letz talk abt gucci mane

i'm talkin kim k, i'm talkin rayyy jayyYY

what up?
the cost of livin? i feel like a trillion bucks
got beef with a million fuck niggas i don't give a fuck

every verse my flow get stupider
my producers don't want to produce for ya

weird tho, this doesn't really feel like an album cut

i don't love "making love to the money" as a piece of music but it's really funny and smart esp when compared to some garbage like "women lie men lie"

had a huge change of heart listening to mr zone 6 last night. i had liked it a lot at first but grew a bit bored of it & started to find and now i am pretty convinced that

this might be the best rap album of the past 3-5 years

and thus the best gucci tape. i feel deej's point abt "lyrical density at the expense of the colorful songwriting and stylistic affects" but when every verse is so sophisticated and well-constructed, it lends a lot more to total songcraft effect than imo. not to mention switching up flows every verse. and he doesn't have a bad verse on the whole album. at first i felt like it was lacking production-wise, but now that i've reached a certain saturation point of familiarity with them & the tape as a whole i realize they're just big growers.

it's true this is pretty much the antithesis of like zone 6 to duvall or the movie pt 1, and maybe the album will balance things out better. but the sacrifice was well worth it imo

* started to find it a bit dry but

** total songcraft effect imo

every verse on mr zone 6 is good, but there aren't that many that are great, i don't think.

the "my shoes come from the zoo / my 'caine come from peru" one on rooftop and "trap house just like morehouse" one on cowards and soldiers come to mind, but verse to verse and song to song i think it's his least memorable tape in the last year or two. in terms of flow it was very rigorous and impressive but in terms of vocabulary and wordplay it seemed pretty bland, i always thought.

dunno, just doesn't have many songs i find myself revisiting that often, compared to everything else before and after it which i revisit and rediscover again and again

thursday

oye

can't we just have like streaming Gucci mixtapes that we hear as he records them....

1. Lil Friend (Feat. Bun B)
2. Trap Talk
3. Missing
4. What It’s Gonna Be
5. Making Love To The Money
6. Gucci Time (Feat. Swizz Beatz)
7. Party Animal
8. Remember When (Feat. Ray J)
9. Haterade (Feat. Nicki Minaj and Pharrell)
10. It’s Alive (Feat. Swizz Beatz)
11. ODog (Feat. Wyclef)
12. Dollar Sign
13. Brand New
14. Weirdo
15. Grown Man (Feat. Estelle)

looks kinda wack :( fingers crossed tho

it indeed does look lame, but oh well

if 'ferrari music' is as good as 'mr. zone 6' & 'jewelery selection' then i'll take the 6 or so good tracks off this & dip

i wish the opening track was instead "Bun Friend" (ft. Lil B)

i guess this "party animal" is a different "party animal" than the one that was on one of those 'cold war' tapes

same question for "weirdo"

gucci1017 I DEDICATE #FERRARIMUSIC TO MY FANS AND @wakaflocka1017

so much for the feud

there was basically no feud

sounds to me it was the kind of private thing that wd be bad for business to acknowledge

i wish the opening track was instead "Bun Friend" (ft. Lil B)

lol i misread it as this and got really disappointed once i figured out i got it wrong

i see that the mixtape is right on time

so the mixtape is out? any word on quality? i won't be able to d/l until muuuuuuch later

10:17 tonight

i would fully support a 10:17 AM drop tbh but thats prob unlikely

this mixtape is bullshit

linkity link

it's a bunch of old shit p much

*deletes*

thanks for the warnin. i didn't have time to d/l it anyway

rims on my M made your trim wanna lay with him
slim with the tilted brim, flashin all my diamond gems
actually, trappin got me countin cash rapidly
wheels spin backwardly, brick squad factory

now i'm just sitting here replaying this bit from "pressure" over & over

i texted this to j0rdan the other day but i should be absolutely clear that after the video & the frequency w/ which IM TALKIN KIM K...IM TALKIN RAY J got stuck in my head i am now a fan of 'makin love to the money'

yeah "making love"'s cool but "gucci time" is awful and the appeal is still lacking a "lemonade" or "wasted" imo. also wasnt he supposed to have a track dropping w/ ciara?

yeah... they were def in the studio together -- i guess the one for his album didn't make the cut, but he still might feature on her album

i had been waiting for this to leak for like a month and a half now

bangerrrrr

boulder
crest's finest
your highness
i'm shinin
got a gold touch
like midas
and my watch be
the tightest

dont have the patience to listen to a ace hood song streaming even when its f gucci

and ive listened to some BULLSHIT streaming vids f. gucci that just sample him for a chorus

idk he kinda spits on that one tbh

ace hood would be the third best rapper in gucci's crew

nah im downloading it -- i just meant i really couldnt skip ahead so i was like blefhjileje

oh i don't even understand what's going on here

dope KE beat too

argh this is going to bad isn't it

why not!

poor Young Jeezy's release is languishing in gucci's shadow.

noz is absolutely slating the album on twitter

yeah he's totally right about that stretch of songs in the second half, that Nicki/Pharrell song is truly awful as is the Wyclef song

;_;

ok obv i haven't heard the album yet & reserve judgment but "i think the magic might be gone" is idiotic, mr zone 6 and jewelry selection are amazing & state vs radric davis wasn't even one of his best releases last year

State Vs Radric Davis got critically slammed by quite a few critics, too. I dunno how easy it is to gauge quality from early reviews cuz there are plenty of critics who think he sucks, just as there are plenty who think he is amazing.
