I feel like I’m just listening to the GTA radio

Plot twist: this guy is actually rap battling with his other 26 personalities.

6 years later and still banging this! Actually so good and you can see the styles he respects 😂

I have never, over the years, been able to decide if this is more skill, or more comedy. I keep coming back to try and figure it out, and only get more confused. Thanks !!!

“I’m a gangsta like Ryan’s toy review” Best line in the entire history of hiphop

Jokes aside, this is actually a pretty accurate guide to regional, cultural, and artistic differences of the defining styles of rap. Even if it's a bit, you showed a ton of versatility.

I wasn't expecting a video at this quality before clicking. Amazing job man.

I’m not gonna lie I have had UKposts for 7 years and have watched probably thousands of videos and this all day makes my top ten. Great content man, keep it up ❤.

this dude raps better drunk than i talk sober wtf

This man is not a group, he is the entire industry.

Bro the Drake shit aged like fins wine 😂

I come back to this video at least once a year. Mac is top tier man

His eminem on drugs was a good one

That eminem on drugs was on point 😂👍

Found him few years back and a subscriber since then. And this was the first vdo I saw off of him. A fan to your work, other raps are fire too🍻♥️

As another “The White Kid” this is fucking awesome. I’ve only ever really been good at learning other artist’s songs, but watching this really helps get the creative juices flowing.

That “Eminem on drugs” was PERFECT as hell

27 styles 27 million views Perfectly balanced, as all thing should be Edit: Yeah, not anymore

bro your mumble rap spoke to my soul. i felt that so deep. it was like my old friend on the mic. steven hawkins without that windows machine spittin fire my dude

All of these were good, some were particularly sick such as Eminem's (lyrics and flow/style on point), Midwest and West Coast Underground! Ripping on Drake was hilarious! You've got Mad Skills Mac. I've read a lot of comments, deservedly giving you props; but there's some serious love missing for Stephen "Seven" Sommers; dude also killed it with the beats!!

3:26 he straight up speakin Minecraft enchantment language

"I'm a gangsta, like Ryan's Toy Review" had me dead

Truely a masterpiece video ❤ love this so much ❤❤

Love coming back to this!

“I’m a gangster like Ryan’s Toy Reviews” now that’s bars lol

Man you gotta get drunk more often This video is lit

You made my day! I was so sad but now i’m happy thank you. And the Californian MC’s is spot on. ❤

I stumble across this video every once in a while and I listen to the whole thing every time!

I love how Miami trap is literally just rick ross

For the uk grime you forgot to threaten someone's nan

Awesome video Mac lethal!! U nailed all the raps

Nothing like Old School Rap!

This randomly came up on my recommendations and I'm happy it did 😂

Some of these remind me of GTA III radio stations lol

6 years later and still a banger

What a outstanding performance sir . Love from India ❤🎉

"I'm a gangster like Ryan's toy review" LMAO

Mumble rappers : Eyyy prr skrrrt 11 yrs old teenageboys/girls: ouuh shit that's deep

You're so talented! and #11 was crazy lol

Doesn't sound like many styles he sounds like an impressionist

*OLD-SCHOOL RAP NEEDS ITS OWN VIDEO*

When you scroll thru the gta v radio be like...

Holy hell man... that was phenomenal.... you had me on the floor at 9 + 9

fuck this video remided me how much i like the whole jazz rap scene, i mean a tribe called quest and ofc... a tribe called quest?

0:04 How I think I sing 3:26 How I actually sing

That mumble rap killed me😂

All these years later I still wanna hear his reggae.

DEL is SO on point

Your headphones fit perfectly on your head

This dude just dissed Drake outta nowhere, lmao

He's on another level 💯🔥🔥🔥

I always come back to this video like once every couple of years

" *Im a gangsta like Ryans toy review* " I completely lost it

Old Kanye: eee real hip-hop, man New Kanye: Bzzzzzzz, I’m bee

The 04:20 Jazz underground rap East-West banter awesome.

Brilliant & as a Brit I can tell you your UK Grime accent was spot on.

Me: Chilling in car GTA Radio:

“I’m a gangster like ryan’s toy review” Now this is an avengers level threat

6 years and this video is still a freaking treasure

Speechless. 🔥

He killed the Eminem on drugs part🔥

0:31 Snoop Dogg has left the chat 1:11 lil Jon has left the chat 3:42 Rick Ross has left the chat

ive watched this video a bunch of time throughout the years and I love every time

I like rap around songs like T-U-R-T-L-E power and jump around. Keeping the flow going starting with the last word of each verse takes talent

I feel like im in GTA San Andreas

I want an entire "Mac Lethal in the Style of Eminem on Drugs" album.

Sensacional Uma aula brilhante sobre RAP.

This cracked me up, dude ive been around to hear everyone of these. Hilarious. I was laughing so hard when club came up, by the end I was crying cause I was laughing so much. Great fun.

I am so grateful that UKposts recommended this to me

The EMINEM on drugs part is great🤣

Memories

G funk is totally Warren G haha. Love it. Your ghost face dope too!

You are right man for GTA VI rap radios...😂

*We need a full song for every single one of these styles*

Love the Del Impression. That dude needs more recognition.

I came back to listen to this. Still fire. Wish I could give more than one like

It’s fitting that Kanye has two of his own styles.

"Cause I sing about my mom like she's my girlfriend. My moms my girlfriend!" That was hilarious.

0:22 1:30 2:14 2:24 4:22 4:32 5:10 and 6:03 Are my favorites.

I need more of this Miami Trap Beat. How can I find something like this?

3:26 when your mom asks you where you've been the whole evening

I love how number 15 is literally just a Rick Ross diss

You are a Legend Mac Lethal ❤

Guys, welcome to the UKposts algorithm.

“Every rap song sounds the same!” Everyone with a brain:

MAN YOU HAVE SO MUCH TALENT AND YOU ARE SO FUNY TOO I FALL OFF MY CHAIR MAN !!!

Eminem...(on drugs) i laughed so hard at the fact that you had to clarify lol

"I bought my girl a luis vutton latte" 😂

His reaction 😂 great talent 👏

Man u got mad skills 👏!, I specialy liked the New Kanue West 😂. Genuies 😂, spot on man!!

3:26 He was speaking in cursive

Old kanye: nice sweet rhythms and beats New Kanye: earapes and talks about his fantasy

That was so on point. Best em and Ghostface impressions I ever heard!

I drank too much at 2am and watched this. Good video, very precise renditions of every style.

I love how Eminem is an own style

That mumble rap was pitch-corrected, then autotuned, then melodyned, then autotuned again, LOL

This man is insanely talented

You are so talented bro 🔥🔥🤝

Eminem impersonation was brutal. Plus, the lyrics were super accurste w Slim Shady's style
