Jeezy throws shots at Def Jam on twitter

[ucanthandlethetruth]

Ross did a lot of that on his own. Def Jam gave him:

I Love My B******
You The Boss
Touch N You (w/ a video)
So Sophisticated (w/ a video)
Hold Me Back (w/ a video)
Diced Pineapples (w/ a video)

Ross on his own had:

2 MMG projects

2 major mixtapes which spawned "9 Piece", "Rich Forever", and "Stay Schemin'".

those cheap SpliffTv videos

a look from Rollingstone

vs.

Def Jam gave Jeezy:

Lose My Mind (w/ a video)
All White Everything (w/ a video)
Jizzle
Ballin' (w/ a video)
Shake Life
FAME (w/ a video)
I Do
Super Freak (w/ a video)
Leave You Alone (w/ a video)


Jeezy had more singles and videos. Yes, I know Jeezy's album was pushed back, but so was Ross's. Besides, Def Jam backed promo is still Def Jam backed promo. I don't really recall them doing all that for an artist regardless of the pushbacks. The difference is they gave Jeezy everything but a release date up until 12/2011.

i give you dap for a intelligent argument breh but i still disagree. ross was given a open extensive budget and promo since 50 exposed him and the whole babymamaz thing to combat that. that budget has glaringly been clearly thrown in the bushes since gfid expectations and ross's expected career ascension fell flat. def jam after spending all that money wanted results and trust me they aint happy because the ends has not justified the means. as you see its a real difference now in ross/mmg promotion and buzz...jeezy during his last album didnt have that backing ross had, in the real world that was glaringly apparent wether u see it or not. people talking like ross got some buzz now but mmg pretty much one foot in the grave. people dont really even know about the last mmg album or cared and ross new album has minimal to zero buzz even with the constant payola. its gonna be comedy on here if jeezy outsells this nikka again somehow

you n!ggas and your phantom promotion budget arguments...top 3 fugazzi messageboard argument talking point going in the game right now ...cats will just flat out make up some sh!t in their head, build an argument around it, and then stand behind that sh!t like the gospel

Like ole boy said earlier, Ross is promoting himself, Ross been talking bout mastermind since a month after gfid dropped. I dont beleive all this Ross got backing and Jeezy don't, that seem like bullshyt to me. Jeezy could easily go out there and promote his shyt..............when the last time you seen a jeezy interview? Ross been on the breakfast club and hot 97 about 2 or 3 times just in the past couple months. He was pushing Mastermind before he had a release date.

What jeezy new album called? Hell jeezy even said it himself, dude aint even wanna get on twitter and promote his own shyt.......he said twitter is like snitching or some silly shyt like that, and he aint fukk with it , which I respect.

But nikkas cant be out here saying Ross getting the backing at def jam and jeezy aint when ross is constanly promoting his music and his artists and his brand and jeezy aint.

you got some points and like dude said definitly ross is a better self promoter for himself and his artists.(dont know who gave jeezy that atlantic job) but if you wanna act like ross aint have a open budget for awhile to save face from def jam to combat all his fraudelence and 50 constantly sonning him in real life then i dont know what to tell u

 

[The Devil's Advocate]

I thought he got his position at atlantic records

I don't understand how dude cant get a release date. I mean Ross got one and they sell about the same amount of records these days.

ummmm jeezy got 3 plat albums and his latest went gold

ross got 1 gold album.... period


this is what i was telling nikkas in the mixtape thread... you think them shyts is throwaways if you want to.. there's a reason ross stays in constant rotation with the mixtape, mixtape, mixtape, album formula.. even those his albums are always duds

 

[kingstl]

Jeezy washed up....
he thinks he's more than what he is

he hardly does mixtapes, his label is trash, he doesn't do enough self promo...

Dude needs to sign to MMG....lmao

 

[10:31]

Port Of Miami is plat

Trilla is very close to plat

Teflon Don is close to plat

Depper Than Rap is Gold

God Forgives, I don't is Gold

Wale's Ambition is Gold

Meek Mill is almost Gold

Self made 1-3 are major retail albums

and the nikka somehow got Def Jam to drop Triple Cs as a major retail album

Mastermind is the last album Ted eats off of. Ross is about to go wild after he drops the last album in his deal.

I feel bad for Young, all he did was drop dope music aside 103 and he deserves better than this. Def Jam is fukking up

 

[Soundwave]

Ross Hot, Jeezy not.

Def Jam gonna back a winner, ain't no loyalty.

DEEZ nikkaS GON HOLD HIS TRACKS
DEEZ nikkaS GON HOLD HIS TRACKS
DEEZ nikkaS GON HOLD HIS TRACKS
DEEZ nikkaS GON HOLD HIS TRACKS

As far as DJ is concerned, 4th quarter belongs to Rozay, hate it or love it.

But Jeezy outsold Ross last album? Why should the 4th quarter belong to Ross?

 

[10:31]

Ross just took his brand to another level. At this point, Ross/MMG as a brand is eating whatevers left at the table in music after EM.... Jay/Ye, Nicki/Wayne/Drake....Kendrick

J.Cole is a gold artist, so is Wale and Meek is right behind him. The label is still growing signing young producers and artists.

Thats just music

All those other joint deals hes doing with drinks and clothes movies etc is just icing on the cake.

washed up but 103 sold more than ross last album you funny

 

[Hood Critic]

Because his brand is bigger and ultimately makes more money for the label because of his 360 deal.

every ross album went gold, and thrilla sold as much as the recession(none of them are plat)

ross is self promo at its finest, during the time the CO shyt came out ross start proming his own shyt heavy cause the label wasnt backing him, he leaked mafia music, which had him talked about all over the net and real world alot, and then proceeded to leak half his album

next he put his CCC nikkaz on, and made a entire double disc mixtape wit them, and got them a release date, then he came back and released another solo mixtape which spawned bmf and mc hammer, and then the label got behind TF heavy, and it did pretty good

next signed some up and coming rapper(before he really had a real label deal), and released another mixtape with had the streets poppin with 9 piece and then put meek and wale on 2 of those songs, which he shot low budget videos for

and then got his label deal and made a crazy street and industry buzz wit sm1 and launch wale and meek careers



if u look at 90% of dude videos it done by his own in house camera team, i remember dude was releasing videos daily, shyt was from mixtape songs and they shot the videos while they was own vacation, the nikka even shoots videos for other people songs who he featured own(kanye - devil in a new dress), dude just knows how to promo himself
