Download – Sway – “Run This Town” Freestyle [mp3]

Listen close to Sway’s “Run This Town” freestyle and you might hear a revelation. It appears that the “Empire State of Mind” was originally submitted to Sway, but he never actually recorded to it. “I didn’t take that beat seriously, but Jay turned it into a monster.”

If you’ve never heard of Shux, check out “Little Derek” from Sway’s This is My Demo LP below.

    p.s. why isn’t Baby Blue’s verse in the “Little Derek” video? Maybe I just like the accent, but I think that she has some potential.
