Pairing up with DJ Statik Selektah and a few mystery guests, Indiana native Freddie Gibbs is recording a mixtape within 24 hours starting tonight. It's called Lord Giveth, Lord Taketh Away, and the quick-turnaround tracks will stream live on XXL Magazine's website at 6 p.m. EST and will be available for download on iTunes on the 24th.
Initially Gibbs was slated to release a mixtape called Cold Day in Hell last week, but seeing as the press has been dead quiet on the matter, it's a welcome surprise that Statik offered his home studio in Brooklyn as a venue to help get new rhymes out. The DJ and producer has plenty of experience from recording within a day with rappers Saigon and Freeway, so it bodes well that the process will go off without a hitch. For an idea on what Gibbs and Statik sound like together, stream "Crushin' Feelins" above and snag it below.
