Freddie Gibbs on 'Bandana' Madlib and Surviving The Industry
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 июн 2019
- Freddie Gibbs is reflecting on the imagery in his song “Bandana,” which doubles as the title of his new album with Madlib: a filthy, blood-stained bandana. “You don’t never get away from that,” Gibbs adds. The 36-year-old rapper, whose catalog of songs about his eventful California-via-Indiana life has brought him critical love and a cult fanbase, is seated in a cavernous New York City studio on an early spring afternoon. “You don’t ever forget that. You don’t ever lay that down. You think about a lot of that when you sleep, when you wake up. It’s damn near like having PTSD. A lot of those images are ingrained and burned in my mind forever. So getting it out on raps is therapeutic.”

Gangsta Gibbs the realest. Bandana on repeat...
@King Savage ok
@King Savage nah bro,i just wish a good day
@King Savage well you either searched for this video or it showed up in your recommend. Why are you here?
Sad shit his homie passed, but he put him on so that's why Gibbs cried..that's appreciation and that shows your a real human.
Been a fan since BFK and this guy has never let me down.
@King Savage Bruh stfu, I've seen you around, you're a pain in the ass
He went through hell and delivered two amazing albums with madlib and alchemist. Mad respect.
MADGIBBS delivered. Bandana is AOTY, don't @ me...
Bandana has been playing on my phone since it dropped this is a really great album
Too bro
Palmolive is the greatest hip hop track of 2019 so far ‼️
Quincy Gang 🚫🧢
Big facts...that pusha verse is classic
yall are trippin go listen to benny fool
@@lucidjackson8291 you trippin nigga that shit doesn't compare..
Pusha bodied that track
Man, Gibbs is a real one. Dope interview, I love this guy. 🙌🏾
King Savage what’s the facts on that?
@King Savage get the f**k off my post with that bullshit. Don't nobody care about that negative energy.
Facts salute Gibbs
Most criminally underrated artist to ever be in the game. Bandana was a masterpiece.
"its about pimpin, drug dealin, killing.. realizing you shouldnt be killin' and that typa stuff" i remember madlib saying that in a interview about bandana about 3 years ago its like he knew this would make Gibbs not only a better MC but a better person.
Thank you for the music🙏
And Stick To Our Ribs It Did...
I Haven't Played A Recent Album Front To Back Over & Over Like This In So Long
Outside of Fetti of course
@@nolajets6382 Fetti Is Great
Alchemist Did The Damn Thing...
1,000,000% FACTS
ALL FACTS Alchemist droppin his album next!
@@dwightharris-el3603 *Hand Rub*
Josh was one of the closest and best friends in my life as well. I didn't see that coming and had me crying as soon as Freddie was right here. I miss him every damn day of my life. Phenomenal album and by far best record of the year. Deserve all the credit success and attention both of them should have had as artists in this industry since day one.. If you haven't checked out the first collab def pick up "Piñata" Certified classic just as Bandana already is.
Big respect to Freddie Gibbs. 💯
Madlib produced this whole album on an IPAD!?!? The MF 🐐🐐
that is some OG shit right there. it just shows producers that you can make fire with any tool.
Nah he just said that to piss people off. He pretty much said. Make your fucking music, doesn’t matter what you make it on just make sure it’s good.
@@MrKinkysloth I saw the tweet but did he say he was playing?
That cant be true because some of the beats madlib already had in the tuck and she played for freddie
He made the beat for No more parties in LA on an IPad and that’s from the same batch as the Bandana beats, so it’s definitely possible
He's more laidback and humble than I expected.
(hungover)
hes more tense and cocky than you expeced
Man has been through hell & back over the last 3 years
BEEN DOWN SINCE "STR8 KILLA NO FILLA".. 10 YEARS.. HAPPY 4 MY BOY.. I KNOW THEM TEARZ ARE REAL.. RESPECT THE GAME
I always wanted to hear Fred & Nipsey sucks we’ll never get that collab 💯🔵🏁
Tevin Hemmans a collab where Nipsey lays out something fresh yes never.. however there’s probably hundreds if not thousands of unreleased material that nipsey has where Freddie could hop on. never say never.
@@tommymello1693 both my fav artists but don't nobody wanna hear that. I hate that shit. Gibbs even said he don't like when niggas try n jump on a track with a dead artist.
