So I started writing the new Flop City and it featured a different artist and right when I was about to get it posted the boogeyman of Rap decides to act foolish. Hip-Hop is very unpredictable and I’m glad I waited on posting the other Flop City because the one who truly deserves it is this idiot. From getting dropped from his label just by tweeting to disrespecting every respected person in the industry this fool Gucci Mane let things get to his head. Not to mention the recent flopped music that he’s constantly releasing. Check out what I got to say about this man after the jump.
Ok first let’s start off with the music since that’s what the main focus of Flop City is then we will talk about his recent cry for attention. Gucci Mane is known for dropping a lot of mixtapes recently but let’s be honest none of them are catching anyone’s attention. He released on with Young Scooter entitled “Free Bricks 2″ and it barely pulled in 100k downloads. The only thing he managed to do is break out his artist Young Scooter which in a surprising way he is good at doing. Young Scooter started catching some buzz with his single “Columbia” but then he had to serve a sentence and that quickly died out.
The next mixtape he dropped this year was “Trap Back 2″ which also didn’t get much love from the streets either. The mixtape did 250k in downloads but that didn’t crossover to any hit tracks from the mixtape at all. Not to mention Gucci shot like thousands of videos for tracks off all these mixtapes and it didn’t help him one bit. In the meantime of releasing all of these mixtapes he decides to announce his new album “Trap House 3″ which was released digitally only. The marketing for this album was the complete worse. First off, if you’re “Gucci Mane” one of the south’s “legends” you should be able to release an album in stores too not just digitally because anyone can drop a digital album. The album had no hit singles whatsoever, the album lacked any good music, any music with substance, overall a terrible project to a legendary series.
The album was released digitally and the official first week numbers were 2,500 copies the first week. With that being said if I was an artist with his stature I would be finding out a new way to promote myself so what does Gucci Mane do? Starts more beef. Controversy sells right? Wrong for Gucci at least. I’m done talking about the music now, because clearly this man has fell off the face of the Earth with his music.
So let’s get to the stupid man’s way of crying for attention. Awhile back Gucci Mane decided to take shots at some of the South’s biggest rappers like T.I. and Young Jeezy. Not only did Jeezy and T.I. ignore him but they also made him look like he’s crying to be heard. Fast forward to Monday on September 9th he decides to go on a Twitter rampage and disrespects everybody from the South which includes Young Jeezy, Waka Flocka, T.I., French, 2 Chainz and many more. He also disrespects Nicki Minaj and claimed he had sex with her. On top of all of that he disrespects the record label he’s signed to which is Atlantic Records. The most foolish thing is after this rant of how he hates everyone in the industry ended, he claimed he got “hacked”.
Gucci Gucci Gucci if you’re going to say all these horrible things about these people in the industry don’t claim you got “hacked” own up to the fact that you’re mad at everyone. The sad part about this whole thing is Nicki Minaj and Tyga denied Gucci Mane’s request for a feature and that’s the main reason Gucci decided to disrespect Nicki Minaj and Tyga. Tyga proceeded to show the text messages of Gucci asking him for a feature and him nicely declining it. For Gucci to get mad over that is some childish sh*t, then you go and disrespect Nicki Minaj and say you have sex with her over getting denied a feature? C’mon man. The funniest part about this whole thing is that nobody in the industry responded over Twitter, everyone besides Yo Gotti was an adult about the whole situation.
Now now let stop ranting any further, I’m gonna end it with this. Mr. Ice Cream cone face need stop crying for attention. It’s taking away from his “Legend” stature that he has. Gucci should just stop making music for awhile, rethink what kind of music he is making and just stay on the low for about two years. I think this will make people forget about the stupid stuff he’s done and when he comes back he should come back with an album not 10 mixtapes that most people don’t care about. I will give Gucci Mane credit for something though, he knows how to find artists and bread them into stars. From Future to Nicki Minaj to Waka Flocka he’s made a lot of the artists you see today hot. Focus on making good music from now on Gucci and leave the beef alone because it’s not helping you at all. You sold 2,000 copies of your last album, clearly it didn’t work. Now I want to end it off with a video of Charlamagne speaking on Gucci Mane, it’s a hilarious video and speaks the truth about Gucci Mane.
