  4. MC JUICE is the greatest freestyler in existence. After a show he was cool enough to chill for few hours with me and my friends just smoking and cyphering, we fed him words for a good hour non stop and he just murdered it

    I honestly could barely understand his words. Please post some lyrics to state your case.

  6. Uhh I dont understand how a writer could ever get writer's block, so called
    My problem is having too much.. and being unable to get it down...

    [Canibus]
    Yo, why is the ripper so ill?
    That would be a unpardonable breach of confidence for me to reveal!
    He said one day all eyes would be on me
    when they look up in the sky and see the neon 'C'
    Rhymes inscribed on a nickel disk encased
    in a glass with an ion beam for longevity
    For more then 10 centuries, impressions and memories
    the first time-machine inventor will mention me
    Canibus was a visionary indeed
    he believed light could travel in multiples of c
    The organic supercomputer that solved the mysteries
    of Klein-Kaluza with 2 blue metric rulers
    Liked Cool J, but thought Stephen Jay Gould was cooler
    and he never liked to propagate rumors
    Smoked Canary Island cigars
    liked American luxury cars and beautiful Asian broads
    He had a strong mind, he used to philosophize
    about rhymes while he was pruning his Bonsai
    He claimed that he had written the greatest rhyme of all time
    but he would never take it out his archives
    He wrote 2 songs per day
    and was constantly experimenting with his wordplay
    In his youth he did a report on the Sloan Digital Sky survey
    he got an F but he deserved an A
    I followed his career from the first day
    it seemed the lack of support contributed to his inert ways
    I seen him put in 24 hour workdays
    with deferred pay, undeterred by the word "shame"
    Public humiliation was the worst pain
    he was spinnin out of control like a class 5 hurricane
    He said he wouldn't want another emcee to suffer the same
    especially when there's nothing to gain
    He was the illest alive but nobody would face it
    he spit till his tongue was too torched to taste, it
    properly funded corporations carbon-dated his latest creations
    to extract the information
    They found it utterly amazing
    they claimed the body of his work was the same thing as a priceless painting
    Never mattered to him, the art galleries hated him
    cause Thomas Kinkade called, said he would take 10
    Complete enigmas wrapped in puzzles encrypted in language
    with sound but without shape or signature
    Kept files in his garage, on MS-DOS
    in a fire-proof pod, we thought it was odd
    Outside there was a shed with an Oppenheimer lock
    he apparently kept more wax then Madame Tussaud's
    We were in total awe, cause it blew our minds
    so many rhymes that were intricately designed
    He WAS Poet Laureate of his time
    and if you don't mind, I'd like to share some of his rhymes

    [*beat switches*]

    Alone in my room, looking through the 32X telescope zoom
    adjusting the focus of the moon
    One should not assume the philosophy of David Hume
    is nothing more then a subjective conclusion
    What is the maximum field rate application?
    the run away glaciation surrounding the ocean basin
    affects the population fluctuation
    on a continuous basis but that's just the basics
    The juxtaposition of Canibus' position
    the precision something no other has written
    Way above and beyond what was intended
    the unparalleled malleable enunciation of a sentence
    You didn't go to college obviously
    I can tell by your ungodly unintelligible terminology
    A remarkable odyssey, the rhymes of modern speeds
    when the brain orders the body not to breathe
    Your competency is not up to speed, you not in my league
    you couldn't possibly be hotter than me
    Or oppositely you're minus 25 degrees, you'd squeeze
    but the condensation makes rifle barrels freeze
    Allow me to speak figuratively, nigga please
    my intellectual properties are about the size of Greece
    Your counselor advised you not to speak
    my counselor advised me to keep rhymin until they stopped the beat
    In the words of Joseph Heller, "I learned how to write better"
    even though it sort of irked me
    He said he didn't understand the process of the imagination
    but he felt he was at its mercy
    Which exploits my point perfectly and certainly reinforces
    the reason why nobody's probably ever heard of me
    Couldn't understand what I mean by ill
    unless you try to translate what I print to film
    This is the line of will, the circle of time
    the cycle of eternity, the emergence of 1 mind
    Academic phonetics render critics tongue-tied
    Ive personified dry humor of cum-laude alumni
    A wise man sees failure as progress
    a fool divorces his knowledge and misses the logic
    And loses his soul in the process
    obsessed with nonsense with a caricature that has no content
    My style is masterful, multi-lateral
    I could battle a fool and be naturally cruel
    Words of scourn are a disastrous tool
    from an existentialist view, I'm a better rapper then you
    Grab the mic and rip your physical fabric in 2
    my attitude is fucked up but admirable
    Different methods interpreted into different forms
    from entirely different perceptions and seen from different norms
    Not just spittin a poem there's much more involved
    there's much more pieces of the puzzle for you to solve
    48 orders of mechanical laws
    and rays of creational cause, enhance the cadence of my bars
    Maybe I am self-absorbed
    but that's the effect, to find the cause you should ask my A&R
    Today is what it is, but only because yesterday was what it was
    permitting you heard of Beelzebub
    A tale of demons and drugs, pissy drunk in the club
    with the DJ doing the needle rub
    Chances are you'll never see me son
    yeah I know my names Canibus but I cant help you if you need a dub

