It seems that Freeway has a deal to release a record with RBC Records and wants to get out of it in the last moments, which isn't enough to prevent the label from releasing the album in late 2009. A reinforced dozen tracks, just over three quarters of an hour of listening. Production credits are unknown: it looks like 9th Wonder did the beat for "Rap Money" and it's one of his worst productions ever, while the few guests are Tom Hardy and State Property rappers Beanie Sigel and Young Chris. An out of shape Freeway finds himself into an economic, simplistic, bouncy and annoying soundscape, because he performs better when his thug and brag themes meet music with soulful vibes, in order to facilitate and favor the typical power of its execution, thing that here never happen due to generic rhythms all quite unfit with the style shown by the Philly MC throughout his decade-long career. To note the poor beat of "Make a Move", which doesn't support his delivery, here less aggressive than usual, and "Transporter", which presents a tense, very dark, Jamesbondian track. In conclusion, there is no memorable track in this product that resembles a mixtape and goes straight into oblivion. 5/10.
