    1. Daaaanm! Shady, Slaughterhouse & Yela murded this! Hottest shit to be on BET since the basement got borded up!

    2. Slaughterhouse been around in the Underground and this is what happens when the underground meets the main stream world…they literally destroy any main stream rapper who thinks they are hot..Eminem of course being around and a true hip hop never sold out the formula for wack punch lines..and Slaughterhouse are boys with the one and only Immortal Technique..this cypher was by far the best of the night no question.and Em straight killed it. with a real free style

    3. The Slaughterhouse/Shady debut album gonna change the game. Same dudes that hated gonna be the same ones to tag along

    4. I m glad someone with the power EM has signed SH. Lyricism is coming back slowly. We wont steal all the airwaves back but we ll make it a good balance again when the fad of pop ish slows down. Hip hop never died, radio just stopped rotating the lyrical ish too much of a business now, its stations paying bills and lyrical records dont pay bills.

      This was incredible

      1. Well said…it’s all about BALANCE!

        There’s always been dope and wack ish (wack ish in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s) but in the past it was 70-30 dope to wack and 2004-present it’s been about 85-15 wack to solid/dope ish in the mainstream (if not 90-95 wack).

        Great Cypher: Now Em listen up…SIGN ELZHI from Detroit and your team gets THAT MUCH SICKER…Em, Crooked I, Royce, Budden, Ortiz, Elzhi, Yela (not my cup of team per se but unique @ least and decent at times, plus can rep for the south)…Hell bring in One Be Lo as well from Michigan and Apollo Brown/Black Milk from Michigan for production?

        ELZHI to Shady would continue this theme of some very good to great lyricists signing to majors

    5. Man theres wayyy more positive comments than I actually thought there would be! Usually if this site ever mentions Eminem there are haters comin out the woodwork… “Oo hes too old, hes washed up, why did he sign Slaughterhouse”… I bet some of those same people are dropping positive comments on here now! Anyway theres no way you can hate on SHADY 2.0! Hardest Label Out and Eminem is the Best Rapper Alive! Young Money Who???

    6. this was incredible, cant believe em was using the old voice and cadence it soundd amazing, 6 rappers who rap great, they kinda played arounda bit here but it was all incredible i would give 6 stars if i kood one for each man

    7. Tried by 12. Like D12. (If you know what I mean).
      But on the real it feels good to hear that old voice back on the mic… proof that is only when it’s time for kicking the real. with the realest; DJ PREMIER !!!!!

    8. DAMN!!! Eminem can’t be human, he’s a robot with a mission to destroy every single rapper out there. Most technically gifted rapper of all times. Slaughterhouse ripped it, too. Anyone who says that Joey doesn’t belong into the group should kill themselves after this. Eminem & Joey took it to a whole new level, I can’t fucking wait for their Shady debut.

    9. Damn! Eminem jus went magma on dat shit, got mad respect for slaughterhouse too… Some1 plz remind me why Cory Gunz signed with young money!!!!!

    10. GOTDAMNNNNNN, Slaughter em and Catfish murdered the shit out that shit!!!!!! its always great to see rappers with such a chemistry together!

      Shady 2.0 = future

    11. Good Morning eargasim.
      I have to listen to this a hundred times, i gotta say wil they cock it better? a hammer to the letter? trio just made chedder, babies still dying chemtrail weather.

    12. Pretty damn fire especially compared to all the other cyphers as a whole…

      I really wish Em would rap like THIS (And “The Warning”, 2009 BET Cypher with Mos & Black Thought, On Fire, Goin Through Changes, Deja Vu, Westwood appearances the last 2 years in UK) more often THESE days (obv he was AMAZING 90-95% of the time from 96-03)…

      Everyone here was dope although Yela was better in least years (not usually a fan although @ least he’s unique)…

      BET LISTEN UP FOR NEXT YEAR:

      ELZHI (Syllable Scientist would MURDER it)
      DIABOLIC
      TONEDEFF
      One Be Lo
      Copywrite
      Apathy
      Louis Logic
      Juice (Chi town underground legend who KILLS cyphers)
      Percee-P
      Blu
      Phonte
      Reef the Lost Cauze (GREAT battle rapper)
      Sly Boogie
      Masta Ace
      Kool G Rap
      Pharoahe Monch
      Craig G
      Rakim
      Brother Ali

      There are literally 50-100 more I could list that can kill Cyphers a la the Shady 2.0 Click

    13. Respect for demanding a cut Joe Budden an Premier….that beat…Snake Charming Hypnotism 🙂 and am Gagging to scratch to it!!!! Big Upz…An Once Again :))) HipHop Is Not Dead!!! 🙂 Peace X

    14. holy shit!! best freestyles ever all in one room. i would hate to be at Apache against these dudes.

      my vote:
      #1 Royce the 5’9”
      2 Joe Budden
      3 Eminem
      4 Crooked i
      5 Joel ortiz
      6. Yelawolf

      1. Eminem’s verse was perfection from all rapping standpoints. It can’t get better than that. Nobody mastered the language like him. Anyone who tries to deny that, hates Hip Hop.

    15. after watching this…this made me more angry and gave me more passion to write some good verses…i just wrote like 3 in an hour haha
      motivation right hurr

    16. wow, who copied royce or crooked I? I never really listened to crooked I, but royce raps with that flow all the time these days.

    17. No one cares about your vote on who did the best Verse in a Cypher.

      Get it together and get your name up there and actually spit something off the top and wow the crowd.

      Until you do that. No one wants to hear your opinion.

    18. eminem goes in, but royce and budden went harder.
      eminems 2009 cypher was better

      1) Royce Da 5’9″
      2) Joe Budden
      3)Eminem
      4)Crook
      5) Yela
      6) joell
      but they all killed it
