Reply to comment by ElectronHick in TIL that researchers actually studied the brain activity of free-style rappers to figure out how they improvise lyrics on the go. by dark_knight1702

I think when he tries, like when he had to freestyle in front of Kendrick Lamar on a radio show that one time, Harry Mack can construct a freestyle of substance. But most of the time he isn't really putting all that much effort, which is quite impressive nonetheless.

I didn’t like his Kendrick freestyle that much, there is a few that I really enjoyed, but that isn’t one of them.

And upon re-reading my comment I feel like it was a bit too harsh on Hmack. I listen to his stuff regularly, and appreciate his skill. I also have heard some amazing freestyles that have some amazing punchlines that make me exclaim audibly, which he hasn’t done for me. I enjoy listening to him because he has a good time with the crowd he is with, and think he is a good dude who would be fun to hang out with, not because he is the best freestyler to exist.
