GIBBS!

It has to be said, artists such as Blu, J.cole and Lupe were the newcomes who really wet my Hip Hop-attuned taste buds last decade in terms of musicianship and straight lyrics. Though it was Freddie Gibbs at the end of the 00's that got me most excited for reasons i'm about to explain.
In this current age of watered down Hip Hop, recycled beats and the emergence of college rappers, a firm 90's head like me needs some hard beats, street talk and dope lyrics every now and then.
When trying to fulfil this daily quota of aggression or at least street politics, i turn to Freddie Gibbs.

Call me a dreamer but i hope the day comes when Freddie really blows up and gives the industry a piece of his mind. I wouldn't blame him for doing so, but he seems like the kind of character that will never switch up his style in the name of making paper like say B.O.B has done to great effect.

The reason i made this post on our guy in Gary (since i already made a post on him) is to showcase his latest video and his new EP.
The HD camera is lookin' so fresh and the concept is ill. Not to mention the beat is too hard and his slow lethargic flow is just off the hook.
