Freddie Gibbs Albums Ranked Worst to Best

[@haroldgonzalez2681]

I’d switch it to: 1. Piñata 2. Alfredo 3. Bandana All 3 albums are fire and have aged very well

[@CulturalistTheory]

Can’t be mad at that 🔥

[@xsquisit34]

I served as collaborator, producer and engineer for Gibbs from MidwestBoxFrame all the way up to Bandana. I recorded some of his best verses. Gibbs has been one of the best rappers for the last 15 years…💯💯💯

[@CulturalistTheory]

Super dope. Respect bro

[@xsquisit34]

@@CulturalistTheory I’m a fan of your work Bro. Felt really good to see you guys did this ranking of Gibbs albums. Love and respect…🙏🏽💯

Can’t believe that Freddie is 41 and still putting out consistently great albums

[@realzhawkins9084]

😂 age has nothing to do with it

[@badmeetsevil6163]

Err 41 isn’t even close to being old for a rapper these days

[@17thpyoungin]

@@badmeetsevil6163 yeah it is. Rappers in their 30s are considered old

[@badmeetsevil6163]

@@17thpyoungin except that 99% of good rappers these days are above 30? Even rappers like JID, Tyler, Travis Scott and 21 Savage are all in their 30s. Furthermore, all the vets like Nas, Jay, Eminem, Black Thought, Killer Mike etc. are in their late 40s to 50s.

[@diegoaladdin]

Even crazier id Nas

[@fettywapsmissingeye]

Piñata is easily 1 for me. Honestly some of the greatest production I’ve ever heard. Illmatic, 93 til, and piñata for the 🐐 productions on rap albums

[@deviant4life25]

Quality Content as Always…. Deviant gotta ask for Too $hort and E-40 lists, it’s tradition

[@CulturalistTheory]

Lol. Your patience is appreciated

[@lancevalencia6852]

Man I'm so glad you mentioned the tapes! Cold Day in Hell and BFK go so hard! Definitely my favorite works from him.

[@CulturalistTheory]

Both 🔥🔥🔥

[@Xdbgaming707]

Yall already know I was bout to comment on this list!

[@nicolesherman8974]

Another suggestion: y’all should rank the Soulquarians projects 🔥 👀

[@shawnt1170]

Need that Lupe ranking

[@CulturalistTheory]

Got that otw! Soon 😬

[@koleon06]

Freddie does have an amazing catalogue, Bandana and Piñata are interchangeable for top spot

[@CulturalistTheory]

Facts!

[@matthalsey7808]

Piñata is better

[@VinnieDangerous]

Bandana & Piñata blew my mind the first time I heard them. Been a fan since

[@donb.loneleo770]

Freddie has a really good catalogue imo, he's always consistent from what I've heard. Ik I'd have a tough time ranking his projects if we included his mixtapes. BFK is probably my fav mixtape but I gotta revisit Cold Day In Hell and others to be sure. Great vid as always 🙌

[@antoniolugo4727]

You should do Scarface ranked

[@CulturalistTheory]

Otw

[@JustCraigsOpinion]

Good one I didnt know i needed. thanks!

Respect!

[@stoopconvo2924]

[@FideliCast]

Not mad at this list 💪🏻

[@The918dad]

Bandana and Piñata were my favorites although it’s hard for me to not like anything from my favorite rapper.

[@LELABTV]

Good choice💯 I would definitely go with Alfredo Bandana Pinata 💫

[@luann_araujo]

You need to do a Kelis' video of Ranked Worst to Best. I love her and my favourite albums of hers are: 6° Food 5° Wanderland 4° Kaleidoscope 3° Kelis Was Here 2° Flesh Tones 1° Tasty

[@CulturalistTheory]

Good suggestion. Adding it to the list

[@SarBChild]

Not mad at this list. Top 3 is top 3, indeed!

[@CulturalistTheory]

Respect!

[@Papadoc1981]

Piñata is mos def my #1. Cold Day In Hell was the first time I heard Gibbs music. Only reason I even listened to it was because I was cleaning and needed some background music. Saw the cover of that and pushed play. Been following Gibbs music ever since.

[@CulturalistTheory]

Lol Dope story. Preciate you tappin in

[@colepitt2184]

Niggas had “Piñata” at number 3?!?! All of the L’z😅🙆🏽‍♂️. It’s his best work.

[@dinelllewis1429]

Nah Bandana his best work

[@robertford5447]

Yes gibbs is in my 10 all time

[@oneemperial]

Three video ideas: who were the most UNDERRATED emcees from the 90s, 2000s, 2010s Side ideas: who are the most underrated now, and who are the most underrated EVER! I would love to see how you all come up with that list. It is already controversial, and you haven’t done it yet! Lol Best punchline rappers would be good, too

[@CulturalistTheory]

Oohhh fire suggestions! Def adding that to the list!

[@devzeppalin]

Since you asked about “Fetti”, it’s cool but I wouldn’t rank it that high. Freddie & Spitta have great chemistry with Alchemist but not always with each other. I believe that’s partly why Freddie feels so strongly about never doing another with Spitta.

[@CulturalistTheory]

True. Kinda let down by the project, not that it was bad. Just had higher expectations

[@devzeppalin]

@@CulturalistTheory Exactly!

[@maknificentthegreat]

God is great is my favorite all time Gibbs song!

[@TheRealLeonardWashington]

Crazy thing is the top 3 albums all have an argument for number 1. Gibbs has a very solid catalog. Not mad at this ranking at all

[@debiasflowers3067]

Bfk has some jams on that thing . favorite album from gibbs is alfredo . no skip track on that album frfr

[@CulturalistTheory]

Can't go wrong with that Alfredo. 🔥

1. Pinata 2. Bandana 3. Alfredo 4. $$$ 5. Shadow of a Doubt 6. YOL2 7. Freddie 8. Cold Day in Hell

[@Goodiedudeyaknow]

Freddie Gibbs is my favorite rapper in the past 10 years. I don’t care for his personal action m, but as a artist dude is top tier.

