When I freestyle rap some of my friends are convinced that I'm reciting memorized lines when in actuality, I would never be so fraudulently lame. It deters people from wanting to freestyle around me and some of my other friends who are also exceptional freestylers, and when I see someone go balls to the wall despite how bad they think they sound in contrast, I do my best to encourage and make them feel they have just as much a right to spit it regardless. I enjoy the differences in flow and message across the spectrum.

yoooo Hopsin kills it. i don't completely agree with the words he picked to address those topics but shiiiiit man that track is just scathing and pissed off and raw and that's what's up. i first heard Hopsin on some mix tape w/ Iggy Azalea, Mac Dre. now i'm gonna watch the rest of these Ill Mind of Hospin videos

[korny]

Wha wha whaaaat? Mac dre is my fuckin rap idol. I gotta hear this shit now.

ill mind of hopsin is some bomb shit

[Wayward Vagabond]

hopsin is the shit. pretty much every thing he spits is like daaaaamn. i would definitely say check out his stuff.

[Wayward Vagabond]

[Choofers]

not a fan of hopsin

his older stuff seems like he's trying way too hard to be edgy and his new stuff is pretty surface level

[Wayward Vagabond]

leave the pots and pans in the kitchen choof

[Choofers]

wat

[Choofers]

i'm just saying, he used to be a decent horrorcore artist and now he raps about sobby shit

PANS IN THE KITCHEN DUUUUDE


that is one of my favorites.

[Aldentron]

i certainly don't think i could sit through a whole album by Hopsin, but every song seems to have 3 or 4 lines that i reeeeeeally like

and korny, now i don't remember if it was Mac Dre or any of the other Macs out there... could have been Macklemore or Mac Lethal (probably not Mac Lethal tho)

[AcidFace]

Hopsin's got great flow but his music often comes a bit selfrighteous. I don't know, he's not my cup of tea necessarily.

Wiki is great:

also Joey Bada$$ is my shiz

[Coolboyrulez0]

ya wat about RiFF RAFF tho

all the freestyles of his are hilarious and so are his vids and he actually has some really witty lines even though he is a sort of self-parody rapper

[AcidFace]

I respect riff raff for what he is but I can't get into it at all

[Wayward Vagabond]

The only thing that irks me about some of hopsins stuff is that he has swizzz in some of his songs. The guy has the most annoying voice holy shit

[top]

swizzzes voice kills it for me. like holy shit man shut up.


Dizzy Wright's good as fuck. he's just so damn chill.



oh yeah and the post up there about Hopsin comin off as self-righteous. that's the name of the game dude. that's like, what you do in the rap society. build yourself up.
I mean you don't HAVE to but it's not like it should be looked down upon at all

[Choofers]

self-righteous is cool
whiny isn't
