Freddie Gibbs Discusses the Inspiration for his Freddie Kane OG Cannabis Strain

Following in the footsteps of other rappers and businessmen, Indiana rapper Freddie Gibbs has decided to release his own strain of marijuana. The potent OG cannabis is entitled Freddie Kane.

Freddie sat down with Cypress Hill's B-Real in The Smokebox to discuss the details of his strain, and his inspiration for creating his own brand of cannabis. The Smokebox is a segment on BREALTV in which rapper B-Real interviews another rapper or industry professional, generally inside of a vehicle while smoking marijuana. B-Real seems to prefer blunts, or marijuana cigarettes rolled in cigar paper, over glass pipes, vaporizers, and other methods of ingesting the drug.

"We got this Freddie Kane Strain, smoking a little of it right now," he said. "It's Freddie Kane OG. We coming with the oils, all different kind of flavors so be on the lookout for that Freddie Kane OG... Looking at guys like you, Berner, I see you n***as doing your s**t," Gibbs continued. "I'm really not just a rapper like, 'I'm about to put my name on weed. Nah, definitely not. I'm definitely working with the culture."

Gibbs recently released his acclaimed album Shadow of a Doubt, which was an apt follow-up to his collaboration with legendary hip-hop producer, Madlib, on Piñata. Shadow of a Doubt charted at number 76 on the Billboard 200, 11 on the Billboard "Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums," and 4 on the Billboard "Independent Albums" chart.

Despite his affinity for cannabis, however, Freddie Gibbs told The Smokebox that is determined to stay fit and lead a healthy lifestyle. The Gary, Indiana rapper detailed his workout regiment, and asserted that, other than marijuana, he was entirely drug-free.

Gibbs also went on to discuss the making and influence of the song "Extradite," which was collaboration with Black Thought of The Roots.
