Appreciate y’all truly (again) And since you guys were asking about other music from a lot of us, I’d be more than glad to put together a playlist of the guys for y’all to check out - let me know 🫡
30:00 CTC's verse is popular because of the amount of references he makes to competitive pokemon and his personality, also because he doesn't drop music due to being such a perfectionist. He has the most views in the 2016 Pokemon cypher and it showed when a channel made separate verses for each person. And damn near every line is a reference to something related to his friends, Pokemon, or pop culture. Not only that, it's either a double or triple entendre with each line (not so much with this one tho) or calls back to other cyphers ("In the cut", "Officer Jenny want me, I curve") And Shofu, while updating everyone about the cypher, said that CTC was a crowd favorite. And it's been true since 2013.
Guy with the dreads at 19:25 is BlackLynk, same guy that was in the furry suit in the 2019 verse. He had my fave verse in both cyphers, dude is a beast! 🔥🔥insane punch lines and flow
Mostly they're just people from the same community. If Shofu knows you or gets to know you and fucks with you and your music, you've got a chance of getting on there. Next to that though, they've done a contest twice now for the fans to get on the Cypher too. In 2019 the winner was BlackLynk (the guy in the furry suit) and he's become part of the group ever since. This time the winner was Lime King (the screaming guy with the long hair). I have a feeling he's gonna stick around too.
It's so nice to see the people who watch this and are rap fans first and foremost all appreciate the dark section so much, they recognize the raw rap talent in that part
Most of the cypher participants are close friends to each other, but there was actually a contest to join in! The winner was Lime King, the one at 7:30 or so. He's a really fun one. In terms of rap careers, I know PE$O PETE is dropping an album next week, he's got a lot of fun songs in general. Mainly a nerdcore rapper in a way that tends to mix fiction and reality. Kezura has a strong backlog, and I think Ty Wild (from the Dark section) is working on an album? Admittedly he doesn't drop often. Blacklynk (from the dark section too) has some great music too! Also love seeing reactions to Jeesh (Bow tie), his voice tends to surprise people a lot haha. He's really good, definitely check his music out.
It's funny you mention 2025, boys. Because Shofu and the gang do indeed have another cypher coming in what I believe to be next year. Likely early 2025. Everybody in order on this cypher: Fighting: G.Yee JWittz Shofu The Beatdown Ghost: Shofu Kezura Lime King Water: Tanukes OmarCameUp Scoot Dark: Anonymuz Ty Wild Black Lynk Dragon: Token Black Pe$o Pete Jeesh Elite 4:Matt Houston, CTC, Shofu, VI Seconds
"It go from EVs to IVs, give a fuck about your training" is easily one of the coldest bars in the entire cypher. EVs = Eevee (the cute pokemon) and EV (Effort Values, which are earned through training to make your pokemon stronger) IVs = IV drips (For people in hospital) and IV (Individual Values, the pokemon games version of the "natural talent" your pokemon is born with) "It go from EVs (cute shit - like Eevee/hard work - with all the EVs you've been earning) to IVs (IV drips - you getting hospitalised which is less cute/sheer class - what you'd be up against if you faced him) give a fuck about your training (because no amount of EVs earned can put you on his level and you'll be hospitalised for trying).
EV is "effort value", IV is "individual value". These things determine how high each stat of the individual pokemon is. IVs are the genetics, EVs are the training!
VISECSSSSSSSSS Hey this was an absolute BANGER reaction! It was so awesome watching you guys have so much fun with this and catching the bars you knew, so they hit that much harder. This was seriously one of my favorite reactions to this cypher so far. I want to see you guys react the first time to some of these verses again 😂😂😂
There's so many intricate bars and double entendres in everyone's verses. For example, Shizzy's "From EVs to IVs, give a fuck about your training" can be a double off of Eevee (the Pokémon you mentioned), but also... EVs (Effort Values) are extra stat points you can gain by training against certain pokemon, and IVs (Individual Values) are basically extra stat buffs that a Pokémon is basically born with... and they can't be improved. But you guys should check out Pokémon Cypher 2016 as well. Shizzy is in that one too. The production value isn't on the same level as this one, but the bars are still crazyyyy and there's a decent amount of the same rappers you've seen on this one and the 2019 cypher.
