Freddie Gibbs Says ‘Bandana’ Album Is Finished, Explains Why It’s Not Out Yet

Fans have been anticipating Freddie Gibbs and Madlib‘s Bandana album ever since it was first mentioned. In a new interview on the Rap Radar Podcast, the Indiana rapper has revealed that the follow-up to Piñata is in fact finished, but he’s not ready to release it just yet.

“I’m done with, you know, that Madlib album,” Gibbs said. “I just been sitting on that. I got money, I don’t gotta put it out yet. I could put it out when it’s time to put it out. I just wasn’t ready yet. I wanted to do something else first.”

The something else he’s talking about is his Freddie project, which dropped in June. He also went on to explain how the material on Bandana is part of the reason why he’s waiting for the right moment.

“I feel like [Bandana] is so serious, that I have to kind of like wait to put that out,” Gibbs continued. “I’m talking, like, recording something over a course of three, four years. There was a lot of things going on. The jail thing. There was a lot of things that I wanted to culminate in this album, so I wasn’t ready to put it out yet.”
