Gucci Mane – Trap Or Die 2 (Remix) f. Young Jeezy (prod. Zaytoven)
The new song “Trap Or Die 2 Remix” hit the internet as a leak for Young Jeezy’s album “Thug Motivation 103” on October 20, 2009. Anyways, time passes and on Thanksgiving Day – November 26, 2009 a version of “Trap Or Die 2” featuring Gucci Mane hits the internet. Gucci’s verse was not previously released, but a lot of people are speculating many different things about this. Since they have obviously had a lot of past beef after making the song “So Icy” together, many people do not know what to think. In case you didn’t know, this song was produced by Zaytoven (yes, Gucci’s main producer began working with Young Jeezy as well).
Nobody is quite sure what the deal was with the release of this track. Most people familiar with Atlanta and southern rap music want the beef between Young Jeezy and Gucci Mane to end. They both have a lot of fans and are capable of making hits – both have had to put their talent to the test. What’s the deal with the “Trap Or Die 2 Remix?” Was it approved by Young Jeezy and is it official? Most people think that it is an “unofficial remix,” but who knows. What are a few things that could have happened? Well, a DJ could have gotten one of Gucci’s unreleased tracks or freestyles and blended the verse into the song perfectly, but this is probably not what happened.
What likely happened is that Gucci Mane spit a verse over the “Trap Or Die 2” instrumental (since it was produced by Zaytoven) and it just got added to Young Jeezy’s version and leaked online. Whether this was an official remix or not, it still was straight up fire from Gucci, his flow was incredible. Jeezy laces the chorus, “trappin ain’t dead, niggas just scared, niggas just playin, y’all don’t want no bread, everybody in the game say they trap like you, I’ll go against the grain this is Trap Or Die 2.”

Gucci Mane drops some crazy lines like: “Dominican thugs, Dominican plugs, shootin up drugs like Sammy Sosa” as well as, “black tee black gloves and my black socks, I’ll take some blow from your whoa call that Black Rob.” Gucci shows his skill on this track by showing everybody what he’s capable of doing with his lyrical delivery. Both artists do their thing, but it would be nice to have a clarification as to whether this was just a freestyle, an official remix, and/or whether the two Atlanta rappers have squashed their beef (in case you were not aware of the beef, see the song “745 (Jeezy Diss)” that was created back when they had animosity). A lot of people want this beef to end and have high hopes for the two artists to do the right thing.
Gucci Mane – Get That Dough f. Kafani & Dorrough (prod. Zaytoven)
A new track by Kafani has been circulating through the streets with a hot chorus contributed by Gucci Mane called “Get That Dough” and a guest verse by Dorrough. The song was produced by Zaytoven and also has a hot verse from Gucci Mane as well as the artist Dorrough (well known for the song “Ice Cream Paint Job”). The chorus repeats, “on your marks get set go get that dough, go go, go go, I bet a hundred grand I’m for sho gon win, go go, go go, on your marks get set go get that cash, go go, go go, so icey CEO le the games begin, go go, go go.” After Gucci drops his verse, Kafani drops some heat for the masses.
What makes this track so solid is the fact that you got Zaytoven on the beat, with hot verses from each of the artists. Whenever the Gucc Mane is going to be on the chorus, it’s easy to tell that the track is going to be a banger. A lot of people are not very familiar with this joint due to the fact that it was released in 2009 as a single for Kafani, but it has been building a pretty big buzz in the streets. Gucci has said that he is trying to collaborate with a lot of different artists in order to see if he likes the direction that it takes him.
In an interview done 2009 with Ms. Info, he said that he was encouraged to try to collaborate with a bunch of different dudes, whether they are upcoming artists or well established artists. This is why you have seen him on tracks like “Pretty Girls f. Wale” and other joints like “Krazy f. Game & Timbaland.” He told Ms. Info that collaborating is actually something that he ended up enjoying and it helped him gain new fans that may have not previously known his work. It’s always good to have people discovering Gucci Mane and understanding his music.

Tracks like “Get That Dough,” are able to demonstrate that he has plenty of street appeal; especially in the south. Zaytiggy always kills the instrumental, so you know that anything produced by him is going to be an instant hit. As more people are starting to get exposure to this track, they are realizing that it’s an awesome track. The official music video for the “Get That Dough” track features Dorrough, but Gucci Mane’s verse was excluded and he did not make an appearance, although he still is featured in the chorus. The video was directed by Ben Griffin and was released on Ice King Music. There are two versions of this song, be sure to also take a listen to the one with Gucci’s verse.
