letz talk abt gucci mane

surf, if comments boxes reflected the quality of the site they're on no blog would be any good. they're secondary material, there's no reason you have to read them.

soon there's gonna be an Illmatic vs Reasonable Doubt debate in there

ha i think someone made a nas/jay comparison to dorks hating on gucci in that comment box actually

http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/artsdesk/music/2009/12/17/go-go-gucci/

DC go-go band covers of Gucci

man, go-go kinda sucks now, huh

Based on those videos you think, or have you been making the rounds of MD and DC halls and clubs?

I haven't even watched 'em all yet

nah, i've never seen a go go show live, so i know i can't really talk. just not impressed by those bootlegs.

i only know what i hear on the radio and occasionally at shows or on bootlegs, but go-go has been boring or bumming me out pretty steadily for the past few years

idk whats wrong w/ me but the ballads have really grown on me

I WANT HER got a video

is no artist safe from this monster pharell

actually if he wasnt singing id like this a lot

lmao @ that beat, everytime i think the neptunes have hit rock bottom they dig a ditch

i dunno i think its funny to imagine gucci chilling on the beach w/ an umbrella in his drink rapping to this

i wonder if he was like "i'm tired of getting these lush, full-bodied beats for free from my in-house producers, i should get something incredibly chintzy and cheap-sounding from the most successful and expensive producers of the past decade"

i think i'm developing a morbid fascination with pharell's quiet storm + big corny bridge tracks. they're terrible, but at least they're different from anything else. i'd love to hear the beat cd with the tracks that DON'T get picked.

xp

this is definitely of a piece with "goodlife", which i don't think i've ever made it all the way through.

i dunno if it wasnt for the hook i seriously wouldnt mind this at all. also, gucci's 2nd verse is pretty amazing

this is all wrong cuz im doing it on one quick listen so plz help w/ corrections:

can it all make the time stop
everybody pall
gucci stand, even heavily married man give applause
if ya sick ill prolly cut ya fingers off to get the ???
and i come home evry night and take you out to eat on saturdays
yo ex-boyfriend was not a baller he was gettin by barely
hilarious, apparently lil homie likes a parody
i put amazing carats on you, you should see the clarity
with a co-parent a daughter in the future she'll inherit it
i cannot stop starin at ya i mean at ya draws
see the kid buy you a church and and we'll donate millions to charity
acknowledge me and i can help you study more geography
psychology, my nuts ???? my biology
im stoppin ??? buy some property
its lonely at the top so wont you come and get on top of me

cue forks "psychology, my nuts ???? my biology" screen name

idk whats wrong w/ me but the ballads have really grown on me

even though i generally skip spotlight, i think it would have worked as an Usher single. itd at least be better than another confessions rehash

so besides the burrprint what are 2 other essential gucci mixtapes? i need to use up my 2 remaining datpiff downloads of the day

lol @ waka 3:29

haha waka kinda owns that video

waka is so gifable!

btw

bad hoes in chi-cago
first class to mo-rocco

i like that this time their strategy for making it seem like gucci is not away in jail is releasing one video a week instead of one mixtape a week

haaaa

Wacka is my fav weed carrier in ages.

So of his many mixtapes, which is the best?

eh, that question

download the .zip i posted upthread

Repost the link? I can't find it.

good review.

"He says some stuff that doesn't make any sense at all: "Eat rappers like Jeffrey Dahmer/ Don't call us Sinead O'Connor.""

cmon tom

that diplo tapes out btw. i guessss i'll listen tonight

haa i already caught that & alerted hq was hoping it'd get by

this is probably old stuff for you guyz cuz yer all so hip but just in case:

http://maddecent.com/blog/2010/01/11/gucci-mane-diplo-presents-free-gucci-best-of-the-cold-war-mixtapes/

i think one of the problems with this new diplo tape (and diplo in general) is that although it contains tracks by artists who i don't hate (and who in some cases i actually like), it makes the mistake of assuming that because ppl like both these artists on a separate level, they will gel and fit together to produce a product equal to, or greater than the sum of their parts. but this never ever happens.

but of course. lotsa people will love it.

fairly certain i wont like this