Shizzy's on most of em. There are 6 of these. Though the first 2 (2011 and 2012) are just Shofu and Scoot (Scoot's the guy in the water). The first full Cypher was 2013, then 2016, then they also did a Super Smash Bro's Cypher in 2018 and then you have to 2 you've reacted too.
VI Seconds has been doin the cyphers since the first big one in 2013 he goes way back with all these dudes. he and shofu have been boys for forever. you should def check out the 2013 and 2016 cyphers if you want some history on em
6 seconds and shofu (cypher creator) are long time friends, so yes he’s in every one. They’ve been rapping together for over a decade, and it’s all on Shofus channel
You have discovered one of the greats in this video: Ty Wild. Anything he makes is worth listening to. His pen is NASTY. And yes i’m doing splits on it
I'm beyond happy to see y'all react to this to close out 2024. All of these dudes have been dropping fire cyphers for many years and it's dope to see them evolve and become artists that could sit above some of the most popular artists in the world. They deserve their shine. Just being able to articulate multiple layers of Pokemon/items/skills/attack/game mechanics etc. into a bar takes hard work. The fact that they went above this time and categorized them into Pokemon types and fit them together so well is crazy. That takes so much planning and strategy along with getting everyone together to film it all. Minikon is a goated director for being able to create something so amazing. I didn't know about Jeesh (bow tie) or Ty Wild (second artist on boom bap) until this cypher. For 2019 I learned about Black Lynk/Dedboi Kezura/Chris Patrick and it's amazing to be exposed to dope new artists that can put in this amount of work. I would honestly be comfortable saying the 2019 Pokemon Cypher changed the entire cypher game. Even bigger industries have switched up their beats between verses more often. Merry Christmas to y'all Beers & Bars team. Thanks for giving these artists some honest opinions and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Would love to see reactions to the older cyphers in 2025 :) EDIT: I knew you guys would love the Dark/boom bap section.
Man they ALL rappers and are FIRE man there just a part of nerdcore but there music is fire and other members in the community that are CRAZY that you need to check out like ham sandwich and daddyphatsnaps he literally doesn’t miss every single one of his songs is FIRE promise and he just recently dropped the best cypher this year to
Hello from France🇫🇷😉, please can you react " que l'aube est belle ( live visio )” from the Mylène Farmer channel.Thank you🙏. believe me you won't regret it
so most of if not all of them are homies to some extent, but some of the names in the last couple cyphers came from a contest they held for both. The contest winners on 2019 were blacklynk and chris patrick. For 2024 it was Lime King (DIGLET DIG) and Ty Wild (the 2nd guy in the dark section) meme'd in the contest but he's well known among the community and obviously very talented.
Would you guys be willing to check out some Michael jackson? There's a specific video that includes Slash from guns and roses as the main guitar as well as the rest of the g&r band excluding Axel of course lol. The song title is "Give Into Me" and the video os incredible!! I hope you'll check it out 🙏
Appreciate y’all truly (again)
And since you guys were asking about other music from a lot of us, I’d be more than glad to put together a playlist of the guys for y’all to check out - let me know 🫡
me personally i'd be more glad if you put out more music
Matt gotta let you know your 2016 verse is probably the single best pkmncypher verse of all time
@@TheSilentZebra64All time top 5 for me. He really went crazy on that.
@@Spitfiregames for sure all time leader contender from any rapper
That'd be dope!!!! 🔥🍻
24:58 jeesh, he got a good ammount of music 🔥 very florida style
18:20 Ty Wild, if you haven't heard of him, you gotta give bro a look!
18:20 Ty Wild - For sure check him out
30:00 CTC's verse is popular because of the amount of references he makes to competitive pokemon and his personality, also because he doesn't drop music due to being such a perfectionist.

