Gucci Mane & 50 Cent – Recently (Official)
Gucci Mane (Radric Davis) and 50 Cent (Curtis Jackson) link up for a classic 2011 hip hop track called “Recently” and you better believe that it’s fire. The track is so good that there probably should be a video that drops for it, but both are really busy people so it’s doubtful as of now. With that said, both of these artists respect the grind of each other and their ability to break forward with new trends in the music industry. Some were surprised that these two never have had any beef and that 50 Cent worked with Gucci for this one, but he recognizes the fact that Gucci Mane is arguably the most popular talent in the industry right now.
This was not only a good way to get some of 50 Cent’s fans to listen to more Gucci, but it got some Gucci supporters to listen to 50 to see if he could bring that heat for the streets. There’s no arguing who had the hotter verse because it’s all personal preference. The chorus is hot from start to finish, the verses are hot from start to end, and there was some awesome production. The video below allows you to listen to the track through 50 Cent’s official YouTube channel.
Gucci Mane & 50 Cent – Recently (Official Listen)
The chorus goes: “I just bought a drop just recently, I killed the parking lot just recently, I just bought a whip just recently, I made another flip just recently, I just bust a check just recently, I bust a bad bitch just recently, I’m screamin out who want a piece of me, I just got a deal just recently.” The best part about this track was not only that it was an unexpected collaboration between two heavyweights in the game, but it dropped unexpectedly as well; nobody except these artists knew when it was coming.
There were a couple of questions about this track that were asked including: Why did this track come out? Is it going to be on one of their future albums or anything? As of now, the people will have to wait and see, but the probability of it appearing on an album is doubtful. 50 Cent released the track to show what he had in the stash for his fans lying around to promote his SMS Audio Headphones. Now apparently his headphone line got discontinued or shelved due to changes in the market. Anyways, check out the track above and see what you think!

Gucci Mane – Show Me Something
Since there is not a “No DJ” version of this song or “CDQ,” it means that “Show Me Something” my forever remain a mixtape track. If you don’t know much about the mixtape process, an artist like Gucci Mane records a bunch of songs. After he is finished recording and decides what he wants to be featured on his tape, he finds a DJ (like Drama) and has him do “DJ drops.” By using “drops” it sets the material up to be used only for promotional purposes. Having a DJ also is good because if they are good (like DJ Drama), fans like their drops and are able to really experience a good mixtape. If you don’t yet have the song “Show Me,” be sure to check it out and get it if you find it enjoyable.