Right tho shit would've been godly
Bandana & Victory Lap were recorded at the same time in the same building gibbs said...maybe theres one madlib has stashed hes waiting for the right time to put out...
Fred never did a song with Nip(60's) out of loyalty to Lil Sodi(8 Tre), they did shows together though.
Isn’t it a beautiful sight to see so many people in the comments arguing about which track is the best 😌 goes to show this album did not disappoint!
Album is absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥 Top of the world!! 🌍 I can’t remember the name of the track but when he spits like bone thugs 💥💥💥💥
Situations
Situations...
That Shit TOO Fire
@King Savage you're an anime dweeb. your opinion holds no weight 😂😂😂😂
Hip hop heads recognize real hip hop
King Savage Bro I see you under every thread under this video talking shit about this man! Go do something and stop spreading hate on another person, I can’t believe people do this with their time! Smh
Freddie Gibbs is such a real one 💯
You've been through so much! Im so proud been a fan for a few years.
Freddie Gibbs is such a real one. All of his tapes knock & he always keeps it regular
It's been a long time since I've been excited to hear someones project. Gibbs is one of my top 5 favorite artists I like to listen to in todays music industry .
Probably one of my favorite rappers right now his music is timeless, I've just discovered him this year and man it has been just a groove keep up the outstanding work Freddie mad respect🙏🏼
One of the realest dudes out here! Honest and humble and open. You don’t get a lot of that. Not to mention that album is bananas. Perfect combo
After seeing him perform Gat Damn live in Pomona, Gibbs is the realest artist I’ve ever heard, mad respect and props for the amazing show.
Saw maybe a third of this vid a while ago. Came across it today, decided to finish it and didn’t expect to see Gibbs cry. Shows how much his friend meant to him and that he’s truly grateful for their help. Rest In Peace Josh
Gangsta Gibbs is the man, I’m glad I’ve been on to his music for some time now. he is truly a great lyricist. May the lord continue to bless him and his fam.
Bruh is one of my favorite rappers... This interview was great. He should be interviewed more often.
He's a thug. Can't be out there too much or the feds start asking questions
Im so glad I stumbled upon Freddie Gibbs by accident. He is so underrated and one of the best out right now
Yooo this is Complex’s best interview, hands down. Gibbs is legendary.
This interview made me appreciate the album, and to extent Freddie, more than even.
I been listening to you for a long time gibbs I'm glad to see the growth....be blessed brother the music you made got me thru the darkness
This is dope! I've heard Freddie Gibbs over the years, but the stuff he does with madlib is on a whole nother level. When he talks about having him push him to be a better mc, I can hear the MC that Freddie Gibbs can really be. This does make him upper Escalon.
Gibbs is a dope rapper. One of the best there is right now. I’m glad he linked up with Madlib. I feel like Madlib can bring out the best in a good MC and really show the world their potential. Both their records together are instant classics for me.
Gibbs truely one of the realest in this rap game, he deserves all these accolades and then some! Keep doing you G!
He’s a real G. I’m happy for him it’s been a rough couple of years. Madlib and Freddie are my favorite duo.
so real. mad respect to freddie gibbs. congratulations on the album, loved every track of it.
this the smoothest album from front to back I heard in a minute.
🔥🔥🔥 Album OG! I know I’m not alone saying your albums got me thru times that seemed unclear and I can still put on Any other song of yours and it doesn’t get old 💯✊
I don't think no one is as versatile as Gibbs, homie flow is mind boggling
All love to Gangsta Gibbs and Madlib. Thank you for all the stories and music.
big respect. banger of an album. all the best!
Finally officially arrived, been here stayed down went thru it all and the bullshit. His love n passion for music kept him goin. God Bless this man, finally se love you Em, all the greats but never got the credit they deserved. Gibbs made a classic, how many can say that in any era of music or rap... Chase your dreams at all costs and stay strong even when you wanna give up, keep going n watch God work💯💯💯💯
Give this man his flowers while he here Freddie G the 🐐
U know i remember gibbs when was down with jeezy i never got into his music until recently gota say he is dope MC i like his shyt
Goddamn man I love Freddie, he's the realest. Haven't had a love for an artist like him since Pac really. RIP to his homie Josh - Gibbs keeping his name alive. #BANDANA
Gary, is home for me too, but I am glad he made it out, so he could grow. East side 36th Pl. and Tennessee!
