Don't Act Like You Don't Know

Skills has always been that MC that would come on the radar once a year as one of the hottest ones. But it was always his year end (w)rap up. This time he shows the world what he's capable of on this hot track with Freeway. Just Blaze-esque production, great flows, this is so my jam right now.
