Okkkkkk Sooooo when I heard that "another cypher" had just been dropped....I will admit...I didn't rush to click the link. I mean...let's face it. The day n age of an "authentic battle"...I mean a real, artistic, creative mosh up of artists... hungry to showcase their freestyle skills, amongst other artists ... just doesn't seem to be appreciated it like it used to be. Don't get my wrong, I appreciate what other artists, dj's and promoters have done in the past...to resurrect the art of a true "CYPHER". Yet I myself have felt like these "modern day cyphers"...leave me feeling somewhat unsatisfied. *Like when I eat a huge portion of chicken and shrimp from Benihanas....and 30 mins later...I'm hungry like I never ate. *yeah...that feeling. When I finally decided to open the link...I was immediately surprised!!!
I LOVE the setting because its a true Hip-Hop feel. The studios atmosphere alone can be full-filling as well as satisfying. If you have ever been to Get It Poppin , you would know that the studio isn't the biggest....but the way the "The Knew Me Cypher" was shot...the studio comes across as being larger than life!!! DJ Ball managed to do 1 of the BEST jobs ever...accomplishing what others have only seemed to be struggling to accomplish in this new generation of "FREESTYLING". With that being "read"...I give you "The Knew Me Cypher"....

I'm glad nobody was tryna act like they were better than anyone else
DAMN the studio looks good on camera
I gotta give it to Dj Ball....
It's gonna be hard to try and out top this
This is how cyphers should be
Awwwwww I feel like I'm in the Basement at Rap City on BET
I miss that show
After "The Knew Me Cypher" ended...I musta pushed replay at least 10 times. Of course I had to go back and watch everyone spit their bars...and each and every single time I watch it I find myself watching with a lil smirk upon my face. Like "hell yeah...Ball out did himself with this". In the city of CLEVELAND it's difficult to get a group of artists together, to do something as simple as...spitting over a beat. Some people may say it's "ego", or "popularity" status. I like to sum it up as "music politics". Dj Ball managed to break down the barries of ego, popularity, and politics. "The Knew ME Cypher" allowed you to witness some of Clevelands dopest MC's, and possibly the most underrated artists. Just to see each artists bobbing their head as each other took turns at the CAVALIER mic was exciting, admirable, and a beautiful thing to watch musically. No one tried upstage the next man. "The Knew Me Cypher" was presented how a cypher should be. A nice cool atmosphere, where hip-hop covers the walls, 1 of the dopest Dj's in the city, not screaming and yelling over the artists...but quietly playing tha back...and a mixture of dope ass beats.
I respect each artist more than I did before...because with a few bars, you really had a chance to "get to know" Shuicide, MOOKIE, YOUNG SHON, Crazy 8, and SYXX. Dj Ball showed that it is possible to pull off the unimaginable ...without having to use a "fancy location", and without having hella "crew members" tryna be all in the front. I know fo fact that people have watched "The Knew Me Cypher" and said "damnnnnnn lemme watch dis 1 mo time". We may have thought we already knew these artists. Yet now we know "The Knew Me" cypher!!!! XOXO
S/o to MEDGERY for makin a DOPE VISUAL!!!!!!!!!!!
