I rock bells with L, done tours with Run
I did this for fun, years before Pun
and y'all ask how many guns i hold,
i'm like 3, i nickname them De La Soul,
Plug One, Plug Two, Plug Three
Leave Potholes in your chest, R-I-P.

21 views? this is what is wrong with Hip Hop. 541 people will check and reply to a TI thread but nobody seems interested in a Hip Hop legend dropping knowledge and a dope freestyle...

You know, as many classics as E-Double has produced, he's totally overrated as an MC. The majority of his similes are weak and cliched. And if that excerpt you printed is the kind of ryhme he spouted in that freestyle, I can do wothout listening to it thanks. Hearing Erick Sermon resort to gun talk is always embarrassing - a bit like watching your dad dance when he's drunk and trying to impress the younger generation.

On the other hand, you're right es-jay - as much as I personally dislike Sermon, it's more of a shame that half the people on the board probably don't even know who he is.

Ha ha, you're a funny dude.

I agree also about Eric Sermon as an MC --> he's just like Quik, overrated on the mic, underrated on the boards. I love that new EPMD single though.
