Youngins today will never know the excitement it was getting home to see BET especially these Freestyles in the basement maan good times when BET had dope content all day from Cita's World, Hits From The Streets, Rap City The Basement, and the original 106 And Park with AJ and Free!!
@@wearenottogetheranymore2658 Yes it is was different you had Midnight Love at night and then BET Uncut we had such a good time growing up we really had it good before social media!!
write that comment under one of these new school rappers video's and people will have the nerve to call you a "hater" when its simple FACTS. I also cant believe how this new trash has Billion of views compared to REAL Rap from 80-mid 00's...SMH I hate fuck boys
there is nothing wrong with having party tracks, tracks that are less lyrical etc. Hip Hop always had its funny tracks as well but that garbage now is FAR beyond trash - its not even hip hop anymore
what makes me even more sad is how no fucking body of the rappers says a fucking word. This makes me believe into Illuminati or at least that somebody in high society is controlling the industry. If all black folks worked together against the industry (as Pimp C wanted and told people to do - month later he died COINCIDENTIALLY) 50 Cent, TI, LL Cool J, Redman, the whole Wu Tang, simply every artists, 90s era, 00s era.... alone Eminem with his popularity but hes a sellout as well. The old Eminem would have never done pop music with Drake SMH You can see the artists just adapting this new school garbage by hopping on Young Thug tracks such as Trae and Yo Gotti - from Gangsta Rap to fucking skinny jeans whatever the fuck you wanna call that.
Trey Thompson anyone who freestyles knows that ur more comfortable when everyone else in the room goes in too, even if they're not that great (Tigga was decent) it makes it more fun & less like a performance
Now, THIS ladies & gentlemen is Real Rap! I miss this Show; Always loved Rap City with Big Tigga; Of course the Freestyle in the Booth was my favorite part! Although not featured in this clip, L.L. was my Favorite!
theres a few rappers i would love to see in the basement, Kendrick Lamar, Dom kennedy, Hopsin, Currensy, Logic, Joey badass , Wale and J. Cole although i kno he would just spit a old verse i just wanna see him in there cus he my fav
Good list man. Bow Wow and Luda definitely some of the best ones from the basement. You gotta check out Killer Mike's basement freestyles man he absolutely kills it off the top. Also, Camron's verse from the dipset appearance on the basement where he was counting money the whole time was great too.
At 11:11 the triple threat Snoop, Talib and Big Tig get funky as WOW with this ish!! for real. All Freestyle, nice work Hiphop flourished in the industry at this point ... and still does. Beauty is all around us
I use to love watching Rap City tha Basement all the time because I wanted to see what guests they had on the show. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017 to find me.
Me in 2000: Tigga is garbage Me in 2016: Tiggas bars are better than 99% of the rappers out
Tigga always been nice wit it.

Preach
Big Tigger was truly freestyling. Pure freestyling
Tigger need to put rap city on UA-cam.
forreal
rip tig
+Alexander Coleman +1 but, most these new rappers couldn't keep up. Big Tig would go off the top and end their career.
countremy730
countremy730 true, I will love for Joey Badass to get a freestyle session with big Tig
Bro. Tigga definitely gave a Valiant effort everytime. You gotta respect that man.
Bro could have wrote a few bars tho 😂
he did what he was supposed to do lol
This when BET was raw its all POP MUSIC NOW
I agree. QUALITY HIP HOP
Just like radio stations putting the same songs pop and r&b
Shit just the BET Babyboy now 😭😭😭
Its gone now..
BET is all mumble rap now 😄
Tigga said damn 10 grand, they better bring 10 million, that shit was fire 🔥
"Don Juan DeMarco"

