Free Agents is a loosely knit group of "rap comrades" who came together to make a statement about independence and ownership in a turbulent time in the music industry. The group consists of Jay Tee, B-12 & Young Dru and their first album Negotiations was released in 2002. The album was advertised as having "No Features, No Fillers."[1] This can be seen as a departure of the norm by avoiding an album cluttered with guest appearances and over-priced producers.[2]
