In terms making it a an actual sub genre and making a whole album out the shyt, thats all Tip. Jeezy put the sub genre on a greater scale (Tip couldn't all by himself) Where the fukk does Gucci come into play here? He wasnt a factor until 2009. What Gucci was doing in the early/mid 2000s had no affect on trap at all.

Go back and listen to T.I. and Jeezy music and Gucci music from that time period and tell me which one sounds closer to what trap sounds like currently... if you say anything other than Gucci you lying to yourself.
Thats not answering the question. Answer the question.

Bruh Gucci was putting out albums at the same time as them. You trying to act like Gucci was never around when he was always around. To say he wasn't a factor is crazy. That boy dropped a million mixtapes back then.

Dropping mixtapes and albums dont mean you was a factor, it just mean you dropped hella shyt. You basically roving point because you said it yourself; he was just..... AROUND lol. Nothing else. What barriers did he break in the early 2000s. We can answer this question for T.I and Jeezy, yall cant for Gucci.
