And other than the times he’s gone off to prison, he’s stayed devilishly prolific ever since he released his first solo album 14 years ago. Pat’s the older brother of Juicy J, and he’s been orbiting the Three 6 Mafia periphery for many years. Pat is, in a lot of way, an ancestor of Gucci’s style, of those bloodthirsty threats delivered with a particular form of playfulness, those words pronounced in increasingly bizarre ways, in cadences unique to the person rapping them. (This was, of course, a predictor of the Twitter rampage that got Gucci kicked off of Atlantic and sent to rehab, but it’s also a dope song in its own right.) Amidst all the recriminations, though, Gucci offered this: “I still say that Project Pat is my favorite rapper.” Pat is a Memphis veteran who has no affiliation with Gucci Mane, and Gucci really didn’t have anything to gain from that endorsement, so I can only assume he said it because Project Pat actually is his favorite rapper. Before Kendrick Lamar had his “Control” verse, Gucci Mane had “ Birds Of A Feather,” the song where he recklessly named just about every rapper he knew and let them know exactly where they stood with him.
