Fair enough, however on one of the shows I work on I'm part of the producing team and responsible for booking muscial guest appearances so I've had to go through a lot of mainstream and obsure artisit and two of the coworkers I asked are actors/singers who have videos playing on MTV and they even haven't heard of him. So I guess he's only known in the non mainstream rap circles?
hahaha yeah his music is too retarded to be "indy rap" and too unknown to be "Mainstream". He's stuck in that shitpile in between lol
not to really add to the converstation but i stopped following rap completely as of a few yrs ago, and ive heard of him.
i dont go to clubs where they play his music, i dont listen to the radio, i dont have friends that listen to him, and im pretty sure i wouldnt recognize any of his songs.
i guess hes one of those artists that get some club play or something that the kids are listening to these days.
Radric Davis[1] (born February 12, 1980),[2] better known by his stage name Gucci Mane, is an American rapper. He debuted in 2005 with Trap House and followed with albums such as Hard to Kill in 2006, Trap-A-Thon and Back to the Trap House in 2007. In 2009, his second studio album The State vs. Radric Davis was released. Gucci Mane has released many other mixtapes as well.
While serving a six-month jail term for assault in late 2005, Davis was charged with murder, though the charges were later dropped due to a lack of evidence. In 2009, he served a year-long prison term for violating probation for his 2005 assault conviction.
“The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place... and I don´t care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently, if you let it. You, me or nobody, is gonna hit as hard as life. But ain't about how hard you hit... It's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward... how much you can take, and keep moving forward. That´s how winning is done. Now, if you know what you worth, go out and get what you worth.” - Rocky Balboa
So what does the ice cream cone mean? According to Gucci's spokesperson Kali Bowyer, the image is "a reminder to fans of how he chooses to live his life. Cool as ice. As in 'I'm so icy, I'll make ya say Brr.'" Bowyer tells Rolling Stone that the ice cream cone design was also used for a medallion that Gucci has worn for years and can be seen in most of the photos making the rounds on the internet today.
after Jeezy made an appearance on Gucci's "Icey", Jeezy was never paid as promised for his services. Jeezy then released a diss track on the instrumental of T.I.'s ASAP entitled Stay Strapped. In the song, Jeezy puts a 10 stack bounty on Gucci's "so icey" chain. When Pookie Loc, an amatuer aspiring rapper on Jeezy's CTE label broke into Gucci's house to steal the chain, Gucci shot and killed him. He was arrested, but was later aquitted on self defense.
How is this news? Have you people lost your ability to judge others based on how they act, look and behave.
I mean sure, theres a fine line between "he's got a tatto, hes a criminal" and judging someone based on their character ..but..
When I see him I can tell right away that he's a stupid piece of shit that will not benefit society in any way. In fact, If my son or daughter ever listen to this guy, I will beat them without mercy.

it's barely keeping afloat,i stopped playing rap year's ago & haven't even purchased a cd in year's that the music has turned into such shit,none of it deserves your money,they can make their 1 million by selling ringtone's for all i care.
The guys rap name is Gucci Mane. Shouldn't that say enough? An ice cream cone to make people say 'brr' is apparently as creative as this guy gets. Who gives a shit what this simpleton does to his face. Posted via RS Mobile
