When it comes to serving up quality no-frills rap releases, Freddie Gibbs has cornered the market, slowly but surely. The Gary, Ind. native and 2010 XXL Freshman has made a career out of sticking to the script and putting the focus on his acumen as a lyricist rather than the antics many rappers rely on today, making him one of the more respected and acclaimed spitters in the game. After going through the legal storm that kept him locked up in Europe on sexual assault charges for a chunk of 2016, Freddie Gibbs was exonerated and returned to the music scene in 2017 with his third studio album, You Only Live 2wice. He joined G Perico and Mozzy for "Colors" earlier this year, and now the rapper is back with his latest full-length offering, Freddie.

With cover art inspired by R&B legend Teddy Pendergrass' 1979 album Teddy, Freddie showcases Gibbs' more debonair side in between musings centered around the dope game, with winning results. Boasting production from Kenny Beats, Adrian Lau, Dupri, Enstrumentals, Freddie Kane, RichGains, Skinny, and Tony Seltzer, and guest appearances from 03 Greedo, Cassie Jo Craig and Gibbs' own daughter, Irie Jane Gibbs, on the outro track, Freddie continues the Midwestern rhyme animal's streak of producing high-powered material. While fans are still awaiting a new full-length project with MadlibFreddie stacks up alongside the best hip-hop releases of 2018.

After giving Gangsta Gibbs' latest long player a few spins, XXL picked out 20 of the best lyrics from Freddie that are sure to have listeners mashing rewind buttons.
