Freestyle Friday: Ghostface vs. Royce Da 5’9″

I missed posting Freestyle Friday last week, so today we’re gonna come correct by putting up two heavyweights against each other: Ghostface Killah vs. Royce Da 5’9″.

The idea behind Freestyle Fridays is to battle one another with your favorite verse from either of the two competitors. You’re essentially battling other commenters in this thread by using the words of Ghostface or Royce Da 5’9″. Hit the jump for a few rules and then jump in on the comments!

Before we start, let’s see if we can keep the thread in order today, by following a couple simple rules:

1. Please don’t drop the lyrics to a whole song. No more than one verse!

2. Please stay in order…. Ghostface, then Royce, then Ghostface, etc. If you want to drop a Ghosftface verse, wait until someone has dropped a Royce one. The idea is to go back and forth. It’s possible that more than one person may be trying to drop a verse at one time… we’ll just keep moving on.

I’ll start this thread off with a verse from Royce Da 5’9″:

“Verbalizin’ my fiend murder
Communicatin’ while you debatin’ usin’ machine squirters
Brrap, that trigger’s my tongue, I let you lick it
Nigga that, fo’-fifth’ll, lift a nigga, whole clique up
The Lord call for your soul, it’s time to go pick up
Answer the horn, it’s blowin at you, you cold stiff up
My heat, heatin my whole hip up, all we do is court strippers
Your metal freezin like it’s a morgue zipper
I ride around with Preme
Not the Preme from Queens, but the Preme from
‘Bout to change the game, ’bout to fly the desert, eagle
for y’all people like the wing’s the clip, and the barrel’s the beak
My perilous fleece, I’ma throw on them diamonds
I’m a pharaoh deceased, like a spawn was rhymin
And, I would advice ya not attempt to
New (Temptations), the gun harmonizin”

-Royce Da 5’9″, “Gun Harmonizing”

    What these clown niggaz hollerin’?
    What they need to be hollerin’, is “There go Theodore!”
    Put the ball down, we can’t score
    They pen shit to blackboards, make queens out of wack broads
    You see us comin’? Fuck that Fam shit, just pass off, you bitch
    Crystal’ Dana Dane’s wrapped around your neck
    Lookin’ rich, baow, you fucked up now
    See my gun, nigga? This baby got stuffed uptown
    Shouted out, made a whole safe with the pump root pounds
    My buddy, keep my gun, right next to my tummy
    Ask the click, yo, they spit metal lungies
    Detach wigs, kill flunkies off contact, sonsee
    Didn’t mommy tell y’all niggaz to wear clean undies?
    See y’all should of listened to her
    She knew her son had a big mouth, and some day death would accur
    Please for Ms. Gale’s sake, and her seeds
    Pass the flurry, ain’t fuckin’ around, they knocked to her weave

    More venom, 5’9 is like a G5
    Illest lyrics is stored in him
    Chorus is killin, any warrior feelin
    That I ain’t God – Lord willin
    Trust me, after I crush ya buildin
    You will just hush, you won’t restore the village
    We look toward wit killin, real
    Though this album is mor-bidly feelin to steel
    HIP HOP! – FUCK your feelin’s
    More rappers dying, much more killin
    It’s no feelin, realer than gamblin ya life
    Everyday, and wakin up to more dealin’s
    Fourteen killin’s, compared to offshore millions
    Equals, I got a lot more villians
    You know that you easily lose, you be on MTV News
    For the first time, because you died over

    Scientific, my hand kissed it
    Robotic let’s think optimistic
    You probably missed it, watch me dolly dick it
    Scotty watty cop it to me, big microphone hippie
    Hit Poughkepsie crispy chicken verbs throw up a stone richie
    Chop the O, sprinkle a lil’ snow inside a Optimo
    Swing the John McEnroe, rap rock’n'roll
    Tidy Bowl, gung-ho pro, Starsky with the gumsole
    Hit the rump slow, parole kids, live Rapunzel
    but Ton’ stizzy really high, the vivid laser eye guide
    Jump in the Harley ride, Clarks I freak a lemon pie
    I’m bout it, bout it – Lord forgive me, Ms. Sally shouted
    Tracey got shot in the face, my house was overcrowded
    You fake cats done heard it first
    On how I shitted on your turf
    at times, Cuban Link verse yo
    Check out the rap kingpin, summertime fine jewelry drippin
    Face in the box, I seen your ear twitchin
    As soon as I drove off, Cap’ came to me with three sawed-offs
    Give one to Rae’, let’s season they broth
    Lightning rod fever heaters, knock-kneeder Sheeba for hiva
    Diva got rocked from the receiver bleeder
    Portfolio, lookin fancy in the pantry
    My man got bigger dimes son, your shit is scampi
    Base that, throw what’s in your mouth, don’t waste that

