Following the video for “Free Enterprise” and the release of “Kyrie” a few days ago, Rick Ross returns to “Buy Back the Block”with Gucci Mane and 2 Chainz.

The trio all rap over the bass-heavy, trappy instrumental about how they plan to clean up the ghetto by buying back the hood one block at a time. The video was shot a couple weeks ago in Atlanta and made headlines with shots being fired at the location.

Expect the video soon, as well as Rick Ross’ upcoming, debut album under Epic Records.

QUOTABARZ

“We wow the world with black magnificence / A symphony for the divine and we the instruments / Black innocence.” – COMMON

“Come look into the eyes of a man named Gucci / Got me peeping out the blinds like Malcolm with the uzi / The government, the church, and the world is so polluted / They callin’ me a criminal and I’m a revolution.” – GUCCI MANE

“I confess / I’ve been part of the problem / As of lately, I’m trying to solve ’em / I sold dope and I still talk the jargon / Just like Malcolm ‘fore the X was on him.” – PUSHA T

Rae Sremmurd, Mike WiLL-Made It & Gucci Mane Land Their First No. 1 With “Black Beatles” [PEEP]

mgid-ao-image-mtv

If you’re familiar with The Beatles, you know they were one of the greatest rock bands ever. They were also the inspiration behind Rae Sremmurd’s “Black Beatles” single off their sophomore album, ‘Sremm Life 2’.

The single featuring Gucci Mane and produced by Mike WiLL-Made It, has shot up from No. 9 to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, passing The Chainsmokers for the top spot. “Black Beatles” is not only Rae Sremmurd’s first No. 1 hit, it is also Mike WiLL-Made It and Gucci Mane’s first.

Mike WiLL, whom was discovered by Gucci and ironically discovered Rae Sremmurd, shared his experience with Billboard saying, “To be able to put Gucci Mane, the person that gave me my first opportunity in music, and Rae Sremmurd, the debut artist from my [imprint, Eardrummer], on what’s both [Rae Sremmurd and Gucci Mane’s] biggest record ever, and the first Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 for both, is something I could have never imagined or dreamed of.”

It is worth noting that the recent Mannequin Challenge viral frenzy has helped the song jump up eight spots and contributed to sales and streams.

Gucci Mane Announces New Album

gucci-mane-east-atlanta-santa

Gucci Mane just dropped his second album of the year ‘Woptober’ last week. Today, the Atlanta rapper announced he’s readying ‘The Return of East Atlanta Santa’, which will be his third album release this year.

‘The Return of East Atlanta Santa’ is the third of a previous mixtape series. The first ‘East Atlanta Santa’ dropped in 2014, while the second followed in 2015.

Gucci said in an interview with Hot97 that he “likes the young kids” when it comes to making new music. So, we can probably expect names like “21 Savage, Young M.A. … Anything that’s hot. Lil Uzi Vert, Lil Yachty…”

Guwop has set December 16th as the release date for the new album. Keep it locked for any updates.
