Mad!!!...That line should be in a musical in 2017 now chiming in to hear Ed rapiing free style and the dude called Devlin, is a devilshly fast & lyricaly deadly rap artist!!!
Rapper, singer, performer, artist Ed Sheeran's one of a kind he really is makes me proud to know he's British and Devlin is wasted potential he's an extremely talented rapper and poet.
imagine being those people and not knowing the absolute talent of those two infront of you. i would be a drunken mess of musical emotion had i whitenessed that.
+Alicia Gray I think Jasmin on the right of the screen realised she was chilling with 2 of the most talented artists in the u.k., even if no one else realised it!!
Real talk i remember watching this already believing they would blow Ed have to admit knew he would blow but nowhere near the extent he has But i watched this and thought id love to have been in the room witnessing stars Followed both from the jummmmmmmp
Yeah he RELEASED it a year later. Which means he was probably in the process of writing it at the time of this video. Devlin is spitting bars from his songs as well. No freestyle rapper goes into a freestyle without something written or at least an outline. Watch an interview with any big rapper.
Ed did right by coming back home and getting Devlin the bag! Ed Sheeran would never have been given a chance if not for Jamal Edwards and Devlin and the whole Grime scene embracing him. #GreatBritishBarOff
Love this, both guys are great. For those saying Ed is better, most of his 'freestyle' is just his songs, Devlin was true freestyle, love the Billie Piper and Final Destination references.
The coolest thing about this video (besides their crazy talent) is this is before hardly anyone knew who Ed or Dev were... two years later, Ed's played the Olympics, invading the US, Dev's big album is about to drop... lot of things change in two years =p
I've watched/listened to this so many times over the years and EVERY time I get goosebumps! Especially the end part when Devlin get's Ed to speed up the tempo. So f***ing hype, its nuts! Two of the talented artists in the world. How can there be 326 morons that have pushed the dislike button on this?
you do realise that all the stuff that Ed says is just lyrics from his own songs, so he's bound to sound smooth, Devlin's stuff is more freestyle than it is lyrics
I love the fact that Ed is so in control, he is surrounded by Pepsi but his musical genius is faltless regardless. Idk if he is flying but either way what a boss. ED🐐👍🏼
No musicality in Devlins bars? He can spit fast but that don't mean it's good to listen to. After 30secs my head aches so i fw to Sheeran with 2 feet on the Devlin breaks! Now Eds headlining stadiums with skilz he don't need breaks!
Who else is on an old Devlin run 🏃♂️ 🔥
Miss him. He was such a legend and an incredible writer/performer
Me as well
Starting mine now 🙇🏽♂️
On one eating my breaky ahahha
Why did he stop putting as much music out
Here I am 13 years later listening to this piece of history whilst sat in the bath convinced I can still make it in life
lol i aggree bud
You still can bro
Ha same bro 😂
As long as you can convince yourself your halfway there
Same as 😂
"They say I'm up and coming like I'm fucking in an elevator" Love it!
Mad!!!...That line should be in a musical in 2017 now chiming in to hear Ed rapiing free style and the dude called Devlin, is a devilshly fast & lyricaly deadly rap artist!!!
The Great British Bar Off unlocked some core memories with videos like these. Hope anyone wandering around CZcams like me will find these gems again 🫡
ChannelU for life
Was listening to Devlin when nobody knew him as a kid brings back serious memories. Wiley Diss was a good one
stumbling across this gem at 3 in the morning, mad bars from both of them
No Kanye stop lying
THE TWO MOST TALENTED UK ARTISTS EVER. This is really uk history. Devlin is the best lyricist ive ever heard.
Some say devlin is still there telling ed to speed his guitair playing up to this day.