    [*beat switches*]

    I came to holla at some big booty bitches
    and listen to the speakers thump, where you get conceited from?
    I'm so nice on the mic, they wanna beat me up
    its deep as fuck, I ain't seen it all but I've seen enough
    Really unbelievable stuff
    there's a lot of times where I wanna speak but I'm stuck
    I should leave this rap shit alone
    and kick my incredible rhymes in the privacy of my own home
    My imagination is my own
    the liberty to speak freely, lyrically on the microphone
    Wit a pen in my hand, I bring motion to the enneagram
    and become "Cani-millenium man"
    Engrave my back with the emperor's stamp
    been spittin scientific rap since the 17th century began
    Tryna' escape the wicked empire of Def Jam
    and the land where lyrics are bland and heretics hang
    Every warrior has an axe to bury
    but he has to learn to discern between enemy and adversary
    I said to myself, "Germaine this is insane
    its suicide its controlled flight into terrain"
    I fought to regain, control of the plain, but went up in a ball of flames
    and got banned from the hip hop hall of fame
    For 2 bars I kept hearin in my head
    over and over again, it cost me everything

    [*beat changes back to the original beat*]

    I'm convinced now that more then truth is at stake
    Where people create language that pretends to communicate
    Euphemisms are misunderstood as mistakes
    but its a bi-product of the ghetto music we make
    From an extroverted point of view I think its too late
    Hip Hop has never been the same since '88
    Since it became a lucrative profession there's a misconception
    that a movement in any direction is progression
    Even though of the potency of it lessens
    big money industries writing checks to suppress the question
    And nobody gives a fuck no more, no one goes to the book store
    ever since the confluence of Moore's Law
    But I stay in the lab, like Niels Bohr
    and his son Aage, Edward Lorenz and Leo Szilard
    Lyrically I took rap music and turned the knob
    to the right full throttle and added panache
    Why would I argue with my own conscience over the truth?
    that's like me telling myself don't tell me what to do
    Dialysis and analysis of battle emcees
    sometimes I say things I myself can't believe
    My lyrical is so skillfully elliptical
    I can understand how it makes you miserable
    You wonder why I never let you play your beats for me
    or why I keep my studio enshrouded in secrecy
    You wonder what's my infatuation with Alicia Keys
    "Canibus why don't you speak to me?"
    Yo, I meant it when I said no one can shine on a song that features me
    that's why I said it so vehemently
    You need to place the hate with respect
    I'm probably the best yet, Poet Laureate!!!

    [Sampled outro]
    Generally I take.. I go with the given..
    ya know with what comes to me .. over the celestial wireless ..
    whenever it comes, you're lucky when you get it..
