I go through life like everyone else, day to day.. getting by. But there's the odd day I go back to this and sit and listen to this masterpiece. This is f*ucking insane
This was the masterpiece he left the rap game before he became washed up he let them know that he will forever be and is a legend. Respect is all that needs to be said.
@jbx.222 he’s not washed up no, but if he tried on being in the spotlight he would’ve being hence the line in the song. “How many of my fans might just not buy my new stuff”
This gives me goosebumps down my spine every time I listen. And I've listened 100's of times. It's like he's rapping just to me.... It's just beautiful. ❤💗💓💙💜🖤💚💛🧡💖💝💘💟

Ohhhhh brother !!!!!! Hit it with both lungs. Too deadly. God bless you in your career so refined I have no more words... except ❤ from Australia 🥰 yewwww
This is a narrow example though. I love the UK scene as much as the US but I've never heard a UK album that comes close to Ready to Die/The Infamous levels.
I still, to this day, get mad when he interrupts him.
Why would you even stop the god flow fool sloth if I ever see him he’s getting slapped on sight

He heard the biggie xx ha yes remix and did this…
Rihanna ended up doing a song over it I'm sure
This guy is a lyrical genius every bar hits ya deep real life real struggle so motivational

Thank you wretch 32 for blessing us with this masterpiece👏
It's not wretch it's avelino
@@leannejayhavelino is the other guy
Watching during the pandemic🦠 still the best
This is the wretch FITB I return to the most 💪💪💪🔥🔥🔥
5 years on and this still gives me goosebumps, lyrical genius
1:36 for the full version instead of Charlie dippin in randomly
I’ll never forgive myman for ruining wretch’s momentum
Mxhinn after he got stopped and turned the headphones on he was better
Oh yesssss
Cheers g
Genius... still listening most weeks, 5 years later
This is definitely hands down the best song on fire in the booth 🏆and how under rated example is he's 1 of Britain's best
Did example do this beat ? X
THE
This is the best verse a rapper has ever produced and nothing can change my mind
Still can’t get over the fact they stopped him freestyling but I’m glad they let him go again. Man spat pure fire x
'The Titanic ain't going down coz of me.. see, I can't swim but I'll be the anchor for the sea'... wow just wow!
That's my favourite bar
@@1991enduro the whole verse is incredible but have to agree, it's my favourite too 😊
Anchor for the scene...!
@@nicholasicke8642 oh yeh, I've just realised lol.. thanks for correcting me!
Incredible never heard anything like this
Not normally a fan of fire in the booth normally But this one I have listened to over a million times 😂
4 years later and this song still gives me chills
Heard this when it aired on the radio I remember everything about that night and still to this day (2024) this is still on my playlist will forever hit me hard this tune
coming back again in 2023 cos its just that good
That put him on another level even avelino cant believe it wretch 32 man before his time big up
Will this ever get old? I come back to this year after year and for some reason it just gets better.
Frrr
2023. still the greatest fire in the booth. ever.
Still the best freestyle 6 years later! hands down! 🔥🔥
Definitely without a doubt 💯 👌
It’s 2023 and this is still the best fire in the booth in my opinion word play on point.
To many goosebumps every time I listen
I've listened to wretch for many many years, this Set always stands out, Wow every time, Pure as can be , Wow xx
I would say it's one of the hardest FITB lyricals r fucking mad and listen to wht his saying...
I’ll never forgive Charlie sloth for interrupting him
Yeah Yeah you okow
Pisses me off silly man Charlie 😅
Who here In 2023
Lately death's been getting ever so close
Been feeling spirits while I'm driving, I should get me a ghost
Growing up, didn't know the difference 'tween the road and my home
Now I'm grown, I'm trying to buy every home on my road
Takeaway's been over-rinsed, I need a chef to come and live with me
Last time I picked up a pot-I nearly killed a fiend
I don't see a potent rapper out here that can mirror me
When I gave my kidneys to these kids, they must be kidding me
Do you remember playing operation? (Yeah)
That's how I feel about these compilations
Think they're the next Dr. Dre until they lose their patience.
Saying the game's in a state, man that's an understatement
I mean, how much more gems can I drop-on the future?
How much of my fans might just not buy my new stuff?
We all got bars, but nobody here's a brewer
I'm bringing sandwich to the beach in the hope of finding tuna
This is nonsense-past tense
I'm a rap genius-I've passed sense
So if you ain't got a 2-1, or you ain't 3-2, you gotta graduate before you pass Wretch
We got off on the wrong foot because you half-step
Meanwhile, I'm getting restless because I can't rest
Twenty-one hours I'm awake, the other three I'm in a daze writing what to say with my last breath
Can you not hear the difference? Even when it's in your system?
Every time I flip the script, I got a scripture
I've seen man go from the strip to the strip club
I'm tryna go from eating Rich Tea to the rich club
I used to wanna go from the bits to the BRITs cuz
And then I realised it's a fix when your skin's dark
Should I do a Kanye and keep it triller?
Fuck that-even when I lose, I'm the winner
I'm-the people's champ let me thank the people
Who-never got the point until they grabbed the needle
Niggas tried to minus my pluses just to divide my people
Who go from stepping on roaches to stepping by The Beatles.
It's progression at its finest
They say my weakness is kindness
I killed 'em with success, cause it's timeless
Every verse is a verse from the chapter of writing
The Writing's on the Wall, we know who Destiny's Child is
King Kendrick or Jermaine Cole
Or are you saying "King Wretched" or "Jermaine's Cold"?
I'm trying to lay The Blueprint and give you Reasonable Doubt
So when you Watch the Throne, they can see me Change Clothes
Hang on, wait
You best believe that I'm a general
'Cause one of us have gotta compete at all the festivals
And I've been out here rapping for free before my testicles dropped.
Man, I'm so credible, I'm incredible, ugh
They say a promise is a comfort to a fool
I'm lying if I want to say I live in comfort, I'm the truth
And this will be the best Fire in the Booth
And I doubt they'll tell you different when I'm standing in the room
Why? Different class
Sometimes you have to ask:
"Do you want to be the best in your country or your school?"
In a country full of rules, where we're selling lollipop to keep them sucking on our balls
It's survival of the fittest, so I'm Mo Farah

The less mercy you show could leave you merciless alone
But I'm yard grown, so I ain't taking no badda, nah.
And Tidal's got the whole world moving crazy
It's like they rather free Spotify playlist
That's messed up, like them cops on the day shift
Who just can't stop and search without tazing
Shit seems shocking when you're reading about it
Six years old they was raiding my house, shit
Tryna find my uncle, didn't open my mouth, shit
My dad mighta killed me-no snitching on our ship
The Titanic ain't going down because of me
See I can't swim, but I'll be the anchor for the scene
See how did they expect musicians to stay afloat
When all our sales keep going down the stream?
Pointless

When the USA wants to hear a UK grime track - this is it right there. Compare the lyrical poetry to a Drake chart song... Sorry sit down mate
