Thank you guys for showing this man the love he deserves. He is the truth, and the album is absolutely incredible! Loved the interview before the freestyle too!
Watching and listening to marlon’s precision of exactly how things really are in America and that change for the better takes work drives me to do the best I can for those around me. Small changes added up can be enormous over time. I am humbled
it's artists like Marlon who realistically won't be properly appreciated until well after the fact because he's currently ahead of his time and people need time for their mentals to catch up. The living embodiment of "if you know you know"
Wow, I could NOT agree more syd. Watching him grow from his 1st "5 fingers of death" Segment on 'Sway.. To seeing him NOW.. Definitely an artist who struggles to stay relevant in his own Lane #SelfMade But realistically not properly appreciated, ... BUT He is most DEFINITELY appreciated from the most high. #Hot97 #Sway
I think he will be huge and reach Harlow popularity and then blow up even more. Real rap is back and kids will love his engaging and positive message wrapped in such a catchy flow and creative, intelligent and passionate storytelling. Let’s hope mental stays healthy, drugs don’t get in the way and that he sticks to his Craft which is beautiful and refreshing.
That double meaning of finally having a perspective that's your own, and being able to look into your own eyes in the mirror and truly see yourself 👨🍳💋👌
Marlon Craft is legitimately one of the realist artists alive right now. Not one of the many, but one of the few. Always such a pleasure to vibe and process this lyricism.
Yo that smacked harder then I coulda prepared myself for. I Been a fan of your music like yeah but this one right here was enough to sell me a ticket to see you preform in Chicago. Thanks for the heads up on the tour too I woulda slept on it if it weren’t for this drop 👏🏼
Thank you for giving him this platform Sway ✊🏿 So glad I got to see Craft in Columbus. Boy was on 🔥🔥🔥 should've spent the extra for the meet & greet but had to cop a Tshirt and support him
Jack Harlow also has an unique quality. It just feels he has sold his soul a bit to go big. Dark knight, check that song, at 17. Forever classic in my world.
Literally got goosebumps when he started spittin‘ and they stayed for the whole video. Bars on another level as always, Marlon just way beyond the whole scene.
I don't think most will catch the depth. He doesn't just ride a beat. And he also utlilizes different time signatures which is impressive, but the metaphors and symbolism he uses is very powerful. I think he's on some Black Thought level.
Marlon's like Katt Williams. Integrity over fame. Message over radio hits. I feel like Rhymesayers would've been a good fit but he's like...doin his own shit? I have no idea but I know the dude is nuts talented. Get him on a track with Kendrick ffs.
SWAY IN THE MORNING MY HIP HOP FAMILY. LOVE YALL 🙏🏻❤️
I love your work, keeping it up was an understatement advice from everybody for u in the past
You been one of my favorite artists for a while now marlon🫡 good shit brodie🔥
“You’re not an artist if money is your only way to greatness”
Love ya too bro ♥ Keep up the amazing work. Big up from Germany
Thank you for taking bars and real writing seriously. The real heads appreciate this.
Impossible not to love this dude. The flow is fire, the lyricism is epic, but the authenticity is what really resonates.
Well said
I wish I could give 2 thumbs up.
That man just told me his whole life story and how to live a proper one. What a freaking artist.
That beat got BODIED!😮 Mans had no business setting that whole room on fire. God damn.🔥💐
“Rap games Jeff Van Gundy, disgusted by the league I love”
🔥
This man is no joke. Please let him be the path for what hip hop is and should be
Facts. Mumble rap and trap rap are by products of rap. Marlon is a a gifted MC
Insane! I was in the room when this happened and the feeling was electric.
😎✌️
Me too! I was in the back!
How the hell were use there haha
@@anthonyamen2002 😂😂
Thank you guys for showing this man the love he deserves. He is the truth, and the album is absolutely incredible! Loved the interview before the freestyle too!
When I tell you I come back to this freestyle at least 3x a month, Marlon is that dude!!
Bro 20x a day!

Watching him grow from his 1st
"5 fingers of death"
Segment on 'Sway..
To seeing him NOW..
Definitely an artist who struggles to stay relevant in his own Lane
#SelfMade
But realistically not properly appreciated, ...
BUT
He is most DEFINITELY appreciated from the most high.
