open.spotify.com/album/3znl1q...
Alfredo is a collaborative studio album by American rapper Freddie Gibbs and American hip hop producer The Alchemist. It was released on May 29, 2020, through Gibbs' own record label ESGN Records, as well as ALC Records and Empire Distribution.
The album is the first project between only Gibbs and The Alchemist, as it also marks the second time they have collaborated on a full-length project, following 2018's Fetti with fellow rapper Currensy. It features guest appearances from fellow rappers Rick Ross, Benny the Butcher, Tyler, the Creator, and Conway the Machine. It was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 2021 Grammy Awards.

[@YesNo-yl6ws]

@@aymanbenbahaCompletely agree

[@rusteyipjan6720]

Freddie’s confident delivery and at times dark lyrics on top of the high class and jazzy Alchemist production makes the picture in my head of Freddie being a mafia boss

[@TommyJeans]

whole album reminds me of gta vice city

[@alukyn]

@@TommyJeans good comparisson. I can see that

[@basia2330]

This project is phenomenal. Its transitions are so seamless. Your dad’ll love Alchemist. And he will soon realize that Alc is the goat producer. I feel like this project is also a great entry into this area of rap, so soon his ears’ll be prepared to listen to people like Westside Gunn and Boldy James

[@Stardropreacts]

Boldy James and Nicholas cage project would be such a satisfying reaction video

[@hussein3274]

My favorite thing about Alfredo is that it is a product of 2020. The references to The Last Dance, Tiger King, the George Floyd protests, the lock down. It was my summer anthem and is still heavily in my rotation

[@polygon3538]

facts, everytime i hear the references throughout the album it brings me back to the pandemic. especially the intro track

[@avxntvra]

Rick Ross mentioning Kobe & Gigi too

[@randomaccount0073]

I think the beauty of this channel is that it makes you appreciate again all the little things you forget about songs after becoming desensitized overtime. And also discover new things to appreciate too.

[@baL88537]

Yeah thats why i like it

[@psilopsychic]

The soft classy production of Pray for Paris with the heavy hitting and dark lyrics are perfect, came out the same year but a bit before too. Definitely worth listening to. Tyler is also featured on ‘327’ on it and he credits Westside Gunn for making him want to rap again. Benny and Conway from this album are on it a bunch too. You guys will love it

[@fl_wer]

Agreed. Would love to hear Kevin listen to Pray For Paris or just more Griselda in general. God Don't Make Mistakes by Conway would be interesting aswell as it's a deeper record

[@maxs2480]

not to mention Freddie is on it too 💯

[@iTzNaytz]

yeahh pray for paris!!! lockdown vibes

[@mackstacks8913]

Shouts to the Alchemist man… man the work he did on this is spectacular. Nobody blends the end of a song into a new song as well as he does. Freddie was rapping out of his mind too. Great album. Going to spin it again, its been a while.

[@rehmans3656]

That transition to Frank Lucas 🥶

[@shrimpix516]

Alchemist transitions are crazy. On "The Alchemist Sandwich" the transition from The Hopeless Romantic to Massacre is soooo crazy. Sometimes I think about Massacre but hae to let both of the songs play, cause it's just so damn good

[@JS-ym1tp]

Something To Rap is one of my favorite songs ever. Freddie, Tyler, and Alchemist is a crazy combo

[@idontgetthejoke7974]

You both are spot on about freddie dude. His ability to float over top a backing track and finding unique pockets is crazy. There's like 5 flow switches in the first MINUTE of Frank Lucas. Unreal

[@tonydigital808]

Freddie has been consistently putting out banger after banger records for some years now. He is definitely ramping up to be one of those artists that can be in the discussions about being the best rapper

[@barry4649]

I’ve been saying this for a while but he’s been underground his whole career so he’ll never be top 10 to most people, definitely top 15 for me already

[@caseyrogers935]

Snares are absolutely crucial!! People gotta understand lol Don’t give up on the snares Kevin!

[@kevinfromttt]

Thanks Casey ❤

[@itzsobrrrgames2852]

I think the reason that Gibbs works so well with guys like Al and Madlib is that he has a really soulful voice and delivery.

[@guap8391]

[@dies3156]

I like to think that Tyler just head the Alchemist beat for Something to Rap About in lockdown and just got inspiration for his next era.

[@firvlays]

Alchemist beats are like going to a bigger/foreign store of a franchise u know where u find products u've never seen, everything is interesting and different to what u know but most times better

[@holyskadoodle]

Ive actually never listened to this one all the way through, looks like this is me and your dads first reaction

This was one of the few albums that powered me through Quarantine. Such an amazing project from front to back. I hope Gibbs and Alchemist collab for a future project again because their chemistry is superb

[@swiftsword4221]

Never would have tried this album out and that's what I love about this channel, hearing people, especially your dad as a musician, being excited about music. It makes me so much more open to trying it myself without giving up too early. I would recommend Run The Jewels 3 as an album for you guys to try out, it's what got my dad and I into hip hop and I think it's a really interesting and well crafted album. Much love for what you guys do

[@jza641]

Still in my rotation heavy, Top 3 album of the decade so far for me. Alchemist beats and Freddie flow is a match made in Heaven

[@geeteejae]

Such a good album, the Alchemist is a legend with the production and Freddie has the insane ability to flow over anything. Definately a summer album too imo.

[@keegansmith6965]

It's crazy how personal experience affects your relationship with music. I'm from New Zealand which means this dropped heading into winter, so to me this album gives me very strong cold, dark wintery vibes, as I used to listen to this heavily on my way to work early in the morning that June-July. It's kinda weird for me to hear Connor say this sounds summery! That's why I love music though! Something to Rap About is probably the only song from this record to give me summer vibes.
