After a wildly successful 2016, the Atlanta rapper is looking to continue his rampage into the new year.<\/p>\n<p>On Wednesday, Gucci released a surprise EP entitled&#xA0;<em>3 For Free<\/em>, a three-track effort with the producer Shawty Red. Throughout the brief 10-minute project, Guwop goes mental over sporadic trap drums and ominous bell tolls, reassuring the world that his post-prison revival has yet to reach its peak. As you can probably surmise, the joint effort is definitely not lacking in bars about stacking paper and stunting in expensive designer clothes.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" frameborder=\"no\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/304502545&amp;color=ff5500\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&#xA0;<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#x201C;Gucci how you feel, like the richest nigga ever\/Twenty-seventeen, still the slickest nigga ever\/Ain&apos;t nobody in my lane, ain&apos;t nobody on my level,&#x201D; Gucci spits in the opening track &#x201C;Ever&#x201D;.&#xA0;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>&#xA0;<\/p>\n<p>The unexpected release came just one day after Gucci Mane announced his forthcoming album&#xA0;<em>DropTopWizop<\/em>, which is yet to be given a release date.
