Premeditation is apart of battle rapping, KRS 1 said this...if you are not going to use it...why write it down...for a track later? Please, when you battle rap for a living...trust me, you will have punches for days, multi-rhyme schemes for days. True freestyles are only prevalent in cyphers, or just sitting around having fun with your homeboys...which also prompts creativity in helping you develop more creative concepts and ideas. Pure freestyle battle rap? I freestyle with my boys all day, and i never use my "for-real" material, because we are learning from each other and just having fun...but in a serious battle rap, trust me...I have bars for days, and i improv...mix and match schemes ect.

No, thats not what im saying...but if youve been writing constantly, there is no need to recycle...you learn from every battle. You opponent just may say some creative shit...this shows you your weaknesses...where you are venerable in some aspect. The next battle, im sure you will be prepared for it...just as rabbit was in 8 mile...lol (really didnt mean to use that, i couldnt resist). I know a dude that does nothing but sit around and create punches all day and practices his wordplay off of normal everyday shit...is he doing it for them not to be used later? Hell no, he battle raps for the love of it and also to feed his kids...lol. Its not cheating, its called being prepared...especially when you have a couple of thousand on the table...who wants to "blah blah blah coming through, blah blah blah you know what im sayin, blah blah blah nigga!" I mean really, lets be real.
