Zone 6

I’d like to start off by saying that I am a proud East Atlanta native and a healthy product of zone 6, however I have not always been a Gucci fan. I really only started listening to his music when he released Lemonade (2009) *Produced x Bangledash*. I only liked that song then because I fuck with lemon pepper wings too. Freaky Girl (2007) wasn’t a song I could sing out-loud growing up, but as the years passed I found value in the visuals that song created. Presently, my new appreciation for hip hop/rap culture has really allowed me to take the time to understand these trap stars. He’s just an East Atlanta nigga with a body on his belt. I’m sure Gucci is really a nice guy. We all out here trying to make it. It hasn’t been 3 weeks and Gucci has tracks on tracks on tracks. He was dropping hits before he could get his first haircut. Fresh Out. The man is passionate, he has talent and drive. Being a woman of words I naturally listened carefully to the bars this Trap God blessed us with after he got out. Apart from noticing that he is one of the few rappers in history that successfully raps in 3rd person, Gucci lyrically touched me. My favorite song released so far is called Back on Road ft. Drake. Gucci speaks on dealing with drug addiction and demons, and coming out a new man but the same man. He paved the way for every trap star we listen to today. He swiftly compares his relevance to the skreets with Muhammad Ali’s relevance to boxing. They both exist as pioneers of their craft (R.I.P. Muhammad Ali). He dealt with betrayal and being left alone. One of his niggas wrote the statement on him that got him locked up according to Lyric Genius. But he emphasizes on him not holding on to the beef. Gucci knows niggas get jealous of the sauce. Gucci knows not everybody here for Gucci. But bitch don’t expect no love because he’s back. Gucci made the decision to move forward and secure his legacy. We are looking at a Legend.