[@dirtybirdxx]

Cold Day In Hell is one of the best mixtapes ever brah!!! Niggas missing out on a dope ass project. Its his second best project to me

[@CulturalistTheory]

Tape super slept on!

[@125henni]

Crazy. For me Alfredo is 1 and Bandana is 2. But ya they could go back and forth. Both are great

[@jajlertil]

SSS maybe aint as glued together as piñata or Bandana but song for song it’s his best album to me

[@CulturalistTheory]

Respect that

[@enricoromano6745]

Can you rate Anderson paak's albums?

[@CulturalistTheory]

Paak only has 4 albums ☹ We only rank catalogs of 5 or more! Hopefully he drops something soon and we can make it happen!

[@ThisIsTrent]

Just my thoughts, but that Freddie album is underrated! He got into his full bag there! I want to hear him on a Dr. Dre beat!

[@oneemperial]

You all got this one right! I think SSS was underrated, though. If he wasn’t on so much clown ish, it probably would have been one of the best albums of the year

[@CulturalistTheory]

That's fair. The antics distract from the music!

[@reylopez8433]

I like Gibbs as an artist but he needs to log off and delete his social media accounts. As for the episode, fire as usual. The top 3 is undeniable and pretty equal for me personally. Pinata was one of my favorite albums in the 2010's. Its definitely more Madlib than Gibbs, but it really worked. Bandana on the other hand, Gibbs was more confident and in his pocket. Alfredo was a refreshing change of pace. They took what they did on FETTI and made something epic.

[@aaronconner6562]

I definitely agree with you on that he needs to stay off the internet and focus on this music

[@cloficc7234]

Are you seriously starting off the list with ESGN??? That was his dopest album along with the BFK Mixtape!!! Edit: And follow up with Shadow of a doubt, which should be like 3rd on the list smh Trash list

[@Smoothjazzsundays]

If piñata isn’t number 1 than this list is wrong

[@Xdbgaming707]

Yall almost had it right! But fumbled! Piñata Is #1!

[@CulturalistTheory]

😩

[@bigzizzo]

I got Piñata as number one. Those top 3 are all great albums. My favorite Gibbs mixtape is between The Miseducation of Freddie or Midwestgangsterbox…

Here’s my definitive ranking of Freddie Gibbs projects from worst to best: Worst: • Full Metal Jackit (Vol. 2) = [5.8/10] “Low-quality sound and generic premise.” •This Is My Hustle = [6/10] “Bland and very repetitive; Boring production.” • Full Metal Jackit (Vol. 1) = [6.1/10] “Freddie just raps over iconic beats and rehashes his own take of them; Crackalackin’ is easily this man’s worst song!” Decent: • ESGN (Evil Seeds Grow Naturally) = [6.5/10] “Repetitive and lack of storytelling; Super trap production is great!” • The Tonite Show (w/ The World’s Freshest) = [6.7/10] “Amazing production and variety, but isn't breaking any boundaries for Freddie’s part; P**** Got Slap is another contender for his worst songs.” • Live From Gary, Indiana (Part 2) = [7/10] “Not pushing any boundaries, but has some great sound.” • Midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik = [7/10] “Feels like this could be his first studio debut album.” • Lord Giveth, Lord Taketh Away (w/ Statik Selektah) = [7.1/10] “The production is great as it gives off an old school vibe; Not better than his other work with Statik Selektah.” Good: • The Miseducation of Freddie Gibbs = [7.4/10] “Another great project showing his versatility with multiple freestyles and original songs.” • Live From Gary, Indiana = [7.5/10] “Best of early Freddie!” • You Only Live 2wice = [7.6/10] “A great outing from Freddie, but it feels more like an EP than an LP.” • $oul $old $separately = [7.6/10] “The story and fiction behind the project are great; Good quality sound will Freddie attempts modern trap and sounds great.” Great: • Freddie (w/ “Kenneth” Beats) = [8/10] “Love the dark and trappy 808s mixed in with soulful samples and synths.” • Baby Face Killa = [8/10] “This is a classic, but loses value due to it sounding stuck in its time; The Diet and Every City were removed from the No DJ version (The version on streaming services).” • Cold Day In Hell = [8.5/10] “Unlike Baby Face Killa with its sound being stuck in its time, the project has timeless production, making it feel more comfortable than that project.” • Shadow of a Doubt = [8.7/10] “The dark and gloomy atmosphere mixed with melodic and hard-hitting production and vocals is perfect; Careless was replaced with Pronto in the re-release due to sample clearance issues.” Amazing (Classics): • Str8 Killa No Filla = [9.1/10] “Easily his best mixtape with the highest amount of versatility and replayability out of all of his mixtapes.” • Bandana (w/ Madlib) = [9.4/10] “Freddie and Madlib are incredible on this project with amazing production from Madlib and some of the best songwriting from Freddie.” • Alfredo (w/ The Alchemist) = [9.6/10] “Just like Bandana, but a lot more fluid with some of my favorite tracks coming from Freddie; Amazing feature list.” • Pinãta (w/ Madlib) = [10/10] “A Modern timeless rap classic, with some of Freddie and Madlib’s best work to offer.” And that's pretty much it (until Montana releases because it's been officially confirmed).

I started as a fan of Gibbs early on but he lost me later on. Gibbs is a seriously dope rapper but not the best artist imo. He can rap his ass off but I can't say he keeps my attention for long.
