Freddie Gibbs x The Alchemist - Alfredo 2 (JULY 25th) First Single "1995" Out Now

[aceboon]

If I'm Spitta I need a convo with Alchemist...

 

[L $ C]

few thoughts so far...

1 alch sounding great, the drumless beats were getting old. this is good

2. im sorry but its too much talk about whores and dumb shyt, makes it hard to consistantly listen to

3 albums good

S

Swap 2 and 1 and that’s my list. Unfortunately we may not get Montana for a while. It’s tied up in court, and Gibbs has said his next album is all produced by Kaytranada. Add the fact that he never drops more than one project per calendar year, and I feel like we’re looking at Montana 2027 at the earliest. But I hope I’m wrong.

I don't see how Montana is tied to the lawsuit

 

[Dillah810]

Just started listening to this album and I'm fukking with Ensalada HEAVY

 

[head shots101]

This is fire …. Way better than that Benny shyt

 

[BlackMajik]

Gold Feet

 

[Figaro]

"Never catchin' feelings, these bytches might suck a hundred dikks..."

This is why you can't take Freddie Gibbs serious as a human being

But back to the album Enslada, Empanadas, I Still Love H.E.R & A Thousand Mountains are vintage material.

 

[H. Selassie]

Kendrick, Joey Badass, Clipse, and Gibbs have restored the feeling over the last several months

Quality projects…emphasis on bars…throwing shots at other rappers

I’m feeling like it’s 05-06 and I’m posting on Allhiphop.com forum again about classic albums, G-Unit beefs, and Smack DVD battles

You think the Earl x Alc has better beats than this?

Not in and of itself I just feel like Earl fits better over Alc production. Imo, Freddie can clash with ALC beats

 

[areohbee824]

Gold Feet ridiculous man, beat is one of my fav and JID killed that

 

[aceboon]

been running it all morning and it's hitting more than Alfredo 1 did off the first initial listens.

 

[doublecheese]

Ok Fred this shyt is fire

 

[FunkDoc1112]

That's definitely a Jun Fakamachi sample on Gas Station Sushi

 

[TheDarceKnight]

Im on the fence about putting this over the first Alfredo. This one is more cohesive and smooth but the first one although disjointed was much harder. Loving gold feet right now, I think him and JID are neck and neck on that. Ensalada is amazing, need to hear more Anderson and Al. I gotta give this more spins, think this one is a grower, it don’t hit me immediately like the first one.

It really surprises me that people think the first one was much harder. Like, besides Frank Lucas, Baby shyt, and God's Perfect, there's very little shyt I think sounds "hard." Scottie Beam, Look At Me, Babies & Fools, and Something to Rap about are all lighter sounding drumless loops. 1985 sounds shiny and vibrant. Skinny Suge sounds sad. All Glass I guess is pretty hard too.

I don't see how Montana is tied to the lawsuit

Two albums are tied up in the lawsuit. Montana and the Mac Miller x Madlib album. Madlib's former manager is holding them hostage.

Most of the articles talk about the Mac Miller album, but Montana is definitely tied up in it as well. Madlib wants to put it out away from Sony, but Egon says it is obligated to release on Sony.

"Egon says Madlib’s new label is interfering with music projects that legally belong to the old company, including the release of a years-old recording of the late Miller that has long been rumored to be in the works. (Miller’s estate is not involved in the dispute nor accused of any wrongdoing.) He also says Madlib is refusing to complete an album for Freddie Gibbs that they are contractually obligated to deliver to Sony Music."

The producer is currently in a legal battle against former manager Eothen "Egon" Alapatt.
