Freddie Gibbs sat down for an interview with Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson for their ‘All The Smoke’ and spoke candidly about his father having to face off against Michael Jackson in talent shows.
Gibbs said, “Yeah, Michael Jackson used to beat my daddy a** in the talent shows. My dad sing, my dad was in The Chi-Lites, matter of fact. Him and Mike the same age, so they was always bumping heads in the talent shows, and Mike would fuck that n***a up. I’m like, ‘Fuck you thought, n***a?’” The rapper noted that his dad had to face MJ at one point with the entire Jackson 5 behind him.
The rapper continued, “And I’m like, you up there solo. He got Tito, Jermaine… They in step, they got moves, they got Joe, you know what I’m sayin’? They had Joe pushin’ them n***as. You ain’t had nobody, you just had yo mama telling you ‘Yes my baby!’ Mike had a team, n***a! He couldn’t f**k with Mike.” Gibbs said, “I love you Dad, but you know you can’t f**k with Mike. Mike was f**kin’ you up your whole life. We be watching Michael Jackson, my dad like, ‘Turn that muthaf**kin s**t off.’ He be listening to it on the low though. That n***a love Mike.” Watch above.
