Freaky Syley was RHCP's second record recorded on EMI. It was Hillel's first record with the group. This album is probably the strangest of any Chili Peppers' album to date. According to Flea, the record was "too funky for white radio, too punk rockin' for black." This album didn't really help or hurt the Chili Peppers, it just restated that there was this funk group that didn't care what people thought of them. They wanted to make it big, but that didn't impact the way they played their music. Flea was still going to play his bass like nobodies business, and they were still going to do their own thing. This his album, in my opinion, shows what the group is all about.
