Freeway Preps 'Free At Last' For Nov. 20th

Listen: Freeway - "It's Over"

NEW ALBUM FREE AT LAST EXECUTIVE PRODUCED BY JAY-Z & 50 CENT
Guests include Jay, 50, Scarface, Rick Ross, Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss & more

NEW YORK, NY - October 24, 2007 - North Philly’s native son Freeway has seen a lot since the 2003 release of his certified Gold Roc-A-Fella debut Philadelphia Freeway. Greeted with equally heavy doses of critical acclaim and hood love, Free found himself touring the world and sharing the spoils with the hottest crew in hip-hop, a meteoric rise that would prove to be not without struggle, sacrifice and consequence. Indeed, a lot has changed since then, and through it all, Freeway has remained, quite literally, on his grind.
That grind, as much a part of Freeway’s legendarily gruff delivery as his gritty lyricism, pours through every groove on Free’s long-awaited sophomore set Free At Last. Set for a November 20th release on Roc-A-Fella Records, Free at Last chronicles Freeway’s struggles to navigate an increasingly hostile and competitive musical environment, while remaining true to the streets, his friends and family, and most importantly himself.

“The past four years, a lot’s been goin’ on with me, personally,” explains Free. “I’m a Muslim, and I had the opportunity to go to Mecca, and that really brightened my horizons; the break-up at the Roc, that had me stagnant for a while to be honest; meanwhile, the music is changing, that’s how music is, constantly changing. As far as for me, I didn’t change anything in terms of my style, I do what I do. I’m a reality rapper, always have been, so I got a lot to say about what’s goin’ on. I let it all out on record. That’s why my fans love me.”

Co-executive produced by hip-hop’s two greatest giants - long-time friend and mentor JAY-Z and newfound ally 50 Cent - and featuring a virtual who’s who of raps brightest stars including guest spots from Scarface, Rick Ross, Busta Rhymes, Jadakiss, 2 Short, Paul Wall and production from JR Rotem, Cool & Dre, Don Cannon, Bink, Dame Grease & more, Free At Last is a tour-de force, deftly recapturing that signature Roc-A-Fella sound while infusing it with a hunger and electricity that’s been missing since, well, Freeway’s last album.
“The industry’s goin’ through changes, and it’s about a lot of bullshit right now,” says Freeway of the new project. “Since I first came out, I’ve been watching very closely. Radio, video don’t support anymore. So I’ve been floodin’ the internet w freestyles, hittin’ the streets. The blogs and the networking sites are the new streets, obviously. That’s where the fans are. They want to hear your music, and you gotta give it to them. They’ll let you know real quick what they think!”

To that end, Free At Last is Freeway’s emancipation proclamation. Instead of pursuing a traditional single strategy, Free is following the heat generated from this summer’s street banger, “Rocafella Billionaires” featuring JAY-Z - and the new heat rock burning up the blogs “Step Back” featuring Lil’ Wayne - by releasing three new tracks simultaneously: “It’s Over,” “Still Got Love,” and “Lights Get Low” featuring Rick Ross. The tracks have been serviced to top DJ’s around the country as exclusives, and are available to stream at rocafella.com.

More Breaking News On T.I.'s Arrest

Some of T.I.'s Arsenal including the machine guns and
silencers he attempted to purchase.

Here's some more info on T.I.'s arrest. We know we posted some of this info in the last report but there's more to it. Props to Miss Info.

“On four different occasions, the affidavit said, he gave his bodyguard cash to buy firarms.The bodyguard said that in September he delivered a 9-mm pistol to Harris, who invited the bodyguard into his bedroom, the affidavit said. Inside, there was a walk-in closet with a safe tall enough for a person to enter with a fingerprint-reading scanner as a lock, the affidavit said. The safe contained multiple short rifles, including an assault rifle inside a black bag, according to the affidavit. On Saturday, wearing a hidden wire and cooperating with federal agents, the bodyguard met Harris at a pre-arranged meeting place in Midtown and handed over the three machine guns and two silencers, the affidavit said. When Harris was told about one of the silencers, he said, “no flash, no bang,” and later asked for the “change leftover” from the $12,000 he had given the bodyguard for the weapons, the affidavit said.”

“At a press conference an hour after Monday’s court hearing, federal agents displayed nine weapons they said were found in Harris’s car and in the closet of his home. Among the weapons on display across a long conference table at the ATF office were an AK-47, a 9-mm handgun. Moments later they introduced three machine guns and the two silencers.

“Machine guns and silencers pose serious dangers to our community,” U.S. Attorney David Nahmias said. “The last place the machine guns and silencers should be are in the hands of a convicted felon….”

“Authorities at the press conference would not discuss any deal they struck with Harris’s bodyguard, who has been arrested and is facing charges, Nahmias said.”

11 Day Fed Investigation Leads To T.I. Arrest In ATL

11 Day Fed Investigation Leads To T.I. Arrest In ATL

11-day investigation that resulted in the arrest of Atlanta rapper Clifford "T.I." Harris:

—Oct. 2: Harris' bodyguard asks a licensed gun dealer about buying a machine gun without registering it, as required by law. The dealer reports the incident to ATF agents, who give the dealer the cell phone number of an undercover ATF agent, posing as a machine gun dealer, to pass along to the bodyguard. The bodyguard calls the number within hours.

—Oct. 10: Harris arranges for the bodyguard to pick up $12,000 in cash from his bank on Northside Parkway to buy the weapons. Later, the bodyguard meets with the undercover agent at a K-Mart store, 5997 Buford Highway, Doraville. The bodyguard gives the agent $2,200 and a .223-caliber pistol in exchange for three 9mm machine guns and two 9mm silencers. The bodyguard is then arrested. He tells agents he was buying the guns for Harris. He also says he has purchased about 25 firearms over the past 18 months for Harris and others. ATF agents confirm the purchases.

—Oct. 11: After agreeing to cooperate with the ATF, the bodyguard makes a monitored phone call to Harris. He tells Harris that he has "everything for you."

—Oct. 12: Harris calls his bodyguard and arranges for him to deliver the firearms the next day.

—Oct. 13, between 12:30 and 1 p.m.: Harris calls the bodyguard and asks him to bring the items to a recording studio. At the direction of ATF agents, the bodyguard suggests that they instead meet at a shopping center parking lot at the corner of Piedmont and North avenues in Atlanta.

—2:22 p.m.: Harris arrives at the parking lot. The bodyguard gets into Harris' vehicle and shows him the machine guns and silencers. When the bodyguard explains the function of one silencer, Harris says, "No flash, no bang." Harris also asks about ammunition, the capacity of the magazine and about "change left over" from the $12,000. Authorities then move in and arrest Harris without incident. A search of his vehicle uncovers three firearms, including one tucked between the driver's seat and the center console.

—2:40 p.m.: ATF agents begin searching Harris's home at 429 Creekview Lane, College Park. They find three rifles, two pistols and a revolver in a walk-in closet in his bedroom. Five of the firearms are loaded.

—Monday: Harris, held in federal custody over the weekend, is scheduled to make his first appearance in federal court on two felony charges: possession of unregistered machine guns and possession of firearms by a convicted felon.
