WTF does "straight bars" mean? I mean, I'm 36 years old and grew up in Hialeah and O-Town, but I still don't know what the **** that means
In musical notation, a bar (or measure) is a segment of time corresponding to a specific number of beats in which each beat is represented by a particular note value and the boundaries of the bar are indicated by vertical bar lines.
Pop music is usually a 4 bar intro followed by two 16 verses then a 16 bar chorus. Rap, follows this. Typically you have a 4 bar intro followed by a 16 bar rap. Some rappers will do a 32 bar rap. Usually there are two verses per song.
"Straight bars" indicates a rapper who is not doing 16 or 32 bars but a longer series of bars, modifying this with the colloquial use of straight (meaning cogent, accurate, bluntness eg "straight talk") implies that the rapper "spit" or recited a long series of no-nonsense rhymes.

Don't think it's available anymore. Live videos don't stay on Instagram more than a day.
