You can see the words ooze out of his soul. Lock is a leader.

Locksmith is too smart for his own good.

Fire @8:00 ..... "You tell people your dreams, and they tell you some bad news !" Damn.

Truth be told. who can f with a person with wisdom riding a track so vicious? Locksmith is a true m.c. hands down

"What you call blasphemy I call necessary growth" (Locksmith 2017). Only a small population who can think for themselves can deeply understand this.

Walking dictionary and thesaurus. How does he put so many words together that rhyme and not only that... It makes sense.

Disaster is the one dislike

Locksmith is a lyrical fucking genius

Locksmith will never get old to me🙏🏾straight bars and real talk🔥💯

The vein on his neck make him look like hes angry af

"Try to empower your own art. They flooded me with offers, I started building my own ark" 🔥🔥🔥🔥 bruh 😒😒 Fuck levels, this dude is on another planet

hes spitting what everybody else is scared to say👀

I forgot to breath for like 3 minutes. 😲😲

I never heard a whack freestyle from this man.... Always fire!

Always bringing that fire! Lock and K Rino need to do an album together.

Holy fuck lock. fuck hooks bro, write books bro...

iamlocksmith: I am loving the knowledge of those of us that are starting ro wake up, being woven through out not only this freestyle (which is atill leaving me in disbelief after just finishing watching it for the 3rd time. lol) but your recent album as well. Please dont stop man,, extremely happy to see an artist with integrity. You very easily could continue your spiritual path privately like so many of us right now, but for someone with your gifts to show everyone listening to your music whats truly the realest of the real in this life is very much appreciated. That has to be the most underrated, and probably unnoticed by many, the biggest show of love to your fans I've seen from an artist. Much love to yourself and everyone close to you.

If anyone is starting a revolution through hip hop it's this guy. Nobody above him in the game right now with his knowledge and flow.

He is such an inspiration!

Locksmith....I'm so sorry for being ignorant to your existence.

Rip Dj Kay Slay he kept the door open for real hip hop and true artist that deserved to be heard and underground artist to have a shot to be heard!

In the top 5 lyricalist of all time ❤

Lock just blessed my cerebral with mad knowledge

this shits honestly fucking amazing

Anyone reading this is a real one. keep goin

RESURRECTING THE WAKE UP SHOW! Thanks locksmith. God bless Hip Hop

2017 Rappers glad Locksmith is underground

one of the best artists out here today. A shame that what he speaks about will never be mainstream. I've been a fan ever since i watched him battle on grindtime. about to go get that Olive Branch right now. btw Kay Slay sounded old and tired. The chick next to him was feeling it though.

"You use to cuff your jeans now you're Banana Republic/Now they laugh at you throwing bananas in public"..Damn

Lock Ness MONSTER!!!!!!!!

LITERALLY TEARS IN MY EARS ! WHOOP - WHOOP .

This shit should have millions of views... Smh.. He just raised the bar once again.. to where very few can reach... He murdered that shit......

locksmith is why i take the time to find underground artists and ignore the featured new releases.

Long Live Legendary Locksmith

Locksmith is a beast, always coming with great content!!

I need a damn second brain for anything he does, one to listen one to catch all the shit that goes over my head.

you are simply the greatest i have seen heard and felt, much love from Australlia!

It's like it was written in history for Locksmith to make this much sense on the mic. He unexplainable talented from his word play to the messages in his rhymes. He's nothing short of extraordinary.

yooooo. This dude is the truth. Every single bar he spit was real. A yo, ma nigga murdered the same beat idk how many times. While the DJ was trying to revive the beat he just kept murdering it lmao. And then he said "throw another beat".lmao, and fukin murdered that shit too. yo respect from the Bronx Locksmith. You got a new fan.

Unbelievable. SHM Locksmith is not one of the top rapper in the world today. he is just at another level lyrically

Have never been more excited to watch a video for the first time.

this freestyle is best ive ever seen. So underrated, this freeestyle deserves over millions of views!

on fire lock,never disappoints #respect

Glad to be a fan. Lot of gems dropped in this. That last line hit me "you tell a nigga your dreams he tell you some bad news. I guess thats why I keep em to myself & I'll never show the cards that I'm delt." My life right now; maybe I can make a song with lock on day. This nigga probably top 10 all time lyrically.

This brotha is saying so much truth I had to watch this like 10 times and keep hearing something new. Unreal talent!

