KREAYSHAWN - GUCCI GUCCI

it's a great line

'nails posh so fierce with the gold gloss' is my fav

would be 'lookin like madonna but i'm flossin like ivana' if she didn't say '...TRUMP!' afterward.

song's sort of like lil b for me, though, where i will never listen to the song on my computer without watching the video along with it

needs lil b on the remix

you've seen that rare vid of them smoking a blunt right?

yes -- also she directed "insane", one of my secrete fav lil b videos

ya his beads are majestic in that vid

haha i like 'trump'

so shes been signed to a million dollar 360 deal with sony

"don't get a 360" - wff

are "360" deals the kind where the label fucks you out of all your money not just the money from recordings?

Lee-zhurrrrrrr is the best bit.

yeah, which is a bad deal most of the time but there are instances where it might make more sense; they front you a bunch of money, you gamble on succeeding. kreayshawn is one artist where it seems like a stronger bet than it would for WFF, who could just bank off of a growing grassroots of street CDs; if kreayshawn is gonna pop its going to be as a pop artist, not as a rapper grinding out mixtapes every couple of months. shes broke -- still does video directing to pay rent! -- so i makes sense to do the sink-or-swim career approach, capitalize now

i mean, ostensibly it does. not sure which artists have succeeded w/ the 360 deal yet

nah anyone signing a 360 is a sucker, especially if they have any kind of buzz that ensures they'll be offered a deal from more than one place

also "million dollar deal" isn't as impressive as it sounds considering that that number represents the budget for the whole project, and that's like the bare minimum it takes to release an album

This song is so great... So many great lines....wasn't keen on the earlier stuff at all though. Not an *obvious* act to throw monies at.

In the interview she says this was the first time she tried making a song, before she was just goofing off. Seems like an obvious talent to their money at to me, in that she has obv distinctive star power, with the large caveat that it also seems like a p big risk - of course, ten years ago we wouldn't have thought twice

Al might be right re 360s, if she could have gotten a better deal idk

'young person from la/oakland'

two very different types, IMO

At least she didn't get a PS3

shes more young person from oakland, the video was shot in LA & she moved to LA three months ago

there is a large crossover, even now

i love that she's a max b stan

theres a pic somewhere of her meeting dame grease

i saw her refer to him as her godfather

doesn't nicki minaj have a 360 deal?

if kreayshawn's voice was a little less...nasal, i think i could love this unreservedly (as opposed to just love it quite a lot). i mean it's always in my head so there you go i suppose.

this shit is straight tweety bird tattoo

I've been avoiding it because like Rebecca Black it's one of those polarizing viral videos.

its just a good pop song tho -- theres no omg its so bad to it

i've already memorized both verses

gnarly, radical, on the block i'm magical

seriously tho, lil b for the remix plz -- he needs to be on a song w/ a chorus that goes "one big room / full of bad bitches"

well, part of the chorus at least

some dumb-ass think pieces about this song lately

prove it

any odd future connection ensures at least 50 dumb-ass think pieces

lol

these are more from ppl who repped for odd future hating on her for not being a good 'technical rapper'

http://creamteam.tv/?p=4120

the weird thing is that her OF connection doesn't exist beyond video cameos

yeah, not reading a "creamteam.tv" piece

it blows my mind how ppl try to equate this w/ hype over odd future generally ... theres a reason this got so much attention & its because its more immediate than any odd future song MAYBE sans 'novacane' + its, like, actually got some appeal to women

i mean, wtf is this shit:

I think a lot of people are excited about Kreayshawn because she is, in theory, “radical.”

no, they like it cuz she wrote a catchy-ass song & has style & personality.

or that if you mute the “Gucci Gucci” video it could easily be a shitty SNL skit about hipsters.

what a week for whiney to be sb'd

yeah that sentence is meaningless xxp

she is, in theory, "magical"

"gnarly"

Kreayshawn SUCKS at rapping. Homegirl can’t string together two cohesive lines to save her life.

this person later goes on to say that shes uncomfortable w/ a white person biting someone else's culture, although less so when its amanda blank or lady sovereign

amanda blank fucking wishes she ever did anything as hooky as "gucci gucci"

I hope she collaborates with Too Short and/or E-40.

thumbs up!

you should certainly check out this thread

What are the definitive goon cru anthems?

😎

can't believe there's not a club mix of Kitty Pryde's "Okay Cupid"

never heard 'okay cupid' before, that's a good one

I love that Kitty Pryde mixtape and wish she had continued in that vein

Totally forgot that I actually bought a Lil’ Debbie shirt and might still have it somewhere

She killed it yesterday at mosswood … the song about her lost cat was awesome tbh

Noteworthy:
K: most of the people here are my mom’s friends
K: make some noise if you have a cat!

Her mom played guitar for the Trashwomen:

The Trashwomen/Mummies/Phantom Surfers show I caught 30 years ago (Sven-Erik Geddes' bday) was also awesome. Perhaps bby Kreayshawn was there?
