Different class Sometimes you have to ask: "Do you want to be the best in your country or your school?" In a country full of rules, where we're selling lollipop to keep them sucking on our balls It's survival of the fittest, so I'm Mo Farah I'm black as Akon, just tryna to find my own Gaga The less mercy you show could leave you merciless alone But I'm yard grown, so I ain't taking no badda, nah And Tidal's got the whole world moving crazy It's like they rather free Spotify playlist That's messed up, like them cops on the day shift Who just can't stop and search without tazing Shit seems shocking when you're reading about it Six years old they was raiding my house, shit Tryna find my uncle, didn't open my mouth, shit My dad mighta killed me-no snitching on our ship The Titanic ain't going down because of me See I can't swim, but I'll be the anchor for the scene See how did they expect musicians to stay afloat When all our sales keep going down the stream?
"Hard work breeds success, and although I'm in labor I need a mid-wife, there's so much pressure to deliver, but I'll deliver." I paused and stood there for a minute gasping. Underrated rapper... Respect for Avelino.
Only because people try to compare it wrech is 10 + I have not seen any better freestyle us, uk Can't speak any other languages but doubt that there is better. Maybe in space
@@ryanmcguckin9491 Yeah, but I think there's more emotion in it too along with the doubles/triples. Both verses were really good but I think Wretch's is better. He isn't punching as much as Avelino either which makes it all more subtle and some of the bars harder to catch.
If it wasnt followed by wretch's it would have been given more respect, but unfortunately it was followed by one of the best lyrical verses of all time in my opinion, so naturally it was overshadowed
Got to see him at the 2012 Olympic torch hand off. Wretch 32 is something else, man's got a stage personality that just projects this aura of a champion
My days!!! At least 10x on the replay! "Challenge any artist out there to come better that!!" ... Preach Sloth! Nobody can step to this plate, fire in the booth legend without a doubt 💯
My late parter and I used to listen to this, gave us goosebumps!! What a FITB to remind me of him, he passed on July 2nd 2022. Knew each other 35 years. RIP Mark, forever missed 🫶🏼, absolutely amazing talent, never will be beaten 🙏🏼

@@joedermody2609 thank you so much for your reply, he’s always with me but definitely more when I watch this, still remember the first time he played this for me and he watched my reactions, when the tears of emotion stung my eyes and all I could say was “wow” And he said to me “yeah I know” ❤️

"The titanic ain't going down because of me, see I can't swim but I be the anchor for the scene, see how do they expect musicians to stay a float when all our sales keep going down the stream".. You tink bout dat!
Can you tell me what tune is Wretch going with?? Im onky asking coz I noticed you comment only 6 day ago.. I keep going back 2 this 4yrs its Timeless init bro both of there verses but Wretch is one of the best ever lyricist should of blown up over the States but they just think nothing happens outside America, Anyway I'd be greatful if you no pal👍 Think it mite of been a Kanye tune??
Can't help thinking Wretch needs a producer / beat maker that can match his talents. This is one of the best verses I've ever heard, but when I searched him out on Spotify, I was a bit disappointed that the tracks didn't do justice to his wordplay and rhyming. Props to FITB for matching the vibe of the verse to the backing track. This is legendary.
There are specific gems on "Growing Over Life" - Something - Cooked Food - Take Me As I Am - 6 Words If he can continue to produce songs like those - he'd be on a different level.
Wretch 32… Those are the best lyrics I’ve never heard and the hardest I’m obsessed with this fire in the booth!… still got his day I haven’t heard anythink like this!! And I only click Onto it because I remember buying his album when he first came about and wow can’t believe what I was hearing
Are you not listening… wretch says “how are us artists suppose to stay a float when all their sails (sales) are going down the stream (Spotify/Apple Music)… 🤯
2022, i still sit here with a beer at the end of my workday, chuck my headphones on and just feel the vibe. The vibe never goes away with this track. I feel the exact same way i did when i first ever heard it, 7 years is a long time to vibe to some random bars on TH-cam. Im not much of a TH-cam commenter but i just wanted to show the man some love. See you in 2029
I wonder if wretch realised how far this would go. I mean seriously this has become a legendary fire in the booth and it represents UK rap at its finest.... Its 2020 and the views are still going up... I listen to it nearly every day at work. Charlie was right to do the re-up... it makes it even better.... Just still... after all these years listening to it....... it never gets old for me......MADNESS....
Echoing other fam here, I hated it first, now it just makes me laugh, Charlie is just thick hype, love it. As an American, UK rap/grime/hiphop have showed me a completely different angle of my own language. Bless these bros.

