Mixtape Review: C.FRERE - Spliffsonian


 Rating : 7/10

C. Frere (CFMG - Corey Frere Musik Group) is a Jacksonville, FL based emcee with a gift for storytelling and rugged emceemanship. For C.Frere, hip-hop is a contact sport and you either go hard or go home. Alongside partner in rhyme, Capo, as one half of the rap duo 80 Proof, C.Frere was able to establish an underground following with their debut release Northeast Classick (2006) opening up for artists like UTP (Juvenile, Wacko, and Skip), Mobb Deep, Petey Pablo, and the Thug Misses Khia.

C.Frere is now armed with his first solo project, the highly anticipated Southern Smoke mixtape, called Spliffsonian. Backed by the World Famous DJ Smallz, Spliffsonian has plans to set the tone for the Jacksonville music scene with his blunted vocals and strangling word play. Influenced by West Coast legends DJ Quik and Spice 1, C. Frere was drawn to the vivid storytelling abilities and the portraits painted from the rugged truth.

Spliffsonian is an eclectic gumbo of slow riding, introspective music, woofer busting trap beats, and even more traditional hip-hop beats
