More about the artist
Gucci Mane, whose original name is Radric Davis, started his career as a record executive. The artist has mentored American record producer Metro Boom, made a mixtape with Future, and signed Migos and Young Thug in 2012. He is known to have fronted a subgenre of trap music with Atlanta-based rappers, including TI and Young Jeezy, in the early 2000s and 2010s.
Mane often referred to as the Avatar of East Atlanta, is famous for being an influential underground rapper of the 2000s. In a 2021 interview with Billboard, Gucci Mane said:
“I never got into music thinking, ‘I’m going to be this rapper and just chase this solo career.’ It was like, ‘Let’s all put our heads together to help [each other].’ It takes a village to do anything. You need that community.”
In 2017, Gucci was sent to prison for two years after pleading guilty to possessing a firearm by a convicted felon. The artist re-emerged as a healthier version of himself and released several hit projects. Shortly after he was released, Gucci Mane, in an interview with XXL Magazine, said:
“I think my career has been a bunch of ups and downs but I think it’s a resilient comeback story. I’m proud of the person I am now. I am so proud that I went through all this stuff and I am still here.”
Apart from his new album, his recent work includes his 2020 compilation album titled So Icy Summer, followed by the album So Icy Gang Vol. 1, which he released on his label 1017 Records.