5 years on and I’m still pissed Charlie stopped it first time round
I’m not got to hear it twice rahhhh
When he did it the second time his enunciation was measurably improved. Charlie gave us a gift.
i know. Imagine how wretch feels lol
And he needed his headphones turned up haha
We all are lol. Its staged.
Who’s listening in march 2024
Still banging darg
Yooo
🫶🏻

Absolutely amazing
Fire 🔥 📛 👨🚒 🚒
Respect to Avelino for blinking the Morse code to his lyrics
Hahahahahahahahahahaha fukin class
hahaha made my day this lad
Fucking killed me off this comment 😂😂😂😂
STOP IT LOL
hahahahaha
If Wretch was American he'd be classed as one of the best right now
True👌🏻
That is true, this is pure rap.
So true the way shitty lil Wayne is rated higher than wretch😶
harry stevens Relax Lil wayne has proven he's the one of the Goats, wretch ain't at that place yet.
a rapper which wasnt bought up around guns n violence
If your here in 2024 your music taste is unreal!
Absolutely immense , the greatest fire in the booth 2024, still listening 🐐
Wretch 32: *about to drop the sickest verse*

“And this will be the best Fire in the Booth”
Almost 6 years on and this is still the best Fire in the Booth
Kano’s isn’t on your feed👀
@Mwai Jamu it’s all opinions at the end of the day. There is multiple FITB’s that if someone said is the best, is very hard to argue against.
First time I just heard it... can't stop replaying it... its maaaaad how clever this lad is
Nah
i think jordan did better
[Avelino:]
Made a lot of noise being silent
They labelled me remote, now I'm being scouted by Island
Beg you warn a brother, I'm universal, it's timing
I've got way too much to decipher for any cypher
I'm tryna be so much greater than good for the greater good
I feel like Nas, all I need is one mic, made you look
I've got hood neighbours that ain't never left my neighbourhood
Had to burn bridges to make profit, like Moses, there ain't a bush
Independence with a major push is ideal
I'm from T and that's real, I'm done tryna define trill
I should get all of my exes watches cause time heals
I'm with a new ting in the yard on some Netflix and wine chill
Why beat around the bush, what, you ain't shaved, baby?
Put you on invasion alert, I think I'm Jaykae
The plan was to change the game and never let the game change me
So it's no strings attached until Wireless mainstage me
Like 3 said, can't you hear the difference?
I'm in Cavalli & Trues but that's just religion
Every time I made you pay attention, I was worth the listen
My ting consists of content, that's what you call consistent
Yeah, ignorance has never been as bliss as now
I wondered why I never got a look in when I listened out
The maddest ting is being yourself is what makes you different now
But pay me no mind and I won't need it cause I think aloud
Sometimes 1000 words are worth a picture
Ignore the fact that I'm an artist, that's why I'm on Insta
Hard work breeds success and though I'm in labour with her
I'mma need a midwife, there's so much pressure to deliver
But I'll deliver
It's about time that I had mine
Went from trap lines to captivating you with lyrics, that's a trap line
Where I'm from, there ain't no helping hands, there's just gang signs
Holy water flows, when you hear bap that's short for baptise
Yeah, I want my name in lights, not in a list
Name a pair of rappers that could walk in our Rizzle Kicks
2016 is the rise of the lyricist
Young Fire, Old Flame
[Wretch 32:]
Lately death's been getting ever so close
Been feeling spirits while I'm driving, I should get me a ghost
