Young Thug thread

If Gucci is doing real jail time, and he might be, the thing I'm going to miss more than his output is his ear for new talent. Even during his own creative ruts he's been incredible as developing protege rappers and producers, to the point where him being sidelined feels like a big blow to Atlanta's entire farm system

yeah feel like he was putting together a real cool scene w scooter and thugger

Scooter is absolutely slaying lately. "Disfunction" is one of my fav tracks of the year, and SL2 is super solid, too.

And Peewee Longway also seems to be clawing his way out of the second tier.

Pffffft! Hell Yes and Point In My Life are classics.

So is Activist.

scholar

Gucci's had a 1/15 good song ratio for about 3 years

so 80 good songs in 3 years, that's not bad

lol

otm

80 sounds about right.

SHEESH

FENG SHUI!

haha nice

you know Im in with just about any menacing low end horn stab

Just a free mixtape bt Thugga Mane La Flare ws OK at first but by like four tracks in just boringly halfassed

Haven't been able to get it this yet either; a lot of it is a disjointed mess. Thug doesn't sound sharp at all, and even when he does he's on such a different wavelength from Gucci it just doesn't work.

"Siblings" is a nice throwback to the ICFN era, so much so that it might be a leftover from that era

"Thug doesn't sound sharp at all" i'm saying. Moments here I like though, and the beats are good -- def. better than that Bloody Jay collab tape which I got nothing out of

it is cool to have a new rapper (well I didn't get into 1017 Thug 'til after the fact) I'm genuinely excited about though, cuz depending on possibly past-their-prime legends is bad for your health

The first 5 tracks are all straight fire, no clue what you guys are talking about

Loving Young Thugga Mane Laflare with a passion

what am i talking about? i meant 7 tracks

new mixtape sounds pretty good to me. I'm only just starting/trying to get into Young Thug though. but this stuff is a lot better than "Stoner" to me. "Don't Look at Me" is sick.

I've warmed to the opening stretch after hearing it on actual headphones. Comes out pretty strong, and as a whole it's leaps above Black Portland. But the final half still feels like Gucci verses copied and pasted onto Thug tracks, or vice versa

gucci verses are fire too though

she look like a bag of money, bag of kush or bag of them bricks

Closing song is great.

Gucci cracking his iPhone screen is my favorite so far

I think they have p good chemistry: Gucci all laid back and repetitive, Thug restless, all over the place. It makes more sense than most Gucci collabos.

I like "OMG BRO." the other "OMG" not so much

what's up with there being more tracks listed on the back cover image vs. the actual download too, those other three songs actually exist

lol @ mixtapes

dig that track

I dunno what my problem was last night, loving Young Thugga Mane La Flare rn

I even love the second OMG

The finished version of "OMG" with Iamsu is so awesome:

TBH i think that song is better in the context of the tape than as a solo track.

Ha, I'm just the opposite. I'm too OCD for this kind of thing; the incomplete version on the tape is going to bug me now

i'm totally mystified by the middling reaction this tape has gotten .. way better than the bloody jay one imo

The second OMG is ridiculous, can't even understand how those sounds come from a person

agree this is better than bloody jay, but that ain't saying much

shout out to this tape's wildly varied volume level, makes for a solid listening experience

That's mostly a problem w the no DJ version though, lol

oh i guess that's the only thing i've heard, oops

This Thug track from the Ola Playa mixtape is incredible. Good stuff littered all over that tape, actually

Ha, the comments for that OMG Soundcloud are awesome! On the Ice jj fish tip.

finally got around to listening to Guwop La Picacho Stonebrr Two Times and i'm wondering why does dj holiday have any right to be yelling all over this if the songs aren't even mixed?

nobody tell my wife but our 4-year-old was in the back seat of my car going "i'm a stoner, i'm a stoner, i'm a stoner" today

lmao

i honestly tried to get him to do the Fabo part instead but he wasn't interested
