It’s not just the subject matter - the inspiration he got from his time inside. The video shows Zay, Mike Will, Guwop and one of his most successful protégés Young Thug in the midst of a pool party/recording session.Īnd indeed, the post-jail music of the newly fit, de-grilled and bearded Gucci suggests a vitality that’s missing from a lot of the music he released just before and during his stint in Indiana. “Guwop Home,” another strong post-prison release with a celebratory video to match, finds Zay collaborating with one of Gucci’s other most important collaborators, ATL-trap-stape-cum- Miley-Cyrus-collaborator Mike Will Made-It. With a Zaytoven beat boasts ominous synth bursts that could have come off a Gucci mixtape track from the late ‘00s, it feels like an inspired exploration of the DNA of the now-veteran producer’s chemistry with the rapper. The song, like several of the other tracks Gucci’s d since being released just seven weeks ago, seems to incorporate elements of his past styles. He then calls out all of the powers that kept him from saying it for almost three years, when he - one of the most influential rappers ever to emerge from the city of Atlanta - was locked up in a federal penitentiary in Indiana. “I can’t even sleep, I got so much to say,” begins the intro track from Gucci Mane’s upcoming album, Everybody Looking, due out this Friday.
