MadGibbs is back.
With a handul of EPs under their belt, Freddie Gibbs and Madlib have finally decided to give the fans what they want: a full length album.
The upcoming album is called Piñata and Gibbs describes it as “a gangster Blaxploitation film on wax”. Scarface, Raekwon, Ab-Soul, BJ The Chicago Kid, Mac Miller, Danny Brown are among the emcees that all stop by for guest appearances. The first single, “Robes” features Odd Future’s Earl Sweatshirt and Domo Genesis.
“I will show you my flaws, I’ll show you what I’ve done wrong and what I’ve f**ked up at,” Gibbs says about the project. “I don’t regret s**t, but I’ll show you the things I’m not proud of. I’m about to show n***as how to rap again,” Gibbs continues. “Everybody else is going to fall in line.”
