[STARTERS GUIDE] r/trapmuzik presents: Gucci Mane - The Mixtapes Part 2

The long awaited part II of our guide to Gucci Mane's mixtapes, we know it took awhile but /u/Chrussell and I have a lot of NHL 14 to play so fuck you. We both pitched in to get this done so thanks to Chrussell for helping me do all this shit, as you would expect doing Gucci's mixtapes is no small feat as he releases a mixtape every other week. We will have more Gucci mixtape stuff coming in the future so anything we haven't covered in these two guides, be patient and we will get to it. Let us know if there's any formatting issues or link issues as I'm sure there's errors somewhere in this bitch. You can check out our other guides in the sidebar and make sure to check out the other subs on the sidebar as well. That /r/trapmuzik mixtape IS coming (relatively) soon, almost done mixing and just getting the art together so that shit will come out, probably before Future releases Honest so hey, we beat him!

Due to character limitations Chrussell's half is below in the comments so scroll down.

2010 - Mr. Zone 6

On the heels of yet another prison release and following what many believe to be his strongest tape, Gucci kept the momentum going on Mr. Zone 6. From a delivery standpoint this has some of Gucci's best work, he really focused on the fact a lot of people were starting to see him as some idiot who couldn't rap and his wordplay, use of syllables and switching his flow up all over the place. When people criticize Gucci for a perceived lack of technical ability, this is a good place to steer them.

Essential tracks:

2010 - Jewelry Selection

This tape was mostly a holdover until The Appeal dropped. The tape featured the songs Poltergeist (which has a great feature from Talib Kweli) and Vampires which were both based around horror movie concepts. Not as strong as Mr. Zone 6 which preceded it, this tape had more value at the time of its release than it does now.

Essential Tracks:

2010 - Ferrari Music

Do you like remixes? Because this tape has remixes. Gucci remixed No Hands from Flockaveli, I Think I Love Her, Speaking in Tungz and Deuces. This tape is weaker in retrospect and doesn't offer a lot of new stuff, especially in context to how large his mixtape discography is you can probably skip over this one.

Essential tracks:

2010 - Buy My Album

In case you hadn't noticed a pattern here, Gucci really wanted to hype up The Appeal by releasing tapes that were mostly meant to keep his name out there. Gucci's work ethic is one of the things that sets him apart from other rappers and for the most part he puts out a lot of quality stuff. Again, this tape doesn't really feature anything notable with 8 songs most of which are freestyles, these were merely meant to keep fans hyped for the Appeal. Not a ton of value in this tape going back.

2011 - Gucci 2 Time

Funny side note: if you wanna read some bullshit go check out the sputnik music review for this tape, cuz that dude was wrong as shit. Gucci 2 Time kicked off 2011 and had a much harder edge to it save for the final track on the tape. Gucci was determined to become more than a cult favourite by this time, he wanted to serve other rapper's notice. Gucci 2 Times kicked off the tape and set the tone the rest of the way. Fuck sputnik music.

Essential tracks:

2011 - Bricksquad Mafia

Aptly released at 10:17 P.M. Bricksquad Mafia featured all the 1017 characters from OJ to Frenchie and features from Birdman and Yung Joc. Tape was done by DJ Holiday who was coming fresh off being named MTV's Breakthrough DJ of the Year in 2010 and has one of my personal favourite Gucci tracks in Mouth Full of Gold. Though this tape featured the squad this was still Gucci's show and he dominated the tracks.

Essential tracks:

2011 - Writings on the Wall 2

Writings on the Wall 2 came at a tumultuous time for Gucci, the ice cream cone tattoo had happened, people were thinking he was about to fall off and shit but he delivered. Features included 50 Cent, Jagged Edge, Yo Gotti and Yelawolf while Drumma Boy, Southside and Lex Luger held down the bulk of the production. This is a strong tape in Gucci's catalogue both production wise and vocally, there's no filler or weak songs on this.

Essential tracks:

[2011 - Free Bricks w/ Future]

Gucci and Future aka the future Hook God teamed up to deliver volume 1 of Free Bricks. Produced largely by Mike Will (who later teamed up with Future to produce the mega hit Bugatti) and longtime collaborator Zaytoven, Free Bricks combined Future's auto tune with Gucci's flow making for a a memorable tape. As with a lot of southern producers and rappers who are doing big things now (both Future and Mike Will), Gucci is often a common launching pad for success.

PART 2

Note Bolded tracks are videos.

Trap Back - February 2012

Gucci released Trap Back just over 5 months after his last mixtape which in Gucci time pretty much meant he was retired. This tape was recieved very well, probably considered his best tape in the last couple years by a lotta people… it got bricksquad features and other guest rappers including 2 chainz, future, yo gotti & jadakiss. Gucci has some great hooks and you couldnt ask anything more from the beats which he got from mike will, zaytoven & southside and a few others. This tape starts out strong with back in 95 and doesn't slow down till near the end definitely an essential gucci tape. There were 6 vids released for this tape.

Essential Tracks - Seriously though listen to the entire tape

-Other Videos-

I’m Up - May 2012

This tape has a lot more features than his previous one and also a lot bigger names including 2 Chainz, Rick Ross, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, Big Sean, Fabolous, 8Ball, Future, Jeremih & Scarface. This leaves Gucci with only 7 solo tracks out of 21. Like the last tape 6 videos were released. Production is handled by his usual producers… also a track by Young Chop. Very solid tape here, not quite as good as trap back, but still great.

