anyone keeping track of what are the good thgger features?

He seems to raise his game for the big tracks, but most of the mixtapes are 90% filler (as expected) slightly overrated, like 1027 thug, isn't as good as made out in here. YT however, is better than thread gives credit for. Most interesting rapper in years, probably.

yeah gets people way more hype than "Lifestyle" gotta say
lol
these 1017 Thug sequels are Brick Squad/Atlantic putting out old stuff he's recorded right? Not 100% on his label situation. Def. nowhere near the original tho
― nova, Monday, 1 September 2014 17:21 (nine years ago) link
yeah theres a lot of dregs out there
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 17:57 (nine years ago) link
metro thuggin shd be nice if that ever comes out
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 17:58 (nine years ago) link
i like casino's "communication" which is obv really a young thug song
best young thug i've heard recently is "idk why"

Skyfall is boring but i like mike will's 'take a picture'—does that sorta spacious let-thugger-be-thugger much more effectively imo
i've liked a bunch of tracks on the gucci collab tapes although they're more album tracks than Singles. I think people have been hating on them because they're not "Stoner" / "Danny Glover" level but IMO that's more essential for showing his depth as an artist, that he's not just a singles jukebox. but you know how it is w/ people chasing whatever's hot, there's not depth or nuance to the understanding of an artist
"Hot Boyz (Intro)" is good
"Texter" was cool ... "Let Up"... "Strange Things"..."You The Best" ... "Ridin Around the City"...those are the ones i remember off the top
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Monday, 1 September 2014 20:05 (nine years ago) link
nice nice i knew someone out there was digging through those gucci tapes
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 20:09 (nine years ago) link
at some point i'll go through and do a better separation. tbh they are pretty inconsistent. young thug is def super duper hit or miss. but when he hits its like better than anything
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Monday, 1 September 2014 20:12 (nine years ago) link
prob mostly an issue of quality control at brick squad corp
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 20:38 (nine years ago) link
yeah "Hot Boyz" has such a massive beat
― nova, Monday, 1 September 2014 20:53 (nine years ago) link
Hot Boyz is great, and I've warmed to La Thugga Mane overall. But at this point I'm probably done checking out any "new" 1017 output from YT. He's pretty clearly off that label, so anything from them with his name on it is clearly leftovers.

^maybe my favorite song this year, kinda feels more like Young Thug f/ Migos tbh
― The Reverend, Monday, 1 September 2014 21:26 (nine years ago) link
Oh yeah "YRN" is like top 3

they aren't 'leftovers,' gucci recorded them ages ago and sat on them until young thug's buzz was up
"YRN" is tight, forgot about that for a second. nice chill track
"Lifestyle" brings me much joy when it comes on radio

one of my fav under-discussed thug hooks from this year

4 Eva Bloody, No Fucks, Florida Water are all good off that tape
― Number None, Monday, 1 September 2014 22:09 (nine years ago) link
remember not liking that tape at all, 1017 Thug and more relevant/recent Thugga Mane La Flare are both way better
still love "The Blanguage" and it'd be cool if they dropped Metro Thuggin soon, dunno what its current status is tho
― nova, Monday, 1 September 2014 22:24 (nine years ago) link
black portland and the gucci tapes sound so bad mane
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 22:38 (nine years ago) link
no excuse for that
― lag∞n, Monday, 1 September 2014 22:39 (nine years ago) link
yea i hated black portland

I don't think Gucci collab is A+ but it's got some jams
― nova, Monday, 1 September 2014 23:07 (nine years ago) link
YRN, best song this year.

im really into the lifestyle video
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:11 (nine years ago) link
lifestyle and yrn are both pretty big departures for thugger beatwise
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:16 (nine years ago) link
lifestyle is so good

i hate that line and don't think that song is very good
young thug explicitly remaking drake songs is... not the road he should travel
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:23 (nine years ago) link
no way that line is delightful and hilarious
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:24 (nine years ago) link
thats a kool g rap line

sort of

i think it probably dates back to old comedy records or some shit like that tbh
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:28 (nine years ago) link
did they have phantoms in rap then
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:30 (nine years ago) link
they had curtains
― rap steve gadd (D-40), Tuesday, 2 September 2014 17:30 (nine years ago) link
curtains date back a long way, almost to the beginning

Does the name "Young Thug" and "I Came From Nothing" both come from the first Jeezy album?
