Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!
The best things in life are free, but hopping on Hov's press conference stage uninvited is gon cost cha. Whatcha did was wrong! ⎯B.Dot
Decked out in Rosewood, Kanye, Pusha T, Big Sean, CyHi Da Prynce and Common stole the show this evening during their cypher session along with Preemo on the ones and twos. G.O.O.D. job fellas.
Break: Here come the drums.

DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Whew! *wipes sweat from forehead* Them boys G.O.O.D.!! They all wrecked this!
This was pretty good right here. I forgot that this shit even came on tonight. Oh well I’m sure it was 90% shit anyway.
I hope you guys realize that I cyphers are pre-written….
they need to make a GOOD music album like em did for shady records!
Push all day.
pusha done the best
big sean was good
common mediocre
kanye mediocre

Some lines were used again, not the whole thing, either way, good music was the highlight of that whack ass award show.
wait the bet movie awards were tonight? seriously? they still put those on? bring back the source awards.. i want some randoms to get stabbed again..
Why doesnt anyone actually freestyle? Eminem didnt.. Kanye sounded like he did in the beginning… Pusha defo wrote his.. then i turned it off.. didnt care for the others.
No way you could hate on this… Big Sean went IN.
Royce’s freestyle was the best this year.
The line about Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey was ruthless. 100% ruthless.
time 2 hate on the cypher tht killed performances
@ herbsaac
“Why doesn’t freestyle anymore?”
CUZ THEY CAN’T!!!! THAT’S WHY THESE NIGGAS IS USIN’ BLACKBERRYS, TELEPROMPTERS, AND GOD KNOWS WUT ELSE TO SPIT “FREESTYLES”!!!! HA!!!! THAT’S WACK!!! I’LL ALWAYS RESPECT NIGGAS WHO BE SPITTIN’ OFF TOP!!!! REAL FREESTYLES!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Smell tha hate? G.O.O.D Music is tha best right now. Period.
Hm. I think last years Cypher was better, but this was okay too. Big Sean the next big thing coming out Detroit. Make friends with Shady my nigga, it’ll only help
this was dope but can some1 tell me consequence status with good music i saw an interview wiyh glc and he said he was still down but not signed
well now there is no absolutly reason 2 watch the bet awards lol
wtf A cypher can be written or off the top the hell are ya’ll on it doesn’t fucking matter the Cypher is about the rhyme not where it came from unless you biting smh anyway….everybody in this went completely in and i’m definitely looking forward to Kanye album if he’s spitting like this again
GOOD job indeed
I guess yall niggas dont really know what Freestyles are.
Its a verse thats FREE of STYLE, meaning its usually random ass shit you most likely wrote down and recall from your memory. No topic, just “Im the shit” type rap to demonstrate your lyrical ability. Nobody ever said a freestyle was off the top. They would just say “Spit off the top”
big sean went in
G.o.o.D Music they the best of the night
“How to Rap: Did you mainly write a lot or freestyle a lot?
Big Daddy Kane: Okay… what do you mean by “freestyle”?
How to Rap: Improvised, rather than written down on paper…
Big Daddy Kane: I always wrote things down on paper… but see that term “freestyle” is like a new term, because in the ‘80s when we said we wrote a freestyle rap that meant that it was a rhyme that you wrote that was free of style, meaning that it’s not a subject matter – it’s not a story about a woman, it’s not a story about poverty, it’s basically a rhyme just bragging about yourself, so it’s basically free of style. That’s really what a freestyle is.”
RESEARCH
You know, off the top of the head, we just called that off the dome, when you don’t write it and just say whatever comes to mind. But freestyle is really a written rhyme. Has anybody ever told you that before?
Forgot that part
@ Word @ Black McJagger
ASK ANY NIGGA FROM THE ’90′S WUT A FREESTYLE IS AND THEY WILL NEVER SAY A FREESTYLE IS WRITTEN!!!! I’M FROM THE GOLDEN ERA, SO TO ME A FREESTYLE IS NOT WRITTEN!!!! U MIGHT AS WELL SAY SONGS FROM ALBUMS ARE “FREESTYLES” CUZ THEY’RE WRITTEN, THEY’RE SHOWIN’ LYRICAL ABILITY, AND THEY SPITTIN’ RANDOM SHIT!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
@mac DIESEL
Im just going by Big Daddy Kanes definition that I posted up top. Nobody really spits off the top these days, come on now. Maybe somewhere in them “Freestyles” theres some improve though.
@Word thank fuckin u for that one.. who the fuck cares if shit is off the top of the head or not BIG Hov and even Lil Wayne memorized lyrics in their head no paper ever so technically since it wasn’t written does that make a difference. NO. Ain’t no extra paper in spittin shit off the top of your head! That’s the problem nowadays people care about the goofiest shit!!!
@ Word
I GET WUT U AND KANE SAYIN’ BUT WHEN U SAY “FREESTYLE” MAJORITY OF PEOPLE THINK “OFF THE TOP”!!!! AND IT’S A SHAME THAT ALOT OF THESE NEW CATS CAN’T SPIT OFF TOP!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
@ Mac
Dog Biggie, Big L, Nas, Jay-Z, Eminem etc…all have “freestyles” with written verses one of Ems most popular freestyles on the wake up show is a written verse does this in anyway take away from the fact that these guys are some of the greatest ever no
eminem cypher > kanye west cypher
@ Sc_R
WUT THE FUCK DOES THIS TOPIC HAVE TO DO WIT “EXTRA PAPER”??? U GOOFY FUCK!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
@Word
Thank God somebody here knows what they’re talking about….anybody who thinks there’s some unwritten rule that you have go off the top when you’re in a Cypher doesn’t know much about hip-hop and probably should just shut to fuck up before they embarrass themselves any further.
in last year Cypher Eminem, Mos, and Black Thought all spit writtens Black verse was even on the roots last album and Black is top 10 c’mon now written or off the top what matters is the rhyme are you dope or are you not that is what the cypher is about
Wow, reading a lot of these comments really makes me sad for hip-hop, most of you guys are really too uninformed in this subject to be making comments on a this blog. If you don’t know what the true definition of a freestyle or cypher is then please do a little research.
@ Black mcJagger
IT DOESN’T TAKE AWAY THEIR GREATNESS!!!! BUT I’LL ALWAYS GIVE MORE RESPECT TO AN MC WHO CAN SPIT OFF TOP OPPOSED TO A NIGGA WHO WRITES FREESTYLES !!!! THAT’S JUST ME!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Cyhi from the dec doin it up! Check his shit out. Its a reason Kanye signed dude.
“Why doesnt anyone actually freestyle?”
Because not many can do it. Its an art in itself. Budden,1 of the nicest cats out,admits that hes not even good off the dome. So just because a cat cant go off the top doesnt automatically mean their garbage. Truthfully,if your not on a Supernatural(youtube him) type level of goin off the top,I dont wanna hear it.
And Common ripped this as usual.
at the end of the day Opinions Are Like Asshole…WHO GIVES A SHIT!
“stole the show this evening during their cypher session.” – Big Homie
Nigga what tha fuck is wrong with you? Listen to these rhyme weak ass mainstream rhymes! They ain’t stole shit! The just more popular plus they was given more time!
Go back and listen to Royce Da 5’9′s verse! He fuckin raped & murdered all these niggaz!
If that youtube version goes down you can continue to watch the clip in HD here: http://youraudiofix.com/2010/10/12/kanye-west-pusha-t-big-sean-cyhi-da-prynce-common-bet-hip-hop-awards-cypher/
imma go ahead and say big sean had the wildest verse. cyhi da prince surprised me the most and pusha put on for his city. va, 757 stand up
I can’t speak for the rest of them but I know common can go off the top. He kicks it for like 5 min at every show in seen him at here in LA.
people seem to be missing what really is important here. Y’all need to hop on CyHi, best thing outta the ATL since Andre.
Best Cyphers btw-
1.Royce
2.CyHi
3.Run
4.Diggy (kid went in)
5. Bones
Worst Cypher
-Wiz Khalifa-
^^^How you gonna recycle a verse? weak.