Conscious rap dude, shit the world needs to hear. You got my respect (not that it matters), but you just jumped up to like my top 10 favorite rappers and this is the first Ive heard. The message, the blunt, honest way of carrying that message, and the fact you spit facts has me hooked. Ill be checking ouy olive branch. Much love bro

That Banana verse was Bananas!!🔥🔥🔥 He doesn't spit fire, he spit Brimstone and Lava🔥🔥🔥❤❤❤

Lyrical he's the goat no question 🔥🔥💯

Much respect to Lock man. Always bringing the bars, keeping the culture alive. Why this kind of work doesn't get more attention, I'll never know.

I been following him since day one . Will allways keep up with his talent

good shit man lock always bring bars

MY BOY! Always killing it! 🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯

I've only just discovered Locksmith this week. I'm amazed

just holy cow man. This is amazing

I know it's only dropped a week ago but it should be at a couple million views imo🔥💯

Southern rap can be traced back to West African syntax. Wow.

I Don't See How ANYBODY Can Hate This Mans Talent Or Movement Thank You For Being From The Bay Area and Being LYRICAL and Speaking The TRUTH Locksmith I'm a Fan For LIFE!!!

I'm so happy to hear real Mc's like him keep real hip hop alive. #Locksmith 2020

Who in their right mind pushed a thumbs down ? Stop using the drugs !

you know lock is spittiin that fire when his neck veins start popping out

happy to see your touring through Athens, ga! Cant wait to see this man live! Every time I hear you Rap, it is mind blowing, more depth in one bar then in whole songs

I listen to him and all of a sudden Life makes sense. This is what rap is what rap is about

Never clicked a notification so fast 💨

ka ka ka killed it brother holy shit! Big ups from new Zealand

Preach!! This like a whole years worth of sermons. Straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Best rapper I have ever listened to, the content is unreal the knowledge is prophet like, there is none that comes close. He's taking a massive loss even just being how he is. How easy it is to conform to what they want you to be.

Best rapper in the underground

Locksmith got this s*** locked down...

This isn't even rap, it's so far beyond that. So glad I found you, can't stop listening 💯💯

best freestyle of 2017 imo. I've watched this video over a 100 times

she came so many times lol.

🔥🔥🔥🔥

This needs much more than 500k views. Amazing

you can tell a men is educated by his words. ..as I get my books...highly motivated and inspired. .

lock you're the best lyricist alive hands down

Call da fire department!! That man burnt that shit down!!

Watch this at least once a week, and just sit here and shake my head the whole time.

When I met you at Sway Day a couple years ago, I told you I think you're one of the best to ever do it. I definitely still stand by that statement. You have have bars forever bruh, your rhyme schemes and punchlines always leave me speechless. Good shit as always

Gawd dayuuuuumm....

this guy progress for better. #oliveranch people

Who else still on this phenomenal freestyle in 2021?

One of the greatest.

Richmond California!

Can somebody write down the lyrics here?

much love homie❤️

Locksmith is one of the Bay Area artists with sick lyrics. He standouts from the rest Bay Area rappers. Very underrated. 👍🏽

😭😭😭 mainstream rapper's face after listening dis freestyle... the ain't coming close

YOOO THEY DIDN"T HAVE ENOUGH BEAT FOR HIM

this why I cant stand dudes talkin bout hip hops dead. naw man shit aint dead, its alive and thriving thanks to brothers like locksmith. real rappers just don't get any play in the mainstream, but the true shit is out there, just godda do some more digging these days. This brother just dont quit man, he devours beats and cuts with his rhymes, his lyrics smash the dreams of these young mumbler rappers beggin for a come up. Locksmiths got the real poet in him, he got that real fury runnin through his veins, is that Afghan blood, brother just wont quit, rips up a beat and then demands another right off the bat. this is real freestyling man, I hope more youngsters come across this shit and get inspired to learn how to construct interesting rhymes and freestyle.

This man right here ... keeps my faith in hip hop .

christ turn up the volume on those beats.

if you look closely, his neck veins keep growing and growing

Dope shit as always

this was needed thanks ... Jah bless

Who else was watching the lady and the dudes neck the whole time..

Lock would eat any mainstream rapper alive Kendrick included

Locksmith been dope for a while... Great bars.

This is what real artist sound like :) its been a while since i felt this vibe
