have never been able to keep up w/ individual leaks of Gucci tracks but the words "'Scarycat' featuring Nelly" for some reason had a sense of urgency to me:

hahaha a certain ex ilxor created a twitter bot that retweeted anything that mentioned Ron Paul or Gucci Mane, except it would switch one's name for the other
just went to check it and its been suspended :(

does gucci mane rap exclusively over original beats? are there freestyles over non-original production on the early tapes?
― flopson, Tuesday, 31 January 2012 02:42 (twelve years ago) link
yes

reviving the old thread for this one since the leaks from the new tape have been kind of great

why use a bank card when you can use a face card?

there's a new gucci mane thread?
― ⚓ (gr8080), Thursday, 2 February 2012 21:47 (twelve years ago) link
i dont think so
idunno i'm not convinced by the new gucci stuff quite yet, partly b/c i don't think there was as much of a falloff as others seem to, and partly b/c i feel like people are primed for a 'gucci comeback' -- like, the audience is more of the story than the music.
i have noticed an uptick on hits on my blog for gucci content recently
― #YOLO #NAMASTE (D-40), Thursday, 2 February 2012 22:19 (twelve years ago) link
yeah i've gotten a flurry of emails this week asking me to approve comments on "best gucci mane songs of 2008"
one was just "I got a big gun"
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 2 February 2012 22:37 (twelve years ago) link
anyway, "north pole", "sometimes" and "face card" are really good from a production standpoint, and he seems to be more playful and less angry on those songs... maybe excepting "sometimes"
seems like he's picked himself back up a bit and that combined with production from just drumma & zay could make for a really solid tape imo

nah, i think we had been talking about him some in the goon thread tho
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 2 February 2012 22:39 (twelve years ago) link
but for real zay's beat on "face card" is o_o
the beat is cool but i'm not that impressed by the rapping, it comes off as birdman-like repetition of a few overdone phrases. like i'm not expecting a return to "wonderful"-esque stream of consciousness rap but some personality would be nice

feel like this is kind of a manufactured comeback still. NOT YET CONVINCED
― #YOLO #NAMASTE (D-40), Saturday, 4 February 2012 21:51 (twelve years ago) link
manufactured by who
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 4 February 2012 21:52 (twelve years ago) link
him & his team. people are responding favorably b/c he's working w/ new producers but i'm waiting to see if the spark that was missing from his perfectly competent record from last year has returned, not if he can sound good over a mike will beat (p much impossible not to)
― #YOLO #NAMASTE (D-40), Saturday, 4 February 2012 22:06 (twelve years ago) link
i still don't see why that precludes people from talking about how he sounds good over mike will beats
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 4 February 2012 22:08 (twelve years ago) link
personally i think it will just be a perfectly competent record minus that "spark" but i'm cool with that
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 4 February 2012 22:09 (twelve years ago) link
oh me too, im more talking abt the comeback narrative i feel brewing
― #YOLO #NAMASTE (D-40), Saturday, 4 February 2012 22:16 (twelve years ago) link
i guess him staying out of jail for this long is a comeback itself of sorts
there's a lil spark on that first verse. i haven't been crazy about the other trap back songs tho
― Jacques_Lamure, Saturday, 4 February 2012 23:51 (twelve years ago) link
it's weird to realize this is the first time i've seen him in a video since the face tattoo, caught me off guard at first
the feeling around this new stuff is probably less 'comeback' than the dead cat bounce of 'at least V-Nasty isn't on these songs'
― some dude, Sunday, 5 February 2012 03:11 (twelve years ago) link
figz'sz videos are pretty cool. i hope they do more together

what's the new tape called?

Trap Back

good lookin
― diln (k3vin k.), Wednesday, 8 February 2012 06:55 (twelve years ago) link
"Comeback" or no, Trap Back is dope. "Brick Fair" is great. But I thought Gucci put out some very good stuff last year; "Up My Alley" is one of my favourite Gucci songs ever.
― "I know its hard to hear but I'm a Realest." (rennavate), Friday, 10 February 2012 20:21 (twelve years ago) link
yeah up my alley is dope, voted for it in the ILM poll
― ⚓ (gr8080), Friday, 10 February 2012 20:23 (twelve years ago) link
i'd say there's a 2% chance he recorded that in 2011
― J0rdan S., Friday, 10 February 2012 20:28 (twelve years ago) link
yeah, still voted for it
― Number None, Friday, 10 February 2012 20:28 (twelve years ago) link
i like trap back quite a bit. he still has a way to go tho, he needs to be consistent again. he set a pretty high bar '07-09

Yeah, I was going to note that—I think you're right. But that's when the track came out (right?), so to me that's when it's eligible.

Also, I think a Gucci Mane/Future mixtape could be great.
