Before he even starts rapping, I'm floored that he can even keep all nine suggestions in his head, much less incorporate them all into a freestyle rap and do callbacks throughout. Chris performed over Zoom at my company's Virtual Christmas Party during the COVID lockdown in 2020, and absolutely killed it. The most impressive thing though, is how much general knowledge he has. You RARELY see him need a request from the audience explained.
case in point he literally thought the audience member was referring to charlamagne the roman emperor (i just looked him up), though they almost certainly were meaning the radio host.
Look. I’m 38 and have been doing off the top freestyles since I was 11 with people throwing me words to prove as such cuz sometimes you get in the zone and people like no way you just did that off the top but this? This is beyond next level. To stay on these weird ass topics and have them blend together is MASTER WORK
I was thinking the same thing. Have you listened much to Harry Mack? I’ve never heard anyone like him and I’ve been writing and performing since 1992. He is seriously as next level as next level can be.
@@davidwaller5740 Yeah Harry actually commented on one of my off the top freestyles I posted on IG back in 2017 before he got really popular. Him and Tom MacDonald but I think Tom was like using some bot marketing thing cuz just had a rock on or something like that kind of comment. But yeah Harry is next level. I’m really good for like 2 whole beats but after that I lose the “zone”
@@irh1738 Well stated. Not necessarily a comparison as they are both improvisation. Anyone who can do this understands there are levels to it. Chris Turner has put an incredible amount of time into this and ranks highly in his craft.
@@nobody_X24People like you really irritate me. Just like to talk shit, without suggesting other freestylers you actually think are better, or why you consider it ass, just shit talking for the sake of shit talking.
This might just be the best one you've ever done. I love it when you weave a common thread throughout the rap. The way you intertwined every suggestion with the topic of ED was magnificent.
@@hodor6159 Shut up bots don't get opinions >:^( Seriously though, the reason every video has a "this is the best one" comment is because bro just keeps getting better and better. Almost like he's developing a skill or something, crazy lol
I think splitting the audience into sections helps - our memory works best when we picture objects in space (that’s why you walk into a room and forget what you came in for, because the “space” (the room) has changed), so he looks at a certain section, and remembers the suggestion. Also talking about each topic helps, because you are building connections to it. He probably doesn’t even try to remember the ones he rejected, they just pop up when he looks at that section, because he’s already built connections between that and the chosen option. Sorry that was probably a really boring explanation of how memory works, but I enjoy that stuff. 🤷🏻♂️
@@TPRM1 Don't apologize for that! That was actually really interesting and insightful, thank you for explaining. Maybe it'll help someone like me with an atrocious memory. (Hey that rhymes. I've been binging Chris, that's probably why. WOAH I just did it again!)
What a gigabrain! Not only remembering the topics flawlessly, not only freestyling about them but on top of that making it funny. Talent out of this world.
@@bamfordsteele555 They're both impressive. I watch Chris Turner more though because he's more entertaining with the lyrics, even if Harry Mack is way ahead of him in terms of speed and flow.
The level of intelligence and understanding of the world to be able to pull this shit off is EXTREMELY impressive. I'd love to chat and have a beer with you bro
What always impresses me is that he does them out of order! It’d be tough enough to think of them in the sequence they were given by the audience, but he just goes and mixes them up, too!! 😂
I think he's associating the suggestions with different parts of the audience visually instead of using a sequence, and going in whatever order he wants makes it easier to flow between topics while freestyling. Crazy talent!
@@AcidicDelusionHarry Mack is arguably the best freestyle rapper, but this is definitely not average. He is really funny and the knowledge he drops in every freestyle he does is crazy. Chris is a rare talent.
I've been enjoying your freestyle raps for about a year, this one really blew me away. This quickly became a favourite of mine, I can't believe you remembered all those topics and flowed between them so well and with so much humour! Congratulations and keep it up!
This is shocking! HOW does he do that?! It's not just the memory, and the fact that he even uses suggestions he didn't add to the list, and does them out of order, or that he returns to previous jokes like the best comedians do, or that there's a narrative to the story... It's the fact that he does all of that with literally no prep time. That blows my mind.
I couldn't even type out a story containing all those suggestions, yet he can remember and freestyle all of them. Dude is a beast for someone who does is as the end of his act.
Yep, this is probably Chris’s best freestyle ever given the high number of wacky audience suggestions. The beat was super laid back and was mixed appropriately to the vocal mic. This was amazingly well crafted, funny and NASTEEEEEE!
I have never seen or heard of you before until now. I don't think I have enjoyed a video this much in a long time. I am definitely watching another one.
as a FT hip hop instructor/on label etc i think i could do the freestyles but REMEMBERING them annnd tying them together on the spot is unreal - that said i spent most of my 18yrs in rap focused on more compelx written rhymes but off top this dudes unreal
That was absolutely mind-blowing! Chris, your a master of your craft! I've been following you for quite a while, yet still very, very impressive and entertaining. Thanks!
Game recognize game. As someone who loves to freestyle and does rapping exercises regularly, I can only hope to one day have the smooth white man flows that this British chap has. Haha, He's crushing it for topical freestyles.
Does he have ringers in the audience? Are they all ringers. This guys able to spit shit out while being relaxed enough to come up with some funny shit. This is gret.
Rap battles are too easy and mean for top tier freestylers like Chris turner and Harry Mack who are known for making people smile rather than feel humiliated. I’d love to see this movement inspire teachers since it’s a great medium for condensing information
I really cant comprehend how he can do this. it's not even as if he's just dropping the line suggested, he drops the line then stays on the subject and embellishes for bar after bar before moving on...👏👏👏👏👏
well holy shit, that was good - popped into my recommended probably cause i watch a ton of harry mack, and i'm gonna watch a chunk of your content! keep it up
What a great standup bit; if you didn't have evidence, you could convince people this was all plants in the audience that you took the suggestions from. Nailed it, amazing!
Good on so many levels. This is one of my favorites! Will be 101st floored if you do better this year. Still think this will be on top when the rewind comes out. Thank you for 2023's best.
your raps really are incredible. you just memorized 10 things while trying to come up with ways to make them rhyme whereas i cant even remember what video i watched before this.
I wanna see you and Harry Mack do off top freestyles, that would be insane and you would feed off of each other's energy. But the comedic aspect makes this whole performance that much better!
Love it! Admiration! … from a slam poet who recited material on stage. Then a guy gets up there and puts us all to shame. I thought, what’s the point; because it’s a competition, and I’ve already lost to this guy. Just like this!
How many highways exist in your brain? To chat with people, asking questions and making witty jokes while simultaneously planning a story to connect all those topics in a sequence amd then fill them with lines that actually make sense and flow to a beat and put in extra general knowledge is still, although I have binged every single video on your channel, mind boggling every time I see you perform again. Seems like going to an elite college wasnt a waste after all :D
It’s kind of assured that the majority of the crowd is going to stand up, isn’t it? I mean, they aren’t going to just stay the rest of the night, ya know.
This show was on the 101st floor of a New York Skyscraper. Come and see me at sea level: www.christurnercomedy.com/tour-dates
Is underwater on the table?
Really cool to see the whole setup before you start, and to see more of the crowd reactions.