This comment : Priceless
+Tom Spencer didnt bang
all we know is he's called the stig
norris cole
norris cole 😅😅😅
I love looking at videos from eds past It reminds me of the good old times when only a few people new him
2023 you can’t help but nod your head to lyrical greatness
Devlin the incredible arm flailing tube man
The best part of this video is that no-one realises Example is filming it!
hes a loud fucker he is, if its him who is laughing
always wondered that 😂
Devlin & Ed superb collaboration. Lyrical geniuses.
Here after the recent collabo on SBTV reminiscing.
How talented is Ed? Seriously the guy's got skills and no attitude, hope fame doesn't change him cuz he's on the way to the top for real x
And now he’s at the top lol and the same guy lol
@@Lou-iq7yt I read the above comment and noticed it was 11yrs ago, I was like damn nothing's changed ❤️
This aged well.
what a video, been coming back here regularly since 2011! two absolute legends!
Fuck me that was immense, intense and has left me in suspense.
I spit bars too.. mostly Mars bars but I can undo bras too
you rhymed too with too.............
BananaDockery The intention was clearly to rhyme Bars with Bras.
+Wayne Nuttall Your bars are shit Wayne.
+Quentin McBullwinkle When I was a kid I had a mate called billy
But I lost intrest in him and found an intrest in my willy.
Do you like my "bars"?
+BananaDockery Yo.......yo he rhymed too with too, he hasnt got a clue, hes just a silly poo, who you want to DO.......... bad stuff too.
When I get pissed off and mad as hell,
My mind spins fast like a carousel,
I'll smoke a spliff and crack open a San Miguel 🍁🍺
ÐØV∆OGËDYR 👌🏼
....Then go and write some new bars 'cause these are whack as hell ??
These guys got talent. They bounce off each other so well.
"They say im up and coming like im f***ing in an elevator" Ed sheeran what a dude!!
Remember this from back in the day. Can't believe how far they went in their careers, to seeing the new rooftop back-to-back session
Ed smashed it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ed Sheeran is one of the best lyricists in the UK. A real storyteller. Hope he blows the fuck up and gets the recognition he deserves
Done well there
Lol yeah you could say he got pretty big haha Ed Sheeran is one of the biggest names in the world
He definitely did lol
Devlin could get a job bottom right of ur tele at 4am
Brickktopp 😂😂😂 after the 5 seconds of confusion made me chuckle
Brickktopp Brillant. :D
Quality comment
hahahahahaha
Looool 😂
Love this ...True artists. Real Vibe!!!
This is by far my favorite freestyle video ever!
being from the US, its really hard to find talent like this. Been following Devz for a while, but Ed Sheeran is new to me and damn I am impressed
Mad how this was 10 years ago. Time flies.
I swear the girl on the right has been sipping that drink for ages 😂
sit down m8 your going to get roasted she thirsty 😅😅😅😅🔥🔥
Rapper, singer, performer, artist Ed Sheeran's one of a kind he really is makes me proud to know he's British and Devlin is wasted potential he's an extremely talented rapper and poet.
ed sheeran is amazing and needs to be recognised soon.
I pray you placed a bet 🙏❤️😎🤪
When you realize example is recording this xD
he isn't...
He is though. You can clearly hear him laugh
It’s July 2022 and i’m still here, Joy to my ears at the age of 10 and still here till this day, Long live Devlin, Grandad of grime.
The last two minutes are the best hands down!
still loving this tune what id give to be back stage with you lads
"They say I'm up and coming like i'm fucking in an elevator"
Ed I fucking love you
These guys are TRUE ARTISTS.
I love how when this was uploaded Ed Sheeran was a nobody and people were here to listen to Devlin
Devlin d claw speccing for days
my mans getting spec transferred
Osrs hahaha
imagine being those people and not knowing the absolute talent of those two infront of you. i would be a drunken mess of musical emotion had i whitenessed that.
+Alicia Gray I think Jasmin on the right of the screen realised she was chilling with 2 of the most talented artists in the u.k., even if no one else realised it!!
They're all mates, of course they realise how talented each other are.
Real talk i remember watching this already believing they would blow
Ed have to admit knew he would blow but nowhere near the extent he has
But i watched this and thought id love to have been in the room witnessing stars
Followed both from the jummmmmmmp
just increadible truly awesome they need to do a full album together
duuuude thank you for uploading this.
This is gold 😍
omg. dev killed it
Still one of my favourite things on youtube!
Ed just rapping the you need me I don't need you, in first verse
He released you need me I don't need you a year later he was going off the top in this video
Reece Turner this was before the last verse was created
Yeah he RELEASED it a year later. Which means he was probably in the process of writing it at the time of this video. Devlin is spitting bars from his songs as well. No freestyle rapper goes into a freestyle without something written or at least an outline. Watch an interview with any big rapper.
Can we just appreciate Eminem for a second here
lmao ed wasnt going off top
devlin is one of the most wasted talents in the grime scene he could of achieved anything possibly the best lyricist in the world
Why is he waisted?
Ed Sheeran live
TWOALANGE I dunno about the best in the world, shorty horrorhs pukka with word play and then you got Eminem.
out of the uk it would be devlin lyrics wise and stormzy a close second
nathan lynch Bro fuck off about stormzy second best ahhhaa
2 of them are brilliant
devlin is just amazing
Ed did right by coming back home and getting Devlin the bag! Ed Sheeran would never have been given a chance if not for Jamal Edwards and Devlin and the whole Grime scene embracing him. #GreatBritishBarOff
devlin powering all windmills with hands since 2010...
i love how many songs are included here
his bars about spliff an san miguel is the best bit
Love this, both guys are great. For those saying Ed is better, most of his 'freestyle' is just his songs, Devlin was true freestyle, love the Billie Piper and Final Destination references.
The coolest thing about this video (besides their crazy talent) is this is before hardly anyone knew who Ed or Dev were... two years later, Ed's played the Olympics, invading the US, Dev's big album is about to drop... lot of things change in two years =p
Ed kills it, he's so smooth
Devlin and Ed Sheeran go so hard, I LOVE them
1:15 priceless
why?
Crazy Jokerz because of the elevator joke
If you watch Devlin's parts with no music he looks hilarious with the hand gestures
Devlin is just too good!
Genuine thank you for explaining that, have wondered many times in the past haha.
Dev spotted the talent early
Ian Wright in the background there too? 😂
Love from New Zealand
stfu
I've watched/listened to this so many times over the years and EVERY time I get goosebumps! Especially the end part when Devlin get's Ed to speed up the tempo. So f***ing hype, its nuts! Two of the talented artists in the world. How can there be 326 morons that have pushed the dislike button on this?
Spot on
4:55 Dude in the white shirt drops a pill
Deon 3K47 and again at 7:43 lol

