Apr 23, 2015 Freddie Gibbs is a Gary, Indiana native born "just a hop, skip and a jump from the Chi". His influences range from the local and forgotten Psycho Drama to the mythic candy painted stylings of UGK to the graphic gospels of Scarface and (obviously) Pac. The seminal project Pinata, alongside Madlib, brought attention to a rapper whose success was anything but instantaneous. Interscope wouldn't ink the deal. Jeezy wouldn't put out his project. So Gibbs put out a string of solid mixtapes, made ESGN a brand as well as a movement, and all without selling his soul. He's currently working with Drake affiliates in Toronto on the sound for his next project due later this year.