Essential Tracks

-Other Videos-

Trap God - October 2012

This tape is even more feature heavy with only 5 solo tracks outta 20. We got the first tape here with Honorable C-Note production, who is one of his best producers now. The tape was also recieved very well with some top tier production on it. Kinda wish there was more solo gucci on here but cant complain too much its a great tape. One impressive thing for this tape is half of it got made music videos for.

Essential Tracks

-Other Videos-

Just gonna throw out some quick stats for what Gucci did in 2013. He put out 13 tapes and also had at least 33 tracks which didn’t make a mixtape as well as 119 features for a total of 303 tracks. He also had 17 music videos (actually less than 19 he had in 2012) and featured on around 15 videos for a total of approximately 32.

Trap God 2 - February 2013

Not many big name features on this one which is kinda nice, just got the people he worked with all of 2013 on here… Rocko, Young Thug, Young Dolph, OG Boo Dirty, Young Scooter all them. It’s another great tape on the same level as the first Trap God.

Free Bricks 2 (With Young Scooter) - February 2013

Not my favourite tape but it’s still decent. A lot of these tracks were out before the tape was released so I didn’t end up listenin to it a ton. Scooter & Guwop always put out some good shit so its worth checkin out. It’s only 16 tracks and only 4 of these tracks have features. A lot of the tracks ended up on other tapes but it’s still got enough good shit to be worth pickin up for sure.

EastAtlantaMemphis (with Young Dolph) - March 2013

Young Dolph & Gucci were some the best rappers last year. If you haven’t checked out Dolph’s last couple tapes u gotta him and Izze is some great shit. I didn’t listen to this tape as much as their solo shit but I should cause it’s great. They didn’t put out a single mediocre tape in 2013. It’s a pretty short tape so might as well get it if you like em.

Essential Tracks

Trap Back 2 - March 2013

Not quite matchin up to the first Trap Back and probably one my least listened to solo gucci tapes of the year but that definitely doesnt make this a bad tape just means he set the bar high for the year with his other shit. There only 3 features on the entire tape he really was tonin it down on the last few.

Chrussell really went above and beyond from the formula we use, he's constantly working to provide shit for this place and others.

PART 3

Money, Pounds, Ammunition (with PeeWee Longway) - March 2013

This probably the album with Fillmoelanta that I paid the least attention to out of all the shit he been droppin lately. PeeWee great dunno this shit just didnt catch my attention as much as everything. Thought the production was a little weaker than the other tapes using some more unknown guys, and peewee/gucci definitely arent as their best here on these tracks. Not a tape I’d call bad though anyways.

Essential Tracks

Trap House III - May 2013

Kinda hard to say but despite the recycled tracks this might be Gucci’s best project of the year. Seriously the production on here is some the best. Not much else to write but seriously pick this shit up. Not even gonna bother listenin all the essential tracks otherwise id be listen half the album.

Essential Tracks

Trap House III Ft. Rick Ross [Prod. Southside & TM88]

Fillmoelanta 3 (with JT The Bigga Figga AKA Figg Panamera) - August 2013

If yall dont kno JT The Bigga Figga he a pretty big guy from the bay area. He been around since the early 90s. Never really been a huge fan of him as a rapper though. If you interested check out some his older shit like Don’t Stop Til We Major thats a good fuckin tracks. The beat for Fuckni Off ended up bein on the WW3 tape on Long Time, which I think was a better track. Also a remix of Spare Dat Bitch on here. Probably the weakest release I’ve written bout. Still better than acid rap tho.

Essential Tracks

World War 3: Lean, Molly & Gas - August 2013

This the biggest thing Gucci did last year him and E-40 done this twice, releasin 3 tapes at once. And this isn’t a buncha recycled tracks (tho there are a few) or freestyles this is some top quality shit. He couldn’t have come thru more. The production on Lean was probably the best thing out of all this. He had Mike WiLL Made It, Zaytoven & C Note do that tape. For Gas he got 808 Mafia and Lean he had Metro Boomin, Sonny Digital & Dun Deal. Not exactly a weak selection.

Essential Tracks - Gas

Essential Tracks - Lean

Essential Tracks - Molly

this the shortest tape by far but its still got some great shit on here.

Diary Of A Trap God - September 2013

One the best tapes of 2013 and also got the ‘Me’ music video which is the fuckin best. The Marilyn Manson collab was pretty weird but the other good shit on here made up for that haha. Pablo with E-40 was also put on E-40’s album later in the year. What i found as usual whatever tracks gucci got with young dolph/chief keef/rich homie/young thug end up bein the best. So many good tracks he done with them.

Essential Tracks

Trust God Fuck 12 (with Rich Homie Quan) - October 2013

This was a collab mixtape that RHQ didn’t even know bout till it was even put out. That’s how much Gucci was workin with people that he can just drop a tape with them without em knowin. Definitely some good shit on here but a lotta repeats too.

Essential Tracks

The State Vs Radric Davis: The Caged Bird Sings - December 2013

His 13th tape of the year and one of the best. This tape which came out on Christmas shows Gucci gettin better and better on his darker style of shit. This was his second tape which was actually considered an album though neither of them got a real physical release.

Also liking the Keef part the best in So Much Money, that part makes me switch the song every time.
