Gary, Indiana’s finest, Freddie Gibbs, has announced a full UK tour this summer including a show at London’s XOYO.
Hailing from a disheveled corner of the Midwest, Freddie’s music is a play-by-play of block politics. The video for “The Ghetto” illustrates his existence succinctly. Gibbs speaks on behalf of a silent minority, describing a crumbling metropolis on which socio-political concern has turned a blind eye.
May 2014 will see Freddie team up with The World's Freshest aka DJ Fresh for a new ten-track project, "The Tonite Show" set to drop on May 13th which will feature appearances from Raekwon, Sir Michael Rocks of The Cool Kids , Trae Tha Truth, G-Wiz, E-40 and more. 2014 will also see Freddie Gibbs release his second studio album Eastside Slim later this year.
Freddie will embark on a massive US tour with Tech Nine before coming to the UK and Europe this summer:
Sat 30th Aug Glasgow O2 ABC 2
