Sorry Chicago haters. Anyone hoping the city’s stranglehold on the game would relax anytime soon is gonna have to wait, cause the next generation of Windy City emcees is on the come up, continuing with fast-risers Freddie Gibbs and Mikkey Halsted’s new track On My Own. (Ok, so Gibbs is from Gary, Indiana, but that’s Chicago-adjacent, right?)  Anyway, I don’t want to get too caught up in regional labels when we’ve got a track this banging on the table. I don’t say this often, but Maja 7th’s production on On My Own is so stellar I would bump the instrumental alone, so when we add in a drastically precise flow from Gibbs (who I continue to maintain sounds like a less-abstract Big Boi) and a heavy hitter guest verse from Chi-native Halsted, the result is nothing less than the definition of dopeness. On My Own is part of…wait for it…popular Chicago blog FakeShoreDrive’s FSD.com & Maja 7th Present: The Breakout mixtape, produced entirely by 7th and set to blow out eardrums on March 2. Oh, and keep an ear out for DJ Z’s exclusive interview with Freddie Gibbs, dropping this Tuesday.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on March 1, 2010

Kind of a Dipset type of beat, but Gibbs rocked this pretty hard. Had the energy on here and the beat hit right. Bumpin!

Nathan is right! This is the type of record that you can bump without any artist rapping over it. However, I'd take Gibbs and Halsted any day of the week.

@Dj Freestyle - Gibbs WAS signed to a major (Interscope), but is operating indie right now. Listen to our interview on Tuesday for more insightful info!

Sometimes a record is so dope you just have to swear, so in that spirit, this sh*t is the motherf**king king. If you're listening to this on crappy computer speakers you're doing yourself a disservice. Put this on your stereo, turn up the volume, and soak in one of the better cuts we've heard in a minute. Every time I hear Gibbs he impresses me just a little bit more.

CLASSIC! Love that Chicagoland sound here-Gibbs & Halsted are both vets in this-we REALLY need to hear Maja 7th beats more often too!

Freddie Gibbs is one of the illest out right now. I also applaud him for staying independent.

The labels aren't too cool right now.

I don't like the loop effect, it ruins the track for me.
