    I’m back bitches

  2. Why dont you all take your fucking “Commercial Music Allowed” slogan down and stop parading your Nicki Minaj gay love for all your real hip hop fans……fucking homos. That has to be the dumbest shit you guys at RapRadar have ever put as a slogan. God you guys suck so much dick now its ridiculous.

  7. donald says:

    Ok People WHO ACTUALLY FREESTYLES OFF THE TOP THAT IS FAMOUS!? NOBODY

    I mean you guys dont even understand what free styling is! it doesnt mean you have to take words off the top of the dome and just rap anymore. You can spit over someone elses beats or whatever and rhyme with wordplay. At least theres no blackberrys lol

  8. zeee says:

    @ donald. i wonder who changed the definition of free style. were you the one?

  9. mac DIESEL says:

  10. The Mak says:

    And thats why hes the G.O.A.T

  11. Unknown says:

    lol at the end, it look liked he was about to say, “damn that was sick as fuck”

    amazing rhyme scheme

  12. underground says:

    Or he’s just looking at the floor trying to think of what to say like he did in the tim westwood freestyle

  13. Mj says:

    I don’t think he was reading because he could have easily memorised that verse if he wanted to. It wasn’t that long

  14. ATG says:

    Damn! Makes me wanna quit! Lol

  15. Nymfo1 says:

    something wayne wishes he could do, rap about something interesting off the top of his head… LMAO

  16. N0T0RI0USRAMB0. says:

    GOTTA CHECK THIS DOCUMENTARY OUT

  17. WestCoast says:

    Mr. MARSHAL MATHERS ================> Legend

    FUCK YMCM

  18. Donn says:

    Yea he’s reading a verse he just wrote, Em stans stay reaching. Doesn’t make it less dope but let’s not try to oversell it. Em is the greatest though

  19. Donn says:

    Fck Eminem! He’s just reading lmao! YMCMB forever, I luv ya Wayne!

  20. KoldCase says:

    eminems freestyle > nas’ freestyle

    both 2 of the best to do it tho

  21. Mr Shady says:

    All hail King Mathers
    Shady!

  22. Celtics 9-5 says:

    EM STILL GOT IT!!!!!, the nigga wasn’t readin shit thats just how he freestyles looks right @ the ground most of the time, looks like he readin somethin but he ain’t. It’s not like Drake or soulja boy who say they “FREESTYLE” but do it off their blackberry. Freestylin ain’t how it use to be that’s for damn sure.

  23. Donn says:

    Idk, now that I look at it a second time he was looking around in different places so theres no way he could have been reading paper. But it definitely was memorized and was dope nonetheless

    Trolling imposters is back smh.

  24. Word says:

    Em stans are REACHING? Yall just reaching for something to discredit the freestyle. Why would he have to read something if he JUST wrote it? You would think he knows what the fuck he JUST wrote. Yall hating hard for no reason. Just accept it and move on. Dope shit .

  25. Word says:

    @Donn Way to retract your statement. I guess you didnt even watch the shit before making the comment huh? Cuz its obvious the first time if you watch it that hes not reading nuffin. Dude is bouncing all over the place and looking around. When did he have time to read anything, as fast as hes spittnig?

  26. Milkweed says:

    Tim lee wasn’t lying. I come to this site and see that slogan.. RR bunch of dick riders. Smh

    Nicki Minaj is terrible
    RR you lose.

  27. Black Shady says:

    This is why he’s the best…

  28. Gizzabe says:

    Best alive! Shady! Slaughter!

  29. the void says:

    where is ross’ part?

  30. Akuma says:

    bow down to Nas n Em or die biatch

  31. Rod Markie says:

    Eminem wasnt reading anything some people when they freestyle they have to look at certain things for there mind to wonder to come up with more lines….this is about the essence of hip hop if you really think they were gonna let him write some shit to tspit your stupid af if thats the case they would have got drake or wayne or ross dummies

  32. the penguin says:

    he’s looking all over the rooms stupids he’s looking down to concentrate…. ” oh I now what I’m talking about because I am a superior rap historian because I saw his eyes wonder”…

  33. joe says:

    either way no one could write or think of that except for king mathers. no one is more clever

  34. WUWEAR says:

    WE SHOULD ARGUE ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT EMINEM READ LYRICS OFF A SCRAP OF PAPER

  35. jeeeeeezzer says:

    MARSHMELLOW succ a$$, Gucci best in tha game !!!

  36. Scrilla says:

    OH SH- EMINEM STILL ALIVE?! HE BEEN HIDING LONGER THAN OSAMA.

  37. wayy says:

    eminem still the best.