Growing up, didn't know the difference 'tween the road and my home
Now I'm grown, I'm trying to buy every home on my road
Takeaway's been over-rinsed, I need a chef to come and live with me
Last time I picked up a pot-I nearly killed a fiend
I don't see a potent rapper out here that can mirror me
When I gave my kidneys to these kids, they must be kidding me
Do you remember playing operation? (Yeah)
That's how I feel about these compilations
Think they're the next Dr. Dre until they lose their patience
Saying the game's in a state, man that's an understatement
I mean, how much more gems can I drop-on the future?
How much of my fans might just not buy my new stuff?
We all got bars, but nobody here's a brewer
I'm bringing sandwich to the beach in the hope of finding tuna
This is nonsense-past tense
I'm a rap genius-I've passed sense
So if you ain't got a 2-1, or you ain't 3-2, you gotta graduate before you pass Wretch
We got off on the wrong foot because you half-step
Meanwhile, I'm getting restless because I can't rest
Twenty-one hours I'm awake, the other three I'm in a daze writing what to say with my last breath
Can you not hear the difference? Even when it's in your system?
Every time I flip the script, I got a scripture
I've seen man go from the strip to the strip club
I'm tryna go from eating Rich Tea to the rich club
I used to wanna go from the bits to the BRITs cuz
And then I realised it's a fix when your skin's dark
Should I do a Kanye and keep it triller?
Fuck that-even when I lose, I'm the winner
I'm-the people's champ let me thank the people
Who-never got the point until they grabbed the needle
Niggas tried to minus my pluses just to divide my people
Who go from stepping on roaches to stepping by The Beatles
It's progression at its finest
They say my weakness is kindness
I killed 'em with success, cause it's timeless
Every verse is a verse from the chapter of writing
The Writing's on the Wall, we know who Destiny's Child is
King Kendrick or Jermaine Cole
Or are you saying "King Wretched" or "Jermaine's Cold"?
I'm trying to lay The Blueprint and give you Reasonable Doubt
So when you Watch the Throne, they can see me Change Clothes
Hang on, wait
You best believe that I'm a general
'Cause one of us have gotta compete at all the festivals
And I've been out here rapping for free before my testicles dropped
Man, I'm so credible, I'm incredible, ugh
They say a promise is a comfort to a fool
I'm lying if I want to say I live in comfort, I'm the truth
And this will be the best Fire in the Booth
And I doubt they'll tell you different when I'm standing in the room
Why? Different class
Sometimes you have to ask:
"Do you want to be the best in your country or your school?"
In a country full of rules, where we're selling lollipop to keep them sucking on our balls
It's survival of the fittest, so I'm Mo Farah
I'm black as Akon, just tryna to find my own Gaga
The less mercy you show could leave you merciless alone
But I'm yard grown, so I ain't taking no badda, nah
And Tidal's got the whole world moving crazy
It's like they rather free Spotify playlist
That's messed up, like them cops on the day shift
Who just can't stop and search without tazing
Shit seems shocking when you're reading about it
Six years old they was raiding my house, shit
Tryna find my uncle, didn't open my mouth, shit
My dad mighta killed me-no snitching on our ship
The Titanic ain't going down because of me
See I can't swim, but I'll be the anchor for the scene
See how did they expect musicians to stay afloat
When all our sales keep going down the stream?
Appreciate this

