So I’m sitting in the office putting together this flipbook of last week’s Jingle Ball concert at Madison Square Garden, when my opens the door and says, “Yo, Cory Gunz is in my office”. I had a quick flashback to this….that and, oh this one too. Since dude is KNOWN for going off the cuff when it comes to freestyling, It would’ve been blasphemous to pass up on an a freestyle request.

I grabbed the camera, hit the office and without hesitation, dude got busy for about a minute and a half. Be prepared to see a lot more of Cory in ‘09; dude is one of hip hop’s brightest rookies.
