FREESTYLE FELLOWSHIP | PROJECT BLOWED 15 YR ANNY

I grew up on RUN DMC & N.W.A. in L.A. & when I was rolling with The Tunnelrats, my man Dax put me onto Freestyle Fellowship. To Whom It May Concern & Intercity Griots would become the only things I would play & study. These 4 men gave birth to a whole new sound & style that to this day many try to imitate but none can compare. It’s crazy to me that Project Blowed just celebrated 15 years of existence as a separate entity from The Good Life, which was home to Freestyle Fellowship as well as a hip hop Apollo if you will. I swear… I can sit here & continue writing a novel about this whole movement. Anyways, much respecognition to my fam Shames Worthy & Dert for the link.

We went further in on this one & you can judge for yourself on the Track list & DL which is after the jump…
