The dynamic Brick Squad 1017 duo of Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka Flame came together to release this week’s other mentor-protege collaborative album, Ferrari Boyz. This work, reportedly recorded in less than two weeks, finds two rappers whose reputations precede them, and who maintain cult followings, despite a polarizing response across the Hip Hop landscape.
Gucci and Waka have been, and will likely continue to be, most notable for rapping about their unique lives – a fantastical world filled with controlled substances, the finest exotic dancers, and the flyest whips a (t)rapper’s money can buy. Ferrari Boyz continues their ongoing musical pursuits to allow listeners a glimpse of their lofty lifestyles, with a 15-track selection of the two trading verses about financial indigestion (“stomach full of money, so hundreds I’ma burp [excuse me]” as heard on “15th And The 1st”), casual encounters with your female siblings (“I’m a cold hearted nigga / You might catch me with your sister / Autograph my picture / I won’t ever kiss her” via “Break Her”), and embracing their youthful spirits (“I’m in the club 30 deep like a young nigga / I’m still in the streets like a young nigga” as told on “Young Niggaz”).
Southside and Lex Luger provide majority of the production work on Ferrari Boyz, providing as much musical diversity as the lyrical counterpart. Trunks will rattle and booties will clap along to the mud-driven rhythms whenever these songs are in rotation, which is probably the goal anyway. The overall sound is that which fuels the inebriation of club-goers or D-boys on the block, and is not to be consumed when sober. To get close to properly appreciating the alliance of elementary-level rhyme schemes of Southern slang and the deep vibrato of the bass-laden instrumentals, the right setting and substances are required. A little bit of, as Waka calls it, “Obama, that’s brown and white liquor,” while posted up in one of the strip clubs they call out by name in “Feed Me” (including, oddly enough, New York hot-spots Sue’s Rendezvous and Perfections), would be the ideal scenario for consumption of Ferrari Boyz.
Unless the listener can wholeheartedly relate to the activities that Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka Flame rap about on Ferrari Boyz, minds will be uninspired and eardrums swollen halfway through the album. Entertaining enough to merit some club spins and some laughs, Ferrari Boyz is hardly a moment of endurance in either artist’s catalog. There are no surprises here, no growth shown, but the one thing worth crediting to Gucci and Waka is their consistency – the audience will know what to expect, and as long as that is all that they expect, their expectations will be fulfilled.

One star, whack as fuck. Unbearable
This is the kind of rap that is killing Hip Hop!
looooool
look its the return of retardo flow and his slow witted homie waka ‘i cant think of a line so ima scream brick squad ‘ flocka
I love to hate both these guys cause they r sooooo bad. Is this their version of watch the throne? LMAOSH!!!!
Watch The Throne: Dirty South
gucci’s face: Watch The Cone
Waka and Gucci the Truth, Fuck this 1 star bullshit, They murk it way better then Jay and Kanye, Fuck a Jay-Z. GUCCCI! Brrrrrrr.
1017 all day.

gucci n waka suck, get over it and move on with ur life
Horrid
LMAO. Review was good for entertainment.
Im gonna find where you assholes live and take a shit in your pools
this space should have been used to review Thurz ‘L.A. Riot’ instead
Gucci Mane and Waka Flocka are the Realest in the industry! At lest they keep making there Fans Music! Jay Z and Kanye West Suck! They Worship the Devil!
haha okay dude whatever you say
LouisBoi1017BSM you truly are the dumbest tool in the box.
I like Waka, but shit flat-out sucked. Warner Brothers loves releasing quality-deficient mixtapes.
they are real..
real crappy…
they are true…
true idiots…
its gucci/i get coogi/sell kuffis/smoke dubies/chillin with waka man/i got bricks to chop up man/gucci be so icy/in the club so nicely/yo girl love gucci dick/i tell her that her coogi sick/she wanna have my babies/gucci mane b crazy
that shit took maybe 5 seconds to type but that’s the majority of gucci and waka’s raps (actually waka’s are worse since he just raps one syllable all day)
these two are a joke
Haha, dope.
and yet you have no record deal smh….. if it was that easy you would be paid right? thought so…… gucci mane and waka paid you not….kill yourself
okay i’ll go kill myself bcuz i dont rap n dont know ne1 in the industry (that’s how waka got started btw) thanks for the suggestion bruh! LOL SMILEY FACE 🙂
LOL, these two clowns! If you like waka flocka flamer you are a clown
An whole album worth of Southside and Luger beats couldn’t save’em huh! Damn Homie!!!!
by the way, Southside beats don’t seem that great to me..by the way people were hyping him up, I thought they’d be better. Luger’s are much better.
