The CONTROVERSIAL Story Of Freddie Gibbs

- Опубліковано 29 лис 2023
- While in recent years Freddie’s reputation and image have taken immense damage I don’t think that should fully take away from everything that he's done to get to where he is at. Today I'll tell the story of Freddie Gibbs from his come-up in the dangerous streets of Gary, Indiana to finally making his mark in the music industry after years of hard work.

What are your current thoughts of Freddie Gibbs?
He needs to focus on music besides Kendrick he's put out some of the most impactful hip hop albums in the last 10-12 years.....
The man has the talent and range and has a base
Him being a cuck turned me away from his art.
I just felt like bro started taking Ls when he started beefing with Benny I mean coming from a major Freddie fan ever since then it’s been rocky from him but hope he can bounce back 🗿
Waiting to see how he comes back from all the controversy. The days of him wilding on social media are sorely missed, his music is still fire so what happens next will make or break his career.
Well guys, I'm an OG, 55 and the only thing I know about Freddie, I learned watching this documentary.
But IMO and from what little bit I know about this hip hop scene, Freddie probably didn't make the big time, because there's something about him that's not marketable. There's a lot of rappers with less talent than Freddie, who made it. Why, because something about them is marketable.
Freddie hasn't played the LGBT card, so maybe that's why he hasn't made it. I don't know, I'm just a 55-year old dude, who's way out of his lane discussing this with you youngsters.
Freddie Gibbs and Madlib is one of the greatest collabs since cereal and milk
The biggest lesson I've learned with Freddie is to separate the art from the artist. He can make fire and time less music but he keeps taking L after L. It's a rough time to be a Freddie Gibbs fan. But honestly who cares at the end of the day. He's one of the best MCs of our generation so really we should just appreciate the music.
What he do to keep Taking L after L? What happened?
@@TruthTella40lol. You don't know? Lol
Taking L is apart of MANHOOD/Life and if you can't take "L" than... IDK🤦🏿♂️ y'all niggas are lost...
Do you really have to separate the art with Fred?? I guess if you really wanted to believe he was some untouchable drug lord. 😂 He didn’t do some R. Kelly shit or anything wrong, just talk shit and get beat up.
@@bluu_ice6554 nawl lol ?
Shout out to Freddie Gibbs. I was attending Ball State University when he was playing football and stayed in the same dorms. I had no clue he was a rapper. I dropped out and joined the Air Force. Years later while listening to Sirius satellite I kept hearing the name Freddie and he came to mind but I didn't know it was him until I saw him in a interview.
He got a bad choice in *women*
He great beat selection tho 😮
Facts.
ReAL AFFF LMAOO
Freddie's IG was legendary
Best time to be on IG was when Freddie posted all dem stories
@@HS_Rick crackrockrabbit15 he still does it
@@HS_Rick good crack
Freddie should have 1000% won that Grammy.
Ive been listening to him since 2011, none of these problems hes had with people are gonna change my opinion of him. Hes a great rapper period. None of that other stuff matters to me
facts honestly it clearly doesnt matter to him as well since he never slowed down
Freddie wilds out and does crazy shyt at times but honestly the dude is NICE AF and it's hard to deny his talent whether you love him or hate him as a person. Every project he drops I check for.
I'm a 90's vet, but his track "Black Illuminati" with Jadakiss is one of the greatest tracks I've heard in recent times 👊🏻
been bumping that on repeat for the last 3 days after remembering it 😂 absolute masterpiece
Best discography over the past decade belongs to Gangsta Gibbs
Gibbs is really a goat . People look at him a little goofy now but he’s undeniable . If he mellows out with online bullshit his legacy will be all good . Dope video. Heard of him since str8 killa no filla. So much good music . BFK blew my mind at the time . Barbarian with mad style .
BFK is so damn good
BFK was also the song that got me properly following everything he does
He's definitely the most unapologetic MC in today's era; whether it be in the studio or off the studio as a individual. Gotta respect that before his high MCing abilities.
One of the best rappers of this era, would love to see a new project
You must be buggin or you don't get out much, stra8 crappola!! Same old 💩, wack is hell!
