Gucci Mane to release "The Burrprint 2" from Prison

For years, Gucci Mane was considered a joke. Until last fall, his claim to fame was his 2007 single, "Freaky Gurl." The song had an appeal to everyone, but still no one took him serious. When 2009 rolled around, the New Year's resolution from Gucci Mane was to become one of the top rappers in the game. Still, many people were taking Gucci as a joke.

The people who were laughing in January were convinced by December. There are a lot of people who still do not like Gucci Mane, but no one feels as if he is not a good rapper. After playing a Lil Wayne and collaborating with everyone, Gucci is now taken seriously. Just as he began his climb to the top, he was convicted of a parole violation and sent back to prison.

Despite being in prison, Gucci Mane has plans of releasing a new album, but those plans are currently on hold. Aside from his chart-topping album, The State vs. Radric Davis, Gucci Mane released a highly-successful mixtape, The Burrprint. Hoping to continue his run, Gucci plans to release the 24-track follow-up, The Burrprint 2.