#Hot97
#Sway
He just shows the light and if you grow you grow

Dude is absolutely incredible
Man this woke culture makes it hard for us to appreciate artists like Marlon man
“They treat songs like them mid-twenty baldies they just always throw cap on it” this bar way too fire and way too accurate lol
Nobody doing it like Marlon right now. NOBODY ❤
Funk Flex immediately after he finishes his bars: “So Marlon, you mentioned something about needing to grow up?”
funk flex only reacts to bars about toxicity
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Funk Flex was acting like a punk in that interview.
Dude has a philopsher's stone in his chain. Bars are gold. Faith restored that hip hop hasn't been killed by industry.
Mad love to Sway and the team for always showing Marlon love. Big things are coming for this man!
That's why I keep coming back to Sway, they keep it real all the way and know real MCs when they see em.
"Bruce Lee with a kick drum" had me smiling hard. Endless flow...✊️✊️✊️
That flow switch was so DOPE!!!! “Who he is an end sum, choose me the regret come” Sheeeeesh.. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
"I used to crave the respect and cred till I realized it was all for self gain and respect is dead"
Fire
"Took me a few decades to see through my own eyes " who didn't feel the depth of that verse
That double meaning of finally having a perspective that's your own, and being able to look into your own eyes in the mirror and truly see yourself 👨🍳💋👌
Mindfulness. He is aware and awake now
Dude strait killed that Primo beat! Made me a fan today.
Vic Mensa also killed this beat. Both great artist.
@@madmax3093ok, I'll definitely check that out.
Have you heard more Marlon Craft yet??
So underrated bars on bars Marlon truly is the master of his craft dude is a beast
Hmack destroys him
Mack would tear him past in an actual freestyle, which this is not. But Craft is amazing all the same. It’s just that Mack is an alien.
@@benjamindavid6733 maybe in a freestyle, but actual music u can’t even compare marlon, marlon is on a different level
Can’t wait for Marlon craft to come back
"i confronted all the me's i was, told em it was time to grow into the me i love" is heavy
Glad to see you put this edit of just the freestyle out!!! Marlon killed it as usual. His pen game just keeps getting sharper. NY young vet! 🔥🔥🔥
Battle hmack
Never heard of him, but i damn sure have now!!!
Another classic 🔥. Craft delivers nothing but the best. Every time
Damn, marlon hitting marks over and over again. Hes unstoppable
"Cause these snakes slitherin' and I don't speak in riddles" might be one of the slickest Harry Potter bars I ever heard
Best in the game. No question.
This is how New York sounds
"Took me a couple of decades to see through my own eyes". No doubt💯
He super nice and he getting better!! He burned this down!!
I never heard of this guy before now. But man, that was straight fire and deep meaningful lyrics
He's a problem.... mad slept on
Check out his work. Dudes already got mad discography and every song is a banger.
Look up his song Julius randle
Check out his freestyle on Flex. He went off for like 10 minutes. That was my introduction to Marlon a few years back. Been a big fan since.
You heard more from him yet?
"The living embodiment of 'if you know, you know'"
Truer words were never spoken.
Boy boy nice wit it word. Peace and love Brooklyn NYC...
I remember meeting Marlon years ago at Audiomack w/ my bro Locksmith. Still the same! Fire.
Marlon, you have endurance!! Tour de Force!!
he is a true lyricist..no doubt about it..dude just kept on going..this is what hip-hop needs...a breath of fresh air...loved it
Cause it’s written bro. That’s why he kept going.
@@jtcash44 Lmao bro you know that everything on this show is prewritten?
@@zacharytrudell2411 Yes. That's why it's not a true freestyle.
@@jtcash44 Even if that's the case, his written freestyle is better than everyone else's
@@mechsuit80 Harry Mack would body this guy on a true freestyle. Light work.
Killed that beat and love the love he’s getting . Definitely deserved . True artist
Marlon Craft is legitimately one of the realist artists alive right now. Not one of the many, but one of the few. Always such a pleasure to vibe and process this lyricism.
The moment sway starts to chuckle and puts that stank face on you know thats a real MC in front on him
heard his new project.. man, too good
Reminds me of old school rap
“You can keep your free meal, I cook bro!” 🔥🔥
A true citizen knows where the volume is and dosent have to ask sway hahaha. Craft kills the sway in the mornings
Everyone that’s watching this Masterpiece🔥going through the Struggle/Pain hang in there i wish y’all Health Wealth Prosperity and Blessings
Fucking FRESH!!!!! Missile Toe. Bwahahahaha

This dude blowing me away, every time.