Been a big fan of Freddie way before GTA 😁 one of the best decisions in my life was to go see him performing live
I saw 1985 live a couple months ago and that shit got everyone crazy hype
I wish I could have seen him when he was here, love that song.
One of the best and most prolific rappers of the last decade.
Every great artist is a train wreck in their own mind. Freddie just hasn’t managed his life and when he finally does he will stop writing. David Bowie said he was afraid to become content because then he wouldn’t want to write anymore. That’s a real fear some really great artists have.
Bowie had to learn to be happy and Freddie has to learn the same lesson. In the meantime his music is pure fire 🔥
Aye I never really noticed how crazy that freshman cover was goin😂all the locs to the left & red team to the right
THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT JOSH (GOON). Freddie talked about everything Goon did for him. Thank you for that too Freddie. Goon was my friend, as Freddie will tell you he was one of the best people to have on your side. Much appreciated for getting Freddie’s and Goons history correct from what I know. I wasn’t there but I’ve heard and I also remember what Freddie said at Josh’s wake. RIP GOON. You really are missed. I was literally just talking about you the other day with the wolfs head brothers.
Goon was my homie too. And I miss him so much to this day. That guy was definition of a solid dude. #goonforever
@@lifetimeak nice to meet you. He was really loved over here. RIP to the big guy.
Dope video & assessment of Freddie's career. As someone who was trying to create a buzz back in 2010, I really admire Gibbs' perseverance. Like a lot of artists, things don't immediately take off, even though they sign to a major label/ distributor. Then to go the independent route & carve out a following, leading to your career coming full circle, is so Inspirational.
Though I Never listened to the entire "Alfredo" / Alchemist collab, nor the entire "King's Disease" / Nas & Hitboy collab... I Really love the song "Baby sh*t" off of Freddie's album, and that alone makes me bias towards him. And wish that he won the Grammy over Nas (despite growing up listening to Nas, as well as being from the midAtlantic.)
You the police
That was a great documentary young fellow.
Before watching your video, I didn't have the slightest idea who Freddie Gibbs was and honestly didn't care, but I know now.
You're an excellent story teller and i watched your video from cover to cover.
Keep up the good work, I'm watching now.
That was definitely the goal! Many don't know his story and that's what I wanted to document. Minus all of the recent stuff he really has a crazy story
@@cloutcancun nobody talks about the group he was with in Gary when he first started.. y'all not a real Gibbs fan if u don't kno.. my homie went to Vincennes Indiana college where some Gary dudes was selling out the trunk..
Pinata was my favorite track
He has talent that’s not up for discussion it’s just he’s marketable enough to go too the top.
When I think of Gary Indiana, Original Gangstas come to mind.
Really, lol?! No Michael Jackson, King of Pop or The Jacksons?!
“ I was one of the Original Rebs” ❤
What's most disappointing was the fallout with Benny the Butcher. That collab album would've been insane!
I love Freddie but he always on ho shit. Burned multiple bridges. What could’ve been.
Really Good and imformative video. Thanks for the sum up.
I wish Gibbs would just focus on the music and stay off the internet unless he's promoting music. I always knew he had the talent and happy for his success later in his career but it seems the bigger he's gotten as a artists the harder he's falling. It seems he has some internal issues and I hope he gets help and doesn't crash out.
I fucked with Freddie Gibbs and still rocked his music. The beefs and controversies didn't take a hit on his career per se. Just his presence on social media... In fact, I think that a lot of hip hop fans waited for Gibbs to take L's for years because of his rabid shit-talking, social media antics and his rep as a Vice Lord. The biggest L that Freddie took was impregnating a peon who sells content on OF in his early 40s. He should've married with his last baby mama who is more of a modest lady. Outside of that... getting jumped by over 20 men and performing on stage at the same day isn't a L to me. He didn't get knocked out. Most people would've tapped out. The same ones that said his gangsta is fabricated would have their iron with them if they're getting jumped or ran away. Nothing more contradicting and habitual line stepping than niggas... Especially when the same situation is on their way. The energy will never be the same and that's hilarious.
