Early Life

Radric Delantic Davis was born on February 12, 1980, in Bessemer, Alabama. When he was born, his father was on the run from police for dealing crack cocaine and heroin and living in Detroit, Michigan. His paternal grandmother raised Davis while his mother attended college. Mane was introduced to rap and hip hop at a young age by his older half-brother Victor, who brought him to a Run-DMC, Beastie Boys, and LL Cool J concert. In 1989, Mane and his mother moved to Atlanta. He grew up in an area high in crime. Mane became a drug dealer while in junior high. He used his Christmas money in eighth grade to buy crack cocaine to sell to others.

Mane was a good student in high school and popular with his peers. Despite having a side hustle as a drug dealer, Mane didn't take drugs for the first few years he was dealing. In 1995, Mane had been selling drugs for two years when someone stopped him on his bicycle, pointed a gun at his head, and robbed him. After this, he began carrying a handgun. Mane graduated from high school in 1998 with a 3.0 GPA and a scholarship to Georgia Perimeter College. He was expelled from college in 2001 after he was caught in possession of crack cocaine by an undercover police officer. He was sentenced to 90 days in county jail and probation.

Career

After his first arrest, Mane began to take music seriously. He released an album called La Flare, distributed through a run of 1,000 CDs he distributed throughout East Atlanta. Mane collaborated with Young Jeezy called "So Icy," which was distributed through Tommy Boy Records. In 2005, Mane released his independent debut album entitled Trap House. The album crept into the Top 20 of the Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts and landed at the top spot on the Billboard Heatseekers Album chart. His second album, Hard to Kill, followed in 2006. It included the hit single "Freaky Gurl," which peaked at number 12 on the Hot Rap Tracks.

Mane released studio albums Murder Was The Case in 2009, The State vs. Radric Davis in 2010, The Appeal: Georgia's Most Wanted in 2010, The Return of Mr. Zone in 2011, Everybody Looking in 2016, Mr. Davis in 2017, and Evil Genius in 2018. His more recent releases are 2019's Delusions of Grandeur and Woptober II and 2021's Ice Daddy.

Gucci Mane and Rae Sremmurd worked together on the single "Black Beatles." It was released in November 2016 and reached the top spot on the chart of songs–not just R&B, hip hop, or rap songs — all songs. It was Mane's first number-one single as a featured artist. It remained at the top of the charts for seven non-consecutive weeks in late 2016 and early 2017.

Gucci Mane performed at the 2017 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival and stunned the audience when he surprised them by bringing out P Diddy.

In the fall of 2017, he released "The Autobiography of Gucci Mane."

As of this writing, Gucci Mane has released 15 studio albums and over 71 mixtapes throughout his career.

In 2007, he founded his own label, 1017 Records. He has worked with artists such as Drake, Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, Selena Gomez, Mariah Carey, and Marilyn Manson. His prolific mixtape releases and long-standing presence as a trap music innovator in the Atlanta music scene have established him as a major influence on younger Atlanta rappers like Young Thug, Migos, Rich Homie Quan, 21 Savage, and Lil Yachty.

Personal Life

Gucci Mane married Keyshia Ka'oir on October 17, 2017. The wedding was paid for by BET, which produced a 10-episode TV series based on it called "The Mane Event," showing Ka'oir organizing the wedding, culminating in walking down the aisle on a carpet sprinkled with diamonds. Mane proposed to Ka'oir after performing at an Atlanta Hawks basketball game. Together, the couple has a son, Ice Davis, and a daughter, Iceland Ka'oir Davis.

In his autobiography, he revealed that he has a son born in 2007 whom he had not known about until 2016.
