  • Let it be known- I love this song. I love lupe. But this is not him at all. This is Sarah Greene and my boy gemstones. The full track has rhyme verses from gemstone and the chous with Sarah. They are all from my home of Chicago and I have some of their underground albums. Same title, but an awesome rap. Check it out.

  • This is song is absolutely beautiful. This should have been a full track to begin with.

  • I think this is by far one of the best blends of quality hip-hop n alternative music. KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DOING LUPE. I am currently trying to spread the word bout a band named 'Maxcoldd' with certain similar qualities in their songs and instrumentals. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE visit my channel to lend them your ears. COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE IF IT SUITS YOU, and as always constructive criticism is always welcomed. LUPE keep doing what u doing.

  • this is just sex in my ears

  • Free Chilly> Free Earl

  • Too many loops...boring....

  • i dont understand there is no rapping at all in this song

  • @xriscross1 Lol, its a message bro.

  • Lupe should have made a tune out of this, It's beautiful

  • love this intro wish they made a full song to this but still love it almost cry when i listen to the words

  • listen to the whole playlist.

    lupe=win

  • loop -_-

  • While recording The Cool, Fiasco's father died of type II diabetes and his business partner, Charles "Chilly" Patton, was convicted of attempting to supply heroin and was sentenced to 44 years in prison.

    -Free in 2051 that sucks

  • This is, and when i say this, i mean it, this is the only song that has made me cry, i love Lupe's music and him (No homo) but still, this is music people can relate to

    Nearly everyone's lost someone important in their lives, the lines "If we can build a ladder that tall (To reach heaven) to come up and see you, we would, coz' we down here, and we miss you"

    Lupe, you literatly have, and i mean it, you literatly have made realness something people can reach, even though we live in this world.

  • first time when tears got out of my eye for a song..

  • I miss my boy, his dad took him, we share civil custody...I miss my boy...I wish I could find him...

  • how can i download this version?

  • HiTZ hOmE bRUh ShoUt OuT 2 My ChI~tOwN nIggAz ...TX

  • GEM IS TOP 3 FROM THE CHI HANDS DOWN SINGING AND RAPPEN

  • Definitely a 'Free Chilly' song

  • This song touches your soul.

    I swear oh my gosh...

  • The cool album is downright the best work of lupe but this right here is so amazingly real, makes you think of a lotta shit,makes me shed a few

  • Can you get the instrumental for me ?

  • Such simple yet powerful lyrics, a very inspiring concept. It reminds me to of my grandfather who has passed away a few years ago, it reminds me of mentally handicapped people who could very well be good people but you will never know and it's sad becuase of it, it reminds me of those living in poverty those people that have potential to do great things in the world. Furthermore, it reminds me to use my life to its fullest potential possible.

  • Check out Kwame Katana's We miss you version of this song it goes hard!!!!

  • ALLAH AKBAR.

  • oh 1000 thanks for the long version. I'm feeling this.

    Greetz from Hamburg City, Germany!

  • its a good song...why didn't lupe put the full thing on his album?

  • i like the way you extended the song but why leave out the girls voice?? i think it would be better

  • i think some one mixed it like that because the girls part was incomplete you can hear a spot in the music the doesn't completely mesh plus a slight tick where it repeats each time

  • HE SHOULD SING LIKE THIS MORE OFTEN!

  • listen to gemini's version..

  • it's a trip if you blaze and you keep hearing this shit over and over. lupe's the best.

  • AWESOME TRACK

  • this song is so fuckin deep and makes me emotional

  • dis so deep i almost cry when i hear dis

  • I hear you man this shit give's me the shiver's when I"m drunk lol

    If we could break down those walls to set you free,

    we would, cuz we out here,

It also reminds me of my nanna who died in 2005. i will forever love her. and i know she's always with me, encouraging me to be the greatest because she was such an amazing person herself. Peace. Love. Vision. Empowerment. Free Chilly

  • he got 44 years for possesion of heroin his real name is charles patton go to illinois department of corrections inmate locator

  • fucking hell. i just want the minute one. not the freestyle. i just cant fucking find it aywhere. pissing me off.

    best song. i love it.

  • i love this song go lupe

  • this just loops it, meh, I was expecting something more ... remixed.

  • Well, you should check out Gemstones version.

  • man this is the best thing on Earth because building a ladder to see a loved one would be the greatest. :)

  • he was on parole until the jury had a vertic,and he was found guilty for drug trafficking,an got 44 years in prison,its a chance he can get anthor case an get out

  • the welcome back was old,he got sent back to jail for 40years

  • what did he get sent back for?

  • but chilly was freed wasnt he thats why lupe made that song welcome home chilly??? or welcome back yeah thats it go search nd listen=D

  • LUPE NEEDS TO MAKE THIS AN ACTUALLY SONG! this is amazing... i love this song

  • lol nice editing.....

    song way to long

  • whats this song about

  • his father died.

    " if we could build a ladder that tall..."

    his friend got 44 years for 6 kilos of heroin or something.

    "if we could break down these walls..."

  • his business partner. His nickname was "Chill" or "Chilly"

    Thus Free Chilly.

  • On the album this song is great but your version my friend, IS WAY TOO REPETITIVE. You should have shortened it to 3 minutes

  • Yeah, I did a mistake with the editing...

