The track is titled <em>How We Do<\/em> and apparently it&#8217;s a freestyle. I&#8217;m not sure but I think this video was recorded after he released the mixtape in 2009. I heard the track (nevermind the title) which played automatically on YT after this video, also from <strong>Freddie<\/strong>, and it has that new, awful and fakin&#8217; the funk sh*tty sound with no soul whatsoever &#8217;cause it&#8217;s made with too much $$$ on the mind and therefore no quality can be present since obviously the listeners criteria fell way way down in this past few years, like in the most of today&#8217;s music, no matter the genre. <\/p>\n<p>There has always been bad music, meaning there were artists that didn&#8217;t had &#8220;that something&#8221;, made a lousy job when playin&#8217; certain music genre, and on account of that, those folks couldn&#8217;t push their mateiral anywhere. Music that was toppin&#8217; charts back in the day was really good, &#8217;cause &#8220;bad music&#8221; more precisely untalented individuals simply could not compete. Today&#8217;s music toppin&#8217; the charts? As <strong>Carlos Santana<\/strong> would say on today\u2019s musical landscape: &#8220;People have gotten synthetic these days. It&#8217;s like trading your soul for plastic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And another great quote from him I read some time ago, to connect and end the post with: &#8220;The &#8217;60s were a leap in human consciousness. <strong>Mahatma Gandhi, Malcolm X, Martin Luther King, Che Guevara<\/strong>, they led a revolution of conscience. <strong>The Beatles, The Doors, Jimi Hendrix<\/strong> created revolution and evolution themes. The music was like Dal\u00ed, with many colors and revolutionary ways. The youth of today must go there to find themselves.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This is where it&#8217;s at.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"97826\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/video-dig-of-the-day-freddie-gibbs-how-we-do-2009\/freddie-g\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?fit=640%2C476&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"640,476\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"freddie g\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?fit=540%2C402&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?fit=640%2C476&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?fit=640%2C402&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"freddie g\" width=\"640\" height=\"402\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-97826\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?resize=540%2C402&amp;ssl=1 540w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/freddie-g.jpg?w=640&amp;ssl=1 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we have a dynamite video in a form of a session, which features the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97824","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-videos"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pG6fW-prO","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97824","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=97824"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/97824\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=97824"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=97824"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blackouthiphop.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=97824"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
