UK rap royalty Snap Capone and rising star Backroad Gee go back to back for an explosive Voice of The Streets freestyle on Kenny Allstar’s 1xtra show.
Snap drops in first, with an intricate and well-structured verse that showcases his craftsmanship from multiple angles. He drifts in out of an array of flows, floating around the pockets of the hard-hitting instrumental, placing perfectly timed punch lines throughout.
Capone’s first verse reaches a climax as he rolls into a duo syllable rhyming scheme which causes the studio to erupt before flowing into his second beat.
Backroad Gee supplies nothing but energies throughout, initially bringing his animated hype to adlibs on Snap Capone’s verse. When he eventually drops into his freestyle, he ups the animation and energy levels and delivers an enthralling performance.
His style is so authentic and natural, the freestyle feels like a stream of consciousness and sounds, which fit together effortlessly and make perfect sense. BackRoad Gee is an incredibly interesting and intriguing artist and the intrigue grows with each piece of music we hear from him.
This is a great fusion of the generations, the support and appreciation for each other’s individual craft is genuine and evident throughout this nine-minute freestyle and the pair feed off of each other’s energy well.
This one is a must-see! Watch the freestyle above.
