Hahaha, Tunj is hilarious. I remember GregTheDude shot me this video along with the earlier clip of Tunj freestyling with Cook about the New Classics mixtape the night he did ’em. While the first free was dope, I was sad this one didn’t get released too…until now.
If you haven’t downloaded the mixtape, stop sleeping!
The Vimby x UpOnThingz mixtape, The New Classics, dropped last week as a streamable project on iMeem, but it’s 2009…and that just doesn’t quite cut it these days. Here’s the full project for download, featuring incredible production from the homey Cook Classics and appearances by some of the best rising talent in the game: Shawn Jackson, Outasight, Avriel Epps, Emilio Rojas, Buff1, TiRon, Inverse, Pacific Division, 6th Sense, U-N-I, Convinced, Fashawn, and many, many more. If you need more of a reason to cop immediately, did you forget Tunji’s freestyle?
Download here.
GregTheDude gave me a sneak peak of this last night…pause…but now it’s officially ready for the world to see. Greg + Tunji + Cook = Claremont Colleges talent at its finest, but y’all don’t know about that.
What you do know, however, is that it’s becoming quite evident that Tunj is a beast. Here he runs down the artists appearing on the upcoming VIMBY mixtape in freestyle form. If you’re up on your 5-C’s trivia, this will remind you of his classic Pomona-Pitzer bball intro. Ah, the good ol’ days.
If you want to see more of Tunji freestyling, check his appearance on Sound Session a few weeks back. Plus, there may be some more studio footage coming from Greg in a bit…