I still don't believe Jim Jones (a rapper who took the most L's in the 2000s) and his posse beat Freddie Gibbs and his guards up in Miami. It was a minor scruffle. And you know this era of hip-hop is in a blizzaro world when Jim Jones is relevant and people believing his lies especially in the streets. LMAO
Real fans knows Gibbs is flawed... But, he still entertaining and his mental resilience in uncomfortable positions made people to respect him more. All I learn from Gibbs is not having bad taste in women, not making baby mamas and making insensitive remarks to ruin relationships. Because of the Benny beef... The culture lost a potential duo, incredible music and a friendship. Same apply with him and Curren$y. With all that said... Gibbs is going to be among the all time greats in Hip-hop after all said and done. He should concentrate on music and other endeavors instead of beefing in a petty way. Or the better advice is reconcile and patching up relationships to lessen the stain that's happening right now. That's my opinion.
yup if he would have married Erica and just stopped with the hoes he would have been way better off. she held it down when he was locked up but Gibbs is his own man at the end of the day 🤷🏽♂️
Rap fans are corny for considering getting jumped as an L to begin with. The fuck he supposed to do, turn into the incredible hulk? Show me someone who can win a scrap with 20 dudes in real life.
@@joeyramirez8211 Yeah... He fucked that up and fumbled.
@@LiquidDIO Exactly. Hella corny... The majority of them wouldn't last. Imagine if Gibbs got his steel and he deleted a few of Benny's men... Now, they will switch up and say "That's foul and he's stupid for that". When most of them will do the same thing. They move the goalpost all the time to justify shit. I hated it.
after reading this comment im not even gonna watch this. very well said, completely agree.
Dudes hilarious, genuine and makes some of the only real rap that exist today. Only sour people go out of their way to hate on gibbs. lame af for hating.
Cold day in hell was such a fcukin classic I still bang that!
You killed this!!! Well done bro!!!
Thank you I really appreciate that 🙏 I’m a fan of your work as well
Fr!
Your videos are dope brother!! Keep dropping them k
We definitely don’t claim spreddy Gibbs in Chicago. Chicago don’t claim Gary Indiana at all whatsoever.
I agree. Im from tha G and we don’t claim Chicago at all. He must got family ova there.
Awesome piece! Gratitude 🤝🏾
Since we already in the Midwest what's the chances of getting a Payroll giovanni doc next??👀👀👀
Agreed with everything you said man. Freddie was my favorite rapper in the 2010s. But in the last few years the beefing shit really turned me off from him. But can’t deny how good his music is.
Amazing vid bro
Sani G here. Gangster Island was me and Fred's first mixtape. We were featured on a few of these together..people need to start interviewing people that "used to " work with him. That's how u get the real stories
S/O to D Edge, Hit, DJ Roc and many more that contributed to Fred being where he is today and guys he doesn't recognize. You can look up all their music
Couldn’t have summed this up any better myself I never fully thought of what that overseas jail stint could’ve done to Gibbs mind but NGL the last 2 years or so have kept my face in my palm it kinda sucks seeing these hits his rep/image has taken especially given since I been rocking with him since the XXL cover I definitely recall saying to myself that when the Buffalo incident occurred that he really should just go home be with his family and reassess his life but … I’m always wishing the best Gibbs is top 10 always and forever
I think you should do a Dom Kennedy video as soon as possible before stunted growth does bc I really thought Dom was going to be HUGE when I first started bumping him in 2010 (fell off with him mid 2013)
I think Stunted Growth covered Dom Kennedy just recently
AGREED. Seeing how he going out with his newest BM was tragic for me. I rocked with his music for so long and at a certain point around the time cold day came out I met & smoked with him, he showed me hella love at the time I almost feel like he may not be the same person. No way a nigga could rap that hungry shit for so long & go out this sad. All these niggas in the comments making excuses for bro should be ashamed as well💯😒
Good documentary. A LOTTTT of IMPORTANT FACTS left out but I definitely fux with it. Shout out to Gibbs…💯🙏🏽
As far as an Artist, he's 🔥
Thanks for tha video
I got put on to Freddie Gibbs back in the day when I used to look on Nah Right's website. I heard National Anthem off of the Str8 Killa EP and loved that beat and how he was flowing on it. He definitely had vocals that made him stand out. One thing you didn't mention was his beef with Jeezy after leaving CTE which definitely left a bad taste in my mouth with Freddie. It just felt like it came out of no where and he was doing it to gain clout. Looking at this docu definitely put that move he made into perspective giving all the work he put in leading up to that point and I can see why he made such a desperate move but I still don't agree with it. Like others said, if you just merit his music alone and ignore all the strange choices and what I see as antics he makes outside that he definitely deserves some recognition.