@@YoungViz it's because of these new kids on the block that never heard REAL rap before and their only exposure is thru shitty soundcloud
@@YoungViz Snoop Dogg is another cat that got caught into this new hot trash wave
Who's watching this during the coronavirus?! 😷👀👀
Man. ..Miss these days
Ha bunch of OGs triple OGs right here
Fuck man...good ol days foreals 😔 I was obsessed with this when I was younger even though I couldn’t rap for shit lol
ME
And again in 2029
I think this is the hardest Bow Wows ever spit lmao but fr
Bowie went ham
Word. I thought I was the only one that felt that.
Evan G bruh I've never heard him do some shit like this
Biggie on dreams inspired it
Bow wow aint even a real gangsta lmao his career over
The Good old days when you couldnt watch this shit on phones you had to be home on time to catch it lmao 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Bro when I got a DVR that shit was the game changer
Between rap city n dragon ball z, dis nigga ran
Facts!
💯
4pm I used to race home from school😅😅😅😅😅
Tigga used to out rhyme a lot of rappers!
Lmfao I sea that
True indeed and off the top on the spot freestyles
Trist ❤ no la
Tigger helped make the booth what it was if u didn't come hard this nigga would rap circles around you
Yup
Today's rappers would get demolished
Trey Thompson he sucks, says his name atleast 5 times a free, "BET" "The Basement" we knowwww
Trey Thompson something about the booth and the other person freeing. Dudes wack as fuck Sway would drop harder
Trey Thompson anyone who freestyles knows that ur more comfortable when everyone else in the room goes in too, even if they're not that great (Tigga was decent) it makes it more fun & less like a performance
Bow Wow ate forreal
bow wow spit a pretty hard freestyle. he was 16 in that video. I remember that unleashed album.
he sound like snoop
If you think that's a freestyle you don't know rap lol
You mean the person who wrote that was good
That’s a was an underrated album
Bow wow was my husband back then 😂
bacc when rappers needed to spit off the top to be considered a rapper.
John Williams 25 percent were actually off the top in this video i bet, and most were tig and bow wow lmfao probably jin to
That has never been a requirement for being a rapper. In fact I can almost guarantee that your favorite rapper cant freestyle.
@@blakswizzy yes it has!!
It's not even that no more SMH bet dead now
I think only 2 ppl spit off the top
Bow wow killed it !!
Megan good if I could
+Vincent Sorel Bow wow's was all written
Ong
Killed himself lol freestyle was trash
man stop lying nigga@@cesarpac3723
Luda's was impeccable over that "Like a Pimp" track
ludacris seems underrated to me I think he's a good mc
mark hornby facts he a legend
Hes one of the best.

Luda deserves more respect as an emcee! for real.
Greatest era of BET. I miss it!

"everybody a thug now, even Nick got a Cannon"... BARS!!!!!!!! Jin was that du!
This was my childhood. When BET was really "Black."
Great memories!!! The basement where everyone went off! Raw freestyles!! The golden age of hip hop on BET!
Snoop Dogg performed like the legend he is... Epic freestyle session!
On some old school shit but that shit hard😂
Bow Wow low key pulled out a 50, he went in
Now, THIS ladies & gentlemen is Real Rap!
I miss this Show; Always loved Rap City with Big Tigga; Of course the Freestyle in the Booth was my favorite part! Although not featured in this clip, L.L. was my Favorite!
Maaannn...S/O to Big Tigger! Just the hassle of having to come off-the-dome w/ every sessions w/ these cats, that's some hard stuff *salute*

big tig spitting off the top of the dome tho
Exactly. He is truly freestyling. Most others wrote it for the show
Yeap.
Good list man. Bow Wow and Luda definitely some of the best ones from the basement. You gotta check out Killer Mike's basement freestyles man he absolutely kills it off the top. Also, Camron's verse from the dipset appearance on the basement where he was counting money the whole time was great too.
Big Tigga best freestyler that has been in the booth. Always off the dome and flawless most times.
At 11:11 the triple threat Snoop, Talib and Big Tig get funky as WOW with this ish!! for real. All Freestyle, nice work Hiphop flourished in the industry at this point ... and still does. Beauty is all around us

Man do I miss the days when Rap City in the Basement comes on TV in I'll watch and hear some cold and real cool freestyle.
Jay-z at the end "haters want beef, because they know thats the only way we ever gonna speak". Knocked me out
Jays flow is so buttery over the track
That lil Wayne freestyle is a legendary, Tig slid on that shit too!

Somebody should of put tigger on. He was decent! Better then these rappers now
He signed to ice age I believe
Use to watch this everyday after school man I’m old lmao
idc what anybody says...Bow went in!
Luda is extremely underrated. He’s definitely in my top 10 (the real king of the South)
Underrated depending on the generation you asking about him
People really slept on Bow wow freestyle, he killed that
This bring back so many memories, definitely not the best of but ill take it!
Imagine if Lil Snupe was able to be on this show smh he was great RIP🙏🏽
and logic
999 would have killed this

20 years later the ice cream machine still broken
That Jennifer freeman line was crazy lol
“Every rapper a thug now… even Nick got a Cannon” 🔥
