Freddie Gibbs + Madlib feat. Yasiin Bey and Black Thought: Education
From Freddie Gibbs and Madlib’s collaborative album, Bandana, “Education” is a star-studded track that harkens back to the golden era of hip-hop. Gibbs, Yasiin Bey (formerly Mos Def) and Black Thought (frontman of The Roots) lend verses, with Bey taking lead and setting the tone. He speaks of justice, the perils of wealth, the private prison system, gun violence and much more. And, as expected with Madlib-made beats, the instrumental is a soulful, smooth-moving bop.
