    Great analysis! I'm not a freestyler so having the rhyme schemes broken down is very illuminating. Here's a few lyrical things I love here that are more text-based:
    * the physics double of "above average, g".
    * that super and pursue are a literal word flip, with flipped syllables.
    * Bottom of Atlantic as a record-label double (which I don't think he meant, but I like).
    * The way 'terms' segues into 'like a professor.' Retroactive double!
    * The 'Mack and cheese, mac and cheese, MC' stacked triple.
    * That he chooses the right metaphorical words for the other freestylers: Juice 'flows,' Supernat is a 'God.'
    * How he'll follow up a bar (he's done this elsewhere too) that doesn't make sense with "It makes sense" or "It's common sense" and then make it make sense. (Here I'm thinking of known on every continent, then immediately explaining why Antarctica is in there.)
    * That he's purposefully deceitful in the car bars, where he acts like he's thinking about it but has started the "Prius" rhyme four bars earlier.
    And a bunch more! Crazy to me to think how his lyricism, rhyme schemes, rhythm and improv all gel like that. And yet I've seen some people say Harry is too simple to really get into. Willful ignorance!
    Thanks again. Love it.

    "designer one liner" is a fire term bruh. he uses "get u high like *insert weed reference" and "get u twisted up like *insert alcohol or joint"
    i think its pretty clever to use these cuz ur brain most likely skips over that part anyway, we can only handle so many punchlines in a row. agreed on the titanic bar

  • @InfiniteCuriousity

    Super dope breakdown, love it! Great job man! I'm usually more focused on lyrics and the wordplay, and he absolutely crushes that aspect here, so I end up not noticing some of the insanity of the rhyme schemes in use! Absolutely love getting my eyes opened to another layer in an already legendary freestyle!!
    A couple of things I wanna mention:
    1 - The "designer one-liner" concept isn't a surprise to Harry Mack's fans, he's talked about it a few times, and while he does practice to reduce filler bars, he's said before that there are certain rhymes he will always keep, because he considers them anchors for his fans to latch on, since his performances are always freestyled (e.g. throttle/water bottle/slaughter..etc.)
    2 - Not sure how extensively you've watched his stuff, but you mentioned that the one line where he goes pretty fast is prepped, and you mentioned that you know he can go faster from his rapgod, but his last 10-20 Omegle bars show that he can do double-time with so much ease that he's now able to pack them full of references and rhyme schemes that are just as intricate as regular speed (and he's clearly been working on triple-speed now, that's the new frontier, and for that speed, it's usually designer-one-liners for now, but I imagine he'll progress to doing intricate stuff at triple-speed, which is just absolutely mindblowing...
    3 - The stanza where he got the "hyena" word, I watched a reaction from iKaanic for this performance, and he mentioned that Harry Saw the words slightly earlier than when the word change appeared in the video, you can see when Harry looks down, then 2-3 seconds later, the word flip appears on the video, he sees the word when he looks down, so the Hyena stanza's rhymes were actually intentional not accidental, and his little chuckle is more because he recognized the meta aspect of being on Sway and being asked to rap about the word "Hyena", which is what Sway's fans are called :D
    4 - This one you didn't necessarily call it out, but just wanted to mention it since iKaanic touched on that too. The amazing line about "Marvel at my Lyrics from to DC" was actually used for the first time here in this performance, and everyone lost their minds, including iKaanic. However, there was another Omegle bars that was released before this one came out, and in that one, he used that line too, so everyone thinks he reused it here, when in fact, it was used here first, which I think is awesome!
    Love this video, subscribing now, keep doing more!

    @MuttonChops24 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think you also need to discuss the double entendres that he includes in his rhyme patterns. its one thing to have like an AABA rhyme patter but another thing to also make it a double. especially in freestyling.
    Like when he said "Mack M.C. is stackin the cheese" That was about money and also Mac N' cheese the food.

    @jeffreymorris5815 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is a legendary breakdown bro! What might be cool is to have the whole lyric maybe kinda scrolling? Because you know obviously sometimes harry will end a bar and then start the next off a rhyme from that. Like when he ends with "cheese" and then starts the next bar with "ironically" with the emphasis on that double e sound, you don't really get to see that when you break it into stanzas.

    Yo, I love the breakdown: Just wanted to add what I noticed at the dinosaurs scheme. I am not sure whether it was intended, but the "velociraptors" sounds like a double entendre "loss of raptors". He was referring to that he kills the other rappers so in the there are not many left anymore. Also drastic part could be understood as "drastic park", referring to parking other rappers, that's why he continues with "motherfucking" in the next line.

    • @peterhans3495
      @peterhans3495 ปีที่แล้ว

      And also there is the "fuck the chain, I can kill you in a sweatshirt" line at the end, which is simple but has such a deep meaning. I think he is referring to the music industry. He produces his own music and is not chained by any label but still kills it.

    I love the breakdown you give. The only other people I’ve seen break down his technique some are Ryan bellflows and Knox hill, but they didn’t go quite as in depth as you. I’d love to see some more breakdowns like this.
    I’m especially interested in how Harry’s style has evolved over the past two years, from rhyme schemes to flows.

      @@thefreestyleforum I'd watch that. I'm partly interested in how he has evolved because of the way he has changed his delivery and flows post Omegle 60. It seems like his creativity in delivery has really exploded over the last 10-20 Omegle bars.

    • @XxTheDon786xX
      @XxTheDon786xX ปีที่แล้ว

      Not being a hater but I wouldn't say Ryan and Knox don't go into much depth as this, also their breakdown of techniques are different to this channel. Both Ryan and Knox likes to breakdown actual 'bars' and even a lot of different techniques used, whereas this channel (for this video specifically) was breaking down the rhyme scheme patterns (which Knox actually does too time to time). Also it's harder to go in 'depth' when you are first time reacting to a video, whereas, as stated by this channel's user (sorry can't remember name lol), he has watched this video many times.
      However, I am impressed with this video so I would also love to see more of Harry Mack reactions/breakdowns. Have a great day

    Yooooo! Big Al!👊🏼 What’s good?
    I love this breakdown!!! The “designer, one liner” is an interesting callout. One filler rhyme that I always hear Harry say is, “and when I be rhyming (right) off of the top”, but I’m not sure if it qualifies as “designer”😂.
    Nice job, bro!💯 ✌🏼&❤
    PS - In the second-to-last stanza, “they” rhymes with “Sway”.😁

    I’m an HMack fan and it always baffles me when other HMack fans get offended when people point out that he uses “filler bars.” He’s freakin human people! In addition to that, it would seem natural that his brain would remember a recent rhyme and use it again unconsciously. I heard the “Marvel to DC” scheme in his Washington DC Guerilla Bars and again during this appearance and it’s fine. I mean his brain has fractions of a milli-second to think and it just shows us that he is still human and not AI😊. Great breakdown of the bars and looking forward to seeing more breakdowns of other Freestylers.
