 Mr. 175
Submitted on: 2009-11-24 |
|
| Jeezy is a rizing icon in hip-hop culture and his music is very powerful. He makes real songs about his life and whats life is like in the streets, he put a little bit of both in the album. Top 5 songs Bury Me a G, Still On It, What You Talking About, Go Getta, and J.E.E.Z.Y. |

I dont usually write reviews but young jeezy really came with a strong cd here. Top notch beats and production puts jeezy over the top on this one. His braggadosious voice and confident rhymes really show that the man loves what he does and he gives it to his fans with real talk.

 Encouragement: Class In Session
Submitted on: 2008-03-14 |

| After seperating from former group Boyz N Da Hood, Young Jeezy's slow Godfather-like flow inspired by hustlers proved not to be a gimmick or fluke. Sophmore release The Inspiration: Thug Motivation 102 continues where his debut solo release left off. "...Class in session, when I talk they listen / but you know how it goes, real n*gg*s pay attention..." is the opening words on "Hypnotize (Intro)" as a declaration of a lyrical role model of how it should be done. Sticking to the street corners out of which he came "Still On It" has Jeezy giving out deals from his grind. "U Know What It Is" is where he proclaims himself as the governor of Georgia accompanied with a horn section perfectly arranged for his honor. One of the three produced by Shawty Redd, "J.E.E.Z.Y." explains his vices and his mentality for rookies to follow these steps to getting paid. "I Luv It" is just the feelings of the Snowman's lifestyle as a simple feel good song with the perfect arrangement to compliment the mood of a new day as "What You Talkin' Bout" with its harmony. Moving up on financial status and getting everything in reach is the subject matter of "Go Getta" featuring R. Kelly as does the heartfelt song "Dreamin'" featuring Keyshia Cole about reaching goals. Featuring and produced by Timbaland "3 A.M." is one of the highlights of The Inspiration where the scene is set after the club. Containing a blend of horns and a rock driven guitar riffs, "The Realest" attacks those who claim the game but never played. To Jeezy the game is a breeze as he represent Atlanta where he has the "Streets On Lock". Having visions of his death on "Bury Me A G" facilitate the idea of his burial. "Keep It Gangsta" featuring Slick Pulla & Blood Raw and "Mr. 17.5" are concrete additions for more street anthems for thugs. Having bragging rights on "I Got Money" featuring T.I. is where they both boast on the verses. The title track is an attempt to inspire those with nothing and the youth to chase their dreams in a sense. The Snowman Young Jeezy delivers a solid effort over a variety of tracks and subjects where this entire package emerge from the thickest of fog of doubt for critics. The Inspiration: Thug Motivation 102 highlights Young Jeezy's talents to be taken seriously. That's right! |

 Jeezy From a Golden Era Perspective
Submitted on: 2008-02-03 |

When Jeezy first came out I could not stand him. I like old school (L.O.N.S., EMPD, PE) but I love fresh production. To me the this era's MCs are dead, recycled and washed up, but the production in this era is extremely good (some people have trouble analyzing both separately). For example, I love The Runners and their new sound . My love and appreciation for production has lead me to Jeezy.
My favorite hip hop magazine is "Scratch" which is hip hop for a producer perspective (it got discontinued in Oct of 06; very disappointed ), interviewed Jeezy specifically about this album and he said the following:
"You know how Jeru the Damaja's first album sounds like Brooklyn? How 8ball & MJG sound like Memphis?"
Well Jeezy has a distinct unique sound for ATL (I love 8ball & MJG and have the same respect for them as I am finding with Jeezy). That is what I like about this album, Jeezy is different; I don't love his message or care for the same topics but when he raps, he does it in his unique way which I gotta respect.
So I was kinda impressed because my standards were low. The good parts are that the production is kicking and Jeezy has a distinct sound. The lows are that he is very one dimensional. |