yeah this was dope.... promising drill rapper

He graduated from Oxford with a BA in Archaeology and Anthropology
Yeah I don't know how he does that I can barely remember street names
he is as impressed as you
Dude ur memory alone is insane. When u add the rap talent it's unreal.
Brother?

'Did her indecently feel the rage rousing thats munchausen by proxy'
Absolute genius
Goddamn he covered so many suggestions here! It's great how he always rejects one or two but then includes them in the rap anyway.
Harry Mack has been doing that for years.
@@bamfordsteele555 They're both impressive. I watch Chris Turner more though because he's more entertaining with the lyrics, even if Harry Mack is way ahead of him in terms of speed and flow.
He always throws in a ton of rejections, but I was shocked he left out Charlemagne since he's a huge history buff.
@@JP-re9xj There is no way in God that American women meant that Charlemagne, she meant Charlemagne Tha God.
Anyone else realize the real comedy there ?
Placing the Bald guy right where the spotlight is ,was an evil Genius move 😂
Holy shit.
This made me laugh out loud, and now I can't unsee it
I got up and ran when he did the "cross-legged watching Pocahontas" line. That was crazy bars.

Harry Mack and Chris Turner duo!!!
This dude is average ;Harry Mack is on another level
@@AcidicDelusiontrue. Chris is smart but Harry Mack is extra terrestrial
I absolutely both. Both have different styles, and Harry's rapping sounds more appealing, but both are the Goat!!❤
@@AcidicDelusionHarry Mack is arguably the best freestyle rapper, but this is definitely not average. He is really funny and the knowledge he drops in every freestyle he does is crazy. Chris is a rare talent.
He is not average he is superb. But Harry is the GOAT.
They are different acts this dude does it differently with comedy.
He even tied in a bunch of thr extra topics that didn't make the list and brought it all full circle, amazing.

