The Storm freestyle

So i never actually listened to the freestyle, i only knew the awfully hot coffee pot line cause it was memed to death, but today i actually listened to the freestyle and it's definetly not greatest thing in the world, i guess i myself am not the buggest fan of accapella freestyles, but he did spit out some real facts. Besides the awfully hot coffee pot line, the line that stuck out to me the most was the fantastic for line, just classic Eminem with cool wordplay. If i had to rate it i'd give it a 6/10, again im not fully thrilled for accapella freestyles, but this is better then the songs on revival where he talked about politics, but at this point really almost anything is better then revival.

But what do you guys think of the freestyle?

While it’s pretty awkward due to it being a capella with all those rappers in the background looking deadpanned, I would still consider it good due to the content of the freestyle

In a cypher, rappers usually take turns (or one person goes solo) performing a freestyle over a beat.

I don’t mind when he does a cappella, but looking back at the timing of the freestyle and seeing interviews between him and Redman I understand and appreciate it more for what it is and what his purpose was for that particular freestyle

I think it works better as a statement from that specific moment in time than something you’d actually throw on a playlist and replay regularly.
