Freddie Gibbs hits the East Coast to sit down with DJ Envy and Power 105’s The Breakfast Club to speak on a multitude of topics including his new album, being an independent artist, the state of street Rap, and his current tour with Tech N9ne.

The Gary, Indiana product also reveals his deep respect and admiration for the independent Hip-Hop king, detailing N9ne’s exceptional ability to market his brand and music in ways most young rappers dream of (8:13). Do you think Strange could be Gibbs’ next label-home?

This highly informative piece is rounded out by The Club’s inquiry to Gibbs’ thoughts on the current nature of mainstream Gangsta Rap (1:05), his fall out with Young Jeezy (3:18), and the racial tension in his current hometown of L.A. surrounding Donald Sterling and the Los Angeles Clippers organization (9:14).

But that isn’t all that’s in store for Gangsta Gibbs today.

Falling off the upcoming project, Everything’s Awesome, Freddie unleashes some teeth knocking bars over late night electronic production from Vanderslice that seems scored straight out of an ’80s film. Scoop the tape May 6 that also features artists Evidence & AWAR, Maffew Ragazino, Merkules, Apathy, Celph Titled, and Twin Gambino.
