Sage is back! It seems like forever since we have heard from Sage Francis, but he is finally back! Any fan of Sage will know about his "Sick Of" mixtape series, and this is the 5th installment. Don't get me wrong, I am a fan of Sage, but as his career progressed, he got a little weird for me, but maybe I was just getting a little weird myself. This mixtape is straight fire/hip hop and the reason I became a fan of this man... Straight hip-hop rhymes and beats. If you have never heard of him, check this out. But but but wait it gets better, he is offering the mixtape for free! Click the album cover to download. But before you do that read below and find out why he released this tape, how far some of the beats date back, and how you can get an autographed copy for yourself.



"I wasn't sure if I would ever release another mix of this sort after the last one, but it's been a couple years since my last official album and I've accumulated a large number of "left over" tracks that never found their way onto an official album. I also opened up the 4-track vault this year and was able to unearth some solid material that dates back to 1996.

My music career, as most people know it, essentially began with the "Sick of Waiting" mixtape in 1999. Now that I've typed that out I've realized that we're essentially celebrating the "Sick of" mixtape series' 10th birthday. Hot damn. It seems like just yesterday I was dubbing all the original tapes, cutting and pasting the album covers, writing out the album info on the stickers, and selling them hand-to-hand at shows. Time (f)lies." -Sage Francis
