Gucci aint no mainstream artist. I can go out in the street (not the hood) and ask 10 girls if they know who Drake and Gucci are and I guarantee you 8/10 know who Drake is and maybe 2 know who Gucci is.
Where the hell do you live? In some type of polygamist Village....?
Yeah because being a Gucci fan makes you ooze credibility..Get your lame %!% out of here..Originally Posted by Big Dreams

Gucci mane's hilarious, he's that bad...yet entertaining.
Seems like gucci's alot more comfortable in his element that drake, who i see as nothing more than a product of the industry machine.

Dude has an thats currently at like 150K... we ain't talkin a studio album or mixtape and "EP" his EP is selling more than some cats albums. Plus in the long term Drake is way more marketable than Gucci Mane
May be true but I know alot of people who just know about SoundScan and not BDS or Mediabase.Originally Posted by KayCurrency

You dont need to be in the industry to know that basic info that you just stated....
Plus in the long term Drake is way more marketable than Gucci Mane
........and that's what truly matters.
Bro you don't know what you are talking about Gucci is just as hot as Drake here in freakin Kentucky. White girls everywhere know Gucci lyricsjust like Drake's. Sure Drake is more popular at the moment but Gucci is not too far off with absolutely no label push or co signers........Originally Posted by Ricardo Malta
Wait, this %$*% is still being discussed?
Those siding with Gucci...you still haven't brought a compelling argument to the table except showing white girls in the south reciting Gucci's lyrics
And somebody said take away Drake's collab with Jamie Foxx and Gucci's features would match Drakes....
Anytime Mary J and Jay come to YOU to feature on their track then you know you doin' it. And that Gucci feature on Mariah's track was a remix. She didn't even scoop him for the official single. I still don't hear the remix as much as I hear the original around the tri-state/Boston area.

Doing one song with somebody don't make you fully entrenched in the mainstream realm sir...
I will reword that, it doesnt make you mainstream. Gucci is still street buzz, the song with Carey will take him to mainstream.
Funny how im listening to Drake now...
Drake>whoever
You're getting the word "mainstream" and "buzz" mixed up..... Both artists have a ******ED buzz right now, and both are mainstream artists...Theres no argument there.
If Gucci is mainstream now and has a ******ed buzz hes miles away from Drake. In the long run who do you think people are gonna be listening to10 years from now?
If Gucci had a GREAT year then what did Drake have?Originally Posted by KayCurrency

Its not a popularity contest....Hov is more popular than both of them...but he's not in the running at all.
I like Drakes work more than Gucci's but if you look at the outlets Gucci had to work with (basically none)...he had GREAT year...
You're an idiot based off other %*%#!#! opinions you've made over the past about hip-hop.Originally Posted by NikeTalker23

Seems to me like you're ignoring your own initial question and only attempting to big up Gucci, which is fine, make that thread, but don't pose a question, get an answer with credible numbers and facts supporting that answer, then not honor or acknowledge the answer because it doesn't suit you.
