DJ MK and Shortee Blitz of KISS100 out in the UK chop it up with Preemo and Blaq Poet. They talk about his work on Illmatic, Biggie’s shots at Nas on “Kick In The Door” and how he stopped the tape when he heard Big call out him, Jeru and Afu Ra. Recording “One Day” with Jeru, and the time his MPV got stolen while he was visiting Rikers.
I mean Bobby Ray… ah I’ll say it next time, besides he said B.o.B. was ok.
Atlanta’s Radric “Gucci Mane” Davis may not be a household name, but chances are he soon will be. Almost four years after he released his debut, Trap House, Gucci is more popular than he’s even been, and his star is rising.
Gucci has a catalog of songs that have been tearing up the streets for months. “Bricks,” “Photo Shoot,” “Shirt Off” and “Stoopid” and the “Make the Trap Say Aye” remix are just some of the titles. Some call him the hottest in the ‘hood right now.
…
“I can’t say he hasn’t been hot for quite some time and he hasn’t had a cult following,” mixtape king DJ Drama testified. He linked up with Gucci for the popular street CD The Movie last year. “He’s just somebody that the ‘hood could relate to. He’s on fire in Georgia, he’s on fire in the Midwest. Detroit. Cincinnati or Columbus, Ohio. Pittsburgh. It’s different areas where the guy is crazy and [his music] is starting to bubble everywhere. Last year Gucci was the man of the mixtapes. If it was 50 [Cent] one year, then [Young] Jeezy one year and Wayne one year, it was Gucci last year. He was on the cover of every single tape. That’s when I know that’s the person that every market is paying attention to.” read the rest @ MTVNews.com
