This is such a good point. Unattainable cypher-icon while alive, performative grief for god-death, name on a list.

A circle of rappers freestyling, taking turns. From the spelling of "cipher" — implying a closed ring of code-sharing.

"BET cyphers were peak hip-hop in the 2000s."

Origin: Five-Percent Nation philosophy ("the cipher" = a complete circle of knowledge); adopted into hip-hop by KRS-One et al. in the 1980s.
