It’s safe to say that Gucci Mane is the most polarizing figure in the rap game. You either love him or hate him. He is now known more for his bullying rappers & his infamous Twitter rants than his music. Currently locked in a Fulton County jail cell, Gucci has released a statement via twitter (presumably made by someone with control of his twitter). In it he apologizes for his recent actions, including the twitter rant, and admits a 10 plus year addiction to lean. Will this apology help rebuild burned bridges or has he alienated everybody with his actions? View the tweets here:
