America’s Most Wanted Mixtape: Freebandz Casino’s Disrespectful
As of May 7th editors, journalists and music fans all across America are still impatiently waiting for the release of Freebandz’ CEO and Star, Casino’s highly anticipated mixtape, Disrespectful. Every week we seem to get closer to finally having the mixtape in our hands and fulfilling our higher ups request of capturing the sounds that Casino has curated in the past year. Like Frank Matthews, Casino seems to have been eluding us with Disrespectful. It seems like every other day we see him in new interviews and shining on the gram but no album. Is Casino playing mind games with the public. Is this just a game of Catch Me If You Can? Is he playing us like Frank Abernathy played that detective all those years while he successfully pulled off heist after heist? So we had to ask when are we getting Casino’s highly publicized mix-tape?
After repeatedly emailing and contacting his publicist Abesi of Abesi PR who has promised us an interview with the Freebandz CEO, we finally got a simple email today. This is what it read, Disrespectful is Coming Soon. Your new fave is worth the wait but you already know that. Thank you greatly for supporting Casino. Nothing is bigger than the bird, signed with love -A. We deciphered the short email that came across much warmer than we thought and discussed clues that we may have had in front of us about what is really going on with this Freebandz project. An hour later Casino’s publicist followed up with a snippet of a few tracks. After hearing these tracks it was over for us. We knew right then and there that all great things take time. We know now that Casino and Freebandz are preparing us for something more than we could even have envisioned and something hip hop deserves, a truly great story teller, with truth, depth and creative producers who can cater to our short-attention span and crave for trap, hip hop and even EDM? Casino has it all. And we wish we could share the snippets sent by his publicist but we are still trying to process how we didn’t know how incredible of an artists Casino was all this time. So from Move that Dope to Karate Chop to the new songs on Disrespectful we are here to let you know that Casino is definitely worth the wait. – Follow him on instagram @casino_fbg
