Yo Gotti - For The Hood
Artist: Yo Gotti
Featuring: Gucci Mane
Producer: Nard & B
Album: Live from the Kitchen
Label: CMG/Polo Grounds/RCA
I know it sounds incredible, but the new single from infamous Memphis rapper and drug dealer Yo Gotti, For the Hood, doesn’t feature Mr. Gotti rapping about dealing drugs, but rather is a complex look at the political, social and economic forces that have conspired to keep millions in poverty. Just kidding. Of course it’s about drugs, clothes, money and hos. While producers Nard & B lay down an appropriately anthemic, synth-centered beat, Gotti takes us on an audio tour of America’s hoods, shouting out every city from Mobile, Alabama to Dallas, Texas. With a topic like that you know Gucci Mane just had to get in on the action, and the icey one jumps on the record with one of the fastest flows I’ve ever heard from him. So how about it Booth? Is this certified banger your new hood anthem? If you like your hip-hop uncompromisingly street and covered in white powder, there’s no doubt you’ll want to cop
…bad choice of words… procure Gotti’s upcoming album, Live From the Kitchen, when it drops in December.

Though both emcees have an immensely loyal following (not just in the south, but everywhere), I have never caught their wave. When I saw this new single pop up in our inbox, I knew I wouldn't like it. Turns out, its not bad at all. Credit to production duo Nard & B.

Yeah, there's some pretty good production here, but not significantly so, and no verses seemed anything special. Thoroughly mediocre track.

Say what you want but I swear every time I hear Gucci he gets better. I can respect that he is trying to show improvement, and succeeding at that.

Nothing new here. Before I even listened to it I knew about what it was. Nice review Nathan.

I need a 2.5 star. The beat is nice but their flow is the same old thing. I don't know who they're repping for in the south, its not me. I'm tired of these cats making us look ignorant. You can be street/hood/gangsta & have use a lil word play. Hell, you can be straight forward without metaphors & still drop something heavy. I'm about to submit a song right now. Look for it.

This song goes hard to say the least. Gucci does get better each time cause I am starting to like him a little.

Not really my thing, but I've got no doubt that the loyal fans that Z mentioned, whom this track was clearly made for, will be bumping it all day. And while I can't say I'm "impressed" by Gucci's flow, from a delivery standpoint this is the fastest I've ever heard him flow.

The production is excellent and that's the best feature of the song, but them two don't sound too bad