Yo that smacked harder then I coulda prepared myself for.
I Been a fan of your music like yeah but this one right here was enough to sell me a ticket to see you preform in Chicago. Thanks for the heads up on the tour too I woulda slept on it if it weren’t for this drop 👏🏼
This deserves a milli plus views and beyond, this is how rap should be, marlon craft is that truth
Craft a real one
🎙🎙🎙🎙🎙🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He's him❤
Craft straight up BODIED THIS!!
Marlon taking his bars to the next level 🔥
Marlon kills it everytime/anywhere
Boy name dropped Toney Douglas (former Knicks player). Just for that reason, that freestyle is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😂😂 (he's a real New Yorker)
This man has mad respect he ripped this shiiii
Never heard of him. But he most definitely can spit But I'm trying to figure out who he sounds like?
Marlon Craft is 🔥 look his music up.
One of a kind.
He sounds New York AF
This man is the truth, I related to his poetry in a way I cannot describe
The living embodiment of if you know, you know!!
Killing it like always 🔥
Bring the king Harry Mack on the show.
One of the realest out there still making real vulnerable art and being a murderous lyricist at the same time
Smashed it Marlon! 🔥🔥🔥 Feeling the heat all the way over here in the UK...
Thank you for giving him this platform Sway ✊🏿 So glad I got to see Craft in Columbus. Boy was on 🔥🔥🔥 should've spent the extra for the meet & greet but had to cop a Tshirt and support him
Bruh...Jesus...I was sleeping at first but God respect my guy u doin it homie.
Homie went in🔥🔥🔥
This is Hip-Hop History! 🤯 This freestyle will live forever. 🔥 #madprops #witnessinggreatness
I'd like to live in the universe where marlon craft is getting all the attention that jack harlow is currently getting. Because he deserves it.
Jack Harlow also has an unique quality. It just feels he has sold his soul a bit to go big. Dark knight, check that song, at 17. Forever classic in my world.
fr. but jack is fire too
I don't think he wants that. I hope this mans get what he wants and at Godspeed🙏
Dark knight a classic just like Eastern Parkway
"The living embodiment of if you know you know, I just show you the light and if you grow you grow"
BARS....YOUR CANT SPELL BARS WITHOUT THE ARS IN IT!!!!🤙🏿💯🐐
Swayyy you should definitely get harry mack on the show to freestyle. The best to ever do it ong💯💯💯💯💯
Craft > jack
Goosebumps from craft everytime...stg
“If they’re tackling issues then im warren sap” 🔥🔥🔥
Marlon still got heat 🔥
Hair look luscious / my soul on crutches 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
But damn that was nuts, true skill, sharp as hell
I sling hope and distribute care/ there's expensive and then there's rare
Literally got goosebumps when he started spittin‘ and they stayed for the whole video. Bars on another level as always, Marlon just way beyond the whole scene.
Goosebumps means that it’s the truth…
I still have goosebumps and the video ended a minute ago 😂 that line about becoming the person he loves was absolutely insane
Definition of underrated
The Lion has Roared, Manipura Power baby
MVP
Winner : Marlon Craft
Most Improved
Winner : Marlon Craft
I don't think most will catch the depth. He doesn't just ride a beat. And he also utlilizes different time signatures which is impressive, but the metaphors and symbolism he uses is very powerful. I think he's on some Black Thought level.
That was very nice
Damn what an inspiration for artists like me trying to level up ! I see the work is paying off marlon keep it up ✊🏽🥊
Perfectly executed 🎶👨🏽🍳
flawless victory
The Energy is building! Keep this level up Crafff
Marlon is what hip hop needs, lyrically and flow is a lost Art these days
Large facts! He’s inspiration for me for sure
Been followin this nigga mad long..yoooo
Marlon Craft is a Lyrical beast
Love from UK 🇬🇧
Craft never disappoints. Especially on Sway! 🔥🔥🔥
I'm one of this man's number one fans bro!!..
Marlon's like Katt Williams. Integrity over fame. Message over radio hits. I feel like Rhymesayers would've been a good fit but he's like...doin his own shit? I have no idea but I know the dude is nuts talented. Get him on a track with Kendrick ffs.
🔥
