Gucci Mane returns with ‘Episodes’

The rapper shares a two-pack single of “Voices” and “Psycho”

Opening up like never before, rap superstar Gucci Mane will unveil his most ambitious project to date in 2025. He uncovers his anxiously awaited 17th full-length album, Episodes, on October 17th via 1017/Atlantic Music Group, and it accompanies his second book—also entitled Episodes—out October 14th on Simon & Schuster.

Gucci sets the stage for this multi-faceted body of work by sharing a new two-pack of songs, namely “Voices” and “Psycho.”

Both tracks find Guwop in top form as he bodies the production with confessional, catchy, and endlessly quotable rhymes. Accompanying this drop, iconic and influential filmmaker, director, screenwriter, and producer Harmony Korine [Kids, Gummo] notably helmed an AI music video incorporating both “Voices” and “Psycho.” It’s Gucci Mane like you’ve never seen him. The visual also continues his longstanding creative collaboration with Korine who cast the hip-hop icon in his 2012 critically acclaimed cult classic Spring Breakers. The video is powered by EDGLRD who brought this to life in a short timeframe, blending high-level creativity with emerging technology and AI, all delivered with a meticulous, high-touch approach.

Marking a career first, Episodes acts as an emotionally charged high stakes soundtrack for the book, which reveals Gucci Mane’s struggles with mental health and drug addiction and provides fans and readers with insights into his career and life. These “Episodes” encompassed what happened behind the music itself. Between disclosing his own stories, he even personally interviews various mental health professionals in order to offer a well-rounded and informed perspective.

In the book, Gucci revisits his life and shares what was really going on for the first time. The mental anguish, the pitfalls, the triggers no one speaks about. Each episode is Gucci experiencing something—something you may remember from the news or even heard in his music—and giving you the background of where he was mentally. He reveals how his fascination with money got the worst of him, why he committed certain crimes, the story behind his ice cream cone tattoo, and how his wife felt watching him overdose. Along the way, he interviews medical professionals and mental health experts to provide insight into mental health awareness.
