I love how this album doesn’t rehash Piñata but still sounds like it’s sequel. After 5 years I was worried it wouldn’t live up to the hype but after 3 spins its easily my AOTY and probably on par with Piñata.

Freddie Gibbs discography might just be head and shoulders above his peers. First heard him on .38 on Jeezy’s album and he hasn’t let me down since

"The love of your life rap n*gga wear fake watches
The serial number don't match the gift boxes
The bezel on her ballon bleu do the Tinashe
The b*tch told me two-tone Rollies was too blasé"

He's speaking English with a really heavy Japanese accent

The first thing he says on 'Obrigado' is "Now presenting my niccas, Madlib and Freddie Gibbs, It is time for Bandana, bytch, so turn your speakers up. Lets go bytch"
