Jeezy - Seen It All: The Autobiography *Stream* (Discussion Thread)

[Crab Judah]

So, was second verse of 'Holy Ghost' at Kinky B? Sounded like it. It's not a perfect album, and I would have cut some tracks, and added others, but I don't expect perfection from albums or mix tapes, or anything….This is a dope, quality project….

Kinda makes sense now that you mention it, my first thought was Gibbs

This shyt is borderline wack to me. Imma give it a few more listens tho

 

[the kid]

Love the album. Only miss is the joint with Akon. Rest are dope to classic. Copped me a copy.

After a bunch of listens I can finally say how I feel about it. Jeezy a top 5-7 rapper for me.

It goes hard, but like the last album, he doesn't have those HIT radio songs, but the overall project is good so that's good. If I recall correctly, its better than TM103 which had a lot of hard songs (Everythang, Nothing, OJ) but a lot of duds too.

The only track I aint feeling is Black Eskimo and the one with August Alsina is meh. The one with Future is surprisingly good.

My top 5: Seen It All, Beautiful, 4 Zones, Enough, Holy Ghost

I got the version that dont got the YG and Kelly Rowland tunes, they good?

compared to tm 101, it's trash. Compared to 90% of the crap on the radio now it's absolute Piff. Y'all need to stop hating.

[True Blue Moon]

This shyt snap

 

[Idaeo]

I just got the Deluxe version on ITunes the other day. I've listened to it all the way through a few times in the whip....it knocks to me. I didn't like the Akon joint...and I really only didn't like his part. The Boosie song is kinda corny too.

4 Zones, Beautiful, 1/4 Block, Seen It All, Holy Ghost, & Black Eskimo are the standouts...

I think jeezle dropped a classic


first of win is a win

I hope my words they insipre ya, spoke like a true leader
The first to admit life's more than two seaters
Man oh man how my priorities fukked up
Remember nights I'm passin' out in the Rari, too fukked up
My nikkas say spend it cause you can't take it witcha'
Same time poppin' Cristal, posing for pictures
Ol' smart ass nikka, half right and half wrong
Only problem is he still here and the money gone

came in here with this song in my head

All in all I fux wit the album...few too many fillers but the good shyt is good shyt

I think tracks like 'Holy Ghost' and 'No Tears' and a lot the content throughout, shows a much more nuanced and stripped down Jeezy, losing some of the flossing and softer edges, and getting into the darker side of a hustlers psyche, even tracks like '4 Zones' have a haunting tone to them, 'The Inspiration' was great, and showed the first glimpses of Jeezy stepping up his craft, tracks like 'Dreamin' are the groundwork for this album.

Those songs were still very much anthems about hustling, much more glam and glitz.. and they sounded great, and are, but this is an artists progression, I mean it's jeezy and it's street, but thats what it is. This is past the bottles and booths and designer shyt, and into the near nihilism of a hustlers mind state.

[Verse 3]
Said I’m sitting here
Staring at the bottom of this Visionware
And I swear I can see my dreams
As the water boil, see a little clearer
Eyes red, nikka might need some Visine
Game got a nikka head throbbing, nikka might need some Advil
Feds picked up my nikka and his baby mama
Last night shyt was mad real
