"They on Gucci and Jeezy that's weak to me!" - San Quinn. Couldnt agree more. Sucks that the quality in beats is more important than actual lyrical skills which defines being a dope MC/rapper in hip hop.

if gucci wasnt fuckin with Zaytoven, I wouldnt be listenin to him.....His style really suits Zay's beats.....I dont really listen to many Gucci songs in which Zaytoven is not on the keys....


But I cant say the same about Jeezy.....If Jeezy wasnt fuckin with Shawty Redd, I would still be checkin cuz he can flow to Midnight Black, Cool and Dre, Timbaland, The Runners, Don Cannon, you name the producer Jeezy comes nice on the mic....

Gucci = Tight beat, simple rhymes but well put.

ya be taking music too fucking serious.
I listen to plenty of rappers who aren't "lyrical"

I just think Gucci Mane's music is just horrible all around... he's not even tolerable to me

but that's just my opinion... not hating... listen to it if you want

I just don't get why this dude is so popular. This dude has the streets on lock here in Indianapolis.

Everywhere I go, i hear his shit and oj da juice man getting bumped.

I have heard a few joints i have (icey, brick man) but most of his shit i think is bland.

He got zaytoven on the beats and that dude brings the fire. Gucci has the beats, ill give him that.

But he doesn't really have anything else. So why all the hype and support?
zaytoven is what makes gucci and oj da juiceman

when it comes to gucci mane, i just want something heavy to slap in the ride. i don't really expect him to come with anything lyrically.

Its not like Gucci is the first mediocre rapper to be successful in sales, where the fuck have yall been living lol??? A shit load of mediocre or worse rappers have done really good numbers over the years, Gucci is nothing new.

Puffy
Master P
A lot of No Limit
Mase
Cash Money (Baby, Juve, BG, etc)
50 Cent
Hammer
Nelly
Etc
I hear ya there... but Gucci's voice, his style... just awful. I know everyone has there own opinion, but c'mon people! THis dude sounds like straight ass on EVERY track. There is no possibility in swayin' my opinion on this one... sorry.
I just hope he falls off soon so I don't have to hear that shit anymore..
If you like his shit, then more power to you for bein' able to stomach that mess..

hataaaaaas! go and get ya choppa suit

its usually someone with a failed rap career that dosent get gucci that say to themselves i could rap like that

but that wouldnt be you

thats the thing
he has appeal because he grinds his music harder than your favorite rapper does

you know the term takes money to make money

well start selling coke and put it toward your rap career
and youll have new fans too

i think the problem is you arent looking at it from a marketing standpoint and purely from a rap listeners standpoint..we have people dropping mixtapes daily weekly and monthly for free if you want dope hip hop but people will continue to go to the store and buy 'brand names' ...i dunno why its just how it is

gucci graduated high school and went to college so apparently at some point in his life he realized he was a good salesman, and thats what seperates him from those who have no appeal.

you kinda learn those traits when you try to sell drugs, much less in the south

i saw the same questions asked about nump or chingo bling or a number or other peoplenot to say gucci is a joke rapper, but he DOES realize yall think hes dumb....he just hasnt up and said it to you yet

its the 'big ass chain' theory..they do things to give you guys something to talk about at work and most are too stupid to realize that its set up to be like that

if you didnt like gucci mane you wouldnt talk about him and hed dissapear but they say not talking is the hardest thing for most people, they just gotta say some shit.
