I don't know, I was asleep when it happened. --- The first part is from the song Dedicated, and the second part is a freestyle he wrote way back when he first started out, and it just popped into his head. He talked about it on some message board... I think the Fort Minor one.
I have the full video of it. Mike does two verses. Neither of which were really freestyles, I assume they were from songs he'd already written in the past. Dedicated is in there somewhere. Mike does attempt a freestyle at the end but just messes up completely. Brad even does a freestyle, but it's telepathic,
Wow, a video. I only have the one verse (Behind closed curtain I don't even exist is in it). Is it banned to give me a link to the video.
Oh lol. Is the DJ Vice freestyle copyrighted or can I ask for the video here? Also, do you know if the DJ Vice Freestyle was an actual freestyle?
Vice freestyle was pre-written, there aren't any recordings of Mike doing a 100% off the top of the head freestyle. And you can't ask for mp3s/videos on this site, period.
Mike said on the FM messageboards that the one from the Wake Up Show was from a verse he had written a long time ago and it just popped into his mind. The Vice one is a studio-recorded track for an album, so I doubt it was done in one take off the top of Mike's head. And there aren't many rappers who can really freestyle off the top of their heads very well, most rap battles and stuff you see, the rappers are usually using stuff that they already had written but just never used.
Oh wow I always thought that DJ Vice freestyle clip was actually a freestyle, and I thought it was rather good...It seemed almost like Mike was lying on the Wake-Up Show when he said he was freestyling and then did Dedicated...it seemed kind of obvious he wasn't freestyling that.
