Atlanta, GA

Gucci Mane is officially celebrating his freedom with a homecoming concert called “Gucci Mane and Friends.”

The show is scheduled for 8 p.m. EST Friday, July 22 at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta.

Guwop took the stage this weekend for the first time since being released from prison for weapons charges. He performed a slew of hits from his career and was supported by his girlfriend, Keyshia Ka’oir and his longtime producer, Zaytoven. Of course, the whole thing was documented on Snapchat with custom filters.

The Trap King was freed last month after spending years behind bars and he released a song, “First Day Out Tha Feds,” the day after his release. He has since been featured on Kanye West’s “Champions” mega-single and teamed up with Drake for “Back On Road.”

Zaytoven spoke with HipHopDX about getting back in the lab with his longtime friend.

“Gucci is a guy that I think that has a sound that has created a way, even if you listen to the music today, it’s all, like 90 percent of it stems from the rap music that Gucci really created maybe 10 years ago,” he said, “so he just got out and got back to business, got back to doing what he do. Just like me, the sound I’ve created and the sound I have I’ve been doing since we’ve started, so there’s nothing that we really had to go and change. Of course, we kinda sparked it up a little bit, added a few new things, we started working. But for the most part, he got back to doing what he been doing before he left.”
