“This album is all about Vibin. All about doing your thing not overthinking it and truly praising #thedude that is PG. Shout out to me ✈️”
I saw a friend fresh from the Family Not a Group takeover of Sofar Sounds this week, and her excitement about the performances was contagious. “SundaY was there! And Ozer! And um.. some professor guy? He was great.” Yeah, it’s like that when you see FNG, it’s almost overwhelming how much talent they can put up onstage in a single night, and it’s even more impressive the love and friendship exuding from the group. No egos, just building.
Of course, the professor guy is none other than Professa Gabel, who just dropped The Bay Lebowski with guest appearances by Stunnaman02, Grand-O, EaSWay, Serg2x, and Zemyran. Produced by Adeyemi, it’s all classic Bay Area-flavored slaps, dressed and drizzled in Gabel’s cool, cutting lyricism and laidback braggadocio. Oh, did I say no egos? Well, this is hip hop. Rappers been building themselves up before y’all called it self-care.