✊🏾
My top Favorite Rappers of this generation Freddie Gibbs, Curren$y, Starlito, And Nipsey Hussle I’m Happy I’ve seen all of them in concert and happy that they’ve made music together
Simply the realest, the most underrated.
I love how he mentioned how he wanted to make something that'll stick. Though there is good music out there, lots is quite disposable. Madlib and Freddie made something that you wanna keep spinning for ages.
Freddie Gibbs is my favorite. Best out right now. Flow is undeniable the craziest
My dawg shed a tear..... always been a real one 💪💪💪
Madgibbs needs to just be a rap duo and make mad music together! Can’t get enough of this combo.
Always help your friends they could be the next Freddie Gibbs 😎 seriously though that was an amazing interview. Can’t wait to cop this album
Yes Freddie, we love you back! That interlude on Crime Pays got me laughing and feeling good over and over. Josh would be proud.
First came across Freddie with BFK video. He's so dope and this was a great and therapeutic exchange for him. I wish him continued success, so dope lyrically and technically with his raps. Salute to Freddie, Madlib and RIP Josh.
I love how hes keepin it real! mad respect
Salute Gangsta Gibbs! This man’s been thru it, still standing!
When he shed that tear I did to. Damn near broke down 💔
man rip the homie josh. i never seen freddie be this vulnerable before. powerful emotions hit when you lose someone close like that bruh. i feel his pain
And Big Time Watts
Damn. Gibbs is a legend. Respect to this man.
That's a honest ass interview!!!!.....cant get any realer than that...
Great interview glad Gibbs is finally getting his shine, R.I.P. Josh The Goon
Just recently been listening to this dude, and to be honest he’s the real deal!
literally an instant classic, two kings in top form
This album was amazing 😪
damn man I feel your pain, you're a genius bro
Madlib carrying on tradition as one hip hop purest beat makers a technician at his craft. A Scientist, Freddie is one dopest spitters we have in the game hope his notoriety goes through the roof.
My nigga's a real one definitely one of my favs of today 🙏🏿👊🏿💪🏿💯
Another classic
Bandana IS a 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥album. beats & rhymes are DOPE!!!! Classic!!! London, England in the building!! ✊🏾👊🏾
Such a genuine dude
After the therapy episode with Dr. Siri Sat Nam Singh, to see Freddie cry on camera or open up like this, specially on tracks like "Fake Names" or "Practice", i feel only genuine happiness for the man. It's amazing to have a great artist promoting growth of self and humanity through very subtle ways, no having to fake an image or lie, just him being him, and that's (for me) what makes his lyrics great, solid and straight hellfire. Makes me strive do be a better person
Man I love Freddie, one of the realest dudes ever
Salute to him. Authentic about his life and his craft.
Madlib GOAT STATUS, my main inspiration. Hope to meet him one day and Gibbs
The album is ridiculously dope I wish he would just face the fact that him and Madlib make classics together and he sounds best with him
Fuck that bro. Yes the 2 albums with Madlib are his best but Gibbs is versatile to pull working with anybody off. He sounds fire over Kenny Beats production + Fetti with Alchemist is fire too.The whole BFK slaps. Shit Fred don't got a bad project
Naw you only live 2wice and ESPN was dope albums also
@@geno7572 Shadow Of A Doubt 🔥
Freddie Gibbs so real. And Madlib. Big ups to them 🔥🔥🔥
One of the best rappers right now!! Bandana is a perfect example of this dude’s skill.
Big up to Gibbs for being a real one. Seen him on his Piñata tour and dude really puts in all to his music and performances. Glad him and Madlib made shit happen. Two greats killin the game! #madlibinvazion #esgn

Freddie Kane! Bandana is an amazing piece of work. Him and Madlib are the new Gang Starr
Cool, Creative, brother. 👏🏾🍾

Damn this nigga story so deep its crazy. How do you be in rap since 07 and just not get your first big break in 2019! It’s perfect because he has a lot to rap about which makes him so good for the industry
Keeping it real, a man can show emotion(S) and cry too
