letz talk abt gucci mane

he's still the best rapper in the world when he wants to be

there's a reason we haven't been transcribing!

in broad strokes, these verses started becoming technically impressive first and lyrically impressive second, imo

that's alright with me, generally. still think the year has been somewhat of a disappointment

he put out the best rap album of the year fwiw

i disagree

not as good as e-40 or flockaveli

"he put out the best rap album of the year"

i agree & i'm a big E-40 fan.

burrprint might have been his last great consistely great take taken as a whole but i think his best tracks/verses this year are p obviously just as good or greater than those of previous years.

plenty of stuff transcribed this year, esp when u take into account that he released a lot

and uh, charges have been dropped btw

by "album" you're sayin mr zone 6? challop alert but imo flockaveli can go toe to toe with any gucci tape I've heard

gucci's highs are much higher and about 100x more numerous though

i wasn't talking about "2010 gucci," i just meant the stuff that's come out in the last 6 months or so

ANYWAY, those new songs on dgb are pretty sweet. 30 days 30 million esp.

flockaveli kills gucci's album or his mixtapes from '10

hes not as good a rapper obv

and gucci's best tapes from the past >>>> flockaveli

but cmon.

mr zone 6 is still mad boring in parts

mr zone 6 & flockaveli will def be in my top 10, prob my top 5, but zone 6 will be higher

i dont see how anyone can argue this year wasnt a falloff in many ways even if hes still a great rapper

man zone 6 is so boring

this is classic deej

other than 'long money' i dont think theres a song on that i really wanted to listen to more than a couple times

ferrari music is boring

burrprint 2 is boring

not really?? ive been pretty clear about the kind of stuff i like about gucci & thats like his least-pop mixtape, w/ his least funny lyrics, its just a 'rapping clinic' c. tom breihan which is cool & impressive i guess but not really entertaining

lol i'm just saying that you went from "there are boring parts" to "this is so boring" in the matter of like 90 seconds

this & coca coca >>>> anything on mr. zone 6

id say bp2 is def less consistent, but its not more boring

you're trolling now

does ferrari music count as a 'mixtape' of his -- isnt it just odds & ends comp

no im really being serious!!

im not the only one who thought mr zone 6 was underwhelming dude

does ferrari music count as a 'mixtape' of his -- isnt it just odds & ends comp

what do you think burrprint 2 is?

i don't get how you can praise raw street shit off of 'burrprint 3d' & then turn around and call "cowards & soldiers" or "dats my life" or "stove music" 'boring', let alone more boring than "everybody lookin"

it was unreleased material released as an 'official mixtape' -- i thought ferrari music was mostly odds & ends that had leaked out on the other tapes & internet compiled together by a dj

all of those songs are at least as good as your beloved "frowney face"

i think it can be seen as a falloff year in that his output has been rel limited & inconsistent (burrprint 2hd & the appeal being the inconsistenc) but mr zone 6 & jewelry selection are totally continuing along the path of greatness of burrprint 3d & the movie 1

also as you yourself have said, he's best measured by the strength of his best individual tracks, which are just as strong and fresh & creative this year

'everybody looking' is not boring!!! its super weird & awesome & pop-y & queasy and one of his best tracks this year

man i typed that up and had to click "submit post" like nine times cause you guys go so fast

all of those songs are at least as good as your beloved "frowney face"

not even close -- this is like saying the movie 2 >>> the movie

oh wait thats something else youve argued

i have to remember that you defended the keyshia cole & bobby valentino songs on 'state vs radric davis'

lol @ 'your beloved frowney face' -- his 1st verse on that hits harder than any verse off mr zone 6 bar none period -- post lyrics of a better one

the first verse of "cowards & soldiers"

don't make me stop burnin kush but start burnin your body parts

put tear drops underneath my eye cuz i wish some days i could cry / but to lose my self respect my n***a i would rather die

most of the time i was bumpin top authority
tell it to my nine cuz you pussy niggas borin me

this is like slam poetry now or something lol

i think stuff like "rooftop" is a better meeting of writing & weirdoness than grumble mumble stuff like "poltergeist"

or like, "normal" > "gross" as far as one-word repetition gucci songs go

man no way does this verse stand in the same universe as 'frowney face' -- a verse w/ college puns?? vs actually emotional autobiographical raps w/ statement of purpose -- not even fair

"dats my life" is as hard as anything on 'burrprint'

gross has a way better beat
