Description
Brand new collaboration between Freddie Gibbs and The
Alchemist, Alfredo 2 is the official follow-up to the duo's
acclaimed Alfredo release from 2020.
Praised for his technical proficiency as well as his
provocative lyrics, rapper Freddie Gibbs has won over fans
of gangsta rap as well as underground hip-hop. He’s equally
at home rhyming over booming breakbeats or trap beats,
and has collaborated with a diverse array of rappers and
producers including Young Thug, Jeezy, DJ Drama, and
Statik Selektah. He made a name for himself with a series of
self-released mixtapes throughout the 2000s and early
2010s. Following his first properly distributed release, the
Str8 Killa EP (2010), he began releasing proper studio
albums, including the well-received Madlib collaboration
Piñata (2014), Shadow of a Doubt (2015), and You Only Live
2wice (2017). After he issued the commercial mixtape
Freddie (2018), he reunited with Madlib for Bandana (2019),
and with the Alchemist cooked up Alfredo (2020). The latter
became his first LP to crack the Top 20 of the Billboard 200
and subsequently earned a Grammy Award nomination.
