Freddie Gibbs, With Chip Tha Ripper, Chuck Inglish, Bun B and Dan Auerbach, "Oil Money"
Here's a good song from Gary, Indiana rapper Freddie Gibbs-the last song on his first official release, the Str8 Killa EP. It's a posse cut, in the tradition of other last songs, and sort of a midwest power summit, featuring as it does Michigan's Chuck Inglish, Cleveland's Chip Tha Ripper, Texas's Bun B (well, southern midwest), Dan Auerbach, from the Akron, Ohioan rock duo the Black Keys singing the hook, and a very nice beat made by a Chicago producer who goes by the name of "Blended Babies"-which, yuck.
That's on some Alice Cooper shit (Detroit). This video, of a 1971 musical performance featuring mannequins, plastic dolls and a big long pirate sword is an important historical document. But it may not be entirely safe to watch at work.






Something should be said about this–like, it's good? I'm still undecided on Gibbs but it's nice to see Bun B out and about.