  • the guy just played the song over and over again duh

  • for you and all of your lil haters out there, lupe didnt make this for all the listeners or fans. He doesn't care about what anyone else thinks so your better off leavin your opinion to yourself cause he made this strictly for Charles Chilly Patton his dearest friend who was sentenced 44 years in jail for possesion of about 4 lbs. of cocaine and attempt to sell it.... bottom line lupe doesnt care what anyone thinks about this song besides Chilly

  • he lost his father during making the album too :( but its a good album,

  • ughhh...it got too repetitive, had to stop listening...I love this song.

  • damn i love this beat!!! so mello but sick at the same time!!!!

  • TheRhythmCollection.

  • Who is Chilly?!!!!

  • On of his friends who lupe lmew for a long a while.

    And he got 40 years in jail for cocaine charges or something else.

  • It was drugs.

  • he got 40 yrs for drugs?

  • he got 44 years cuz he was in possession of 6 kilos of heroin($1million street value)....

    FNF up! Free chilly! Lupe #1

  • damn

  • thats why he made this song? O_O i dont kno but i kno its sick XD

  • he is a huge part in lupe and the whole FnF blowing up

  • Lupe should actually make a song to this, this is a really good Sample!!

    Lupe's new album The Cool i find is his BEST!

  • I hate the fact that he made just 1 minute of this song!!!!! x___x

  • exaaactly it had so much potential and then stops at 1 minute!

  • Gemstone made a remix of it where he raps:

    watch?v=_hYNjitHBcw

  • there is a version of this where gemstones is spittin, is on 1/15 vol. 6

  • This Songs Real

  • it's a loop of the song. you can tell. and it only says one line.

  • Correct!

  • anyone got a link for this version to download 1 min is not enough!

  • This song talks about freeing his music partner who got sentenced to 44 years in prison on posession of heroin. His name was charles patton and his nickname was chilly. so this song is talking about freeing his friend

  • 44 years for posession of heroin???

    Isnt that a little to long?

  • i know thats what it said though

  • Is he a dealer or a user?

  • dont think lupe is chilly was i think

  • Thank you so much for lengthing this sound. It's a classic!!!!

  • I would like to hear more Sarah Green in this mix..but you did a great job rhythm!

  • Sweet! How come this version isn't on my album of The Cool? I just have the short version!

  • Rujabes...platinum days are over unless you appeal to teeny boppers.

    It's sad but true. Honestly, now and days, if you are making music for money...it's just not going to work. That's the wrong reason to be making music in the first place, imo. I have a feeling Lupe is one of those who writes music because it's stuff he needs to get off of his chest. Not to make money. If it was about money, he would be talking about it.

  • That's a fair point, except...

    Tha Carter 2 & 3, Graduation, and American Gangster are all platinum (most are double). It happens a lot.

    But if you make a song that sells well on the ringtone market, it really doesn't matter how good it is. That's why so many gangsta rappers today get the money to rent the mansions and jets you see in their music videos.

    Lupe is a fantastic rapper. I'm just sad to see him go, and I hope his departure couldn't be as easily solved as just buying his album.

  • this is such a nice song...

  • wheres sarah green at?!?!?!??

  • At the end of the song

  • Listen at the end of the song!

  • I love Lupe, and this song as well. I'm just tired of his entire album being placed on Youtube so FREQUENTLY. This is seriously like the 50th time this has happened, and I'm not sure if there's an organized effort for redundancy, or if it's just a genuine act of ignorant goodwill on your part. If it's the former, please pass on the message to the group to stop reposting the entire album. If it's the latter, you're not the first to post the entire album. No wonder we only got one more album left.

  • I posted the album because i want more people to hear it!

    And yess i know it has been posted before!

  • I figured as much and I think that's great that you want to spread the word. It just seems more productive, especially several months after the album's release, to just tell people about him, than to post the whole album online. My point being; it's not difficult at all to simply rip audio from Youtube. And if, or rather when, people do that, record sales won't be stimulated, and Lupe will have less reason to make more music in general. After 9 months, The Cool is just now gold, which is sad.

  • are you stupid?.. lupe doesnt care about money

    hes rapping about the truth. he hates hip-hop for the simply reason that main stream rappers and rappers rapping on that ol' bullshit about stuntin and such get all the props and what not not over the money...

  • Stupid?

    You just said Lupe "hates hip-hop". That's stupid.

    He doesn't hate hip-hop, he just criticizes gangsta rap, which is great. Frankly, a lot of people do that too. Kanye even did that in "Everything I Am", and a few months later, "Put On" came out.

    What makes Lupe unique is his creativity.

    In BET terms, he's like Lil Wayne minus the weed and with an education.

    Lupe DOES care about money. It's his JOB. Who wouldn't care about money? The brother isn't a monk. He gotta eat too.

  • Well, he even said in one of his songs he use to hate hip-hop, because of the disrespecting of women. Also, when he heard NWA when he was younger, he thought it was pretty harsh. Well, he "used" to hate hip-hop.

  • lupe is not rap. He's hip hop. if ur thinking hip-hop kanye west or lupe. if ur thinking rap 50 cent or lil wayne you stupid dumbass

  • Yo it's crazy that you said that you said that cause that's the point I be trying to stress to to ppl rap is just straight dumb music with no heart and soul but Hip hop has a point

  • If you mean rap then yes, he hate the coorperate rap..but hip-hop is a art and culture not just music

  • '''I used to hate hip-hop... yup, because the women degraded

    But Too $hort made me laugh, like a hypocrite I played it

    A hypocrite I stated, though I only recited half

    Omittin the word "bitch," cursin I wouldn't say it

    Me and dog couldn't relate, til a bitch I dated....''

  • hurts me soull classic...
