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 – My Own Worst Enemy (prod. Drumma Boy)
A hot new Gucci Mane song called “My Own Worst Enemy” produced by Drumma Boy for the album “The State vs. Radric Davis” was released as a follow-up single to “Spotlight.” The song was spread around on the internet on November 12, 2009 from Miss Info, who recently interviewed Gucci. This record is really deep and addresses much of what he has experienced as an artist. If you are a true Gucci Mane fan, you should really appreciate this track because he really lays his emotions out on the line. The production on this joint is banging from start to finish thanks to Drumma Boy. This is definitely one of the most serious cuts that Radric Davis has ever created for the people. If you have been following him from the beginning, you should be able to understand what he is rapping about.
In fact, most people will notice that this track is so serious that there is not even a “BURR” included. With this track, Gucc said that he has grown and matured a lot as a person and wants his fans to be able to enjoy and better understand him on this track. In an interview with Miss Info, she asked whether this track was directed towards Young Jeezy with a title like “My Own Worst Enemy.” Gucci said that this track is not particularly aimed at anyone, he just wants to provide people with perspective. She asked him, “Is this your way of posing a truce?” Gucci kept it one hundred percent real during the entire interview and said, “No.” If you watch the full interview, he talks about his life, struggles, and how he always wanted to be successful.
You can really learn a lot about how he was feeling by taking the time to listen to this song. This joint makes for a great follow up song. His street-oriented fans will definitely be able to relate to what he’s saying on this song. On the chorus he talks about how “first Tupac died, then Biggie died, then history repeated itself for me and I made history.” He says, “pick a spot to beef with me and that spot I will meet you at, but let me check my schedule, I’m free Tuesday three weeks from now.”

“The day they tried to murder me, the day I can’t forget about, and I don’t wish no death on homie, just want him to hear me out, think about the best and all the many things we talked about, think of all the people that influenced about what comes out our mouth.” The chorus says, “I’m my best friend and I’m my worst enemy, and no one else can hurt me unless I let them, bitch you feelin me?” Definitely a powerful track right here for Gucci Mane, so be sure to check the video above and see what you think. Be sure to purchase a copy of his album “The State vs. Radric Davis.”
