Atlanta’s Radric “Gucci Mane” Davis may not be a household name, but chances are he soon will be. Almost four years after he released his debut, Trap House, Gucci is more popular than he’s even been, and his star is rising.

Gucci has a catalog of songs that have been tearing up the streets for months. “Bricks,” “Photo Shoot,” “Shirt Off” and “Stoopid” and the “Make the Trap Say Aye” remix are just some of the titles. Some call him the hottest in the ‘hood right now.

“What makes me the hottest MC right now is that I got that flavor,” Gucci said on the Atlanta video set of OJ Da Juiceman‘s “Make the Trap Say Aye” remix, with a grin that showed off a bottom row of teeth covered in gold. “It ain’t all about your swag. I got them spices. I’m seasoning it real well for these folk.”

    Yeah, Gucci is next up. I been listening to him since So Icey. Gucci is real unlike Lil Wayne who’s fake and a follower. I want Gucci to blow up nationally. Because real street music needs to comeback to the mainstream. Not that bs Lil Wayne and these other gimmicks make.

    But Gucci Mane is whack and really cheezy with his songs…the whole dope boy image is played out and has been played out for a while and if u think thats not being like everyone else then you are mistaken….and plz dnt get it twisted im not saying im a weezy fan at all…but hey to each they own

    Well, C-Lethal, if the whole “dope boy” image is played out then some of your favorite rappers are in trouble. Name one artist who doesn’t display that image. I can name a bunch. Cam’ron, Rick Ross, and even UGK.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/00_Queen_Bee_00/ 00_Queen_Bee_00

    He’s alright but his lyrics suck, but hey he has plenty of supporters who can relate to his music. But next rap superstar? I think not his raps are gonna need a little bit more substance.

    This aricle was kind of confusing to me. Where I’m from we bump Gucci everywhere in our cars clubs and houses. And I love the fact you dont really here him on the radio like that. He’s just know becoming a star but everyone here knows who he is ? Well everyone I know. I’m from Cleveland. It might be some lames out there that act like they dont know who he is, but foreal you know whats up.

    GUCCI BEATS ARE SICK IM NO HATA BUT HE NEED TO UP HIS LYRICAL CONTENT….BE MORE OPEN TO OTHER SUBJECTS OTHER THAN DRUGS

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/htownizroudy/ htownizroudy

    All I gotta say about this for several reasons:

    1. Gucci Manes’ music is the hottest thing around black neighborhoods even tho Young Jezzy alright to

    2. His first supporting record labal “big cat records” involves around good artist like Black Magic

    3. His beats are off the chain that are mainly produced by Zaythoven or OJ Juice Man.

    4. Ppl say his lyrics are dumb others say they alright. But I look at it as funny and tight especially when he sound waisted coming with unique things

    5. His Albums are alright mainly the first one “trap house”. But I insist getting his mixtapes mainly the “Wilt Chamberlins Volumes” as I got 1-5 and four others like “So Icy Boys” but I know he got like 20+ cause he always coming out with dymn new one lol

    So last I got to say is that he freestyles and writes non-stop. As he signs good artist to his personal label

    my opinion young jeezy is way better then gucci mane. soulja boi n gucci mane probly related LMAO dis da same nigga that slap one chick? but couldnt fight jeezy??

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/a_tall_romantic/ a_tall_romantic

    Yeah Gucci is NOT lyrical or even raps about anything meaningful but in rap (notice I said rap not hip-hop) in rap that doesn’t seem to matter anymore anyways. You don’t have to have subject matter, look at Lil Wayne, yeah he nice w/his flow but don’t rap about s**t, he has punch lines so people consider him good, but he has no subject matter, tell me anything on his CD that has a title and he rapped about the title of the song? (silence) but anyways, back to it, Gucci, for some reason, in the hood get MUCH respect, every club you go in they bumppin his s**t, every Black strip club, strippers dancin to his s**t and every time you pull up to a light or even in a gas station people bumpin Gucci (or OJ Da Juiceman) so on a hood level yeah they love his ass I don’t get it but maybe its not for me to get. So as far as “trap music” yeah he the next nigga to blow. (and yes Jeezy is way better a rapper, but Gucci is what’s hotter right now in the hood, not Jeezy)

    I’m tired of hearing rappers on the radio that make black men sound as if we have a first grade education. It aint about him being from the south either…he’s garbage. plenty of lyrical MC’s murdering the Mic that have actual talent…I guess gucci is what Lupe meant when he wrote that song “dumb it down”. Hell Im from cali but I would rather bring NY back then hear this manufactured crack.
