Freeway has endured rap battles, beefs and label changes. Today he's still battling against America'sgrowing negative view of Muslims in today's climate

When he recently sat down with CNN, Philly Freezer gives us a glimpse inside his spiritual world.

"My faith means everything to me. It's the thing that keeps me going everyday. It's my core it's my soul," Freeway says.

The rapper especially finds it tough to deal with the anti-muslin sentiment seen on tv daily.

"It definitely hurts my feelings when I hear Islam getting put into a negative light," he says. "You can't judge a whole group of people for a few people making mistakes."

Freezer is currently working on an ep with producer Statik Selektah, "Statik-Free EP" that is due this year.
