FREEWAY - PHILADELPHIA FREEWAY

the track w/ Peedi Crakk, "Flipside", is hot but i've seen it elsewhere called "Cactus Juice", which is a way better title. "On My Own" has a nice Midnight Marauders sample and Nelly manages to not really make much of an impression.

for some reason, "Line Em Up" is a bonus track at the end of the album...i know it's been all over mixtapes, but it hasn't been officially released anywhere (besides the 12"), has it?

the Roc insert sez "'What We Do Is Wrong' The Movie coming Fall 2003"...oh jeez

listening to the track w/ Young Gunz....Neef is way better than Young Chris, or at least less embarrassing, i dunno why Chris gets all the guest spots.

this is the first time i've bothered to buy a Roc-a-fella album not by Jay-Z. and i had to get it on day 1 to show my support..because i definitely want it to sell better than the average Beans or Bleek album. probably won't do as well as the Cam'ron record did, though. but i'm happy he's doing good.

and shit, dude has a NECK BEARD. c'mon, you indie fucks, it's the closest you'll ever get to seeing Neutral Milk Hotel on the charts.

heh, i think Free just said the cops "tried to put cuffs on my ass literally"

the other bonus track is lifted from Mariah's album and it's listed on the back like this:

"YOU GOT ME FEATURING MARIAH CAREY, FREEWAY AND JAY-Z"

so nice of Free to feature himself, har har. i kinda like the combination of Mariah's silly high voice and Blaze's silly high vocal samples. hehe, he just referenced Winnie The Pooh.

he needs your love

what was this song i heard on the radio today that sounded like freeway (99.9% sure it was him) with what sounds like some electro marvin gaye sample (or some other early 80s boogie rn'b track and the chorus was something like "some girls..."

and what was the sample?

i had the original sample all along. it's Marvin Gaye "Sanctified Lady" from his odds and ends compilation "Dream of a Lifetime"

ha that dk post !!

fuck yeah

i suspect project pat is getting a couple extra xmas cards this year

haha i'm so sick of this already

eh. gettin' me all excited for nothin'. really nothing Free's leaked in the past 2 years has been as good as even the deep cuts on Philadelphia Freeway, let alone "What We Do" or "Flipside."

i was way too ready for some chunky rap to happen ;_;

rip free

MANG

one of the best artists of the decade IMO

seriously!

i may semi-ironically bite drake & sarge's gucci list and do a 'best freeway songs of 2009' thing, because he's put out well over 100 songs in the past year.

dude please do that. I've enjoyed about everything he's put out this year, but the sheer amount of shit there is prevents me from going back and finding specific bangers to jam, besides like "when i rap"

Yeah so I love this

freeway x girl talk = jedi mind tricks :(

I'm just going to go on pretending I never found out Freeway did an EP with Girl Talk.

"Tolerated" is very solid imo
