I agree with all of the above. None of the established artists freestyle anymore. It's risky, If they are like me sometimes it's hot and sometimes it's not. So why risk it? A lot of people think freestyling is a judge of the talent, but it is actually a talent in it's self. For someone to make up a rap song THAT MAKES SENSE 5 RHYMES totally spontaneous, is talent. To actually add styles and punches like Mos Def is fucking amazing!

Did anyone catch him and wordsworth standing on the ledge going back and forth? that shit was amazing. And they stayed on subject.

I throw written shit in my freestyle to get me started to. Whenever I go blank, I just spit something pre written to start it back up. I got a bunch of songs where I just freestyled the whole fuckin thing. (5-8mins). it wasn't top notch Legend shit bu tit was fun.
