[wwil74]

[bajanbaw]

Album cover is that work!

[san757diego]

jake one is no doubt one of the best producers in the game right now... he some how manages to hae the dilla type flow <3

[kaybronson100]

um, no. completely different styles.

[BlahZayy1190]

not producer in the game has or even tries to have "dilla's flow"

[GeneralAlcazar1]

Kanye did on commons finding forever.

[cityboylips]

Yee. Dats stimulus package sound likes its gone be one u can play from beginin ta End dats wat real niggas need.

[cityboylips]

Yee. dat stimulus package sound like its gone be one u can play from beginin ta End that's wat the fuck real niggas need.

[xperienceths]

jake one beats never dissapoint

[Baxterstockman0332]

underrated. he is the best underground prod. wit black milk

[quartoGBbrooklyn]

which is better what we do or this? haha too hard jake one is ill on the beats

[infinitearchetype]

what we do is classic. just blaze is a monster

[mindcellest]

SICCCC ASSSS

[doomofchikin]

yo him being on rhymesayers just means that he will have freedom to do what the fuck he wants with his music. that said, cant wait for this shit to drop

[javeroms]

SIIIIIIC!

[djgca1]

Sick beat. Wish that he wouldn't repeat the same lewd words over and over again.

[drivepro]

This guys good, but come on why cant rappers say please once in a while....always tellin me what to do

[ethiotoronto]

decent flow n message. i just dont like the way he ended the track. like he went over his budget.

[gibnumba4]

man rhymesayers is as real as it gets so dont hate

[Sorwraith]

Freeway isn't on rhymesayers, I imagine the promotion is because of jake ones involvement , so don't try and trash the whole label, that's just ignorant

[jacko2100]

freeway is on rhymsayers

[ginnfactor]

sure is! just checked the RSE site

[TheRapResurrection]

Fuck when did he go there?? Fuck his style doesnt really fit in with them do you agree?? I still dig his shit though.

[infinitearchetype]

@jacko2100 no, hes not. hes on cash money. THIS release is through rhymesayers. but freeway is NOT on the label.

[jacko2100]

idk what the deal is but he has a profile on the web sight.

[infinitearchetype]

they do that all the time with distro. Check the def jux site. Dizzee rascal is on there. he is NOT signed to def jux though. they distro his music in the US.

again, freeway is NOT on rhymesayers.

[infinitearchetype]

just to clarify, freeway is on cash money. he has his own sub-label called "free money". if you cop the most recent freeway mixtape called "the beat made me do it" (prod by jake one) the cover says "free money records presents". freeway is on the RSE site because they are distributing the jakeone and freeway album. he isnt on RSE. hope that clears it all up.

[detroitmurderdog]

@infinitearchetype I don't think he's on Cash Money.

[infinitearchetype]

@detroitmurderdog

he signed with cash money in june 2009 bro.

[detroitmurderdog]

we're going to have to agree to disagree on this one

[infinitearchetype]

Its not really a matter to disagree on. either its true or its not. its not up to opinion. look it up. :)

[infinitearchetype]

though if you find evidence to the contrary let me know of course. :)

[montecarlomayne]

that fuckin sucks.

[SpikeyJamez]

Yea I agree with ya, it makes a mystery wether Freeway chose Independent or mainstream.

And am sorry but it sound pretty depressing that he chose Young money records thats pretty fucked up because thats the record where "The house of niggas (Ignorant people)" lives.

[infinitearchetype]

yeah i agree. young moneys whack....you cop this LP though? man the fuckin packaging is SICK ahah.

[imtheshit111]

yes he is on rhymesayers

[infinitearchetype]

no, hes not

[Connorkrice]

freeway raps just as good as anyone in rhymesayers and his flow goes soooooo well with jake one beats. but ya dont hate on freeway he speaks the truth and just raps about what he knows

[psychosis147]

what waste of a good beat.

[Kingjames313]

Fuck you bitch, you don't know good rap when you hear it, his flow, wordplay and lyrics sit perfectly on this beat.

[igotem16]

not everything has to super introspective & obscure...free did a good job on this

[DirectedByTheNote]

Man I don even chime in usually but yall is soundn real soft out there.. It's FREEWAY!!! Real talk...I guess u need that good Rosetta Stone to unnastand Fuck outtahere. Hold me down Uno dis shit bang!

[Unosorlie]

Where are you so I can hold you down?

[fightclubish]

wow...dope beat! too bad it was wasted on those lyrics

[Kingjames313]

Shut up bitch!

[PoetrysTruth]

Wow so ya'll are going this route now...I'm all for expressing yourself in the way that works for you, but this is the SAME LAME crap everyone else is saying. How many times do you need to say nigga? Really love the beat, but I'm giving a fail on the nigga and gun CRAP! Ya'll are better than this...I'm going to need ya'll to DO better. Leave the niggashyt to those who have no real talent...please and thanx

[Kingjames313]

Let it go man, it's just music. IF I were to complain about anything in rap music it wouldn't be the words used, but the overall message of the music itself, so what if the word "Nigga/Nigger" isn't your cup of tea, the problem SHOULD be about glorifying drug trafficking, misogyny, materialism and racism, not the words/expletives, find something to really cry about. This shyt is nice NIGGA!

