his guest's performance. when i watched iggy azaelia's free, i felt so awkward as i seen sway sit still in his seat and try to appear impressed.
Vince Staples, Joey Bada$$, Mick Jenkins and Logic are the freshmen following in the footsteps of J. Cole, Kendrick, Drake, Wale... new age of hip hop is looking bright and promising
iRipGenos I agree 100% kendrick drake and wale been around since 07 with mixtapes and such while vince joey mick been around since 2010 "as in there good material". New age of hip hop is mos def looking bright.

Thank you Earl for reminding me of this gem
That hand def kept him tethered
That video is the reason I looked up this one
@@StandoutMusic1 i'm sure man is used to wearing monitors on stage, but if you've ever been in a Radio Station (live), it's a TRIP hearing yourself *right* back at yourself. Dude is trying to keep tempo
literally why im here
feel you
He was punching in equations on his calculator
+Jacob Black TROLL. HAHAHA
He's just keeping the beat so he can actually form bars instead of just matching the energy with loose rhymes like most of these younger guys do. BUT I appreciate the joke that was a good one.
lol
nah, definitely a calculator. Probably where he's getting his bars from.
He was actually tappin his telegram to contact otha niggas
Finally a sway freestyle that's actually a freestyle, vince is dope
Lupes was a legit freestyle.
I Isaiah yeah I know, and a few others asap included, but there are more writtens than frees so it was refreshing to see another actually off the top
+Ty Harris king los kills a off the dome freestyle as well
zmacb yeah I peeped that one too, los killed that shit
It doesn't have to be off the top to be a freestyle, but I do agree it's a lot more impressive that way.
The fact that this is an actual freestyle off the top makes this ten times more impressive. Better than most verses we hear today
Super facts. Clear diff between freestyle and a written. #SypherSaturdays
@@ARevolutionMusic You can see him focused in, like he got lyrics written on the inside of his eyelids. That zone is cold.
this man said "leave the g string on but it's off with the top" bars bruh

" Never let a white girl call me by my slave name! " 😩🔥🔥🔥🔥
can you please explain it cuz I'm a little lost and that's deadass the only line that vince ever said and i fuck with him heavy

His shit goes fucking hard
yes and yes stil in 2016 people dont know, he is top 5 definitly

@@rico6719 that vers on earl song, still underrated, but im glad about that ahha
Vince highly underrated. I don't know why people sleeping on this nigga.
Just like people sleep on a lot of dudes like constant flow.
I don't think people sleeping on him, just never heard of him before. This my first time hearing him rhyme. He's pretty dope. As he gets more "TV time" the interest will grow.
Cuz this nigga a mattress duh
^ gay as fuck
No Slave Name advil PM
He is tapping on the table as a mnemonic device and metronome. So dope.
ArrghhMatey I noticed that too and once I did I couldn't stop watching it, lol.
Exactly. That's crazy.
he does it to count 16s I think
noticed after I saw this comment. he's a genius man
How is he tapping the table as a mnemonic device? I don't understand
"strange fruit, grey coupe brown rag on the seat chipped tooth when i bit the gift sent from eve" straight poetry
"Never let a white girl call me by my slave name"
Mmmm, ohhh mhy gahd.

