Trap Back

good lookin

"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.

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.

so there's supposed to be an album before summer?

Damn, too much shit for me to keep abreast of. *goes to DatPiff* Is it any good?

eh i was underwhelmed

yeah i don't remember it being much of anything
that was a pretty rough time for gucci
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 11 February 2012 04:29 (twelve years ago) link
first track is great on that imo
― pandemic, Saturday, 11 February 2012 11:43 (twelve years ago) link
i am realizing that there were a lot of old gucci mixtapes I never dug into. looks like datpiff doesn't have most of em tho (think j0rd said his managers pulled em down)? filestube here we go then.
tempted to d/l the new one but I'm at the point where I have too much new hip hop to listen to and i just wanna let what I have in front of me marinate first. datpiff ain't goin nowhere
― Bo Jackson Overdrive, Saturday, 11 February 2012 14:49 (twelve years ago) link
well, a bunch of his classic tapes were taken down from datpiff by grayzone inc, which is fucking insane and stupid

'trap back' has been downloaded from dat piff 340,015 times and streamed another 329,165 times since being put up on 02/05
seems... significant to me
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 1 March 2012 06:18 (twelve years ago) link
significant how? is that way more or way less than his recent tapes or his earlier classics or what?
― DNRIYHM NATION 1814 (some dude), Thursday, 1 March 2012 14:12 (twelve years ago) link
it's a lot... three times as much as any other mixtape on datpiff for february, already one of the 30 most downloaded mixtapes in the history of the site
the numbers are a bit skewed since it was an "exclusive" to datpiff but for comparison the t.i. mixtape was posted on new year's day and has 245k downloads
the ross mixtape was posted on 1/6 and has 680k downloads
anyway i guess i have no idea if any of that means anything, just thought that a gucci mane mixtape in 2012 having 300k downloads in a month was a big number
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 1 March 2012 15:00 (twelve years ago) link
yeah it seemed like a big # but i didn't know what the basis of comparison was -- already almost twice as many downloads as Writings On The Wall 2 so definitely seems like building momentum
still haven't heard this tape yet, are any songs jumping off as hits or something?
― DNRIYHM NATION 1814 (some dude), Thursday, 1 March 2012 15:58 (twelve years ago) link
i don't think so... just seems like a lot of hype around the tape in general
the leaks were strong and his people actually did a good job of building it up as a big comeback record
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 1 March 2012 16:04 (twelve years ago) link
no gucci comeback will ever be complete without a series of youtubes detailing his facial tattoo removal surgeries
― DNRIYHM NATION 1814 (some dude), Thursday, 1 March 2012 16:09 (twelve years ago) link
I also think Trap Back has benefited from being quite a good record, with dudes like Mike Will giving Gucci their best beats. It's probably my most listened to rap record this year, by far.

Production on this tape is off the hook.
― MikoMcha, Friday, 2 March 2012 08:37 (twelve years ago) link
the beat for 'brick fair' is gorgeous. zaytoven at his most melodic
― art dealin' thru the west coast (tpp), Friday, 2 March 2012 10:05 (twelve years ago) link
definitely. It's a great tape and the production is a huge part
― Number None, Friday, 2 March 2012 16:11 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, the beat on "Brick Fair" is insane. Gorgeous stuff from Zaytoven.
― "I know its hard to hear but I'm a Realest." (rennavate), Friday, 2 March 2012 16:36 (twelve years ago) link
Plain Jane deserves a mention as well.
