MUSIC: GUCCI MANE / MEEK MILL / LIL UZI VERT

Along with being one of hip-hop’s most prolific and admired artists, Gucci Mane will soon become one of literature’s newest authors following the release of his upcoming autobiography. Set to release in stores September 19, Gucci recently released a trailer to offer fans an idea of what they can expect. The autobiography is a compilation of the memoirs Guwop wrote during his time in a maximum-security federal prison and serves as the first time the artist tells his story in his own words. Gucci offers a glimpse at the highs and lows of his career with an in-depth look at his roots in Alabama, the streets of Atlanta, and the trap house and studio where he perfected his sound. Check out the trailer for The Autobiography of Gucci Mane above and pre-order the book here.

Meek Mill is continuing to push out videos from his latest album Wins and Losses with the release of the visual accompaniment for the track “Save Me.” The video takes the viewer to a handful of different settings, from Meek taking a walk through an empty high school to standing in front of a convenience store in full formal wear. What’s being shown in the video matches the subject matter of the track, as Meek uses the song to reflect on the positive and negative experiences he’s had thus far in his life.

After his debut studio album, Luv is Rage 2, made its debut at the top of the Billboard charts, Philadelphia rapper Lil Uzi Vert has followed that up with the release of the visuals for his smash hit “XO Tour Llif3.” Directed by OFF-WHITE founder Virgil Abloh, the video sees Abloh taking his camera through the aftermath of a party, with a number of people passed out in various places. The video then switches back and forth between this scene and Uzi singing in the streets.
The video also sees a handful of dark themes and occurrences, such as Uzi lying in a pool of his own blood and individuals placing flowers at his own tombstone at the end of the video. Also included in the visuals are appearances from Toronto singers The Weeknd and NAV. Watch the full video above.
