RAP MUSIC

San Francisco X Winnipeg

I recently harnessed the power of the internets to make a mixtape with a friend. I sent him a bunch of rap songs that use a sample from the Beastie Boys' The New Style because that loop is dope as fuck and wanted a mix to exist. Fortunately he had the same idea which I came to find out via this amazing technology called twitter. I sent him a few songs I had in a playlist and he put it together over a few months. Then we put it on the internet because that's what you do with music in 2011.  It's a little over 36 minutes long because we're not sure peope could take the same sample for much longer but I think it's pretty fucking fun. We got all kind of joints on it Big Tuck, OFWGKTA, Prophet Posse, Three 6 Mafia, Pill, Cool Kids, Redman, RSO, and even boring ass Talib. It's not every song over this  beat(I already got checked for the Gobots ft freeway joint being excluded) but fuck that shit, we did it because we're fucking brilliant. If you like rap music or the Internets then you should listen to it.

You can download it or stream it on Hunnicutt's soundcloud

if you want to see the tracklisting then peep my tumblr or click the fucking link for the soundcloud dumb dumb

When someone sends me an email that starts out with "Chick rapper out of Oakland. Fresh." and I see a pair of tattooed white girls with thick glasses and feather earrings, I start retching.  But damn, this shit is definitely fresh.  Just check out some of the lyrics:

Yeah you can kiss the ring but you could never touch the crown
I smoke a million swisher blunts and I ain't never coming down
Bitch you ain't no Barbie, I see you work at Arby's
Number 2, supersize, hurry up I'm starving

And

The editor, director, plus I'm my own boss, 
so posh nails fierce with the gold gloss
Which means, nobody's getting over me
I got the swag and it's puffin out my ovaries

I, for one, am glam I got to experience this song before End Times.

Fellow UA contributor Josh Constine also notes:

Unlike most of today's rap lyrics, "Gucci Gucci" discusses Bay Area staples that didn't exist in the G-Funk era. With name checks of Twitter, Google, and Adderall (you know, so kids can study hard, get into one of those elite universities, and score a job at these tech companies), Kreayshawn reformats hip hop cliches about drugs and success. The jam is clearly for a modern audience that are more likely to be in the age range of Eazy-E's illegitimate children than his fans.

Full lyrics at the top of the comments, because yer deaf.

whole song is built around a loop of arcade fire's best track ever and shit works. Lots of shots along geary on the edge of the TL. This is easily the best track on The Jealous Guys' new mixtape (the love mixtape).
