Lil Bibby delivered a big surprise for the fans by releasing a new mixtape titled Big Buckz. The project seemingly comes out of nowhere as the Chicago rapper has been prepping his long awaited FC3 the Epilogue album which is due out on Sept. 30.

Big Buckz is comprised of eight tracks with a lone guest appearance by Lil Durk. The project features some of his recent songs of note including "John Snow" and the banger "Never Go Against the Family" produced by Metro Boomin and 808 Mafia's Southside.

Lil Bibby's latest mixtape is his first release since Free Crack 3 which dropped back in November 2015. Big Buckz is also the first project the former XXL Freshman has put out that is not part of the Free Crack series.

This mixtape is a welcomed return to music after Lil Bibby found himself in the middle of a wild brawl just two weeks ago. The fight occurred while Bibby and longtime collaborator G Herbo were performing at show in New Haven, Conn. No solid details about what caused the altercation emerged, but it was reported that someone allegedly tried to snatch Bibby’s chain.

With that madness in the past, Lil Bibby's focus is back on his career. Fans can pre-order FC3 the Epilogue right now on iTunes while streaming Big Buckz below. The mixtape can also be downloaded for free via this link.
