By now, the phrase “Free Gucci” has lost any semblance of relevancy. With prison stint after prison stint, probably not even Guwop himself can count how many times he has had cuffs slapped on his wrist. But despite being locked up, Gucci is determined not to let his name be milkboxed into obscurity. Most rappers that go to jail wait until their release date to bless fans with an extraordinary level of creativity cultivated from months of staring at walls, doing push-ups, and writing rhymes 24/7. Although he stated that prison “kills your spirit,” a fresh outta jail, California-dreamin’ Tupac reportedly came out the gates and recorded the multi-platinum classic All Eyez On Me in just two weeks, as the legend goes. But being locked away constantly, Gucci’s situation is a little different. He appears to be comfortable behind bars, which is why he has released a plethora of free music during his latest bid, like The Oddfather and Trap House 4. “Free Gucci” is now reformulated to denote Guwop’s insistence on releasing free bars via mixtapes while simultaneously behind bars.