This shit so wack I didn’t even give it a rating. Thank GOD!!! for Watch The Throne and Bad Meets Evil.
t
i bump this in my rusted 86 toyota tercel…girls look at me like who’s that…
Girls look at you like “I can’t believe your taste in music is so shitty”
Shame. I actually thought this might be something.
haters gonna hate.. this is that trap shit.. yall dont know shit about that
Hell no they don’t, they love the rump rangers wit high pitched voices using big words. “yo god thats real hip flop son.”
How the FUCK yall review this before Success is Certain?
nvm lol
the rating of this album on hiphopdx is comical..this album is just not for this fanbase..extremely biased review..(the audience will know what to expect)..this album bangs and that is the end all be all to this…any real Gucci or Waka fan wouldnt look here for a review anyway..and i wont even waste my time…this is a four out of five for anybody lookin for a Gucci or Waka type of album
good album fuk haterz
not 5 stars DX?????????????
what happened????????
dis is fly
fuckery
Gucci + Waka = Terrible music! They make Soulja Boy look like Nas.
The amount of biting sarcasm dripping off this review is amazing. Seriously, I love it. People know what to expect from this album. Shit. Because even in their “fans” heart of hearts, they know they are nothin but shitty “rappers” who got lucky that niggas love dumb shit. “Dis shit iz real mane dey da realest niggas out there” Shut yo dumb ass up and read a book bitch. By the way Real niggas in the rap game are truly a rarity. If you can’t do, rap about it look at Rick Ross. This is the only time I can give Gucci a pass because he actually killed somebody and copped a self defense win. HOWEVER he still makes “music” out of his ass, and no one likes shitty music.
If I could give this half a star for effort I would because a whole 1 star is waaaay too much.
Do we really live in a world where murdering someone is a good thing?
I agree. Except about the part where Gucci actually did something positive. Both these rappers suck ass.
Gucci!… Flocka!
this shit suk, i get that some ppl like the ignorant dumb non complex shit but shit, how the fuck r u gonna listen to this n say it’s hot shit? most of the beats r bangin but honeslty that makes it worse when u got sick production n beats but ur music still sucks
Hey yo, DX…c’mon son. We all know this ain’t real and good hip hop. But you gotta rate it for what it is; 2 stars? Why don’t you take your own advice as you talked about in the last two sentences. You said their audience will know what to expect and won’t be dissapointed. So, for what Gucci and Wacka, and these type of rappers do, you gotta give it more than 2 stars. But comparing it to all hip hop, then yea, it should get 2 stars. And I admit, I did feel a lot dumber after I listened to the whole thing.
why should they give it more than 2 stars becuase it doesnt live up to real hiphop? It is being reviewed in the grand spectrum of music not just this f’d up southern swag genre
I’m a cold hearted nigga / You might catch me with your sister / Autograph my picture / I won’t ever kiss her.
Hypocrites, this would’ve been praised if Nas said it on Nasty.
You sir are correct. and if Feminem spit it they would have been screaming rhyme of the year.
Wonder why this got more comments, whether bad or good, than the real shit that gets posted here? Fuck off.
because hate is stronger than love nigga. same reason none of these dumb monkeys go buy none of “the real shit” i guess real shit don’t make real money.
Yeaah, love this review…obviously biased towards real hiphop and probably could’t believe he’d have to actually listen to and write about the album. these 2 clowns are a joke to anyone who appreciates a real emcee. retard music by retards for retards?? yea…now i’d love to hear a dj mix this and Bad Meets Evil…jus wanna hear how bad royce n em wuld murk these suckas!
i bet yo mama blow a mean dick.
why is this chick reviewing music? shouldn’t she be shakin that ass in Gucci video? maybe thats why she rated it low, couldn’t make the cut.
sh** go hard
1 is the most popular ranking.
I don’t get the ratings, what do people expect from an album like this? A second Black Star or Untitled? They have their own lane and are successful at what they do. So fuck off, haters.