  38. pienman says:

    the dude is the MAN…. indeed, killed that shit

  39. clowns says:

    Dudes lookin around the room the entire time you haters. Verse was obviously pre-written but I doubt he needed to read it from anywhere. The man has a discography of music memorized.. a couple of bars aint causin him stress to the point hes gotta go all Drake and read off his phone… Shady2.0>YOUR FAVORITE LABEL

  40. PHILLYBOI says:

    how are yall guna say he was readin.. how fuckin hard is it to remember a less then a min verse…

  41. AfricaKD says:

    EMINEM = GOOGLE

  42. Wowzer says:

    in a interview, eminem said that when he performs or raps he looks down because that’s what he used to do when he freestyled to make it easier for him

  44. The Guy says:

    in a interview, eminem said that when he performs or raps he looks down because that’s what he used to do when he freestyled to make it easier for him

    ^ THIS

    Freesyle is straight fire. Havent heard him like this in a while. Makes me anticipated for his upcoming solo album

  45. ITSDman says:

    @the guy thank you i was about to say thats he does it he looks round at the ground while hes spittin this was dope haters love to jump straight on commentsd to discredit legends

  46. onanigga says:

    Wouldnt be a true Eminem verse without a line about k-mart, vicoden and killing hoes.

  47. WhiteGuy3 says:

    eminem is a fucking BEAST plain and simple. better than any rappers in mainstream and underground. and if the greatest spits a free then its like he said in an interview you use some things youve already thought of and think of new ones. and if hes is reading it off something who cares hes still a better freestyler than anyone.
    HATE ON MY OPINION I JUST DONT GIVE A FUCK!!

  48. cool k says:

    GTFO with this YMCM b.s. no one cares whose better someone on here even wrote gucci mane you gotta be kiddin me Em always looks down when he’s free stylin enjoy the lyrics and the flow and if you wanna go listen to someone else don’t play this video then.

  49. Shadddyy says:

    I want him to keep going….

  50. 80/35 says:

    he’s explained why he looks at the ground when he raps, it stems from his early days.. it’s in that anderson cooper interview. rap radar fell off.

  51. Marshall Has Super Vision says:

    print that out on a piece of paper, walk around a 10×10′ area, and see if you can read it off the floor from ~5 1/2 feet above it… idiots.

  52. NEM says:

    When’s that album coming out Em ?!

  53. bry from boston says:

    damn slim shady, that was dope.. hes rappin about himself fucked up on opiates if you listen.. hilarious

  54. Pati says:

    Eminem dont like eye contact. <- thats why its look like he’s reading his lyrics. 🙂

  55. @KingofTeez (twitter) says:

    OVER RATED

  56. Stupid Negroes says:

    Lupe Fiasco raps off the dome…. his Westwood freestyle he freestyled off the top for 9 straight mins, so.

    But who tf cares, everyone throws the word “freestyle” around these days. Em’s always gonna deliver good ish, he’s a legend.

  57. jake says:

    not one of my favorites but it was ok…clearly not written. he was just lookin at the ground..people look at the ground a lot when they’re thinking about what to say its common knowledge…unless that short verse was written all over the ground in different spots lol

  58. Alex says:

    He looks at the ground to think of what to say. Watch him in other videos. It is pretty sad that you actually think he is reading something off the floor…

  59. rocky93 says:

    eminem is one of the greatest freestylers ever….just look up his abundance of videos and stop hatin by sayin that he wrote that shit down

  60. JigSaw3 says:

    At the end it looks like he’s gonna spit more fire

  61. Itz Yourz says:

    Wow y’all know eminem better then he know himself. On why he do what he do. Lmao, I never seen not shit like this. Any of y’all know why he wears black hats when he rhyme?

    His rhyme was decent nothing to rewind or pull up. Just spitting his regular outlandish shit….rather listen to originator of it…Redman…and his supaman luva verses. And I don’t know what’ Eminem ate last night but I’m sure he will cosign that statement.

  62. Scum bag says:

    He did not write this rhyme
    It was posted in 2010 on a battle form
    I still have the rhyme saved on my
    Old black berry so that makes me the king
    Of this HONKEY SHIT don’t hate I’m
    White and all my peeps know it but he is
    Good

  63. Scum bag says:

    He did not write this rhyme it was written
    In 2010 I still have the rhyme in a
    Old blackberry it was posted on a battle forum
    I don’t two people could write the same rhyme

  64. Kay! says:

    seriously who gives a fuck if he was “reading it” he most likely wrote it down to begin with so lets see everyone come up with the shit he does off the top of there head. Eminem is amazing at what he does and has come a long way..besides..if anyones going to read lyrics from papr it would have to be Kayne West as he is as fake as shit and loosing Aussie fans everyday because hes a complete wanker.

    i still don’t get why i keep seeing “EMINEM IS ALIVE!!!” everywhere..he came back ages ago!

  65. Kay! says:

    P.s writting comments in the box plays up…so annoying.

  66. Kay! says:

    P.P.S i thought the “freestyle” was quite awesome 🙂

  67. Gdama77 says:

    He is one of the best alive, but he surely is not the best of all time.

    NO ONE and I mean NO ONE can take that title from 2PAC, with Biggie following very close.

    Either way, that shit did look like it was bein read, but it was dope nonetheless.

  68. Notherwhiteboy says:

    Em = best there is, best there was, best there ever will be. gotta meet this dude b4 i die, damn!! King Mathers for life
