Classic! Chicago contributed a lot to hip hop

yeah, this session was about "bringing back the old freestyle kanye" lol they even say it in the video

he rarely freestyles after grad, when it was part of his identity prior to grad and very common

its a once in a blue moon thing, and most of the time it annoys/irritates him

And R&B….

Damn 96 fr?

Ye was around damn near in hip hop golden era

63rd?

gotta remember he linked up with no id very early that got him connected to a lot

but with common its not a surprise cuz chi had a major tightknit underground and common was the one that only made it at the time

and kanyes first group started in 99, a chicago based rap group - the go getters. and was with them till like 2001/2002

Watch that you got bootleg on 63rd

Music in general

This is Hip Hop

say what you want about kanye but he really lives this hip hop s***

That part

Common basically told Kanye that he's the gatekeeper and that he'll persuade them to go see one of the chick's from his harem, Stephen, so she can smack them upside their head

But Kanye was always a great freestyle tho. I actually heard a few freestyles from him before but that was years ago. The world does need to see them

Good looks twin

This heat tho wtf why have i never heard this?

You can tell ye listened to a lot of ny rap he sound like sheek louch at times.

Confirmation he was capping in that drink champs interview

very cool bit of history

This was cool as f*** man. Ye definitely gave me super early Mase vibes like off Strech and Bobbito freestyles lmaoo

I ain’t even see your post before I posted mine bro but facts

You hear it too

That’s so dope

Im sorry but YE ate niggas food

this thread just more proof that those who downplay ye’s hip hop heritage are stupid af

Crazy