Real one of the hardest diss tracks of all time tho
I agree with your opinion on the Grammys. For a lot of reasons.
Original Gangstas was filmed in Gary Ind. “Boosie Collins” son Dru Down(Kayo) played in the movie.
I remember seeing Freddie at the topanga mall in CA a few days after he was acquitted and came home. I said hey Freddie! He said wassup baby and smiled. He had a pop up that Saturday so I’m assuming he was shopping for that occasion. Seen him twice around my city, love him sm ❤
Great job 💯 One of my all time favorite artists 💯
Did Freddie even do anything wrong? I feel like people who care about the shit talked about at the end are just chronically online. None of that stuff really affects the music, and I’d think most people don’t even know about the at stuff
Pinata, alfredo and fetti are top tier projects 👌 it's frank Lucas ft benny on alfedo for me
"For you" 🥱🙄
Never heard Gibbs claim Chicago
I was thinking of Gibbs last night, opened YT and this popped up. Perfect timing
Well done on the content. The recap towards the end was appreciated. Salute!
my fav freddie gibbs song is lay it down.......
The Fascinations on the intro 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
i dont give a fuck about akademiks, MONTANA boutta be crazy, we gotta end the madgibbs trilogy
I’m from Rockford Illinois and grew up with some dudes from Gary Indian Freddie had to learn real lint to be a vice lord, I respect that brother.
shout out to Fred Van Fleet!
Yea alot mfs here in Gary don't no lit or creed or prayers lot of false flaggers in Gary they don't even got real lingos they talk proper as hell
Baby face Killa is by far my favorite Freddie Gibbs album.
Controversial shit doesn’t outweigh the fact this man has lyrical talent. There’s nobody touching Freddie in this gangsta shit in the game rn maybe Jayrock but even then. I’d still put Gibbs work over any jayrock album any day
Benny the butcher
@@noneofyourbusiness1114I fw Benny but he is not better at spitting than Freddie he was made for this Benny was influenced by his cousins Conway & west side to rap
Great documentary!
12:48 Great point on gangsta rap!
15:13 HE WENT IN OVER THAT SADE SAMPLE, ONE OF THE BEST SONGS FROM THE TAPE FRFR!
Damn freddie gibbs really been through hell.
I remember hearing stories of when he was a drug dealer in Gary that were just fucking crazy too, apparently him and a few others robbed a freight train once 😂
I still enjoy his music. He's still one of my favorite current MCs
Great video and it came at the right time because I was just thinking about whether or not Freddie Gibbs really lived the life he claims he did. I swear when he didn't expose so much of his life and had this aura of mystique about him, that's when he was a beast for real! Artists have to learn how to shut up and keep a level of mystery about him.
Me and my brother was talking about this the other day. They gotta BE QUIET and just let the music speak.
I agree 4 sure
Gibbs soft and he the police
Mann I used to have that crime pays on repeat 🔥🔥🔥
Great work on your part … but for Freddie, nobody is perfect and fame is a hard beast to tame … he’s not the only one who went through this walk. I hope he bounces back and shows us dope music. Everybody likes a good come back story .
Wild I discovered freddie the same way you did, went to tech n9nes concert at house of blues in Chicago 2014. After freddie performed kush clouds I knew dude was dope and been fuckin with him ever since! Thanks for the comprehensive video on gibbs!
Ironically, Freddie Gibbs is Jeezy most successful signing and the only talent credited to him that's still around and stands on his own.
