IT'S MISTER FUTURUISTIC just kidding fuck that guy

'i cut more girls than wolverine' with the beat dropping is one of my favorite moments on the tape. i also really like that part where it sounds like he says sponge bob. no idea what's he's saying though.

hope someone can fill in some of the ?s

tools that's ahead of you

has it ever occurred to you guys that a) some rappers' lyrics aren't really flattered by being typed up or read and b) gucci is one such rapper?

not really & i disagree

actually thats a lie, it has occurred to me about SOME rappers obv. but no, gucci's lyrics are awesome to type out

this track is fire http://www.zshare.net/audio/639708208f2def02/

joc/gucci/oj/minaj called "birds"

i can't make out everything but there's some amazing shit

im wilt chamberlain, charms dancin and danglin
pot, skrr-scrapin it, cookie cutters & bakeries

i blowed up, i'm blowin up them particles
gucci mane's a trapper but that question's rhetorical
go ask a oracle, better yet read an article
feds use binoculars, gucci sellin tilapia

we choppin ya, poppin ya, stand on top of ya
helicopter transferrin ya to the doctor uh

that's a good look for nikki on the hook. not that i dislike her rapping. just you can tell she has mainstream ambitions.

tho i'm hesitant to do this after deej (rightly) carved my shit up last time,
just because it's is fun to do and because i fear that otherwise these verses will just disappear into the internet ether...

it's on person, i'm one person, but i'm twerkin'
on old national, traffickin', call it networkin'
the bird chirpin', it's curb service, my pass perfect
like james worthy i dropped 40 points last thursday
but i'm wilt chamberlain, charm dancin' and danglin'
pot scrr scrapin' it, cookie cutters and bakeries
you hustlin' lazily, blow? your weight is on marginal
green kush, white cane, pill color of cardinal
i blowed up, i'm blowin' up them particles
gucci mane's a trapper but that question's rhetorical
go ask an oracle, better yet read an article
feds use binoculars, gucci sellin' tilapia
twin chopp-e-rs, poppin' ya, stand on top of ya,
helicopters transferrin' ya to the docter-a
see i'm the author of cookie cappin' and chargin' ya
while i'm burnin yay in my kitchen just like an arensal

i'm not even gonna bother putting any question marks because it's all suspect

good start

--nicci mane

i think that's pretty much 100% otm except i think it's "twin chopper ya" or "twin choppin ya"

hook is really dope too

gotta respect nikki for having the foresight to hook up with both gucci and weezy. a few blowjobs bought her like a half a decade of guaranteed blog prominence

you hustlin' lazily, slow your weight is on marginal

i think

otherwise nice work. hes killing it!!

also like to point out that joc's verse on this is at least on par w/ plenty of verses off the last clipse

gonna listen to some of this new shit tonight. not really feeling that no flow drumma boy track tbh.

"wasted" jumped 10 spots on hip hop/r&b this week (29 to 19) if anyone cares

so warner bros actually shut down cocaine blunts bcuz of his gucci mp3s ... retarded

the fuuuuck

i hope -- and i mean this sincerely -- that you dudes aren't next

oh my god

serg checked & we havent gotten any emails from them

it's a good thing that i never got around to posting a .zip file of our gucci mane top 30 like everyone in the comments asked for

this is mental, especially considering blog leaks is the only reason gucci is a big name artist these days.

well, not the only reason certainly, but it's just immeasurably counterproductive - shit like this NEVER ceases to amaze

Well I don't remember Warners having any direct influence on him blowing up. As internet is where a very large percentage of his fans lie, and people like me telling friends about the top tracks thing on sms (obv your influence much bigger here) which has influenced to buy actual mixtapes with actual monies, this just seems beyond fucking stupid. Cocaine Blunts was essentially 50% of where I got my gucci news from, as I don't read many rap blogs and like noz, so now i'll just hear about 50% less new gucci.

there's an update up on cocaine blunts now

yeah i mean - it's hard to tell even now how much blog buzz translates into real world results, but i think it's telling that nah right hasn't had a high profile label beef in a long ass time. they are leaking bp3 tracks and at the same time are almost mocking jay - they clearly aren't scared of def jam and i think it's because all major labels are now aware of nah right's influence & importance (slaughterhouse maybe an example of the contrary but dudes were pimping drake like a motherfucker before he blew up)

with something like gucci it's much harder to tell - i can certainly say that our gucci mane posts have helped mine & deej's profile more than gucci's, but on the other hand i think we - along with noz - have definitely helped to legitimize the idea of gucci mane in the critical atmosphere. would a gucci mane mixtape have gotten a review in SPIN (albeit a perfunctory one) if it wasn't for the writing on our blog & noz's blog etc? i dont know, but i like to think so. again, how much does it matter? sean fenn & tom breihan have been pretty vocal supporters of our gucci writing but it's not like you saw a gucci feature in VIBE or big gucci coverage on pitchfork. so who knows. i don't think blogs are responsible for "wasted" having a rapid ascent up the charts with literally zero promotion. i think that's from clubs and more organic real people word of mouth type thing.

all that said, this is really really really fucking stupid on warner's part because it can only help gucci, even if it's "help" that's barely above negligible. noz in particular tho.

Yes but surely 'organic real people word of mouth type thing' is coming from people hearing stuff on the internet and passing it onto friends these days? Everyone, even my dad, has their favourite place on the net to find about music; uses spotify/last.fm instead of the radio etc.

Messing with one of the big name rap bloggers who also writes for one of the two big hiphop publications who just had yr rapper on the cover = fucking, fucking stupid. It might only influence 5 percent of gucci fans, but if they are the 5 percent who tell the other 95 what to look out for

'organic real people word of mouth type thing'

there's definitely an element of that yeah, but there's def a huge element of ppl hearing them from other places - djs in clubs, radio, 'big name' mixtapes like drama stuff that ppl can & will still physically cop - i think it's easy to forget that tons of fans of big budget genres don't know shit about mp3 blogs - again, you'd think that slaughterhouse was a big fucking deal if you went by blogs, but they're pretty damn invisible in real life

we are totally in agreement tho about this whole noz thing and the idea of majors going after blogs in general

lol people supporting yr music doesn't stop it being shit. poor slaughterhouse and asher roth, it's like nah right care in the community.

:( this is really sad

I think you're underselling yourselves there Jordan which is admirable but come on! the internet, blogs and yes the occasional leak are all established parts of the game now. this is 2009 and every rapper has a twitter for christs sake xp

bare grills (tpp)

this is dope

RIP cocaine blunts, u were da best

today i heard a radio DJ basically say "everyone requesting the version of Wasted with Plies on it, please stop, we're not legally allowed to play it anymore" -- Gucci's label fucking up all over the place already

damn that's seriously fucked up

the idea of taking a good song and putting OJ Da Juiceman on it at the exact moment you think you're about to hear your favorite verse is kind of a hilariously unintentional rickroll though imo

I feel like doing a remix of "Benjamins" where the second the beat changes and Biggie's about to come in, suddenly you just hear "Ay! Ay! Ay!"

hahaha

the version climbing up the billboard charts is still the plies version tho?