@sophieoesterlein968 that's my opinion so you don't get to tell me what's better 🤦🏽♂️🤣
Charlie needs to serve 25 - Life for interrupting his verse
Nah, it’s a sign of respect. It was so good that he wanted to hear this again. I reckon everybody who’s rapping live would like to hear that.
@@sambor Everyone loves a wheel up except wretch lol

HalalBacon Mee bruv, Wretch 32 still too hard
I only found it in 2018!
Who isnt
Who isn’t
regularly, greatness
"The titanic ain't going down because of me, see I can't swim but I be the anchor for the scene, see how do they expect musicians to stay a float when all our sales keep going down the stream".. You tink bout dat!
word word word 👏
+StillShiningTV nah this nigga doubled schemed, thats something i've only heard hov do. wretch is maddd
That shit got me
Doc Shemp Trust me daddy!. Lyrically wretch can level with anyone out there.
+StillShiningTV literally they took young fire old flame off link up real g's

Hope you had a good one troops.
8th day of 2023 and Avelino's still shaking his head
Can you tell me what tune is Wretch going with?? Im onky asking coz I noticed you comment only 6 day ago.. I keep going back 2 this 4yrs its Timeless init bro both of there verses but Wretch is one of the best ever lyricist should of blown up over the States but they just think nothing happens outside America, Anyway I'd be greatful if you no pal👍 Think it mite of been a Kanye tune??
Don know 💚🤍🧡
Who else listening in 2020?
Olamide yea sirrrrrr
Yessssirrrr
Hell yassss
timeless
Timeless . I’ll probably still be in 5yrs
Can't help thinking Wretch needs a producer / beat maker that can match his talents. This is one of the best verses I've ever heard, but when I searched him out on Spotify, I was a bit disappointed that the tracks didn't do justice to his wordplay and rhyming. Props to FITB for matching the vibe of the verse to the backing track. This is legendary.
Yeah I agree!
There are specific gems on "Growing Over Life"
- Something
- Cooked Food
- Take Me As I Am
- 6 Words
If he can continue to produce songs like those - he'd be on a different level.
Av was on point. Seriously good wordplay. Wretch was pissed at the rewind but it cemented this as a classic.
why is avelino disagreeing with everything wretch says
hahaha😂😂😂
U are stupid my man
+Meek Mill since when do likes measure stupidity
+Meek Mill it's his way of enjoyin the music, respecting it.
+Bamp ahlie
People need to start giving Avelino some credit he went in.
Truss me
trust
+steven shine he did but he chose the wrong time. avelino came with bazookas which is sicckkk but nobody knew wretch had built nuclear weapons
+steven shine You don't get no credit until your the best, that's the reality of it!
yah
Still to this day gives me goosebumps 🥶🥶
If you like Av's verse, you might like my song "thousandwordz." where i remixed it. Give it chance, you might be surprised !! 👍
right
2024 and this still bangs!
"I'm so credible I'm incredible" 💯
+fifa zone hd Love that line
+youngflymista ✋
cue smug face!
Avelino set fire to the room....
WRETCH SET FIRE SO THE BUILDING!
Almost...
Yer then Kano came in and set fire to the street
+WebsyHD then Akala came and set fire to the whole fucking country :D
kano is shit
Charlie was going to jump out the window cause the smoke in the room could have killed him
Wretch 32… Those are the best lyrics I’ve never heard and the hardest I’m obsessed with this fire in the booth!… still got his day I haven’t heard anythink like this!! And I only click
Onto it because I remember buying his album when he first came about and wow can’t believe what I was hearing
When the hairs stand up on your neck, you know that’s some next level lyricism
I feel what you said so much
Wretch needs to release this as a full track. Lyrics are just 🔥
U Know dat U Know dat,
was hoping it would be on his new album,I bought it and it wasn't. :-(
the new album is still fire
Depends on which you mean. YFOF wasn't what it should have been, but his latest one is mad
Chris Gilbert so true
Wretch is not just a rapper he is a lyrical master
caramel coco bless up

Pappa bless

+Hamz okay he has one shit beard line up too
egufiougvuiog
+Hamz okay 20 years later Charlie's still pressing that fire button
2 years later and your spitting on fans
Still tryna get that fly out his eye too
2022, i still sit here with a beer at the end of my workday, chuck my headphones on and just feel the vibe. The vibe never goes away with this track. I feel the exact same way i did when i first ever heard it, 7 years is a long time to vibe to some random bars on TH-cam. Im not much of a TH-cam commenter but i just wanted to show the man some love. See you in 2029
Fair enough
Tears in my eyes you know
6yrs on & it still bangs ‼️‼️
See you in 2029!!!😅
You love to see it
Still listening in 2023. Love you from Poland ❤
This never gets old. It’s goated
I wonder if wretch realised how far this would go.
I mean seriously this has become a legendary fire in the booth and it represents UK rap at its finest....
Its 2020 and the views are still going up...
I listen to it nearly every day at work.
Charlie was right to do the re-up... it makes it even better....
Just still... after all these years listening to it....... it never gets old for me......MADNESS....
Big ups from Denmark
lol I hated the re-up at first but now I love it. gold.
Cant find this on apple music? Anyway i can?? Thanks
Echoing other fam here, I hated it first, now it just makes me laugh, Charlie is just thick hype, love it.
As an American, UK rap/grime/hiphop have showed me a completely different angle of my own language. Bless these bros.
Wrecks part is so sick , you can listen like 20 times a day haha.
Soon 8 years ago and I still have not heard anything close to this. Goosebumps every single time.
The beat really brings it all together. PERFECT
Serious I always come back and still hits as hard as first time
Still. True dat
If you like Av's verse, you might like my song "thousandwordz." where i remixed it. Give it chance, you might be surprised !! 👍
Seriously
I wish Avelinos FITB was at a different time cos man it is criminally underrated cos of wretch
May 2023, still one of the greatest pieces of music on TH-cam.
Who is still listening to this masterpiece?
Eyyy
I can’t stop!! It gets me everytime
Avelino killed it
Wretch brought it back to life and killed it again
MuHu Wretch fucking murdered it
Hahaha :DD Pure evil
2023 and this still hits
Wretches verse is legendary. One of the most important moments in UK rap history
Sod UK rap history. 10,20,50 years from now. Bet people will still come back to this. This is just iconic UK. In general.
Bloody poetry.
