letz talk abt gucci mane

no i just mean he switches up his flow fairly frequently, it doesnt sound like he gets stuck on the same style to me. im wondering if ppl interpret 'flow' the way i do. flow is like, the rhythmic structure of yr voice. the way you arrange syllables. it seems to me hes better than most at switching that up. if ppl are talking about, like, his articulation, then yes, he always sounds like himself & isnt putting on like nikki minaj type accents or whatever

he even quotes the-dream -_-

ALSO LINDSTROM & CHRISTABELLE (jokes)

i'm iffy on the ends of the first two lines, actually have no idea what he's saying -- it's pretty easy to understand but i'm not sure if he's using english words or what ("spundivida"????)

heat yeah i ?????
gucci done ?????
took her to the 'tel, but gucci done bought her furniture
i keep her hair fixed, so hoes can't outshine her
you lil bitty stones, gucci done kobe bryant her
everything designer, truly hard to find her
dime with a mind who i can buy some diamonds
pink princess colored karats got her shining
pound of bubble kush or purple thrax when she remind me
if i'm not home, the trap is where ya find me
"gucci what you doin?", baby cookin up a nine piece
i'll be home shortly, so baby just wait for me
game ain't promised or tomorrow so pray for me

a mill worth of jewels, 106 get an interview
still in the six, wrappin bricks in the M2s
a brick for a feature, a bill for a interlude
bust a brick down like the twat of a prostitute
mustard color benz, and the diamonds are mustard, too
red inside, with the ketchup tennis shoes
meatloaf bugatti, ashantis are gravy

a baby times four, times ten times ten
charge a nigga one just to bring the shit in
i'm I-20 shawty, flat shoals, shawty
i'm all the grams shawty, gucci don't short me

you lil bitty stones, gucci done kobe bryant her

this is actually

you lil bitty stoned her, gucci done kobe bryant her

i feel like i should have mod powers for this thread so i can edit my transcriptions

this beat is like the "me & u" or rap beats or something

this is crazy cuz i'm sure it took zaytoven (sounds like him at least) 10 mins to make this beat and gucci 20 mins to write the verses, and the song just floats out into the blog ether and it's just dope as all hell

this one is kind of a lark but the zay production is so on point

also gucci's on the BAWSE album on this joint (altho the one w/ his verse hasn't leaked yet) produced by lex luger of "o let's do it"/"hard in da paint" fame -- it sounds epic as fuck tbh

lol @ ross -- "top back, i'm circumcised"

Yeah, I have no idea what he says in those first two lines either. Awesome song, tho.

this song sounds like some of the mixtape tracks he dropped in like jan last year -- im thinking 'crush on you'

yeah -- that whisper flow

finally got around to giving this the full attention it deserves. it's really great, might be his most consistent mixtape yet - there's not really a wasted moment here. no r&b songs either, thankfully.

that said is it rong to say there's no real killer choruses here? no songs (besides maybe "dat's my life") that would crack the gucci top 7 or anything, but 1) that's saying a lot and 2) i'm sure i'll change my mind about that in time

kev you're right about the choruses -- i feel like the rapping is so above & beyond that he didn't even bother with them -- actually i think the "normal" chorus is great as a classic gucci mane chorus that has as much rhyming and wordplay as a verse & also think the "long money" chorus is totally epic

also agree that there might not be a song here (except maybe "dats my life" or "soldiers and cowards") that would crack my gucci top 10 (altho there are a bunch of singular verses that could) but all songs are like... in the 10-15 caliber range and in succession it's kind of staggering

lots of great production, and good beat selection too - can't remember which ones now but i think at least a couple were older songs he was rapping over?

xp yeah i'm hardly complaining, i mean every song here is just classic mixtape gucci - choruses are all perfectly fine and efficient, and his verses seem more focused than i've seen him in a while, they're all good to great imo. even the guest verses are all pretty good i think

i still think this is an oddly sober record & its missing a lot of the pop-weirdness im drawn too ... as long as its just another unique mixtape & not a 'future direction of boringness' im fine w/ it though

it's much more about verses than anything else

i think it's a thrilling tape -- most fun i've had listening to something for the first time all year

"long money" is the rightful heir to "everything", the #1 epic gucci slow burner

hey whiney

IS THIS ANOTHER JUSTICE SAMPLE

btw i'm assuming this is a demo cuz the mix sucks and there's no hook

this is totally a justice sample -- he kills the flow imo

i'll buy a hamburger for the first of you fucking new jacks that can tell me where his "the world is very different now" intro is from—without using google

thank you for this song jordan, it is my jam

i'd like to hear whiney flip gucci's "can't buy a burger cuz i'm too fuckin famous" line

no problem, i spent tons of time producing it because i wanted you to like a gucci mane song

can't buy a burger cuz i'm the hipster puppies dude

whiney i'll let you know if/when the full/cdq version leaks

Please do!

Let’s start off with the beat. Gucci bought it for five dollars. If he paid more than he probably cops new wack ass jewelry all the time that he thinks will make look better. He probably gets discouraged easily and calls ppl hater. Gucci sounds monotonous on this track and Swizz can do whatever he wants now in rap because his girl is Alicia Keys(so if he wants to make some wack hooks it’s ok.) Yo I hear indy music is hott in New York so let’s sample indy artist that nobody cares about so we don’t pay that much publishing. Thank you fader and mtv europe for introducing the streets to these confused white kids. Who the fuck listens to justice. Who knows who this asshole is sampling that came out with a song the day before he made this beat. atleast he’s not the producer that suffers from alzheimer’s by the name of Timbaland. I guess he pays the for them. Gucci sounds like somebody is telling him to shut the fuck up in prison.

yeah that's a totally classic column

er, comment

Talib Kweli makes a good foil for Gucci... I like their song together.

o_O at gucci being on a my first kiss remix

"long money" is my favorite song of the year