Carlos Charm
Christmas EVE, GIFT . Shi clever
Vince >< Earl
Stop saying either one is better...
they motivate each other.
and when Vince said .."guess the nigga just don't hang far from the tree, strange fruit" .......... yo, that was a Legendary line. Raspect
Isn't that a reference to the song the martyrs by Mick Jenkins?
yeh man i literally teared up when i heard that line. Fucking brilliant. If that wasnt a written he had in his head then this nigga is a genius.
rayneis aloser Kanye didn't say anything like that in blood on the leaves. That was a sample from another song called strange fruit and that punchline vince did was making a reference to that song.
I miss steez 😥
JaySTEEZ Bruh, you're on every fucking video.
Vince Staples and Earl Sweatshirt are the future.
Thank you!!!!
+lolita dan earl is getting old. all he raps about is all that cliché shit
+Saul Salinas what cliche shit?
+Ryuta Suzuki all this shit about him growing up without a father and all that lame stuff
+Saul Salinas oh haha I actually like that but we all got opinions. I feel like he didn't talk about that too much on IDLS IDGO tho
Love how he keeps pointing his finger at the table like every word he says is fact. Vince is king.
He was tapping his finger with the tempo to stay on beat.
J Johnson this is like some crazy juju lol kendrick be doing this shit 2 for example
J Johnson I know, rappers all have different motions when freestyling, but the first thing that came to mind was that he was making his point.
He a pressin invisible buttons ass nigga
describe9 lmao bruh
earl and al brought me here. this is wild
its so funny that back then you haaaad to rap at these stations. i feel like yachty was the first one to be like "nah im good" changed the game lmaoo
Shit even he eventually got it out the way with funk flex 😂😂 the rest of them don’t care
One of the greatest freestyles for the 2010s in my opinion. This era was so fire😩😩 miss Mac too
Mans using his hand to keep tempo, absolute professional and a genius
The nigga don't hang far from the tree, strange fruit.
Well damn...
Samohtris Powerful...and he did it off the top!!
sherbertdjones no dumb ass he didn't
Yes, he did...it was half freestyle, half written...you couldn't tell??
metroidM1A1 "If I stumble I'm really freestyling"
Samohtris shoutout to nina simone
This boy is ❄.... "Never let a white grl call me by my slave name" ... Praise this man 🙏
That part gave me that Sway stank face, lol.
Badder than your artist by faaaaar...
Vince's eyebrows make him looks angry all the time lmao
I had the same problem all my life
real life angry bird ahh nikuh
This was a real freestyle you can tell by how he stumbled much very much respect!!
"Alright---if I stumble I'm really freestyling" 👏👏👏
I personally think this is the best freestyle on Sway
Logics 5 fingers was fire though listen to that than come back and say that I love vince but I mean there's better
Next Door Gamer lupe fiasco, los were both 100% of the top and fire
Me too breh
King Los
Next Door Gamer logic can spit written verses all day but it still won't compare to how cohesive and well-delivered this freestyle by Vince was--all off the top of his head. Don't get me wrong Logic has some skill but as a rapper I think Vince is much more talented.
Why hasn't this got 1 million+ views yet.
Ur right i better get my comment in fast, where da likes at??