I genuinely have no idea how you do this - phenomenal intellect, memory, rapping, rhyming, comedy. Has everything ❤
Truly a master at work - connected every topic, more than usual 5, and put a little joke on each
Yep, this is probably Chris’s best freestyle ever given the high number of wacky audience suggestions. The beat was super laid back and was mixed appropriately to the vocal mic. This was amazingly well crafted, funny and NASTEEEEEE!
The man laughing at 01:51 even laughs with an American accent. I knew we weren't in Britain just by that 😆
I knew it when he said you didn't here to see a brittish white rapper
Wait, we have a laugh accent??
@@daniellegoodrum8405 believe it or not yes. I'm a vocalist and have an extremely well tuned ear.
...okay...i have to admit... the overly long wait... was worth it...
VERY talented!!! How he combined all the suggestions, magic!
I have never seen or heard of you before until now. I don't think I have enjoyed a video this much in a long time. I am definitely watching another one.
What a challenge was this, oh my god! Great job even remembering those subjects, that rap was sick!
That was ridiculous! What a talent in this man. Well done dude
Like how the fuck. This dudes flow and rhymes are magical.
"Name a woman" sounds like she was reading a cue card out loud instead of following the instructions written on it.
Like the anchorman or Biden
Had to be a reference to Billy on the Street
This rap is one of my new favorites. GREAT JOB.
One of the funniest things I have seen in years! Keep it up!
Crowd work before combined with the comedic crowd engagement as you flow through the ideas is superb - funny, creative and great entertainment
Thanks!
Absolutely Love this! Thanks so much! Much Love!
as a FT hip hop instructor/on label etc i think i could do the freestyles but REMEMBERING them annnd tying them together on the spot is unreal - that said i spent most of my 18yrs in rap focused on more compelx written rhymes but off top this dudes unreal
You cannot learn this. Its a born talent. Amazing skill to have. Well done
That was absolutely mind-blowing! Chris, your a master of your craft! I've been following you for quite a while, yet still very, very impressive and entertaining. Thanks!
This dude was sitting around like “you know… I could rap about anything.”
You need a special superhighway of super connected neurons to pull stuff like this off.
Beautifully put!
all i can think of, other than being impressed, is what is the compartmental thinking that is required to pull this off. Well done sir
Been watching these on and off for a while. This one made me officially subscribe. 🍻
Wow. You kept this one together like nothing else. Good job!
Chris Turner! Never stop stopping man! Genius at work!
Daaaaayummmmmmm skills that serve, that deserve more recognition!
8:53 till 9:09 is absolutely perfect flow and sync with the beat
And then there's 9:23 Haha
Game recognize game. As someone who loves to freestyle and does rapping exercises regularly, I can only hope to one day have the smooth white man flows that this British chap has. Haha, He's crushing it for topical freestyles.
I can't even remember all the damn suggestions let alone freestyle about them. Salute, that was dope!
Thanks Chris for your efforts and videos. Truly enjoyable
holy shit Chris just gets better and better, and hoooow is that even possible!
Random algorithm find. Keep grinding on this, it’s great! There’s no way my brain could process fast enough to keep any of this straight- subscribed.
Phenomenal! I am glad such a sharp mind enjoys entertaining us but I cant help but think he could do so much more with it. Respect
Man 😆those topics dont need Hims they were hard as f£$k lol! glad the crowd appreciated that one very well done sir 👏the last line was hilarious lol
Exactly. Everyone laughed with a boner
Homie got bars for days!!!! Straight 🔥 You just earned a like and a new subscriber!
OK DUDE, you killed it... That was pure talent to cover every topic.
I thought he was JOKING when he said he'd do Munchausen by proxy! Holy cow that was smooth!
Wow! First time watching Chris and I am blown away by his talent
Does he have ringers in the audience? Are they all ringers. This guys able to spit shit out while being relaxed enough to come up with some funny shit. This is gret.
I've seen him live and gave a suggestion. Think it was Starburst. Slayed it live. He definitely threw in a taste the rainbow joke into the rap.
One of the best freestylers around. Do they still do gritty rap battles or is the world dumb now? If they do, I’d love to see him compete
Rap battles are too easy and mean for top tier freestylers like Chris turner and Harry Mack who are known for making people smile rather than feel humiliated.
I’d love to see this movement inspire teachers since it’s a great medium for condensing information
Awesome!!!! I loved every minute of it
Think that's the first time I've heard you stumble.. you are human after all lol. Great stuff.
stumble? he killed this freestyle
Your talent is just amazing...
I believe I’d like a shirt that reads
“Be as creative as Klaus”.
One of your best ever!
Freestyle like they have necer seen before great great work haha remembering everything seems to be the hardest part!!💪🏾😤
I really cant comprehend how he can do this. it's not even as if he's just dropping the line suggested, he drops the line then stays on the subject and embellishes for bar after bar before moving on...👏👏👏👏👏

Chris is a mad genius! Freaking BRILLIANT! 😂 🤣
Unreal, an instant classic.
That Royal Oak line after seeing the watch is just...
That…was inSANE 😳 His brain is something else, just wow
My jaw dropped . That was amazing
I'm honestly not a fan of Rap but you never fail to impress! 👍🏾
It's always impressive. You're a one of a kind comedian.👍
What a great standup bit; if you didn't have evidence, you could convince people this was all plants in the audience that you took the suggestions from.
Nailed it, amazing!
He broke me at "shut up who said Stephen hawking"
😮DAMN. I haven’t heard real freestyle off the top like this in a long time. Unless I’ve missed some of them. But damn. This was impressive 👏
This is the most functioning brain ever.
using 100% of his brain at once.

He’s hands down the most talented comedian out here right now.
Beyond impressed! Love it!
When I saw all the topics listed, I thought to myself, "yeah, this is the one where he'll fuck up" but nooooo he slayed that
Would love if you added the suggestions in the description if not the title so we can come back to it!
Great job in remembering all the suggestions And putting them in your rap 😆👍.
