Two of the most influential rappers from the South, Gucci Mane and B.G., have joined forces to deliver a Christmas gift for their fans: a joint mixtape titled 'Choppers & Bricks'.
The project, which was announced on Instagram by both artists, dropped on Friday (December 15) on streaming platforms. The cover art features a photo of Gucci and B.G. posing with guns and money, along with the title and their names in red and white.
'Choppers & Bricks' marks B.G.'s first full-length release since he was freed from prison in September, after serving more than a decade for gun and obstruction charges. The former Hot Boys member has been making a comeback with singles and features with artists like E-40, Kevin Gates, and Boosie Badazz.
Gucci Mane, who has been one of the most prolific and consistent rappers in the game, has been showing his support for B.G. since before his release, offering him a $1 million record deal with his 1017 label. The two have also been seen working out together and flaunting their new jewelry.
The mixtape features 12 tracks, with production from Mike WiLL Made-It, Zaytoven, Metro Boomin, and more. The lead single, 'Cold', was released in November, and showcases the chemistry and charisma of the duo.
The project also features guest appearances from Lil Wayne, Young Thug, Rick Ross, and more. The tracklist is as follows:
