~~THE COMMENT EVERYONE HAS BEEN WAITING FOR SINCE 2012~~ THE BEAT IS SAMPLED FROM THE INTRO OF: Robert Glasper Experiment - Letter To Hermione (Feat. Bilal) !!!! LIKE THIS SO EVERYONE CAN SEE LITERALLY DISCOVERED THIS TRACK BY ROBERT TODAY IF YOU CAN'T TELL BY THE ALL CAPS IM A BIT HYPE RIGHT NOW ABOUT THIS DISCOVERY
Big L Rest In Peace '1974/1999 your name i was just reminiscing listening to big l a couple days ago. I was literally listening to him while looking at his autopsy wishing i could thank him for inspiring me.
It don't matter if it was a freestyle or not this kid is dope! The average rapper could not even put it together this well! The man is killing the game right now!
Year 7 of looking for this instrumental. It’s a sample of letter to Hermione by Robert glasper, but the beat is non existent. Let’s keep searching though
Kendrick's flow has his lines follow close after each other quickly. For any human being to be able to think of words that quickly off the top of they heads are damn near close to the intellectual as a robot
When a dj turns a random beat on and you spit a verse it is a freestyle u have never rehearsed to the beat and you've have to make the verse go with the beat. It takes skill and there's also freestyling off the top both are dope much respect to all artist who can write hot enough to be recognized on this type of platform.
Confirmed: he's rapping County Building Blues and m.A.A.d City word-for-word. He surely had written the raps before going into the studio, and recorded them for the album within a few months of this session. But lots/most of the guys on Westwood aren't actually freestyling.
i dont understand all you haters…. kendrick is the most lyrical mc to come out in a minute…. doesn't rap about crack, and balling like every other rapper has substance
+Jordan Gregorn +Jordan Gregorn it probably was off the dome since this was in June 2012 and Mad City dropped October 2012. A lot of freestyles I've seen has been put into a song later on
+Jordan Gregorn I don't think you know what a freestyle is. Kids these days think freestyles are 100% of the top, but they're not. Basically what most rappers do is throw in a couple bars from a song and try to freestyle around it. I'd prefer they do it this way because it would be brutal to see most rappers spit 100% off the top haha and I guarantee you have never even seen a video where everything was legit off the top haha soo sshhh
It was realeased befor* he had probebly written this a couple of mounths before this with kendricks clear attention to detail and preperation before every album! he has a long creative proccess
funny how people expect rappers to rap adlib without any premeditation whatsoever in the name of freestyle. its possible and its beautiful if the rapper can do it well. but 99.999 percent of all freestyles have at least been premeditated someway somehow. the closest I've seen was kendricks Halloween freestyle where he tells people to throw random words for him to rap with.
Lol tired of these kids on here saying "This is not off the dome, this is not a freestyle." Of course this isn't off the dome, however that's not what qualifies a verse a freestyle. Search a Big L freestyle, one of the greats. Those freestyles are writtens yet he's hailed as a great freestyler. You can say the same for BIG, Pac, Pun, all have great freestyles hailed by many yet, they're writtens. So rest that nonsense saying it has to be off the top, most of you guys are uneducated in hip-hop anyway.
this is so real. i can relate on these verses so hard. especially the killing and the tape recording verse. growing up on the streets. these verses get to me. respect for kendrick.
Kendrick made this freestyle before he put it on Maad city, he most likely rote it down and was planning to pit on the album but we wasn't doing a free flow freestyle. Kendrick is one of the best rappers of this generation, can't wait for another album

My life is a threat Good kid, m.A.A.d. city Life or death, is you with me? [Outro] Tim Westwood, what's up
Pa dark You would be wrong. A lot of the Eminem freestyles you hear are either pre-written or pre-thought. He used to do some freestyles off the dome in rap battles before he was Eminem, but even in rap battles guys will use material that they had already came up with. Snoop is a great off the dome rapper, but most people that can are not that famous.
truth be honest the freestyle or "county blues" lyrics with the jazz beat production he styled on made me feel like a boyz in the hood setting when i close my eyes. who cares if its written or freestyled, musics music its suppose to take you to a place and inner psyche of the artist. close your eyes and watch with your ears.
Been looking for years man. I watched this video the day it came out. No luck. This does sound very similar to “letter to Hermione” by Robert Glasper, but it’s not the instrumental at all, probably some kind of sample mix. Beat is insane but impossible to find.
BDUB TV you’re right on the “Letter to Hermione” bit. The sampled the drums from the intro of that. I just have to find the horn sample, but they were going through SO MANY jazz samples at that time I bet since they were starting on ideas for TPAB
Kendrick Lamar a different level to anybody, if you'd of said then he would be the best ever I'd of said the potential is there ..... Now 2020 he's been the best since 2015
Kendrick Lamar the realist rapper. Hes got what none of the other rappers have now, and thats heart while rapping, thats why PAC and BIGGIE are legends n well known,
M.A.A.D city came out October of that year...so it's very possible it was written in part before that or even that it was mostly or partially of the top of his head. Who knows, still dope.
Justin rensel what you are saying is an absolute, "We do know." Which if you look at it is ignorant in a way and partially baseless. If you read my entire comment you will see that I am stating that the song, from which the lyrics to his performance on the Westwood show, came out later in the year after the performance happened and I did say that it is possible and I'd even go as far to say that it is likely that it was written before the show due to the fact that it is very well composed and with out going back and watching the performance I can say that it is basically word for word the verse to his song. While your comment just states that it was "obviously" written before hand but present no type of evidence or reasoning to back up your statement. Just remember that the absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence my friend. Enjoy your weekend. :)
believe me ive heard good rap, no need to tell me what ive heard and havent heard.. kendrick is a good as it gets, lyrics, flow, freestyle capabilities and just the plain fact that he is down to earth and not fake or heading any where near mainstream..
Rolling in a broken mitsubishi with no AC and a couple stolen tvs and a seatbelt for my safety. He just paints a picture while still managing to murder a fucking beat. Kendrick is the man.
People who think rappers freestyle off the dome then just remember it bar for bar and record a song with that obviously just have no common sense. Think about it for a second and you'll see how ludicrous that would be.
Freestyle means you don't have to speak about a certain subject. It's whatever comes to your head. It doesn't even have to rhyme, as long as it has a good flow. Most rappers use verses from their songs inside their freestyles and i think that's pretty cool.
This is a freestyle, he later turned it in to County Building Blues and then m.A.A.d city. This freestyle came out almost a year before his debut album released.
People need to understand that FREESTYLE isn't just going off the top. And most artist these days don't go off the top. The ones that do aren't mainstream.
glaze thedounut the fact that you call someone ignorant over a topic as inconsequential as this is ignorant unto itself. This came out four months before the album, meaning he would have undoubtedly been in the midst of producing songs like maad city by that point. But regardless, freestyle does not mean off the dome. Freestyling just means that the artist doesn't know what beat they're going to be matching their predetermined lyrics to.
Kendrick is my favorite because I love his songs he's very humble and he kills most of his freestyles. That's why kendrick is my favorite rapper why else would he be?
This was not a Freestyle off da dome, look at his body language when he was spitting. There is a big misconception when it comes to Freestyle and off da dome Freestyle. Lyricist's like kendrick probably have thousands of verses that they have written and memorized that the public aint heard and so they spit em as "Freestyles"
Most freestyles are "pre-written" it does not mean their fake it just means he is freely spitting and at the time thought back to what he wrote down and spit it.
Kendrick is the future. Definitely going to be down as one of the greatest ever.
He raps like he's preaching. Love it.
this aged well
God damn it Bobby
You said it and it happened
I'm watching this in the future
I've known it since he first dropped GKMC. The talent level from the beginning was unbelievable
You made it for him with this comment haha
Dude has the potential of being the greatest rapper alive...a real lyricist
touche
You should buy a lottery ticket
You knew it!
Am I going to be a millionaire in 10 years?
Everybody here acting liike you had to be Nostradamus to see that Kendrick was special from the start. He broke through with OD and Section 80 when he was still just a kid, that was better than anybody that was out already at that time.
speaks volumes to kendrick's skill that he could bend the maad city verse to this beat and still kill this
this was just pure Art, straight melody, no beat, and K-Dot just made his own flow and ran with it
1st verse County Building Blues
2nd verse m.A.A.D city
This was before he dropped the album
Thanks bro
Fax
Freestyles never off the top
Yeah ! He can't freestyle
@@TheMrE1974 he probably can but he doesn’t want to trip up coz it’s part of his rollout
kendricks songs are the very definition of what rap should be
Did this man just freestyle about the 1992 LA Riots?
It’s county building blues that song lit he freestyle this in his studio then changed the flow here
@@darinterry1986 honestly sounds way better on this beat and flow

Its out of this world
Your a goat for this no cap
Glad i’m not the only one searching hahah
Ironically I’m looking for this beat and went in the comments to see if somebody blessed us. 😂🤦🏾♂️
@@sommerville27Ggs bruh, ggs.
Freestyle: Verse without a hook whether its prewritten or off the top
Thank you for sayin it. Do people really think all freestyle is off the dome
Nope
Johan Friedel it was but not now these days
Yes people get off the dome & freestyle confused
THANK YOU !
Kendrick's flow has his lines follow close after each other quickly. For any human being to be able to think of words that quickly off the top of they heads are damn near close to the intellectual as a robot
kendrick is never basic, all of his lyrics are so deep....i love that shit
When a dj turns a random beat on and you spit a verse it is a freestyle u have never rehearsed to the beat and you've have to make the verse go with the beat. It takes skill and there's also freestyling off the top both are dope much respect to all artist who can write hot enough to be recognized on this type of platform.
i hate when they edit art/censor certain words.
art cannot be censored.
that is all.
ong
And also i believe when i say this i represent a majority of rap listeners, kendrick is definetly undeniably one of the greatest to ever spit
After he was done the mic was drenched in saliva
😂😂
😂😂
Kinda looks like he got a little emotional at the end and had to stop....shit was getting pretty fucking heavy at the end there.
The dopest rapper of new school rap. Period.
Oh hell nah I haven't forgotten them!
Dyvon Shipp Eminem isn't new school rap, and hopsin definitely isn't anywhere near the dopest mc right now.
Eminent is shit now lol and hopsin is decent but on on kendricks level..
Nicolas Johnsen now he is the dopest mc in the universe now hope u stomach the truth n don't u ever compare him to hopsin but eminem yh he is real .ps
The DJ looks like J. Cole
That's ali.
Dat flow tho.
Confirmed: he's rapping County Building Blues and m.A.A.d City word-for-word. He surely had written the raps before going into the studio, and recorded them for the album within a few months of this session. But lots/most of the guys on Westwood aren't actually freestyling.
I am not so sure if that's the case with Smokepurrpp's freestyle
and so what?
i dont understand all you haters…. kendrick is the most lyrical mc to come out in a minute…. doesn't rap about crack, and balling like every other rapper has substance
2024 he's still the greatest
This aint a freestyle, it was fire tho
A freestyle is a song without chorus. Technically it is a freestyle but I see where you're coming from.
+Deon Singh No thats a verse, a freestyle is off the dome. He was spitin a verse for half of it listen to M.A.A.D city

The first part is County Building Blues
County Building Blues, MAAD City
trapiac County Building Blues? I thought that was m.A.A.d City.

For all the people who don't know, the MAAD CITY album came out about 4 months after this. He didn't copy this freestyle.

What is amazing is how he took that verse and made it flow to a completely different beat.
Okay so it's a lonnie liston- astral travel sample on the body
and letter to hermione by Robert glasper on the drums

it's serious when Kendrick's hood on
WHAT BEAT IS THIS!!!!??
Kendrick has a grasp of lyrics and rhythm that no other artist can top
1:30 I think hes casting a spell
Verse 1]
Rollin’ in a broken Mitsubishi with no AC
And a couple stolen TV’s and a seatbelt for my safety
Play the passenger, I think it’s five years after eighty-
Seven, do that math, 92, don’t you be lazy
I’m looking out the window, notice all the essentials
Of a block party that stopped for a second
Then it rekindled like the flame from a trick candle
Everybody got dental insurance, ‘cause we bout to floss
You get the couch I sent you?
I heard that from a block away, probably had credentials
Of a scholar, but should not today
Them Dayton spokes was his to take
Refrigerators, barbecue pits, and Jordan kicks
They did invasions while helicopters recorded it
Hello, my Mr. Myiagi, I want them Kenwood Woofers
Say that you got me
If not, I’ll dig in your drawer for it
The swap meet was the bullseye like a Taurus is
Murder was the melody, you should know what the chorus is
You really telling me we can just get some more of it if we run out?
He said “Lil nigga, today the poor is rich”
Don't tell your mom that you seen a molotov bomb
And if she asks, just know that you have to lie
And son, don’t forget:
You from Compton
[Verse 2]
Brace yourself, I take you on a trip down memory lane
This is not a rap on how I’m slinging brick and moving cane
Cul de sac and plenty Cognac in major pain
Not the drill sergeant, but the stress that’s weighing on your brain
It was me, O-Boog and Yaya
Lucky, ride down Rosecrans
Ugly, waving yo hand out the window, brace yourself, uh
Warriors and Conans
Euphoria can slow dance
Society, the driver seat, the first one to get killed
Light skinned nigga with his brains blown out
At the same burger stand where (mmm) hang out
Now this is not a tape recorder saying that he did it
But ever since that day, I was looking at him different
That was back when I was nine
Joey packed a nine
Pakistan on every porch, it’s fine
We adapt to crime
Pack a van with four guns at a time
Sliding door, fuck is up?
Fucking shooting forth, if you ain't walking up, you fucking punk
Picking up the fucking pump
Picking off you suckers, suck a dick
Die a sucker punch, a ball of bullets coming from
AK’s, AR’s, Aye y’all; duck
That’s what Mama said when we was eatin’ that free lunch
Aw man, god damn, all hell broke loose
You killed my cousin back in ‘94, fuck yo truce
Now crawl yo head in that noose
You wind up dead on the news
And no peace treaties just peace and BG’s appearing to prove
Bodies on top of bodies, IV’s on top of IV’s
Obviously the coroner between the sheets like the Isleys
When you hop on that trolly, your color’s correct
Make sure each corporate knows they’ll be calling your mother collect
Now, what you expect?
My life is a threat
Good kid, m.A.A.d. city
Life or death, is you with me?
[Outro]
Tim Westwood, what's up
Stand up if you here to witness the legend it's 2023
Fire 🔥 this guy never misses
This was a freestyle, m.a.a.d city was dropped 10 months after this interview.
So he did the same exact freestyle on Funk MasterFlex? Even thoo this isnt a freestyle its still a hell of a good written.

a freestyle is now a free verse, something you pull out yo pocket.. what your thinking of is "off the top"
This was not a Freestyle off da dome, look at his body language when he was spitting. There is a big misconception when it comes to Freestyle and off da dome Freestyle. Lyricist's like kendrick probably have thousands of verses that they have written and memorized that the public aint heard and so they spit em as "Freestyles"
what is this beat? shit is fire
Kendrick is a beast
one of the best freestyles ever
What is this beat, i been waiting for like a year now
im about to remake it once i find the drum sample..ive already found the sax
Craig Hamilton drum sample is from letter to Hermione by Robert glasper
Craig Hamilton
Whats the sax sample ??
pretty good considering westwood gave him a shitty ass beat to use
Nicest emcee out right now.
Most freestyles are "pre-written" it does not mean their fake it just means he is freely spitting and at the time thought back to what he wrote down and spit it.
this is just m.a.a.d city verse
r u dumb?
wtf im disappointed... the 2nd verse was from his song maad city. wasn't even a freestyle.. not sure about the first tho
this was released befor good kid mad city was even out
ah ok.
Chris Oyarzabal that's what one extra is you give a preview of your album and another verse freestyle or not
First verse is from the song County Building Blues which is a bonus track on good kid, m.A.A.d city.
Both were written.
kendrick lamar's freestyle can easily made into a song and put on an album
This freestyle was tight af, MillionWebStars brought me here