Earl and Al brought me back to this one
Staples is criminally underrated! !
Vince is siiiiick. I haven't been all that impressed with his solo stuff so far, but I think it's only a matter of time before he gives us a masterpiece. Dude's got bars, and he's a really intelligent guy too.
I remember first hearing him on the ePAR track back (in I think maybe 2010 or 2011) and he stood out to me so much- from there became a fan of his. I am so proud of his growth and him finally getting the attention he deserves.
Probably the best off the top freestyle, from any of these new rappers
Solid Ocelot Your juiced.. you clearly ain't listen to alot of rap ahah
Joey Bada$$ is huge off the top too
the beat is soooo vince stapes...
best delivery in the game. i swear he has gills or some shit its like he doesnt need to breathe
Surprisingly he has asthma too , so that makes it even better
This is absolutely insane...the best off the top freestyle i've heard in a very, very long time
Thanks for bringing me back uncle earl and uncle alc
"Chip tooth when I bit the gift sent from Eve" that line is powerful man
Mick Jenkins and Vince Staples collab please
Been a fan of Vince for a long time. I constantly bump his music. I can't wait to get to see him live one day.
MrLuperDuper Best rapper I've ever seen live hands down he's fuckin electric
I was at a earl show and Vince was like there to get the crowd hype and that's what he did. It was dope
This is still one of the best true freestyles I've heard
Exceptional talent. Looking forward to a full LP.
It's rare to see an actual freestyle these days. Props for not being scared to spit off the dome
Casual take, freestyles can be written. This is just an off the dome freestyle. If you think rappers in the past have always done that, you’re dumb
Joey,Vince and Kendrick need to colab asap
My ears would have an orgasm...
Don't forget chance and los :)
Paxton Oglesby I'm not really a fan of chance but they both would be dope too
+dustin yomouf Waynes got it when he wants it. it's just off pop radio. free weezy album was insane
That would be sick
anyone just come here from earl
Literally like a few mins ago bro
holy fucking SHIT. I've never heard a freestyle off the top as consistent as this. Flow so nice. Vince is fucking insane.
favorite freestyle ever.
fucking legend, this is my favorite song ever. Insane that this man is real, he's a fucking angel. This is unreal. Vince4Life
this is my favorite freestyle on sway in morning, Vince still spittin fire as usual. Definitely somebody you'll see again in the future.
7 years later. This video made me a fan shoutout Vince.
Obama never been to long beach. So we ride around the city, carry strong heat
This is one of the best off-top freestyles ever spit. Even as a big fan of Vince, I'm shocked at how good this was.
Cause I had grew up in the era were we can't change
His flow on everything is ridiculous... much respect!
Yo Vince Staples so underrated. This was so fire in having a hard time believing the whole thing was off the top. Either way I already knew this man was intelligent before this
Nevermind Sway just talked about it. Apparently that was off the top
finally actually off the top free.
This is refreshing and it's really good!
Its rare that you hear a freestyle that actually sounds off the top and not just prepared lyrics. Staples killed it.
Here from the Goat Talk w/Earl Sweatshirt and Alchemy. Sweatshirt def right. Tethered. Amazing.
That was one of the hardest freestyles i heard in a while. Im hyped for that new project to can't wait
For someone who thinks the 90s was overrated, he certainly has the lyrical skills of artists at that time. Dope freestyle!
┗(-_- )┓TURNT still totally overrated
"obama never been to long beach, so he ride around the city, carry strong heat"
god damn haha he killed this shit so hard
Vince is amazing and Summertimer 06 is one of the best hiphop albums of recent years. Really grew on me.
First verse was one of the coldest freestyle flows I've ever heard. Gave me the sour lemon face lol
Earlchemist brought me here, 🥶
same
Norf side long beach
love when its done off the top..........no matter how it sounds, off the top is not easy........love this one too.
That off the top scheme is so simple yet so crazy 🔥
Vince top 5 in the game, best freestyle in the game
Chill.God Did you hear Vince on that... he said don't compare me too King Los, Lupe , or common, he ain't ain't their level of freestyling.. Don't get me wrong, Vince was nice on that, but your high as fuck if you think hes the best in the game
*one. You right king los shit was crazy
My bad for coming off aggressive dude, all love,
It like offends me when people don't know King Los' capability ,
Just trying to spread the word,
No disrespect my man.
+ROCKEY CARDENAS You are talking about freestyling right, if so yeah he's the best but if not no he's not.
Fite Me top 5 lyrically
“Guns from the cheat codes” so good.
Taaaalent, not many new rappers can go off the dome like that. Respect
Earl and Vince, 2 greats.
Always respect those that really FREESTYLE !
right finger keeps him tethered
this is one of the best freestyles ever on sway how vince so underrated?
vince is the future
I was sleeping on him before this but he definitely just made a new fan. This freestyle is better than 90% of shit rappers put out after writing to for months.
Notice how Vince bangs his hand on the table to keep the beat? That's a real musician right there.
More people need to see this. This young fella ripped it off the dome, no written, 100% freestyle. A lot of these 1 hit wonders and current rappers cant do this for even 1 minute. I hope to see Vince's' career flourish
This display of talent right here is why Vince is in my personal top 5
from 2:35 - 3:00... if that isnt a written, then that's fucking unreal
Omg thats so dope
Daniel pretty sure that was off top
2:35 - 3:20 *
This freestyle made me a fan nine years ago
Back here cause Earl called this the GOAT Freestyle
he honestly starting to become one of my favorite artist like gotdamn
So underrated bruh, people need to stop sleeping on Vince.
This is one of the most underrated OFF THE TOP freestyles on the show
i fuck with this nigga
i love when swag enjoys his guest's performance. when i watched iggy azaelia's free, i felt so awkward as i seen sway sit still in his seat and try to appear impressed.
"Nigga don't hang far from the tree, strange fruit..." 🔥😳😭
Vince Staples is DOPE....
Vince is a legend!!!!
Sway coaching him thru his freestyle is so what do u guys call it now... Wholesome

"Never let no white girl call me by my slave name" BODIED!!
How does this not have more views, kills it off the top
his freestyle inspires me to be better at freestyle
baqwoodz I hope you followed through
Raw freestyle, I just keep coming errtym to listen to this shit because it keeps me cool and happy no joke... Vince is fucking dope
