Freddie Gibbs at Governors Ball Music Festival 2013

Freddie Gibbs at Governors Ball 2013

Starting ten minutes late, unusual for a festival set, considering that Axl managed to get on stage 10 minutes early, Freddie Gibbs finally stormed on stage, to a packed Skyy Vodka Tent shouting “Mother Fuck the police!” Diving right into it, the Gary, Indiana rapper demonstrated his incredible skill by rapping more than a third of all his tracks without the beat, all acapella. Never missing a beat (since it was often not even there) Gibbs showed New York what it truly means to keep it real. He even blasted Young Jeezy saying “anything he tells you, it’s going to be fake.”  After watching Gibbs perform, the take away for me is: shirts are for chumps, and that he  really wants to “fuck the police.”
