yes, :-(

"Stove Music" from mr. zone 6 is so amazing

the way yo gotti pronounces "mruuzik" and "confruuze it" also "lames gon cop it d-boys gon abruuuse it"

and then the whole rest of his verse.

Has anyone noticed Gucci's speech impediment that makes him pronounce anything starting with st- as "sk-" i.e. "Make you scrip (strip) same way these hoes do it" or "I'm back on these skreets"? I've never heard anyone say it that way

lol gucci didn't invent that or anything

Lol yeah that's a p common dialect thing iirc

That shit makes yo gotti sound like a retard, also his verse is worthless

xp I've never been to the South irl but of all the ATL rappers I've listened to for years I never noticed this pronunciation pattern.

accents in the South are cray. I love ATL too.

On third listen of Gucci Time, repetitive Justice sample is still annoying as hell (and I love Justice), but I think it might click soon like most of the songs on Mr. Zone 6

skreet instead of street is just slang dudes

i think "skreet" is of mid-atlantic origin? (shiples?)

flocka's in the new gucci video

why yes, i am interested in a documentary of gucci mane's first 60 days after being freed from prison

yeah i hear it plenty, or "skraight" moreso

Drumma Boy's beat on "All About the Money"=pure weight. man that bass line, so sinister and pulsating, coupled with those synths....Gucci killing it too makes this a current favorite.

I live in the south and have heard skrimp instead of shrimp for at least 20 years. That's all.

monday

ima guess that I will never be caught up on Gucci mixtapes. does dude walk around town with a tape recorder strapped to his head

you mean SKRAPPED to his head.

looking forward to that. fuck dj holiday tho.

typing w/ ATL slang required for remainder of thread

is that a diamond token from south park?

haha it does resemble Starvin' Marvin a bit

um it is starvin marvin, he has a starvin marvin chain, duh

I'm sorry I failed you

just dont let it happen again

is Back to the Trap House good? couldn't find a review in a respected media publication (just some lame Hip Hop blog that said Gucci's the worst rapper in the world, which discreditedi t immediately).

why dont u just listen to it and be the judge

ahh yes I forgot asking people their opinions on music before we've had the chance to parse it ourselves is discouraged, thank you for your help. Delete ILX

in the time it took u to search for reviews and post in here u couldve listened to it already

in fifteen minutes?

that's one short assed album

it's good, yes

Ok, so anybody who isn't a sardonic ass wanna reply? part of the reason I'm asking is that Best Buy has it (I still buy cds see), and I was asking for a recommendation since I'm going to be gone most of the weekend and don't have time to d/l it or go on youtube and listen to it. i was probably gonna get it anyway, but I was just curious as to YOUr opinions since I respect them.

xxpost thanks k3vin

I don't care for it.

i got the other trap house albums for completist purposes, going to d/l the rest of the mixtapes soon. I now officially have way too much music to listen to in the next week.

Back to the traphouse is pretty good, but its a notch below his post-08 stuff

I reviewed it for popmatters but the review probably isn't that good tbh

It's something you can look back on and see the roots of gucci's goofy pop brilliance, but lyrically its not on the same level as the mixtape stuff that came after it

Has some classics tho -- I might be, 15 minutes, bird flu, freaky gurl etc

yea i might be is the only song i ever go back to on that tbh

Song is most notable for providing the Jackie chain hook imo

k I actually cancelled the one order and picked up Back to the Trap House and Murder was the Case (which yea I know is some new songs combined with some old ones, but figured itw asn't a bad start). gonna hafta go reload up on CD-Rs for the mixtapes.

I'm amazed at the great divide of thought on Gucci Mane. even though his albums are successful, a lot more mainstream or casual fans tend to say he sucks than someone like, T.I., per se. I don't get the criticisms. Are people really buying his albums and expecting him to drop lyrics like Tribe CAlled Quest?

never heard it round here, where accents are more about bending vowels and R's, always associate skreets with earlier slurrier T.I.

yay gucci sosa came in the mail

yeah it's such bullshit that SO many people who give Rick Ross a free pass still hate on Gucci

some people wear hating rappers as a badge of honor. I did for many years. I guess the shame that comes with potentially loving a "wack" rapper is too much to bear for any mortal man.

well i totally wear hating Ross as a badge of honor, i'm ok with hate. i just think it's funny how some southern rappers can get past the usual stigmas with the right co-signs/label/beats and other guys stay on the shit list no matter how much better they are.

LIL WAYNE TO THREAD (tho I do really like Carter I-III but c'mon dude gets away with murder)
