Life and career
1980 2004: Early life and career beginnings
Radric Delantic Davis was born on February 12, 1980 in Birmingham, Alabama. He l

0 cd's and distributed on the streets.[3] In 2002, Davis linked up with SYS Reco
rds as a member of the Sign Yourself Click. Gucci also linked up with producer Z
aytoven and made his own label, LaFlare Entertainment. After heading to New York
in search of a distribution deal and returning home empty, he was introduced to
Big Cat, the head of Big Cat Records. Ultimately deciding to form an alliance w
ith the label that brought Khia to prominence, Gucci released a song, Black Tee, a

ew with Sway, Waka explained that he would never do music nor business with Gucc
i ever again. Neither of the rappers have explained where the controversy origin
ated from. Waka has stated, "I guess we both be at the finish line we just going
our own routes. That's all I can say. What's the reason? Sometimes it's none of
your fuckin' business what's the reason. Just understand two men went they own
ways but it's no problem."[113]
On November 19, 2013, it was revealed Gucci Mane had filed a lawsuit against Wak
a Flocka Flame, Waka's mother Debra Antney, OJ Da Juiceman, rapper Khia Stone an
d producer Zaytoven. The lawsuit accuses the parties of fraud, racketeering, and
breach of contract. According to Gucci Mane, Waka's mother Antney took control
of his 1017 Brick Squad Records, LLC., without permission, and used it to create
three separate offshoot labels. "Gucci is also accusing the parties in the laws
uit of withholding royalties and inflating the cost of label expenditures" and c
laimed that Antney seized his assets and stole a ring and a necklace."[114] In h

is lawsuit, Gucci Mane also says that Antney took more than the typical 20 perce
nt management fee. Gucci Mane also alleges that Antney's actions led to his havi
ng money and tax problems.[115]
Twitter
In September 2013, Gucci Mane sent a series of derogatory tweets to various figu
res in the hip-hop industry, including Drake, 2 Chainz, Eminem, Young Jeezy, T.I
., Yo Gotti, Waka Flocka Flame, Nicki Minaj, Tyga, Blac Chyna, Migos, Rocko, Ken
drick Lamar, Jay Z, and others. In the tweets he claimed to have sexual relation
s with rappers' girlfriends. A couple days later, Gucci stated his Twitter accou
nt had been hacked.[116]
