The meaning of freestyle as pertaining to rap.
This topic came to my attention after everybody jumped on Lil Wayne’s A Milli beat which really wasn’t that great to begin with. There are literally over 50 A Milli “Freestyles” by known artists, even Will Smith jumped on this beat.
Rnb artists like T-Pain, Neyo, and Chris Brown even had ones. Neyo made a damn official video for his.
These songs being called “freestyles” confuse me, a freestyle isn’t when you steal a beat from someone else and write a song to it. A freestyle is off the top of the dome and takes tremendous skill.
Here Is An Example Of A Great Freestyle-
And on a side note another thing I think of you are misunderstanding is the meaning of “Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It” by Ice Cube. Sometimes we get lost in the thumping beat and catchy chorus but the message that Cube is trying to get across is important.

It’s only been 2 years since Ice Cube’s last album, which is a much shorter gap than between previous Ice Cube albums. So it seems Ice Cube is intent on keeping a firm foothold in the rap game with this release which has been creating a buzz ever since “Gangsta Rap Made Me Do It”(watch video here) was released back in January. Ice Cube said he was going to come really political and hardcore on this album. Did he stick by what he said?
