Man when is this style gonna come back, I miss ASAP Rocky’s long live ASAP album back in 2015 it was literally story telling and real rap that was back in 2015 when I was a sophomore or junior in high school. I would listen to the album on a morning with no skips, while walking to the bus and waiting, I miss them days.
@@Shedlyhikey man I relate so hard to what you're saying it was literally the same for me, 1 hour drive to the high school by bus (i live in france tho) while listening to gibbs and madlib damn I feel so nostalgic now. I still fuck with freddie's style tho check out his last album with alchemist if you didn't already
not necessarily. when the vision is the same, any number of producers can make good albums. cases in point: illmatic, mbdtf, gkmc. i can see where you're coming from though
Ericsson Johnsonson exactly. the best hip hop albums tend to be with multiple producers (but like 3-5 at most) who all have a similar and interesting vision. It's better than just one because you get variety AND cohesion. GKMC was trash though, lol.
VagrantWatcher213 ***** Kendrick has a shitty voice, his rhymes are weak and his beats are pretty damn boring (except for Art of Peer Pressure and Dont Kill My Vibe). So yeah, borderline trash for what dickriders have labelled a 'classic' album. I own actual classics (Illmatic, Infamous, etc) and I know an amazing hip hop project when I hear one. And Kendrick's ATliens ripoff aint it.
Connor Barr you a lame. gonna be bangin this when im 60. if you were a true gibbs fan youd know in this very song he mentions staying to his ways even when hes 40.
This song go hard but as for the most perfect rap song naw. Listen to Platinum Plus - Big L fr Big Daddy Kane and listen to how BDK flows on the beat so effortlessly. You can also listen to Dream Shatterer by Big Pun. He demolishes the instrumental
Honestly,I was shocked when I found out about the collab because no one expected Madlib to work with Freddie Gibbs, but I had to remember 3 thing: 1. Soulful/sampled production goes well with the right artist 2. Madlib DOESN'T work with bullshit artist 3. Freddie isn't a bullshit artist

Fuck bro I miss this shit I was a senior in high school and I remember running to my local record store to spend all my allowance on the first pressing of this classic. This song gives me chills STILL. Fucking classic album of this century
Freddie Gibbs was actually a hustler before becoming a rapper, the one thing I love about his music is he uses his heart and life to put everything in his lyrics all behind a very dark and beautiful beat
2014 has been kind so far... black Hystori Project, pinata, Cilvia Demo and several albums comming up like strangeulation, Mursday, Run the Jewels 2, L.O.R.D.S. and possiblity of new Jay Rock, Ab Soul, Jon connor albums...2014 should be a good year for music
I remember being so excited about it when it first came out, but I didn't think he'd get the well deserved recognition. A couple of months later every trap house I went to, every coke dealer's car, every small time kush chopper was playing Pinata non stop. Might not have never made it into the mainstream, but drug dealers loved this album.
Fucked up im just now listening to Freddie Gibbs after seeing his name on the billboards for years when I was younger. Dude is lyrically nice and his stories make sense. Buying all his material and his new project. Glad I stumbled across this great dude and we must protect him.
Pinata might've been the album that helped me start putting more attention to the 2010's generation of hip hop artists because I was making it my business to not listen to radio or newer mainstream artist on purpose I was listening to older artist with newer projects like styles p,fabolous,pusha t,lloyd banks etc but once I heard this I started paying real attention to Kendrick,j cole,nipsey,logic,big krit and gibbs after some time became my favorite artist
“Thugggin, never taking no for an answer. Might just take a loss but bitch I’d rather take my chances” . - how I been living since I heard this song. Timeless classic.
I used to be an average dude, school bookwormin through life with a passive disposition....that all changed when i seen this video, i dropped out of college, started cooking the coca and bought myself several guns and immortalized myself as a gangsta and a killa, thank you Freddie Gibbs and Madlib for liberating me.... . . . .(disclaimer nah not really but this the type of shit that make the homie want to follow through with the aboved mentioned lifestyle loll
Its really amazing how a song can bring back so many memories i used to listen to this all summer driving to work or to meet with my friends by the beach drinking,talking,laughing good times
+Renard Monaie Man I want that GTA V jacket hes wearing in the Mr. Green Clap video. Been playing that shit since someone in the neighborhood drug a PS1 into the boys and girls club when I was a kid.
I wonder what persons would have thought of this song had they heard it at the dawn of musical recording. To me it sounds almost Oriental. The bass is like a Persian rug. And the stringed instrument sounds like a bejewelled zither. And we sit on gold embroidered pillows, eat grapes and smoke opium while this plays on repeat.
