In a short while, Freddie Gibbs will find out if his joint project with The Alchemist, Alfredo, takes home the Grammy for Best Rap Album. The rapper was excited to be nominated alongside other noteworthy acts, and as this is his first nomination, his fans are hoping that he upstages all others. To further prove that he’s deserving of accolades, Gibbs returned on Friday (February 5) with a new single “Gang Signs” featuring TDE’s ScHoolboy Q.
The pair reflect on their respective street pasts and how those experiences influenced their rap dream successes over a production that includes breezy keys and a laid-back bassline. Both rappers are highly respected in the industry for their lyricism, and Gibbs revealed that his inspiration for the single came from two legendary rap groups that emerged in the 1990s.
Freddie Gibbs – Gang Signs (ft. ScHoolboy Q) (prod. Pilgrim & FaxOnly)
[Intro: Freddie Gibbs]
Yeah, uh, a-nigga, yeah-yeah
I’ve been ridin’ in the ‘Dor with the dope shit
Ridin’ in the Volvo with the dope shit
Yeah-yeah (Yeah, yeah) Volvo with the dope shit (Yeah)
[Chorus: Freddie Gibbs]
Every day I need a dope flip
I was on some broke shit, a nigga was a po’ pimp, do or die
Nigga play me on some mo’ shit
A nigga might as well killed his motherfuckin’ self, that’s a suicide
Got a Draco, let it rip, nigga hopped up quick
So I had to double back, hit him two times
I ain’t new to this shit, bitch, I’m true to this shit
And every mornin’, I wake up and throw a gang sign
[Verse 1: Freddie Gibbs]
Yeah, I just wanna be legit
Fuck a bad Insta bitch, Bunny Rabbit off the rip
Bunny Rabbit wrist is lit, ‘Mighty-‘Mighty know it’s lit
All is well in this bitch
Hundred shells in this bitch, fifty shells in this bitch
Never tell in this bitch, fuck 12, suck a dick, fuck 12, suck a dick
Cutlass, all talk with the top off
Hit Diego, he gon’ hit me with the drop-off
Tryna floss in the town, get you knocked off
Take your chain and your rings and your watch off
Yeah, I just wanna be legit
Fuck a bad Insta bitch, Bunny Rabbit off the rip
Bunny Rabbit wrist is lit, Freddie Corleone, fuck 12, suck a dick
[Chorus: Freddie Gibbs]
Every day I need a dope flip
I was on some broke shit, a nigga was a po’ pimp, do or die
Nigga play me on some mo’ shit
A nigga might as well killed his motherfuckin’ self, that’s a suicide
Got a Draco, let it rip, nigga hopped up quick
So I had to double back, hit him two times
I ain’t new to this shit, bitch, I’m true to this shit
And every mornin’, I wake up and throw a gang sign
[Verse 2: ScHoolboy Q]
Uh, uh (Yeah, ayy)
What he take, sold that, ayy (Ayy)
What he rap, been that, hey (Ayy)
At the Grammys still strapped, ayy (Ayy)
I’m glowin’ ’cause a nigga straight
I’m happier than yesterday, we ’bout to beat the homie case
Tears on his daughter’s face, just tryna help with what I make, ayy
Is it just feelings or rap lines?
Can’t get wetty and baptized, no white man gon’ save mine
A belt won’t help my waistline, still gon’ die for my groove line
Goddamn right, it’s fuck one time
Way too Crip to go live, you take one, we take nine
We don’t stop at stop signs
Might get fifty and that’s fine, I just might pop, I keep tryin’
[Chorus: Freddie Gibbs]
Every day I need a dope flip
I was on some broke shit, a nigga was a po’ pimp, do or die
Nigga play me on some mo’ shit
A nigga might as well killed his motherfuckin’ self, that’s a suicide
Got a Draco, let it rip, nigga hopped up quick
So I had to double back, hit him two times
I ain’t new to this shit, bitch, I’m true to this shit
And every mornin’, I wake up and throw a gang sign
[Outro: Freddie Gibbs]
Yeah, yeah, nigga, yeah-yeah
I ain’t new to this shit, yeah
Every mornin’ I wake up and throw a gang sign
Yeah, uh, nigga, yeah-yeah
I ain’t new to this shit, yeah
Every mornin’ I wake up and throw a gang sign