    I’m the verbal-spit Smith Wesson
    I unload with sick spit the quick wick could split a split-second
    Bomb with a lit wick expression
    You here a tick tick then you testin..
    My saliva and spit can split thread into fiber and bits
    So trust me, I’m as live as it gets
    Everybody claimin they the best and head the throne
    Since B.I.G is gone, if you ask me, they +Dead Wrong+
    My flow is hotter than the flash from the click
    When the hammer slaps the bullet on the ass from the clip
    You wind up in a room full of my dawgs
    I’ll have you feeling like a fire hydrant in a room full of dogs
    So come, come now, get pissed on, shitted on
    Tough talk turns to, “Can’t we all just get along”
    You get blazed when the mic’s off, shot when it’s on
    You probably ducked when they laid the gun shot in your song
    My gun strrr-utters when it speaks to you
    Utter shit to repeat to you
    Nothing the clip, then give a speech to you
    Me and Premier, we kind of the same in ways
    We both speak with our hands in dangerous ways
    Rap now is a circus of clowns
    A whole lot of lip from cliques I’d probably rap circles around
    I’m the next best to reach a peak formerly known
    as the best keep secret, I guess that I just leaked it

    Royce – Boom

    Aiyo, jumping out of Benz wagons, my family live in the Hill
    They call us Bin Ladins, laughing, turbaned up
    Niggas get murdered up, these streets is like radio beef
    So watch how the kid turn it up
    Bulletproof tuxes, knuckle games is clarkers and busters
    Eighteen niggas, bringing the ruckus
    Flame throwers on our backs and shoulders, the rusty joints still work
    The trey eight’ll blow one of your doujas
    When it’s mad, he the mad calm, walk around
    Gold collect, 36, so before G bomb
    My inner strength flowing, I mastered chi kung
    Ya’ll Planet of the Apes, standing next to King Kong
    Forensic file, ultraviolet hype, sky blue Bales
    Laying niggas like ceramic tile
    I’m like Urlacher, beasting at the top of the pile
    Laying niggas in the nuts, nigga, damn I’m foul

    “king”

    I’m in shape to give you a quick whoopin’, hard asshole in the wall
    Frownin’ up, niggaz thinkin’ you sick cuz you sick lookin’
    I’m heated, an’ I’m-a go to trial blowin’ my triggers
    Ya’ll niggaz ain’t rough, you need to smile more in ya pictures
    Split somebody, and serve the nigga whose style you bit
    That bit like 10 niggaz that bit somebody
    Top of the world, all that’s around you is beneath me
    Me learnin’ from your mistakes is the only way you can teach me
    Mo’ thunder, cockin’ big heat
    So undergrounds niggaz wit’ beef can get mo’ under, 6 feet
    Man ya missles, I plan to dis you
    Unleash wit’ about 30 punches before the first lands and hits you
    Niggaz I doubt ya’ll cuz I’m an outlaw
    Right-handed, built wit’ a left that can arm wrestle a southpaw
    Gun shine bright, (ya’ll niggaz?) ya’ll need to rhyme like 5’9
    Unsigned wit’ hype… (King!)

    * “i’m the king”

  • http://myspace.com/razorsharpeny razorSHARPE

    “More than thousand times one, snatch up, my styles get done
    I hold a title, enhanced how my belt was won, check it
    Slick majestic, broke mics are left infected
    Germs start to spread through your crew, drew like an epic
    You asked for it, shot up the jams like syringes
    My technique alone blows doors straight off the hinges
    Masked avenger, I appear to blow your ear like wind
    With a freestyle, sharper than the indian spear
    So sit back and let the king explore
    Describe me, the kid’s nice and he holds swords
    And his name, black attack’s the nerve like migraines
    With more games than beggars on trains, livid sharp pains
    Poisonous rebel like deck, you can’t destroy this
    You get ambushed, skate, try to avoid this
    Side effects of, hot raps and hot tracks
    A duffle bag full of guns son, dipped in black
    My culture, slides and attacks like a vulture
    Ghostface and madison square is on your poster”

    Are people really saying that Ghostface is winning? I can’t be reading that correctly. We’re talking about Royce Da 5’9″. Half the shit Ghostface says doesn’t make any sense.
