    Part 1: • Freeway: Meek Got a Cl...
    --------
    In this clip, Freeway got emotional as he reflected on the life and passing of his friend, Bay Area rapper The Jacka who was fatally shot in 2015. Freeway talked about how they initially linked up and immediately clicking through not only music but the Islamic faith. He also recalled Jacka "mastering" the ability to record music without writing his lyrics in the same fashion as Jay-Z which Freeway said unlocked another level for Jacka.

    Jack artist was 1 of my favorite rappers out of the bay most def. I thought him and AP9 were the dopest out the mob. I remember the day Jack died. I was celebrating my wife's 25th birthday at DaveNBusters, and I found out when I got home. I cried and was devastated for months. Im still hurt when I think about it now. Just a real tragedy for his son and his community. 💔

      @Ciprian Dobrea I see your father Satan has sent you too just like he sent your other sibling and had to remind them, so I'll give you the same speech. You can talk trash for him since he's a punk anyway.
      Tell him next time I'll backhand him with one hand while rebuking him with scripture from the bible with the other hand. Then, after that, you can see how I spanked your father lucifer and only then maybe you can see how a decent human being handles garbage and gets rid of scumbags like you all, and maybe you can get saved too. Before your time is up and you end up in the underworld like him and the rest of your bloodline. Learn to be a decent human and not a weenie street walker. Because god definitely told us there are 2 kinds of people, his people, or the people of Satan, so when Jesus told those people you are of you father satan he was speaking of people from that lineage. So that's how I know where you come from. It's in your talk and DNA. Come back for more, and I'll serve you more than you asked for you, silly Sally. 🥲🙏🏿

    They took The Jacka at the worst time. His last project that he released while alive, _What Happened to the World: Street Album_ is bonkers. The production and delivery on that was dope, and Jacka was at a whole new level. He would have blown up bigger if he was around.
    People speculate that The Jacka being a peacemaker who was respected by everyone in Northern California is why he was killed. He was shot in public in front a crowd but there was never any security footage of it released. There's speculation that the Feds or the State had something to do with his death. His latest project had a political and social message in it, and TPTB find that threatening to the status quo.

    I hope Freeway can put together a _Highway Robbery 2._ I wouldn't mind if it had a few recycled verses from their other lesser-known mixtapes/albums from each of their catalog's. As long as the finished songs make sense thematically or melodically.

    Oakland/Hayward/Richmond/Vallejo is where ive lived- im 43 now. When i heard the First Cbo featuring the MOB FIGAZ the first track on one of Cbo's earlier album's...then heard their first group album... especially the track "Hustlin in the rain" it was like the bay had the Bay version of 2Pacs Outlaws.
    They were dope as fuck but The Jacka and Huslah stood out, along with Fed X but he did'nt really do the music like that.
    Then The Jacka solo album came out, i bought at a mom n pops record shop outta the mission in the city.
    Since then he's been on every rap playlist ive ever had,
    always looking for a new project damn near weekly.
    We slapped The J.A. because he knew what hurt us and what makes us.
    He not only talked about all aspects of life but damn near showed us what do do to make it out.
    literally painting a map of the journey. Thats why he stayed in the slums....when he couldve been in a mansion.
    He was the care taker damn near a big brother to us.
    I shed a tear for The Jacka i dont shed tears for anyone besides close family.
    Hurt a 100 times worst then MAC DREs death.
    Every once in a great while i look for new Jacka hoping maybe I'll get lucky.
    LONG LIVE THE JACKA

    Miss the Jacka he used to cut hair in his moms garage in Pittsburg Ca, before getting with the Mob Figaz. That boy Ap9 used to cut hair in Frisco at the barber college, can’t forget the time he put my name and the Bay Bridge in the back of my head. Rip The Jacka.

    I was locked up at Hillcrest juvenile hall in San Mateo when everyone is barely waking up from the staff members turning on the radio when I specifically hear the news on the radio I couldn’t believe it I asked around if anyone else heard it but not everyone else was fully awake when they had just turned the radio on so when we went to school one of the teachers informed the class that he had passed the night before I believe rest in peace I’ll never forget since it was my first time being locked up and I had a month in when hearing the news one love everyone

    Jacka was the underground Pac. Easily one of the most underrated rappers.
