Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Bandana (Discussion Thread)

[skb1065]

The second release of a planned trilogy (Montana is up next) that mirrors a Quentin Tarantino filmography where disconnected movies share key elements, Bandana finds Gibbs’ introspective, auto-fire raps feeling right at home over Lib’s dusty, exuberant production. -2dopeboyz

It will make me months if not a year to digest this classic

I am still playing Pinata!

The title track on the deluxe version is dope. This is just a Flawless project all around

Excellent album, but I didn’t expect anything less from the creators of Piñata.

I made a playlist this morning. I put Bandana, then Fetti, then Piñata, then Deep, Terrorist, Home, and Knicks Remix.

It’s not much more than two hours. Enjoy

Donny sample? On which track? There's so much going on with this album I must have missed it

Dope album on first listen....

Only flaw on the album is the vocal levels & mixing on 'Education"....

Sounds like Mos Def recorded his verse straight after being force fed on that Guantanmo Bay shyt

Ima be real i was kinda worried....Freestyle shyt and Half Manne were just ok to me I was like uh oh but once Crime Pays hit...the rest of the album is A1. Definitely lives up to Pinata. Them 1st couple traks had ya boy concerned tho

This shyt official...i hope he does numbers(100K) the first week and can get a mainstream push. Out here in LA, they've been promoting this album like crazy, billboards errwhere

I'm just happy Gibbs was able to slowly bounce back from that fuc shyt they tried to do him in Austria...looks like his career is going better than ever

This might just be a classic album

might...MIGHT?

The first two tracks are some of my favorites.

Honestly flat tummy tea is probably my least favorite but everything on here’s fire.

That’s dope they have promoted it hard in LA.

I’m also happy Gibbs bounced back and is better than ever. I swear to god I thought between the this era where accusations can end you, him being a black man and her being a white woman, in another country??? I thought he was done. Like if not prison, certainly that his career was over.

And I never hear bullshyt from ANYONE about him not being falsely accused. And he’s not cynical about it all.

So happy for the man.
