Earlier today Gucci Mane announced the rough date ("Fall") for his next album Mr. Guwop on Twitter. While we're all excited for the new date, what really got our attention was a striking image he included alongside this wondrous news. 

Tumblr user Christopher T. Mitchell worked up a masterpiece called "The Waterfall." Immediately, it reminded J.R.R. Tolkein fans of The Gates of Argonath. The Gates, also known as The Pillars of Kings, were a pair of statues of Isildur and Anárion, located on either side of the River Anduin near Nen Hithoel—which marked the border of Gondor. Now Gucci stands amongst the Trap Gods of yore.
