As a prelude to his upcoming album, Rhymefest gets together with Scram Jones to treat you to a freebie, entitled The Manual. I was hip to Blue Collar, slept on the Man In The Mirror mixtape, but refuse to get caught snoozing on this one. El Che going over beats you know, plus features from Queen Latifah, CL Smooth, Derek X & some others you forgot about…but ‘Fest didn’t.
Back cover, tracklisting & link after the break.

Got this off Fake Shore Drive Just listened to it.
I like the jawn can’t wait for El Che
I want this to be good… but I’m skeptical.
wow forgot about this tape, today is now a good day…cant wait till it finishes downloading
this is a very good. please don’t sleep TSS fam.
UNC vs MSU cant get any love? or at least a TSS post?
Tar Heels gonna romp.
^^^ says the CHI native lol – nah i trust your judgement ghostdini…DLing as we speak (type?)
It’s good. I got an early copy, and rode to it for the better part of the weekend.
The Queen Latifah joint is quite ill.
i don’t know why people don’t fuck w/Fest. he’s quite good with his.
His collabo with Lil Jon was bonkers.
i don’t know why people don’t fuck w/Fest. he’s quite good with his.

Gotty, i been wonderin’ about that ever since Blue Collar dropped…
maybe it’s the Kanye affiliation–you don’t like kanye so you don’t like cats he runs with… maybe it’s bein from Chi and Chi not holdin’ down their own the way we should.
Maybe it’s that he seems older than most cats on majors, and conventional wisdom is if you ain’t blown by a certain age, you prolly don’t deserve to.
not sure, but I got this joint. it’s not as good as his Man In The Mirror mt which was near classic, but it’s a rock soild tape that’s got me hungry for the album…
i’m curious as to why Rhymefest isn’t on G.O.O.D music or Rocafella or IDJ even, tho… seems like it would’ve been an obvious fit.
Rhymefest is one of the best MC’s out right now.. Straight up..
looking forward to it – Fest don’t disappoint
