Freddie Gibbs’ You Only Die 1nce, released on November 1, 2024, is a raw and introspective follow-up to his 2017 project You Only Live 2wice. It’s a solo effort that strips away flashy features and focuses on Gibbs’ internal battles, regrets, and reflections on fame, violence, and vulnerability.

Gibbs leans into a darker, more confessional tone here. He raps about betrayal, paranoia, and the emotional toll of his lifestyle. Skits featuring Slink Johnson (aka Black Jesus) add a surreal layer, portraying Gibbs in spiritual conflict—tempted by the devil, haunted by past choices.