You CIA fam?
Either that or he's eating a sly bogie lol
"Everyones the same..even the queen takes a shit"..open your eyes. Educate yourself about the truth
touch sanctimonious...
Buggsey malone
this is awwweeesome!
they are brilliant together!!
Example is filming this, listen to the laugh you can tell
no, Example is there. You see Example walking around at the end and you also see the guy who is filming RIGHT at the end
sick rap battlee but that foot tapping towards the end made me laugh so hard lmfao bttw im high..
I laughed at this comment a lot more than I should have done, oh my

I love how this guy chokes at some points but still keeps going and owns it XD

Devlin ! ❤
Example's loving it
Is Example recording this? I have watched this video hundreds of times over years but have only just realised this.
you do realise that all the stuff that Ed says is just lyrics from his own songs, so he's bound to sound smooth, Devlin's stuff is more freestyle than it is lyrics
Sounds like it hadn't been released by the way the guys are acting
This is sooo cooool
I love the fact that Ed is so in control, he is surrounded by Pepsi but his musical genius is faltless regardless. Idk if he is flying but either way what a boss. ED🐐👍🏼
Ed gets cut off at the end....
Back when Ed was sick
"Everyone's the same, even the Queen takes a shit." -Ed
both brilliant
Devlin was good and ryming well but his timing was wayyyy off however ed was completely in time and ryming just as well so I'm gonna say ed won :)
+Molly Jones it's bar for bar, not a vs.
+Molly Jones Ed was playing at the pace that he wrote the music, dev was adding to a song that wasnt his own, i think that takes some real talent :)
+Molly Jones literally every bar Ed used was pre-written...
+Walter White IT WAS ALL PRE WRITTEN DEV WAS JUST SPITTING HIS SHIT SO WAS ED WASNT EVEN A BATTLE
If this was a battle devlin would ruin him, eds good at rapping for a singer..
But it’s not
London Underground ITCH FM
Ennit man wtf 😂😂😂
Jheeeeeeeze incredible!

Arron Lowe Those ate my crocks 😤

No musicality in Devlins bars? He can spit fast but that don't mean it's good to listen to. After 30secs my head aches so i fw to Sheeran with 2 feet on the Devlin breaks! Now Eds headlining stadiums with skilz he don't need breaks!
this is awesome
Geez, this is too good...
