FREDDIE GIBBS IN CONCERT:
Rising young rapper Freddie Gibbs is set for another big year, touring the country with Tech N9ne and putting the final touches on his second studio full-length. At his 2013 shows, Gibbs continued to display the same lyric al virtuosity and precision he's become known for, hyping up crowds with electric performances of fan-favorites like "BFK" and "No Bottles." With more than ten mixtapes under his belt, Gibbs has plenty of material to draw from for his 2014 tour dates, where he'll perform his biggest hits alongside deep cuts from his catalog.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Hailing from Gary, Indiana, Gibbs' demos caught the attention of Interscope execs in the mid-'00s, prompting a brief 2006 move to LA for the recording of his first album. The record was shelved after a management shakeup at the label the following year, but Gibbs was undeterred, continuing to release mixtapes in Atlanta before returning to Los Angeles to record more music. Self-released efforts like 2009's midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik and 2010’s Str8 Killa EP continued to bolster his reputation, earning him some high-profile supporters and paving the way for his 2013 full-length debut ESGN (Evil Seeds Grow Naturally). With sophomore album Eastside Slim due out in 2014, Gibbs is poised to capitalize on the heap of buzz he's generated with his decade-long run of rock-solid releases.
