Other than the radio session with Big L, has anybody ever seen Jay Z freestyle? the only thing I've ever seen was him in The Basement, and the nikka spit writtens :scusthov: Is he God MC or Fraud MC? Speak on it.

I've seen him spit acapellas on stage that sounded like they were freestyles...

As far as radio? nope. If he does it'll always show up on an album or feature somewhere

retarded thread. Hov like 90% of other rap artists don't actually come off the top, they freestyle unreleased material or upcoming records at shows/radios etc.

stop being petty nikka

also, that grammy family freestyle was a song, not an actual freestyle. I see nikkas still can't tell the difference between a real free or nikkas just spitting bars.

I'm glad I lived in an era of the true freestyle. First time I heard a written 'freestyle' was Biggie - What's Beef, think it was unreleased at the time. as dope as it was, you knew it wasn't a freestyle.

Just like there's no way in hell Grammy family's a freestyle

Hopefully you learn what a real freestyle sounds like. These are the best examples I can think of, esco mixes writtens with real freestyles. Now kick rocks lil nikka.

Seems like Hov only spits writtens. Jay Ova, Fraud MC :scusthov: He still got that money game on lock though :whew: I personally think Nas is the God MC
