That project did exactly what it was supposed to which was expose Freddie to currensy’s fanbase which dwarfed Freddie’s at that time.

I gotta be honest with you: I don’t think that’s true.

For starters, Fred and Spitta had worked with each other multiple times. If Curren$y we’re to expose him to his fan base, it would’ve already happened by 2018.

Secondly, and most importantly, I don’t think this was an exercise in exposure on Gibbs’ behalf because their fanbases have a lot of overlap, which makes sense considering both:
  • Blew around the same time
  • Were blog darlings
  • Were Signed to majors but went out independently
  • We’re on Freshman covers
I would wager a good 90% of Curren$y fans are also Freddie Gibbs fans. Or at least were at the time.

And breh
:what:

This is make believe. Acclaim from WHO?! Currensy may have 100 mixtapes by now :dead: All of em ain’t gon be talked about (and again, from who. The source? Grammys? Complex? What outlets give ANY spitta project acclaim)

Fetti is great. But saying ANY currensy project is ‘slept on’ doesn’t even make sense

As far as the collab blueprint, read my post again. I didn’t say Fetti was his first. I said he didn’t have a collab album til after Spitta did it. Spitta teamed with Ski for pilot talk in 2010. Then alchemist for covert coup in 2011. East coast producers. Then AFTER those, next thing you know Freddie did his with Statik—-an east coast producer :patrice:after he had been with a southerner Jeezy the whole time :beli:

alchemist is west coast.

Spitta should just keep ignoring him.

Gibbs has a negative aura around him it seems.

I'm saying from Freddie's perspective. Album is up there with Gibbs' best work. Everybody knows Curren$y has like a million joints no one has the time to listen to.


My bad, I did read it wrong. Gibbs came out rapping over anything and everything though, so I wouldn't try to put him in a southern or midwest box before Covert Coup. The first songs that got him attention were over the beats to Flamboyant and 93 Til Infinity.

Curren$y definitely one of the influencers for the underground formula that everyone follows now, but it's not like he was looked at like a trendsetter at the time when others were also doing the same. There were a lot of rappers linking with single producers around then. Blu & Exile, DJ Fresh, Killer Mike & El P, Madvillainy, etc. That's just off the top of my head. Spitta is more known for Alchemist specifically switching to that formula, rather than rappers like Freddie. I can't give Spitta credit for that.

These are 1 offs and/or exclusive relationships. Currensy was the first (or most prominent) rapper doing a high volume of collabs with different producers and with other rappers. It wasn’t the norm at that time. If for no other reason, no other rapper was producing enough music to do that many collabs. So when they DID drop they focused on themselves. If they did a producer collab it was maybe once a year if that. Spitta was collabing with 3 producers and 2 rappers in 1 year :heh: He changed the game
Also,

1) key distinction from the DJ/producer tape vs the ‘produced by’ tape. Ie Statik Selektah had a dozen collabs, he was partly a draw himself. His presence is heavy. Same as Drama of course. Spitta was unique bc at first he did do the typical Drama amd don cannon tape, but with PT and covert coup theres no drops there’s no DJ the producer played the back.

2) he went to producers that weren’t even doing collabs tapes. Ski literally wasn’t producing heavy like that, Harry fraud maybe had one but he was not popular, and Alc had only done one with Prodigy who of course was family. Spitta with no ties to Alc getting that had nggas like :ohhh:

I fukks with both these nikkas' music but ain't no way in hell I'm finna sit up in this or any other thread defending some rap nikkas. I or nobody else knows these nikkas personally for all this defense (particularly in Curren$y's case). These nikkas don't know y'all.
Even without knowing the details brehs accepted that currency shouldn't promo projects he's on because he usually does it for himself is a wild position.

Edit: Nvm i remember with currency was ig with freddie was talking about how he would send freddie verses and would hear a finished song but when the final album came out freddie changed alot of his verses at the last minute. Kind of why that album sonded lopesided of freddies part but its foul if he did it that way.

Anyone denying Spitta changed the game is delusional.

I can’t believe there are people who actually believe anything Spitta did warrants this kind of bytchassness from Gibbs….like there aren’t a million other scenarios where Gibbs has done goofy shyt. Who is the commons denominator with all the fukkery that comes with dude? Lol

Exactly. Spitta out at the Essence Fest getting love from Gucci and Luda. Aint no way he worried about Gibbs and that silly shyt. Remember Gibbs was doing this same shyt with Jeezy for years until Jeezy had enough and set him straight on Therapy For My Soul. Now Jeezy one of Gibbs favorite rappers, he admits he was at fault in the situation and Jeezy wants nothing else to do with him.

To this day no one is keeping up with Spitta's output. He's in a league all his own when it comes to the amount of music he releases. Freddie definitely not trying to release that many tapes every year. Spitta broke the mold in that regard, but he didn't change the game.

MF DOOM wasn't doing one offs or exclusives, neither was Blu. DOOM has producer albums with Madlib and Dangermouse. Blu did producer albums with Exile, TaRaach and Mainframe. Talib Kweli was doing albums with Hi Tek and Madlib, Ed OG with Pete Rock, Bishop Lamont with Black Milk, etc, etc, etc. These were all years before Spitta took off doing the collab tapes.

Action Bronson, Freddie, Freeway with Jake One, Marco Polo, etc were also popping in the blogs doing producer collab tapes at the same time Spitta was. These aren't DJ tapes with drops all over them and shyt, they were just straight collabs. It was just the thing at that time. Curren$y didn't invent any new formula, he was just part of the wave of other artists doing the same shyt. Why would he get credit for starting some shyt everyone around him was already doing before him?

He was influential because of his popularity and the sheer output of quality material he was flooding at the time. Only in retrospect can you try to claim he popularized/founded/created the blueprint. He's obviously one of the bigger names of that era (and thus more influential), but if you tried to claim "Action Bronson is only releasing albums with Party Supplies and Alchemist because he is trying to steal Spitta's formula" in 2012, people would rightfully tell you how dumb you sound. Curren$y didn't give anyone the formula, cuz he was copying the formula himself.


I get you guys don't like Gibbs. I think his music is dope as fukk, but as a person I don't like the guy either. You got to stop making shyt up to try and prop up Spitta over him though. You can still admit that Gibbs has a point while thinking he needs to shut the fukk up. Liking a rapper doesn't mean you have to think they're infallible.
