    Never been big into cocaine, is that something people freebase often? My understanding is that smoking crack is done via freebase, but i not at all into crack so what do I know?

      It was popular before the rise of crack cocaine. It’s what Richard Pryor was doing when he accidentally lit himself on fire.

      Freebasing is smoking cocaine or more specifically converting it via heat. You need a torch if it is powder, but if you have melted it already into crack you can use a regular lighter.
