Description

Vinyl Pressing. 2014 album from the rapper and producer. Freddie Gibbs is the product of violent, drug-laden streets but unlike most rappers with similar resumes, he brings the block to the booth without inhibition or an exaggerated rap persona. PINATA, a 17 track collaboration with producer Madlib, is the best distillation yet of his transparent approach to making music, combining an at times stark honesty with electrifying talent as a lyricist and performer. PINATA is 'a gangster Blaxploitation film on wax,' says Gibbs, who came up on the streets of Gary, Indiana, the disregarded city previously best known for producing Michael Jackson. Here he is joined by Mac Miller, Earl Sweatshirt, Raekwon, Scarface, Domo Genesis, Ab-Soul and a host of others in setting his soliloquies of the streets alongside film snippets and dusted Funk, Soul and Progressive musical tapestries.

    • Strong contender for Rap album of the year
Ever since Madvillainy Madlib has had my attention as a producer. His sound is so in your face with its samples and bass-heavy drums. I can only describe it as beautiful hip-hop. His production on Pinata is no different. Every song has a unique sound to it yet the album flows seamlessly. You'll hear a wide range of sounds, tempos, and sample variations with this album which is a good thing. As far as production, this album has got to be my favorite since Kanye's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. It's really that good. I feel Freddie Gibbs is underrated as far as MCs go. He has been putting put quality underground gangsta rap music for years now but has still remained under the radar for the most part. Pinata is the strongest he has been lyrically on any project. He keeps topics diverse and not solely relating to gangster qualities (although there is still plenty of that intact). His storytelling is above par. His flow can get repetitive at times but infectious nevertheless. Madlib and Freddie Gibbs proved themselves to be a partnership capable of greatness. This is a fantastic album with amazing production AND MCing. This might be an album that stays in constant rotation for a long time. ... show more

    • Consistant Dopeness Throughout.
"Piñata" is the collaborative album from emcee FREDDIE GIBBS and producer MADLIB. There's a lot to like about this album, but first and foremost is the consistency. Although it starts a little rough (I think "Scarface" is one of the weakest tracks on the album), it quickly gets into (and stays at) a level of quality that I've come to expect from "GANGSTA" GIBBS and MADLIB. For anyone that's familiar with the body of work that GIBBS released while signed to YOUNG JEEZY's C.T.E. imprint: this album is the polar opposite. GIBBS' flow and content hasn't changed (he's still spittin' grimey tales of street life), but what's different is the guest features and the lush sonic soundscapes that he's rhyming over. This album is more akin to the collaborative album he did with producer STATIK SELEKTAH. The only issue I have with this album is that they didn't include all the tracks that GIBBS and MADLIB have done together over the last couple of years. Prior to this album, the two had released a series of limited edition EPs; two of the tracks found on these EPs that I wish were on "Piñata" are "Deep" and "Terrorist." ... show more

    • Gibbs keeps on keeping it real, Madlib continues to ship hot tracks
I consider this a 5-star album for all sorts of reasons. Most importantly, I can listen to this entire album without skipping a single track. Each and every track is good in its own way, and that's hard to find in a lot of hip-hop albums these days. But Gibbs & Madlib don't drop any filler tracks, boring beats, or lame verses here- it's all quality through and through. Madlib's production is on point as usual, using interesting samples and smooth transitions. Gibbs is consistent on every track, and his style, reminiscent of old-school gangsta rap, is refreshing to say the least. The pair aren't working alone, either, because there's a whole lot of guests in this party. The features range from Danny Brown (who did a great collab with Freddie on "The Return" off Danny's album "Old"), to Odd Future members Domo and Earl (I was surprised Gibbs had these guys, it's really cool). Mad respect to everybody who was involved with creating this music, you guys really did a number here. If you are even remotely interested in hip-hop, buy this album. It's definitely one of my favorites in recent memory, and surely an album I will continue playing for quite some time. ... show more

    • gangsta gibbs and Madlib?!?
I couldn't believe it when i saw that this thing was actually out. I was blown away by some of the tracks that were already on youtube. Once i realized i had played Thuggin about 10 times in 2 days i thought that this could end up being a classic. gibbs flows with confidence on every track on here. Even when a beat has you almost drifting into space (i mean this in a great way), Gibbs is able to catch your ear because of his delivery and aggressiveness. Although he does talk about a few mainstream rappers on this cd, he does it in a way that makes every bar sound like a real warning. He doesn't have any lines about how he'll kill these rappers. He just explains to them that he knows just how fraudulent some of them are. Gibbs clearly is portraying himself as the rapper who isn't like all of the others because of his legitimate street credibility. Rappers before him have used the same tactic, but Gibbs may have established himself as of the king of it on this cd. Madlib is incredible on this thing. Some of the tracks manage to be both beautiful and hard at the same time. Madlib gives Gibbs enough high tempo moments to slash through, but he also slows it down at times so that Gibbs can just speak his mind in a more conversational tone. The production here demands the best Gibbs has to offers. Madlib did not have much of a theme to work with here. Some of the beats are grimy to go with unapologetic rhymes about drugs and violence. Other beats are interesting enough to carry rhymes about how people from more privileged backgrounds have the same vices as people from the hood. Madlib here gives us aggression, soulfulness, and seriousness, but he also remembered to give us playfulness, which is key for this album (Gibbs can sometimes weigh you down with brutal and violent honesty). The album also has a relaxing Cali song for open car window weather. My only gripe with the production is that Madlib injects a few classic samples (i believe to bring a nostalgic or classic feel to the project), but the obviousness doesn't agree with me or seem necessary. GIbbs already has a flow that can bring that quality, which it already does on a couple of beats on this album. I thought that this project was never coming out for some reason, but i'm glad it did.Both artists pulled their own weight on this album and it doesn't sound like either had to make sacrifices to their craft. The rhymes and beats blend extremely well throughout. ... show more
