Mixtape Monday-Alien Vs Predator 4 Freeway & Busta
I’m not sure who’s the alien and who’s the predator, but I know that Free and Busta both kill things on this tape. The 4th in the series from Dj King Flow, this one features some of the month of madness songs from Freeway next to Busta’s leaks and warm ups to Back on My BS. The two artist’s sounds blend well together, and the mix actually seems to have a lot of cohesion. I was pretty impressed overall.
Now, in fairness. I’m a big Busta fan. Since Leaders of the New School, I bought all of his albums until I stopped buying albums. And then I bought The Big Bang when I only bought albums as a token symbol of my support for an artist. And I’ve also always either got a bootleg or stole an official copy of every album Freeway’s released as well, so I’m admitting my bias. (Just for clarity, that isn’t a diss towards Freeway, I just never bought his albums because I was exercising my Muslim privilege to hear what the Ak had to say. Plus I’d always throw an extra fever in the zakat, which I figure was what he would get for it anyway, so reverso chango, we’re even.)
But there’s no moral ambiguity in the download of this free mixtape. You want your copy, just send an email to hiphoplivesmixtapes@gmail.com and I’ll send you an MP3 copy so you can floss some new hotness for your New Year’s Eve party. Just picture this playing when the ball drops.
