AOTW: Get Busy Committee

A couple weeks back ya boy Greezy posted a dope song from King Fantastic titled 'Why? Where? What?'. After listening to that track I was optimistic about how his mixtape wold turn out, but after listening to the rest of the mixtape I was pretty disappointed expecting more of the same. aftersome time I finally realized that 'Why? Where? What?' reminded me of Get Busy Committee's 2009 album Uzi Does it. Which is good news cause Uzi Does it was kind of where I was expecting King Fantastic to go.

Hit the jump for the link and track listing.