[duggleass]

I like the style. The flow is killer no doubt. But I don't get how the "thug" thing fits in Rhymesayers. The best thing about Rhymesayers is the intelligence they bring to rap. Lyrics like this are a turn off as far as I am concerned. Keep the style, but bring me something that I can't already get from 90% of the rappers out there.

[hitufirst]

I'm a rhymesayer at heart, but Freeway just doesn't do anything for me.

Stick to lyrical genius, not thug garbage.

[youR3tard]

Rhyme "nigga" with "nigga" and "hood" with "hood"? C'mon, I know you can do better.

[powderedwaterpudding]

This is the first joint from Free that I've actually liked. Jake Uno KILLED THIS!

[bieluh]

love it or hate it.

i lov this shit

[Skat3rBat3r]

i like how he executes his rhymes.

[xgbertx]

they shoulda just kept it strickktly free & jake. none of em old roc la familia state prop catz. raekwon the only good nigguh on there. im still buying the vinyl.

[civic734]

seems pretty hood for Rhymesayers am I wrong? I like it tho

[CostcoSamples]

Waste of a good instrumental

[EsotericMotion]

I know right.

[wst]

Not my usual taste in hip hop but it's definitely much better than the shit that gets radio play.

[jacko2100]

mainstream or not i like it. Just cause you think its mainstream or not doesnt make it good. people need to open their ears and just listen. Im sick of people not liking music just cause its mainstream holy shit. personally i love rhymsayers and im hyped on this album

[NBCskater]

for real man! I dont care what "stream" it came from if its good its good!

[CostcoSamples]

I don't like mainstream music because they're puppets for the record companies who tell them what to sing about.

[TheRybread1]

This is fucking terrible what were you thinking guys?!

[max11man]

im dissapointed rhymesayers would put something this mainstream out

[EdgeWins]

What the hell is this!?!? This sucks!!

[CH0CWAVE]

Not mainstream, but lacking lyrical schemes and talent. Anyone can rap about guns and selling drugs, and rhyming nigga with nigga.

[ZingBingChing]

Super-generic.

[naturaelanthem]

k we get it, it's not mainstream, lets just sit back and enjoy the music

[amexnamedluis]

Dope track, I'm becoming a fan of Freeway more and more.

[davidjamesoxner]

THIS IS HIP HOP.

[KazakstanTube]

he needs to cut down on the swears if he wants to get reconized by a wider audincem, ausome beat!

[drummer01k]

its rap bitch, swearing is imminent, if you dont like it listen to something else...

[KazakstanTube]

I know, but another person said he is gonna blow up, but all the swears wont intrest the charts , i think he is sick

[joeyjbs]

he didnt say he didnt like it, he was saying how it wont be able to go mainstream/radio play

[drummer01k]

got it now, but in all honesty, evidence doesnt get radio plays but he's still talented and makes bank, even tho money shouldnt matter in music

[HiTEqMETHOD]

that's not what he meant.

[Legahsee1]

WOW..

[KanOfFunkyFury]

this beat is NUTS

[asthenia166]

I see what you mean nbcskater, but Freeway is also a puppet rapper. It doesn't matter how talented a rapper is, if he raps about some certain things he is only in it for profit, not for the love of hip-hop.

[Darkestjesty]

i think thats a completely ignorant way of looking at it... correct me if i'm wrong, but your saying, rap isnt about rapping, its about having an opinion the audience agrees with? isnt that the problem with mainstream rap? Everyone posing and acting one way, regardless of talent or truth behind what they're rapping about. If this is what you truly beleive i have to question the legitimacy of your "love of hip-hop."

[punchNathan]

The problem with "mainstream" is the long lost idea of bleeding over a track.

[Darkestjesty]

What do you mean?

[punchNathan]

The supposed "mainstream" is just a lack of soul in the music. A belief in hip hop

[drip2012]

nice nice listen to some eyedea and abilities

[lando570]

I have to agree with axiom. Jake one is amazing, but why use such nice beats and talent on someone on the opposite end of the talent spectrum

[NBCskater]

oh and 206 all day!

[NBCskater]

Jake one is killin the beats. I am still bumpin White Van music almost daily.

Freeway is one of the few emcees that seem to be getting better with time.

[laughingfool624]

freeway is gonna take over 2010.

[Scorpio190]

impressive

[axioms22]

But the worst rapper I've ever heard man, is the whack ass mother fucking BIRDMAN

hahaha

I'm almost sad to see such great beats and catching DJing being used with these fucking ass clowns.

[julianfairbanks]

i know you are not talking about free.

[Whiteboy831]

lovin that beat

[julianfairbanks]

HOLY GOD. THIS IS ILLLLLL.

[CherubicFunk]

Fantastic!

[accident7]

nice
