Fredo Bang Explains Why Kevin Gates Is A "Whole Other Monster"
Fredo Bang reveals that his melodic side was influenced by Kevin Gates and playing in the band for 10 years.
Not only has Fredo Bang made it into the spotlight, but he is scorching hot right now. The "Top" remix ft. Lil Durk is steadily doing numbers and In The Name Of Gee (Still Hated) is still on rotation. Recently, the rapper visited the Breakfast Club where he spoke on his past, his come-up in Baton Rouge, and some of his musical influences, notably Kevin Gates, who he collaborated on "No Security" with, sits high on his list of musical influences, explaining that singing on records wasn't necessarily that popular until the rapper came home.
Bang quoted, "Gates the first artist to ever post my music before I ever met him," he explained. "As far as musically, though. He a whole other monster. He made the whole Louisiana -- before Gates came home from jail, you couldn't sing on no song. You either gotta make a fight song, a killing song or a dancing song. The only way we 'bout to listen to you. But he came home with the whole singing to females and all that and everybody embraced it."
