"Freestyle rapper Harry Mack has received many kinds of reactions from audiences to his improvisation skills, but they all have one thing in common: utter disbelief. It's not far off from what he thought when he was introduced to freestyle rap as a kid. "What's the trick?" Mack recalls thinking. "I couldn't believe it was real." Freestyle rapping is the art of improvising lyrics and adapting them to a beat. Many rappers freestyle, but few take it to the level that Mack does. Mack weaves rap lyrics together using any random prompt: word suggestions from his audience, a street sign that may have caught his attention and even people's clothing. A spectator of Mack's may find their favorite hat featured in a line. And he can go for hours."
