Freddie Gibbs - The Last Rabbit

On April 1, 2026, Freddie Gibbs brings his show The Last Rabbit to Neue Welt in Berlin. The rapper from Gary, Indiana, stands for uncompromising storytelling that sits between gangsta rap and contemporary hip‑hop: detailed street narratives, sober self‑reflection, and a flow that shifts between intensity and calm. Since his early mixtapes he has positioned himself independently—briefly with major labels, then steering his own course with ESGN. He demonstrated this approach on full-length projects such as ESGN, Shadow of a Doubt and You Only Live 2wice.

His sound is especially distinctive in collaborations: with Madlib on Piñata and Bandana he creates sample-soaked, soulful soundscapes, while The Alchemist on Fetti (with Curren$y) and Alfredo favors more stripped-down, edgy loops. In between, the 2018 album Freddie makes pointed statements, before $oul $old $eparately (2022) takes the solo thread further. Live, Freddie Gibbs masterfully pulls this repertoire together: trap-driven surges, slower tempos, roughness and precision in the lyrics—no frills, with a clear sense of dramaturgy. The Last Rabbit promises no museum piece, but a present-day capture of his catalogue: dense, direct and to the point.
