Man I miss this kind of radio and these cds

[@Bottles93145]

This was sooo legendary. I heard it live on the radio and had this CD and listened to it religiously. Freeway was the star of that night he was definitely the unanimous MVP. O and Sparks got super busy on this joint and were the runner ups for MVP. Chris showed us he was supposed to be the future of rap. Beans was Beans that night and Bleek was Bleek. H Money Bags was forgettable and faded out a few months later. This was a legendary night in hip hop that will never be duplicated. When rap was rap… what a time.

[@TrentonsOwn]

Couldn’t have said it any better, solute to you true hip hop heads

[@Slowjo1221]

We really didn’t appreciate Freeway back then the way we should have. That unorthodox flow is so fire.
