After months of isolation and reflection, Hip-Hop's underdog and witty rhyme slayer rap artist Gucci Mane (Radric Davis) is coming home on Monday, January 16, 2006. After serving his time on assault charges in Georgia's Fulton County Jail, the Atlanta rap artist victoriously won his alleged murder case after charges were dropped due to lack of evidence.
The charismatic hip-hop emcee is back and ready to reconnect with his family and fans. Gucci Mane's hit "So Icy" featuring hip-hop artist Young Jeezy, put a freeze on the competition in 2005. Now his blazing new single "Go Head" is heating up southern dance floors and poised to melt urban airwaves across the country. In sync with Gucci Mane's upbeat, catchy writing style, "Go Head" is a ardent display of his intense admiration of the female anatomy liquefied against a feverish bass line and along with "So Icy", is featured on his album Trap House (Big Cat Records).
As Big Cat Records prepares for his nationwide promotional and retail tour and the release of the new single "Go Head", Gucci Mane is expected to exceed and append his success of 2005. His debut LP Trap House was a Billboard magazine Heat Seeker and an independent phenom, selling over 100,000 copies with virtually no artist promotion. As a result of the humble rapper's legal complications, he was unable to freely promote the project, yet still enjoyed the support of his label.
"Although we were unable to fully execute the anticipated promotional and marketing efforts, we are pleased with the moderate success of Trap House thus far, in light of the circumstances, " stated Big Cat Records CEO/President, Melvin "Mel Man" Breeden.
"Big Cat Records and Gucci's fans made the decision to stand by him from the beginning and we are thankful that his troubles are behind him and now he can really get down to the business of working this record," Breeden added.
Gucci Mane's "Welcome Home Press Conference" will be held on Tuesday, January 17th, 2006 at the Big Cat Records offices in Atlanta. His positive outlook, upcoming tour and future plans will be addressed.
