Gil Scott-Heron reinforces his position as Godfather of Rap on Free Will, an introspective and soulful album roughly the length of a demo tape. Police brutality, the consequences of violence and self-exploration on this re-issue make excellent arguments for his place in the canon of spoken word — not only because of his lyrical content and profundity, but because he was a master of delivery, even in his idealistic twenties.
Scott-Heron is most effective during meditations on potential freedoms and where they can be found, when he allows his theories to blend with the melancholy music that plays throughout.
