you thought you was cooking....
"I been certified platinum
Think I'd rather make hits?
Between me and you I'd RATHER FLIP BRICKS!"
'2 record deals, but RADIO STILL WONT PLAY ME
But I dont give AF CAUSE ITS THE STREETS THAT MADE ME!"
Jeezy never was focused on mainstream appeal like TIP who is a true commercial rapper
JEEZY WAS ORGANIC AND ACCEPTED BY THE NON COMMERCIAL MASSES via his MIXTAPES prior to his commercial success
Just like Dipser and 50 cent was in NYC
you dont know Hip Hop you can't relate
You discovered the culture via datpiff and Netscape
While on was copping tapes outside on 5 points and hood club deejays milk crates
We not the same lil n1gga
Nobody watching that but weve all watched the crime stoppers video
The tipster
Tip damage his image the more he was on tv the more he looked corny
Because Jeezy, Gucci & Boosie are all authentically them, whereas T.I is corny with bad taste. As soon as he was exposed as such (tryna do comedy etc) his popularity waned dramatically.
20k posts in this thread alone says otherwise
I don't care for numbers, but overall I always preferred T.I.'s music over Jeezy. It was by a little tho, the gap isn't wide at all.
It's interesting because Jeezy had a larger start than T.I.
T.I.'s sh1t took some time to take off. I'm Serious and Trap Muzik didn't get it's flower that they deserve when they initially dropped.
Meanwhile Jeezy 1st commercial sh1t took off to the point that his Lil J sh1t and Come Shop With Me not even considered his real first releases.
Both had up and downs, but opinions aside, T.I. had higher highs than Jeezy. Jeezy interestingly bounced back in his latter years where T.I. has struggled to do so. Fans just don't flock back to T.I. since Paper Trail. It's like this weird resistance.
You can see it in his No Mercy and Paperwork roll outs. He was kinda being ignored.
Tip admitted Shawty Lo didnt even know who the fukk Tip was when he approached him for some work
And it was Tip UNCLE who later ran Club Crucial on Bankhead whom the streets knew as Lil Ricky and Big Bank and Alley and Shawty stated
And you didnt know of him till he started rapping
Boxden is the only streets you know
Informant/family man.. probably was the cause!
