February 24, 2010 by GuestPoster · Leave a Comment
The artist Gucci Mane comes from the south; he was born in Alabama, but grew up living most of his life in Georgia. He has moved throughout the southern United States and has formed many good relationships with other musicians in his area. If you take a listen to most of his music, you will find that he likes to represent most of Atlanta because it has a lot of people that support his movement. His story is fascinating to hear from an outside perspective; he was a person that went from “rags to riches.” In other words, he did not have much money growing up and now has enough to be considered financially free.
When he first got interested in music, he was busy writing poetry. He was a true poet at heart and really had fun making phrases rhyme from an early age. Fortunately, he had a very supportive family and was encouraged to go after what he believed in. A lot of people these days have their dreams crushed by people telling them that they should do something else. His heart and mind was clearly focused on making music through his poetry. Since he started listening to rap music (which involved rhyming), he was able to start writing some of his own material.
In the early days, when he was just starting to make music, he got his friend and producer, Zaytoven to give him some beats. The two had so much fun working together and really believed in each other the entire time. Due to the fact that they got a lot of support from each other, they were able to motivate each other to always do better. They both saw potential in each other to become superstars. Since they started, they have released hundreds of Gucci Mane songs through mixtapes and albums. This just goes to show you that as long as you believe in yourself, you can make your dreams come true.
