Audio Mixer: Big Hollis. When Freeway dropped PHILADELPHIA FREEWAY in 2003, it was the ex-drug dealer and renowned freestyler's coming out party on Roc-a-Fella Records. For the sequel, six years later, Freeway's back to his indie roots (on Real Talk): the beats are lighter and sparer, but since Freeway has already long established himself as one of the rap game's most crafty linguists, it matters little. "Gotz 2 Be Da Bomb," one of the most unusual mother-thanking raps in history, he dubs himself the "Saddam Hussein of rap." It's a tossed-off rhyme that sums up the Philly MC: fearless, unpretentious, and clever. Released a couple months after he announced the forthcoming Stimulus Package, recorded with Jake One for Rhymesayers, Freeway came out with this relatively low-key, no-frills set. Related to 2003's Philadelphia Freeway only in a nominal sense (certainly not in stature), this so-titled sequel is a succinct independent album with production from many of the same names that populate other Real Talk releases (Beat Killaz, Cozmo, Vince V.). Tending to be as gruff and excited as ever, Freeway gets the rallying beats -- reminiscent of Roc-a-Fella-era highlights like "What We Do," "Flipside," and "It's Over" -- to match. Freeway sticks to his strengths as an MC, dishing out threats and boasts, some of which are weaved through tales of drug slinging. One of the album's few mellow cuts, "It's a Good Day" rewrites Ice Cube's like-themed 1993 classic. ~ Andy Kellman Phildalphia Freeway 2 Music Phildalphia Freeway 2 Songs Phildalphia Freeway 2 Music Review Average Rating: (2.3 out of 5 stars)   what happened to my boy freeway? I am a huge freeway fan and i must say that this cd is horrible! I dont know whats worse the beats or his flow.this is not the freeway we know and love.is this what happens when a artist leaves rocafella records? i hope not.freeway should sit in a dark room alone and just listen to his first two cds and get back into his lane,because another effort like this can and will ruin his credability!

Too Short. While being a BIG Freeway fan I awaited this CD like a baby awaiting it's mothers brest milk.. Only to find that it had already been mostly sucked dry.. While expect a full explosion of fresh milk (18+ tracks) it was reduced to a withered amount of tasty yet not fulfilling to ones hungar. So my review ends and a quiet yet steady chant.. We want more.. WE WANT MORE! Submitted by Phil~ (Calgary AB) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 0 of 1 found this helpful.
