Awl fave Freeway, out of Philadelphia, proves he can rap better than you on two new songs from his upcoming mixtape, The Beat Made Me Do It. An official album, The Stimulus Package, is due in January. (He'd better hurry up with that. Since the talk on the increasingly long unemployment line says the recession is already over, didn't you know.)

Vanilla Ice can rap better than me so that's not saying much.
After the Beanie Seagal (sp??) video a while ago, I find it interesting that the Awl seems to be championing the guys Jay-z left behind. I blame Kanye.