What about YG?
32 mins about Gibbs? yeah baby
I remember when I first heard of him, he came to my city and I ended up winning two tickets to his show, that shii was hard, seen him perform east side moonwalker and some other hard songs 😮💨🔥
Getting jumped twice kinda made it hard being a big Freddie fan but the Spreadie thing made it crazy hard 😂
Yeah man. I be rootin for the nigga and he end up lookin goofy online, beefin wit dj ak and shit. That aint gnagsta, gangstalicious.
ok cartman
Goofy ah
Anyone can be jumped the odds are against you then and the speedy thing that was between him and his woman not like he was asking for a man.
I met him very briefly a year ago, he seemed like a real down to earth and laid back guy, don't even care what he does online, he hasn't done enough to seem like a bad person. Also his music fire.
Josh the Goon RIP was a great friend of mine and he also has credits and that Madlib,Gibbs album.
He makes fire music but why everybody saying he takes L`s?What he is experiencing is just life and in life without guidance of The Most High we all can make bad choices.
🙏🏿 a Benny & Gibbs project would have been 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 2 of my favorites…damn wish they could reconcile
One of my favorite rappers of all time.
Sprinkling pills on his weed? What a waste of pills. Lol… 🤦♂️
Funny af you used the fascinations in the beginning with him beefin with Benny
I respect the hustle and talent.
Great video. Still fuck with Freddie, and Benny, and everyone man, these guys make music and if I like their music, that's about it. Freddie is super talented and I hope he keeps putting our dope shit 🖤🖤🖤
I like his music he's very talented and by me being from the Midwest I know he needs to stay humble
Freddie a #legend and a #goat period STAYS in constant rotation
I phucks with him no matter what I heard
After seeing Freddie trying to make thing work with interscope records, I wonder if they could've made him a member of G-Unit like they did with Buck & Game. They would have had a Midwest member to add to the already, South, east & west artist they already had, just a theory 🤔
Beautiful intro
ive got freddie gibbs signed copies of bandana on white vinyl
Love Gibbs thru and thru, been a big fan for ages and easily my favorite artist for a substantial portion of my life. I personally believe Gibbs is the most talented rapper. Don't agree with everything he says or does but I'm also not the type of person to have a drug rapper as an idol. He makes good music, he flows over any beat he's given, his ability to work with any producer is one to be respected.
Gibbs learned you can't talk shit about NY State , as a whole and expect to do business here without getting your chain snatched
Damn im really out the loop. I love gangsta gibbs. He was my first concert. Huge fucking fan but then these past couple of years I just havent been paying attention to music at all. I have no idea what the comments are talking about so now I'm hooked to see whats up.
He just made a song with Kanye today too, you have more to catch up on than you think 😂
Gangsta gibbs! 🔥🔥🔥
Freddie da 🐐‼️
Good research 🏌♂️
Been to his only show in Poland a few years back!
Man I remember going to the boys n girls club downtown, and going to the Genesis Center to watch the Steelheads play and if you don't wat The Village is you not from the G
I love Freddie man and that’s that ❤
What’s this song in the background
In the intro
U got a lot of this story wrong. How do I know. I put Freddie Gibbs on.
7:59 I mean, the man wasn't exactly wrong because at that specific time. We're talking about a military who let an NFL athlete join to go to war and fight for his country, and he was literally killed by friendly fire. And it was also under some suspicion that the guy was drunk when he did it. But that was literally covered up by our own government. And we were lied to for months and they hid everything from the investigation and his family that they could just to cover up. The truth and they don't care about the guys that are cooked out of their mind 3 days a week, but that dude that smoked a joint a month ago?.... He should be dishonorably discharged. F*** out of here.
brah what is the name of the first song dat shit hard! the first gibbs song
ua-cam.com/video/7MR-hsTNwuE/v-deo.html
Yea that shit is hard af! He got another sleeper track that I think is one of his best called "all cognac" have you heard it?
He need just the right beats and he destroy everything 🔥
And now has arguably the best verse on Kanye's x Ty Dolla Sign's Album Vultures
