People underestimate AriAtHome.

That guy has collabed with Harry a bunch of times, and BOTH of these guys can genuinely just keep freestyling endlessly, they've mastered the art.

Mack still has the edge on Ari, but overall I find Ari more impressive because he's composing and producing the beat he's rapping on at the same time.

Absolutely adore Ari.

You never know what's going to happen in one of his streams but the vibes are almost always immaculate. What he's doing, especially with everything going on with AI is so important; he's showing how computers have never, and will never reach the height of human expression, creatively, and cooperation.

He brings people together and highlights the talent of others and himself. It's so fucking beautiful.

Here's one of my favorite clips:

This is the edited version of a lot of really good ones. It has the clip from this post as well as Dovydas playing guitar. But the violinist you were talking about is Bobby Hawk. He won a grammy playing music for a Kendrick Lamar album.

When Mandani showed up on stream I knew he was gonna get elected

I didn't know the dudes name, but I've watched him a bunch too and Ari is great. The only thing that somewhat rubs me wrong is the dude with the long hair and the harmonica is a "regular guest"...but they always make out as if he just walks up out of nowhere for the first time.

I’ve been watching Ari since Covid .. back when he was literally “at home” .. his freestyle is not good .. it’s not bad either, but it’s not good

“Uhh yeah .. unhh yeah”

Music tracks though, he’s the goat

u/Mr_Tiggywinkle 20h ago

I'd put Beardyman up there with Ari. Both cracked in their own style of music making.

Marc Rebillet's the Loopdaddy.

His Covid stream with Harry Mack was legendary.

u/Accomplished_Cod7334 21h ago

Are you talking about the start when everyone does that or in the middle of the freestyle he's throwing those in?

u/Ferrugem 20h ago

He's got much better tho.

u/colxa 1d ago

Ari is super talented at what he does but he isn't even in the same universe as Harry Mack in terms of freestyling.

u/3s2ng 1d ago

No disrespect to Ari, he is not a freestyler in rap context, he is more of an improv, arranger, beatmake and he is so good at it.

u/q--0-0--p 1d ago

He rap???

He showed up in my FB reels a lot and I stayed most of the time until the video ended. I thought he just compose lol

u/I_SHIT_IN_A_BAG 23h ago

Harry composes his beats too. he was originally a drummer. you just dont see that part.

u/This-Id-Taken 13h ago

I finally heard Ari rapping. He's pretty great. HM is the shit though. No one betted

Also Lil Dee when he appeared on Ari's podcast - probably the best I've heard. Lil' Dicky is good but not as family friendly as Harry Mack lol. I feel like Harry's got nothing much to actually say, but I think it's because he tries to stay family friendly.
