"She Will" FreestyleThrowback clip! Let's take a trip back to 2011 and listen to young Aaron, fresh into fatherhood, rap a verse written in 10 minutes. I spent much of that year writing a mixtape in which I would write a verse in ten minutes and then rap over southern beats instead of the traditional east-coast, "boom-bap" sound that I loved.
This freestyle was a lyrical exercise, pushing my mind to sculpt a complete verse in ten minutes or 600 seconds. I am pretty amazed at this verse. Every line drips with confidence, cockiness, and lyrical prowess that most people don't know that I have. My pen game was nice. |

BET FreestyleThis verse was the introduction of Mufali.mc. I recorded this as a BET Awards freestyle competition submission. I struggled coming up with a name because, let's face it, my government name doesn't exactly epitomize hip-hop culture. I remember coming up with the name "Mufali" and imagining it being the name of an ancient African tribe whose leaders were highly artistic, compassionate, and forward-thinking.
Btw, my submission didn't gain enough votes to be on the BET awards. Oh well...there's always next year. |

"Nightmares From the Bottom" Freestyle2011 Freestyle. This freestyle verse was another lyrical exercise that proved to be quite challenging. This beat was so slow, but it was a perfect muse. Yes, this was a freestyle. I didn't have a paper, pen, or anything like that. Just a bunch of words in my mind, a bit of creativity, and a Lil Wayne beat. I like this one even though I fell offbeat more than a couple of times. The "mistakes" are all part of the lyrical exercise, helping artists find comfort over any beat.
Btw, appreciate the 2011 visual graphics:) |
