Man it sounded like Benny had a 100 more bars for that Frank Lucas beat

Freddie isn't' 1 dimensional

 

[Paper Boi]

the flow on baby shyt is something else.

 

[DoubleClutch]

except pusha giving verses today that r interchangeable w/ when he first came out. gibbs is a better artist w/ more quality projects id add. his rhymes are alot more personal too. hell have some shame or self deprecation behind his stories rather than coming off some character, superhero. almost the type of content youd get from malice before pusha.

Yea id say pusha is a better mc and Gibbs is more of writer

Gangsta Gibbs does blow? Heard some references to it

 

[TheDarceKnight]

It's crazy to me when people say he's one dimensional like he ain't make shyt like Soul Right, Practice, Broken etc... Live 2wice.... You could literally see he's Scarface's offspring.

To what you and @Piff Perkins said

at this point I really think a lot of people just don’t really listen to Gibbs but have their mind made up about his content.

Nah but he’s mentioned his slight drug abuse when the weed and liquor ain’t hitting. The little nuggets and stories layered in his bars... I don’t see the one dimensional/drug/ hustler talk..especially with Bandana and this project.

1985 & Look At Me are weak production wise?

Take it even farther back, he mentions that shyt on "shytsville" off Bandana

Drink all the liquor, blow weed, probably play with your nose
You motherfukkers just like me

It really is tho, you call tell some ppl don't actually listen to the music just find a generic critique and repeat it

Gibbs branches out into introspective tracks too and a lil political shyt too....its not all just coke raps. I'd say he's more varied than Pusha. A song like "Insecurities", "Deeper" , "Situations"....show he not afraid to dig a lil deeper and even show vulnerability

Pusha just has a more expressive voice, while Freddie is more monotone . Skill wise they are equals, Gibbs has a slightly better pen

I gotta give Alfredo another chance today...I'd like it but it wasnt hitting me for some reason...I think like slightly busier production and this is way more background music
