Just f as in fan then roll the r. Frrrrrrrrrrr. Fr fr sounds like two short bursts of submachine gun fire.
Pretty sure it's just expanded and pronounced "for real," so frfr would be "for real for real."
It's halfway in between. You say "f'ree". It sits in the spot between 1 and 2, like a wobbly and uncertain syllable, that lingers as "mine" beyond "me".
Notice how the former is longer than the latter, despite being the same number of notes. A warble, a wiggle, a bridge between meters, "FR" is timed out like "baroque".
This is how I'll talk to my kids. Not because they spend too much time on my phone, but because I look at too many memes