And Shofu, while updating everyone about the cypher, said that CTC was a crowd favorite. And it's been true since 2013.
I HAVE BEEN REFRESHING UR PAGE EVERY DAY TO SEE IF THIS DROPPED LETS GOOOO
Guy with the dreads at 19:25 is BlackLynk, same guy that was in the furry suit in the 2019 verse. He had my fave verse in both cyphers, dude is a beast! 🔥🔥insane punch lines and flow

The man with the bowtie is Jeesh, he can throw you for a loop if you aren't careful.
It's so nice to see the people who watch this and are rap fans first and foremost all appreciate the dark section so much, they recognize the raw rap talent in that part
LFG! Been patiently waiting for this one after you guys did the 2019 Pokemon cypher reaction 🔥
They all write their own verses in this one, Six is in all of them. And all of them except for JWittz maybe have music out!!
You guys went crazy for Ty Wild but that guy had the most insane pokemon related schemes in this imo, his verse is lyrically the best for me
Pokemon cypher 2013 and Pokemon cypher 2016 are the other two cyphers from these guys, VI seconds is on those as well
Most of the cypher participants are close friends to each other, but there was actually a contest to join in! The winner was Lime King, the one at 7:30 or so. He's a really fun one.

Also love seeing reactions to Jeesh (Bow tie), his voice tends to surprise people a lot haha. He's really good, definitely check his music out.
Anonymuz also has an album with a track featuring Denzel Curry titled "No Threat", his music is actually so fire.
Didn't know Tommy Egan and Ice Cube had a channel but i'm here for it.
It's funny you mention 2025, boys. Because Shofu and the gang do indeed have another cypher coming in what I believe to be next year. Likely early 2025.
Everybody in order on this cypher:
Fighting:
G.Yee

Everyone that rapped is written in order in the description. Glad you guys fucked with it
"It go from EVs to IVs, give a fuck about your training" is easily one of the coldest bars in the entire cypher.
EVs = Eevee (the cute pokemon) and EV (Effort Values, which are earned through training to make your pokemon stronger)
IVs = IV drips (For people in hospital) and IV (Individual Values, the pokemon games version of the "natural talent" your pokemon is born with)
"It go from EVs (cute shit - like Eevee/hard work - with all the EVs you've been earning) to IVs (IV drips - you getting hospitalised which is less cute/sheer class - what you'd be up against if you faced him) give a fuck about your training (because no amount of EVs earned can put you on his level and you'll be hospitalised for trying).
🔥🍻
EV is "effort value", IV is "individual value". These things determine how high each stat of the individual pokemon is. IVs are the genetics, EVs are the training!
This was your early Christmas present to me, thanks guys glad y’all enjoyed it!! 🔥🔥
also Jeesh is the guy with the bow tie
VISECSSSSSSSSS

This was seriously one of my favorite reactions to this cypher so far. I want to see you guys react the first time to some of these verses again 😂😂😂
Im obsessed with watching reactions to this cypher mostly because of Lime King. Dude is an absolute menace.

Can't wait for VI to drop Dead Love Birds Don't Sing, he has been working on it for a while so I'm sure its gonna be 🔥🔥🔥
VI Seconds has been doin the cyphers since the first big one in 2013 he goes way back with all these dudes. he and shofu have been boys for forever. you should def check out the 2013 and 2016 cyphers if you want some history on em
6 seconds and shofu (cypher creator) are long time friends, so yes he’s in every one. They’ve been rapping together for over a decade, and it’s all on Shofus channel
If want to catch Ty Wild in his element, Twilight by Shwabadi feat Ty Wild and Yayu. Older song but all 3 lyrically on point
You have discovered one of the greats in this video: Ty Wild. Anything he makes is worth listening to. His pen is NASTY. And yes i’m doing splits on it
they have a contest to see if anyone new makes the new cypher, Lime King was the new addition this year. yes VI Seconds is on everyone.
