Chris Rivers has been dropping off new music every Wednesday as part of his new weekly series, Barzday Wednesday. Each week, he puts his spin on popular beats. Last week, he went in on Kendrick Lamar and Rich The Kid's "New Freeze" and prior to that, he rocked to freestyle over Tyler The Creator's breakthrough single, "Yonkers." Today, he comes through with a brand new freestyle over Lupe Fiasco's "Fighters."

Chris Rivers returns with another edition to his weekly series with a freestyle over Lupe Fiasco's "Fighters." It's a different vibe than what he's done with previous weeks. He's still flexing his lyrical prowess but it's less aggressive than usual. He gets on a more emotional vibe while adding a bit of melodies to his delivery. 

Quotable Lyrics
Most people are trapped inside
Allusions, they been using and blown fuses
That's been fused with this confusion 
While the real, we been refusin'
