Jeezy - Church In These Streets (Discussion Thread)

[nahnah]

Gave it a full listen yesterday

..... It's easily his worst album and it's also very confusing

My nikka is literally talking about the same shyt he always talks about but is trying to make it seem like he's righteous.....

Yep. From the looks of it all he's done different is dress up on the album cover.

Did thr album have little promo. Dint know he had a album coming out until day b4 its release

i listened to this morning and

his beat selection fell of something serious and he's lost his knack for making hooks that are anthem like.
so its left us with an overly long plodding repetitive album.

This shyt isn't nearly as bad as a lot of you are trying to make it out to be.

Gave it a full listen and it's another solid effort from Jeezy. Still no duds on his resume.

If we're including mixtapes Jeezy has duds. His last few mixtapes (Politically Correct and the one he dropped over the summer) were trash. "Seen it All" isn't that great, neither is "TM103", and this is coming from a Jeezy STAN. His first three albums are great, everything after that has been good to garbage. And that last "Politically Correct" mixtape ESPECIALLY was garbage, I'm a big fan but let's not act like Jeezy's resume is unblemished.

I'm talking strictly albums. Seen It All and TM103 may not be as good as his early albums, but they are not duds. Neither is this.

Easily his weakest release.

Compared to what The Game accomplished this year, it is easy to see how limited Jeezy has been lately, one of the reasons the album did not deliver on entertainment value.

I'm a huge Jeezy fan, but he been overdoing the trap beats like he has a point to prove ever since Ross stepped into that lane with BMF. Jeezy really need to leave the trap beats alone, and actually make songs with some type of concept.

Jeezy eating good. He never stopped catering to his fan base. Only fickle internet nikkas swapped out. Check the Future vs Thugga thread, that's all those cats are doing. Same nikkas that's saying fukk future were in future threads showing love last week, same nikkas saying fukk Thug was showing love when his last tape dropped. The internet is NOT an indication of the streets. These nikkas been talking that Jeezy no buzz shyt for like 6 years. He still sells albums and packs arenas. His core is intact. A better example of a nikka losing his core fans is Tity Boi, he swapped over to that 2 chains shyt and started making weirdo music. His biggest hits were lame as fukk to me and I was fukking with him and Dolla since day 1. Now he's trying to come back because he's been swapped out.

Big thing that is keeping jeezy relevant is he now gets to eat off his original fan base who are pushing 40 yrs old kids that are in their early 20s now in 2016.

Yea Jeezy Gucci and Hova are in that demograph of multi-generational appealing rappers

 

[InstantKlassik]

This is horrid. Al this dudes songs sound the same and has for quite a while now.

Damn this might his best album since the recession, the only problem is that it's nothing new or fresh except GOD.
I really thought that he would try something new with this album like he did With his first album, like he did with the recession and now he's been talking differently in his interviews and I thought that could lead to some new creativity in the booth too. It's also a half-ass attempt of trying to do something else but not wanting to in all the way , still a 3.5/5 though. Can easily play this album through in the gym without a skip and it's long as fukk.
