The Miseducation of Freddie Gibbs is a mixtape by American rapper Freddie Gibbs. It was released as a free digital download on May 21, 2009. Most of the songs on the mixtape, along with Gibbs' follow-up mixtape Midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik, were recorded when he was signed to Interscope Records. The mixtape features Ray Cash, Devin The Dude and Black Flint, as guest appearances. While at Interscope, Gibbs had opportunities to work with high-profile producers like Just Blaze, Polow da Don, and The Alchemist, who, with Gibbs, would later end up releasing the collaboration albums Alfredo and Alfredo 2. The title is a play on Lauryn Hill’s debut "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill", similarly how other mixtapes by Gibbs released in this time reference classic albums, with his next mixtape "Midwestgangstaboxframecadillacmuzik" taking inspiration from OutKast's "Southernplayalisticadillacmuzik", his compilation "The Labels Tryin’ to Kill Me!" paying homage to "The Ghettos Tryin’ to Kill Me!" by Master P and "Str8 Killa No Filla" which pays homage to the album Equal Rights by Peter Tosh.