Production wise, Gucci Mane gets better every album. His problem (as well as Waka Flaka’s) is every song sounds the same. After 1 or 2 listens it becomes a little boring.
To each his own I guess, but I honestly don’t see how anyone can listen to this shit.
wtf how these niggas from da water boy(dudes that said joe montania ass retarted niggas)get two stars kill yaself lex luger bullshit same fruity loop bullshit always
on some real shit tho. ya’ll know waka be makin u hype as fuck. like say what wut u will bout him being a degenerate. (like dude cant even talk right how u expect him to rhyme)but i fux wit him for that tho
BX,SOuthside queens,Harlem,Mount Vernon, and BROOKLYN STAND up.idk bout u simple minded niggas but this year was set off good qlbums like blu jesus lp,roc marciano& gangrene combo album, median the sender, Halo return of the poet,Thee tom Hardy Doubtin Thomas,King Mez Everlasting Zeal jamla iwwmg,Phonte charitystarts at home, 9th wonder the wonder years,Nas album life is good, black star album, madlib medicine show 12, MED album stones throw records and IWWMG taking ova
I seriously wonder how long it takes these Niggaz to Record a Track. I honestly say 15 mins how could you be fans of rappers with no Vocab. Well they played yall keep giving them yall money.
haha so tru
uhh…. smh, I only lasted 5 songs, so bad… but the review was hilarious
FUCK DIS REVIEW. HIP HOP DX DICKRIDE JAYZ AND DA REST OF THEM DEVIL WORSHIPPERS. IF 1017 AINT ON HIP HOPS LANDSCAPE, Y IS EVERYONE COPYING THEIR STYLE AND Y IS THE BEST BUT STILL LAME 2 SONGS ON JAY AND YE ALBUME PRODUCED BY BY LEX AND SIZZLE??? DUMB ASS
nigga wtf u on crack stfu i rather hear goats rap than than these two coon ass jive ass muthafuckas!!!
Come on, this niggas aren’t lyricists, they know it and don’t try to be. So be fair and don’t rate this album with Nas standards.

LMMAAOOO DX kindly and respectfully ripped into Gucci and Waka. These niggas are waack. As long as people relaize this music is shit hiphop aint dead

damn i cud record those three lines n waka would be like damn nigga u can spit!
Loved the review. These two imbeciles are the personification of every negative sterotype you can think of about black people. Ignorant, ghetto, unintelligent, lack of vocabulary, and the list goes on. Most are the fans have all these traits too.
Thank fucking goodness someone on this site has sense. These dudes are coons. And I’m part black so I’m not being racist. They’re just straight coons and shouldn’t be rapping at all.
if thats the case then the negative stereo type you speak of is true….
THIS CD WAS DA SHXT
love it!!!
these punks wack….get this bullshit off the streets man…we need 103!
shit was a let down i was expecting some real heavy bangers they dont mesh well together wacka should just do his shit and gooch his shit ,2 stars .back to listening writings on the wall 2 now that’s what im talkin bout bitch
Thats because you suck
4/5, but haterz gon’ hate.
Its in their lane so i think its a 4 outta 5.
funny how half of the people posting “Bad” comments on these two can’t even spell and they talk about how dumb the rappers are.
Well Gucci & wocka probably cant spell either. and…they are quite stupid 😛
No intelligence detected.
its a sweet song
Man these guys have to find a different style, because all of their shit sounds the same!!
all ya haterz need to get wt it or get lost, these niggaz getting fuck what ya said. i am not saying they good but they try. wether like it or not they making hell a do by being stupid.respect that.
fuck you bitch youre a dick sucking faggot ass bitch
poop!
gucci aint wit da fuck shit
This Is The BEST Album 2011 Has Yet See, Although I Knew With 2Great Rappers As Such As Waka & Gucci The Piece Would Have Been A Masterpiece Like It Is.
I totally agree. These guys are so fucking underrated. Hiphop has moved on. Give these guys a chance. They are so honest with their music that if anything we should give them props just for that. These guys are repping what we really are deep down. We may pretend to be polished classy or whatever but at the end of the day all we want is pussy money and a hell of a good time.
sleeeeeeeppppp! this shit ridessss
Lex Luger didnt produce a single beat on this but DX says he handled the majority of the production. Nice journalism….
The production by sizzle is smashing!
