Radric Davis (born February 2, 1980), better known by his stage name Gucci Mane, is an American rapper. He debuted in 2005 with Trap House and followed with albums such as Hard to Kill in 2006, Trap-A-Thon and Back to the Trap House in 2007. In 2009, his second studio album The State vs. Radric Davis was released, and The Appeal: Georgia's Most Wanted was released in 2010, and is his highest charting album so far. Gucci Mane has released many other mixtapes and independent albums as well.
While serving a six-month jail term for assault in late 2005, Davis was charged with murder, though the charges were later dropped due to a lack of evidence. In 2009, he served a year-long county jail sentence for violating probation for his 2005 aggravated assault conviction.
Davis was born in Birmingham, Alabama, and later moved with his single mother to Atlanta. He enjoyed writing poetry as a child, and began rapping at age 14.
In 2005, Davis released his independent debut album entitled Trap House, which featured the successful single "Icy" with Young Jeezy. Disputes over the rights to this single caused a rift between the two artists. Hard to Kill followed in 2006. Hard To Kill included the hit single "Freaky Gurl". The song peaked at number 12 on the Hot Rap Tracks, number 19 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and at number 62 on the Hot 100.
Curtis James Jackson III (born July 6, 1975), better known by his stage name 50 Cent, is an American rapper, entrepreneur, investor, record producer, and actor. He rose to fame with the release of his albums Get Rich or Die Tryin' (2003) and The Massacre (2005). His album Get Rich or Die Tryin' has been certified eight times platinum by the RIAA.
Born in the South Jamaica of Queens, New York City, Jackson began drug dealing at the age of twelve during the 1980s crack epidemic. After leaving drug dealing to pursue a rap career, he was shot at and struck by nine bullets during an incident in 2000. After releasing his album Guess Who's Back? in 2002, Jackson was discovered by rapper Eminem and signed to Interscope Records. With the help of Eminem and Dr. Dre, who produced his first major commercial successes, Jackson became one of the world's highest selling rappers. In 2003, he founded the record label G-Unit Records, which signed several successful rappers such as Young Buck, Lloyd Banks, and Tony Yayo.
Recently I’ve been burning bridges
and giving up so much pointless stuff
that when I finally show up at all they’ll be surprised
recently I’ve been taking chances
and giving lessons on how to tell the world you don’t care
before you ask, I’m fine.
‘Cause honestly I don’t have the patience
to try and explain the things I say
and my time is wasted
just like your cynical friends
and honestly I don’t think about the things I say
I guess it sorta just comes out
So, goodbye (goodbye)
I’m ready to go.
And I’m leaving all of these memories on the floor
Used to be that I could see
A reason to be happy 'cause I was free
But then, recently it seems
I?ve been lettin' your memory get to me
Used to be that I could pretend
That I wasn't really hurt back then
But then, recently it seems
I?ve been lettin' your memory get to me
'Cause memories can be friends
Or they can take you to a place
That you never thought you?d be again
And take you to a place
That you never ever thought
That you would see again
'Cause memories can be friends
Or they can take you to a face
That you never thought you?d be again
And take you to a face
That you never ever thought
That you would see again
Doesn?t matter now who was wrong
The future is tomorrow 'cause the past is gone
And I?m findin' that I?m not as strong
As I thought that I used to be
'Cause recently it seems
Recently it all came back to me
Somebody promised us roses
We slid by for awhile on dreams
But today I see what's only a memory
Of a decade ago that vanished from sight
With the speed of a shooting star
Leaving you, leaving me, where we are...
Well, you could say we sailed on stormy seas
Or you could say that we failed
Like seven out of ten in our neighborhood
But I prefer remembering the way we were
When we both thought the other had hung the moon
'Cause all too soon came the troubled times
And the broken rhymes so hard to define 'til recently
Oh, I could have tried for a thousand years
Through the long and winding night
Could have cried another million tears
It would never come out right
And recently the product of all our years
Dressed in a navy blue blazer
Headed for a first class school in the east
And I'd like to say he's hardly a failure now
And neither are you on the second time around
With a wife and a family
And the roses that lately arrived in the new baby's eyes
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy,
Sunshine almost always makes me high.
Some people drink, some people don't,
Some people think, some people won't.
Some people like to smoke a bowl, some don't,
Some people do, and some people don't.
It's okay, because it's meant to be that way...
Some people do, some people don't.
Some people do, some people won't.
Some people do, some people don't. (repeat)
Recently I've been
All of content and dreaming I have been
'Cause I been lately seeing
Quite a bit of this woman live on my street
People stare and we just ignore,
And we just ignore everything
People stare and we just ignore them
And they go away, go away, go away
She comes to me,
I watch her drink,
I watch her comb her hair.
Both say that we never before have
Felt as recently
People stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the (worrying)
She and me go to places quiet
Where we are quite alone
Kiss and we hold together
We will be until we done
People stare and we just ignore
What's the use in hiding out
She says all the time
Let their eyes do the worrying
Walk and talk, we both do quite well
And kissing all the time, all the time
Always looking forward to much more
So we dance away, and dance around our love all day.
We do our best to contain this thing inside everyone. So fear we fear and speak to no one else...
I say, 'I will give you water,
If you will share your wine,
And I will feed your heart,
If you promise to feed mine.'
And so we will dance together,
Until the end of time,
Until the end of time.
Recently (x4)
I acted cool, I asked around,
But you could not be seen,
I was desperate, indifferent,
To put everyone on call,
You walked in, I clicked on,
You could not refuse,
It has to be, and we know it now,
So get the rocket, light the fuse,
'Cause recently I kissed you,
it's like a dream come true,
And recently you're likin' me and I'm really likin' you,
Never apart, we go around,
Siamese in crazy love,
I learn your quirks, and call your world,
What did I do before you?
Because recently I need to be with you all the time,
Recently some jealousy has crept into my mind,
Recently I noticed that it's weird to be alone,
Recently my friends, they never call me anymore,
Recently I'm happier being by myself,
