Young Thug thread

hey at what point did barter 6 go from being called an album to a mixtape? not that it matters a whole lot but for a while i saw it being called the debut album but now i see the same thing about hitunes

barter 6 is the debut album, hitunes is the debut ALBUM

literally the day after Barter 6 was released. B6 came out on April 16, and then 300 Ent. announced on April 17 that Thug's "debut album" was coming out in August. it was all very confusing and suspect.

which one u think is wack

mosquito

it's broken, what am I looking at?

Ah it wasn't working on my phone. This is amazing!

lmao that is great

hey which mixtape is LOVE ME FOREVER on

maybe just a loosie? I got it from a tape that was briefly on datpiff called 'in the leak' which if you now search for sez it was removed via a claim by peter rosenberg

yeah i think "Love Me Forever" unscrewed was just one of the millions of leaked songs and was never on an official tape before this. kind of a cool choice to close SS2 with that.

woah chris rae is canon balearic y'all

i thought that at first, but i think it's a different dude

yr right.

rae vs rea

lmao

he's signed to Aer Drummers, right

ss2 is dope imo

ive been really into spaghetti factory lately

i heard "Best Friend" on the radio the other day and 300 put it on iTunes/Spotify, interested to see if that one could hit big

total headbanger when u hear it slightly sped up

maybe 300 are mobilising cos of a bf biter wave, like that trey songz one is egregious, also the new t-wayne 'girlfriend' kinda

i'm kind of mystified at how there's a whole bunch of songs now w/ some variation on "go best friend, that's my best friend" that are being traced back to one particular vine because that phrase has been around forever, nobody owns it

i'm sort of surprised "udiggwhatimsayin" didn't get the single-track traction, it really popped out on first listen and is still the SS standout imo

i am going to see young thug tonight *scrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr*

didn't thug even reach out to the girl to try to get her in the video? its the particular way of saying it. just bc it doesnt have made up terms like 'nae nae' in the title doesnt mean its not from a particular moment or person

anyway IMO "Best Friend" is his best single this year, as far as actual hits go...i like check too

his set went something like:

big racks
hookah
stoner
danny glover
power
all about the money
check
something with gucci i didn't recognise
halftime
with that
good times
best friend
lifestlye

p amazing bunch of songs imo!

How was he though? I hear a lot of people saying he's terrible live but I'm not entirely convinced.

i thought he was good live but my standards are pretty low.

he rapped over his own recorded vocals which i know bothers a lot of people. levels were a bit off (as usual as rap shows i find) but could hear him rapping along well enough. he mostly did all of those songs in full which i appreciated. he was energetic on stage and leant into the crowd to rap into ppls phone cameras. almost all of those songs are big anthems really so as much about the crowd reaction as anything & it was a total joy hearing a bunch of non-native english speakers rap along. i think people went craziest for 'best friend' which i am only lukewarm on. would certainly recommend to a fan but probably not to someone who didn't already know the songs.

he seemed to run off the stage right after he started 'good times' leaving his dj looking a bit bewildered. he returned after a minute or so and did the 'imma ride in her pussy like a stroller' verse first before looping back to the first section. kind of ruined it for me since that song is really just a build up to that line lol

not my vid but probably my fav song he did

Yeah, interestingly the trend of rapping over vocal tracks live seems to have brought back the performance of whose songs instead of the one verse - hook - explosion - new song style that was prevalent until recently. I saw Rae Sremmurd live just a week ago and they rapped over tracks and did full songs and it was fun and energetic in a way rap shows never were just a few years ago.

he had a lot of security on stage looking seriously concerned. i just looked it up & i think he played at the bataclan in paris only a couple of days before the attacks? damn
