Video: Coach K says Jeezy was bigger than Hov at one point

[FukkaPaidEmail]

what’s controversial about this ?

 

[Sugarbush]

Are you nikkas serious?! Jeezy was definitely bigger than Hov at one point, ESPECIALLY in the south. Hov the GOAT but he has never been the hottest in any era

 

[Mag Wheel]

Another southern bumpkin saying some bama ass shyt.

 

[CoCKy GeNiuS]

Summer 05 Jeezy was the biggest. Matter of fact June 05 till spring 06 when T.I. KING Jeezy was the one.

"I believe it"

 

[Billy Ocean]

Replies like these show me who's really Black and who was really outside with the target demographic aka young Black people.

It ain't hard to believe if you lived it. What a time to be alive.

Yea, even in NY everybody and their mother was playing Jeezy around when 101 came out. Schools even was banning those snowman tshirts because kids all over was wearing them. Jeezy was really BIG for a couple years.

 

[Big Boss]

Man I thought you meant duke former coach

 

[Devil Plisken…CMS]

Not that far fetched. Around 2005 and '06 Jeezy was really big. He's saying "at that point" so I'm assuming he's talking about those years.

No question…but even then you have to preface your statement. Kingdom Come was bullshyt but still had a huge marketing campaign and sold almost 700k first week. Does he mean around the way?

Jeezy was the first southern nikka I can recall getting played like he was from the boros. nikkax played that shyt front to back

 

[Guvnor]

That man ignorant and lying.

I would say he was bigger than Gucci though nationally and may still be.

 

[re'up]

Summer/late fall 2005

yeah

maybe even though 2006 too. Jay was kinda off that time.

 

[vino]

He was, that mixtape and first album was everywhere. Them snowman shirt. Jeezy had his whole damn album running on the radio.

 

[Ziggiy]

Coach K must be smoking crack

 

[BK The Great]

These takes some of these outlets put out are horrible. Jay had UGK & Scarface on his songs early on, those are staple artists of the south. Maybe they didn’t know much about him but it didn’t start with just Jeezy.

I mean Jay was "retired" when Jeezy Blew
