With a lot of talk surrounding the "2013 Freshman Class', XXL now gives us the final two installments of their legendary cypher videos featuring Logic, Dizzy Wright, Trinidad Jame$, Kirko Bangz, Schoolboy Q, and Angel Haze. It's definitely not the best year for cyphers by any means. However, who do you think did the best? Logic has my vote. REWIND: 2013 XXL Freshmen Cyphers [Episode 1] The post Video: XXL's 2013 Freshman Class Cypher Series (Part 2/3) appeared first on TAPEDECK .

Hit-Boy is apparently serious about his rapping skills as he has gathered a ridiculous cast for a new cut called “Cypher”. Featuring verses from the likes of Schoolboy Q, Redman, Method Man, Raekwon, Xzibit, Rick Ross, and Casey Veggies among others, this will make any fan on the varied hip-hop spectrum happy. 90’s rap fans will find a lot to enjoy here. This will appear on All I’ve Ever Dreamed Of, a showcase of Hit-Boy’s label HS87.

Yeah that's right you read that SEO title right, the song you have invested into learning more about has 11 rappers on one track (including unlisted HS87 artists). When Hit-Boy puts together a posse cut I mean HE PUTS TOGETHER A POSSE CUT. For his upcoming label compilation album, the producer/rapper is pushing limits both instrumentally and lyrically. Today we get a sneak peak off the upcoming album with a song Hit-Boy has rightfully titled Cypher. I don't think there's too people in the game right now that have the balls [...]

Max Bell finds the revulsion invigorating. Another year. Another BET awards. Another round of ciphers. I give you my thoughts off the top of the dome. But really though, off the top of the dome. Seriously, I didn't write this, look at it, think about it, and then try to make it sound better or clever. Can you imagine how terrible it would be if I did? Exactly. "Grand Hustle" Trae [...]

Chaque année c'est la même chose, la session Cyphers du Bet Hip-Hop Awards est sûrement l'une des plus attendue. Un principe, un seul, des rappeurs qui ont de la bouteille rencontrent des rappeurs qui vont avoir de la bouteille et posent sur un beat basique en freestyle. Ici nous avons encore de très bonnes rencontres, Mac Miller aux côtés de Schoolboy Q avec l'énorme Mystikal sur la même session, RZA & A$AP Rocky avec une ribambelle d'autres rappeurs, ou encore les Ruff Ryders (Mook, Cassidy, [...]

The highlight of the BET Awards has been The Cypher the past couple years. A few years back, the one with Lupe, Styles P, and Papoose was fire . And last year, the Shady Records crew killed it. The 2012 ceremony is taking place on October 9th and will be hosted by jokeman Mike Epps . The Cypher lineup has a few already set "teams", but the other MC's will be paired up. They better put A$AP and RZA on the same jawn. You know Kosha Dillz will be with RZA no doubt. Check [...]
![[Video] Pivot Gang: Cypher/Jam Session](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4530555_lg.jpg)
Chicago crew Pivot Gang recently sent over a clip of them in a form that we rarely see in Hip-Hop today, a cypher. The BET Award Show cypher has definitely been a spectacle over the past couple years, but each year it becomes more obvious the artists are not freestyling. Whether on a radio show, or at a show, many artists these days choose to spit written verses in 'freestyle' form, which does not constitute a true freestyle. Well, Pivot gang is here with all real freestyles as well as live instrumentation from Saba, for an organic look into one of Chicago's rising [...]

Cruel Summer dropped today and you should go BUY that shit and support your artists. That being said the G.O.O.D. Music crew did a cypher for Funkmaster Flex and it is NUTSSSS.

The Fresh Heir and The Collab Projekt started the #12For12 movement in Boston to spotlight some of the talent their city has. Many have the misconception that no one from Boston is really buzzing, but by watching the cypher above you'll quickly realize that the scene is popping more than ever! Rappers with different stlyes and backgrounds have joined forces to achieve recognition and make a big splash on a national scale, nothing can't stop them now so expect more from them soon!

HubCitySwift, who was a participant in our first iLS hiphop cypher, dropped his latest album "Ode to the East." The album is full of dope production, which makes the album worth a listen in itself, and then Swift's much improved flow over the top is just another great addition to the whole package. HubCitySwift is another example of dope music coming out of Compton, he's definitely getting better and better with each release. Be sure to check out "Ode to the East" below and be on the lookout for more from HubCitySwift in the near future... [...]
TeamBackPack put on a live show recently and hit us up with some footage from it featuring Duckworth and RGLND. The video covers Duckworth and RGLND's performance of the track "Hoverboard" produced by Half Black. It's some dope visuals from what I'm sure was an even better live show put on by TeamBackPack. Be sure to check out TeamBackPack.net for cyphers and news on more live shows...
Teambackpack dropped another cypher for you all, this time featuring Hopsin and Dizzy Wright. Hopsin, as you can clearly hear/see, is not in the best of moods during the cypher, almost like he just heard all the bad news he raps about before going on, but either way he still delivers a decent bit of rhymes. Besides Hopsin's intro, Dizzy Wright definitely does some good work on this cypher produced by DJ Hoppa. Be sure to check out the latest cypher from TeamBackPack above and peep their site teambackpack.net for the latest news/videos...
