    this is actually dope!

  2. gammaboi says:

    This garbage is so unfocused.
    Been the case with Clef lately.
    He wants to be Hendrix, Marley and a rapper all at once but the ideas are not fluid.

  3. OhWORD says:

    sound like this nigga recording it a basement, with a mic on a webcam

  4. man how many MC’s wanna get on this beat. call it the “Open Letter Riddim” and might as well make a Open Letter Riddim Medley video with all of them on it. Fistibal on his jimi, marley clef shit…

  6. Kaybee says:

    Dope. @ gammaboi how is this garbage?

  7. DK says:

    Not gonna lie. When the tragedy in Boston happened yesterday, one of the things I thought was: “so how long before Wyclef tries to bank off of this by making a song about it?” Not that this freestyle is it, but I’ve come to expect that kind of thing from him lately.

  8. CabriniGreeny says:

    Yes, but lets not forget that there were Native Americans here in Chicago long before Jean Baptiste Point du Sable and the Europeans.

  9. Samuel Shey says:

    Anyone thats say this is not better than the JayZ, Pitbull, etc etc is just a Hater.

  10. dodo says:

    after that failed, embarrassed, presidential run, this clown fell off.

    Give up Clef. your career is over.

  11. PistolPistol says:

    Original sucked and so do all these “freestyles”
    Fuck outta here !!

  12. BLACK EBERT says:

    WOW. Wyclef went innnn on the guitar for this one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    2 bLACK THUMBS UP

  13. Nickey Black says:

    I like this. As a dj. ….I can’t

  14. Chris says:

    In reading these comments its obvious hardly any of you listened to the lyrics. This was dope. I like how Jay Z, Pitbul, and Wyclef all spoke on their political views.

  15. Forty40 says:

    Some of the comments on here are the reason why conscious rap hardly exist….you have to dumb it down so far for the dumb to get it, by that time aint really nothing too much left to it, has to be some stupid a$$ rap beef for them to chew it!

  16. […] Tuesday (April 16), Wyclef hopped on the track, adding familiar guitar riffs from Carlos Santana’s 1999 Grammy Award-winning single […]

    “Open Letter” Jay Z says u gettin too much bread they gonna jam ya, as in hood niggas and or the media with their hate, Ross lost $3-5 mill for freedom of speech and speaking hypothetically. The premise of “Open letter” is “Freedom of Speech.”#therealness He didn’t say he had white house clearance for the trip. the reporter took a lyrics from one part of song and meshed it with lyrics from another part of song.He said he’s a boy from the hood with white house clearance, meaning everything he does is legal because he’s friends with president. then he bashes the govt in next lyric saying politician did nothin 4 him except lie n distort history. he wasn’t talking about Obama?. So how did they put white house clearance with chill u gone get me impeached? he says he’s not doing anything illegal n they tryna get him locked. so then he speaks of committing a hypothetical crime n buying a hypothetical kilo from Chief Keef n flooding streets. more word play with onion being given to him by universal records.he says hear the freedom of my speech, meaning he’s saying what he wants hypothetical or not which is an ode to Rick Ross’ rebook situation. The issue with Cuba is about Freedom and we are loosing our freedom of speech here as in Ross vs white women n Reebok He continues to talk reckless in a hypothetical way merging it with his true feeling. n speaks of his hypothetical crimes in his freedom of speech hypothetically causing the president to say chill ur words r gonna get me impeached.as Ross’ words n pressure from media caused reebok to drop him.then he compares the hypocrisy of them complaining bout him going to Cuba to the fact that we have economic problems with China n the fact that the very mic he’s on is from China, who is crippling our economy with bootlegs, mirroring our products and selling them at a much cheaper rate etc. n i’m surprised the president didn’t listen to the song and make a better comment by saying, Jay Z didnt say that, You r mixing up his lyrics.

  29. […] as far as Wyclef’s track goes, he doesn’t even mention Cuba. Instead the song comes off as little more than an opportunity […]
