Best Thing on the Internet Today: Rap Industry Fan Fiction
People nerd out for rappers too.

It’s fun to imagine rappers doing everyday things like going to the grocery store or vacationing. Take Gucci Mane for example. He likes playing dodge ball in prison. So what happens when Gucci Mane loses his prison dodgeball game? I don’t know, but Rap Industry Fan Fiction does. An excerpt: “A ball dribbled in front of him as if by magic. Gucci was ready. It was time. He cocked his arm for the throw of his life. Before he could let the dodgeball fly, Gucci Mane was hit in the face by an object. It was also a dodgeball. It had been thrown by Lil Boosie. At that moment, Gucci Mane finally understood. ‘Forever alone,’ he said as he walked to the sidelines of the prison’s dodgeball arena. ‘Forever alone.'” I feel like I know Gucci’s softer side so much better now.
