Editorial Reviews

2011 release from the Hip Hop star. No matter what is being supplied, a hustler is only as good as his word. With Atlanta serving up some of the hottest product in the Rap game, native son Young Jeezy stands as one of the most exciting merchants of cool to emerge in years. In his native Atlanta, and throughout the south, Young Jeezy has created nothing short of a movement. What sets Young Jeezy's music apart is his ability to bring color and flash to a story that has been told so many times before. He's a true digital age artist who doesn't need 16 bars to develop a picture in your head. When he snaps off a verse the image is simple enough for everyone to feel it instantly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid album after the long wait December 20, 2011

By L. Graham

Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase

I said I would wait until the official release date before I put up a review, so here it is.

WAITING - If you are a Young Jeezy fan, then you are aware he knows how to begin an album or mixtape. This one is the weakest intro, and it still didn't disappoint. It's no "Hypnotize" or "Trap or Die", but great intro for things to come. 9/10

WHAT I DO - Dark beat, Jeezy is nice on this song. Production is great on this song. 8/10

OJ - Great beat for all three artists. Fabolous and Jeezy's flows complement each other well, as shown by the numerous songs they've done together. Jadakiss was a pleasant addition to the mix, and made the song a repeat. 10/10

NOTHIN - Great song to listen to when people trying to make you feel guilty about things you've acquired. The chorus is a bit pedestrian, repeating Nothin but the message is nice and the feeling is there. 8/10

WAY TOO GONE - Sounds like a song Drake would do at the beginning, when the beat dropped, it really helped. It's pretty good, but not spectacular. Future fits on the music, but he sounds weird and doesn't sound right with Jeezy. 6/10

SUPAFREAK - If you are looking for a track to rock the audio system, this one is it. Great track and 2Chainz brings great energy to the song. 7/10

ALL WE DO - Take it or leave it track. Nothing to rave about. 4/10

LEAVE YOU ALONE - One of those songs I thought would be weak, but Neyo actually complements Jeezy and Jeezy actually sounds genuine. 8/10

EVERYTHANG - West Side sound, not a terrible song, nothing special about this song. 6/10

TRAPPED - The highlight of the album. Ethereal music, Jill Scott's spoken word is chilling to hear and Jeezy's history has a lot of feeling behind it. This song is a case in point in simplicity and powerful emotions are more important than fancy wordplay with no substance. I had to force myself past the song, it's that good. 10/10

F.A.M.E. - Mellow song, seeing the perspective of what really goes on in the mind of a successful person. Jeezy does a great job with this song, pulling back on his energy and talk about being insecure with the anger, which is rarely heard in this. TI comes strong on her as well. 10/10

I DO - This song, while a nice homage to Lenny Williams, doesn't really mesh well. The verses are good in themselves, and it feels as if they were meant to be standalone. A lot of people will really like this, however, Jay Z and Andre go out in left field as usual. 7/10

HIGHER LEARNING - Laid back music, Snoop reverts back to his old days, Devin made a nice mark on the track, but it feels like a short track. You can lie back, the track will be fading, and realize you didn't hear the song. Shame, because it is a good song, but I had to listen three times before I could review it. 8/10

THIS ONE'S FOR YOU - it's one of those songs the message is there, but not delivered in the way it would be remembered. 7/10

38 - This song is crazy. Jeezy does it on this song. Freddie Gibbs is a beast on the beat. Gibbs had a nice flow on this. 9/10

BALLIN - This song lost points because Wayne really was better than Jeezy on this song. Jeezy could have stepped it up past "I bought the Phantom just to take a nap", especially with a wicked Lex of a beat he had to work with. Wayne, on the other hand, showed his inconsistency and delivered a gold verse among the questionable songs he made around the same time. Points are always lost when a feature is the reason people listen to a song. 5/10

LOSE MY MIND - This song is just as fun as it was when it came out two years ago. Jeezy really put something down on this one. Plies, while not as bad as originally thought, still hurt the song by his screaming through the whole verse. 9/10

NEVER THE SAME - Really cool song, just reiterates what he was saying and people didn't get for years--that he wasn't promoting drug dealing. Music has a dark quality to it. Bonus is the rumor of Eminem being on here is false. The concept needed him to be alone, and it was executed well. 10/10

DVD - Personally, I've seen many documentaries or rappers, and this one is in the top 3 I've ever seen. Maybe they could have talked more about the beef with Gucci, but all in all, very informative. 10/10

Album pros - Lots of emotion. Production arguably the best on this one, more cohesive than the others. A few average songs, one subpar.

Album cons - Not enough adlibs other than the "103", doing the Eminem thing and singing on tracks, many features where several of them (namely, Jay Z, Future, Plies, and arguably Andre (yeah I know, my opinion)) could have been dropped and had stronger songs.

Highlight songs:

Trapped
OJ
FAME
Never Be The Same
Waiting

8.7/10

5.0 out of 5 stars The Real Is Back December 20, 2011

By B. Macleod

Format:Audio CD

Don't listen to the reviews that give this album 1 and 2 stars.They obviously have no idea what they are talking about.I have listened to this abum 5 times straight through now and I have to say I can't find much wrong with it.Wasn't thrilled he included Ballin' and Lose My Mind seeing as they were recorded a good while ago but other than that this album is straight fire start to finish.If you are a fan of Jeezy,just do yourself a favour and go spend the 15 dollars on it.

My Top 5:

Waiting
F.A.M.E
Trapped
OJ
Never Be The Same

5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 but they don't let you do half stars December 21, 2011

By Bespoke

Format:Audio CD

I'm going to make this one short and sweet. Jeezy like to drank, Jeezy like to smoke, Jeezy like to mix arm n hammer with his coke. LOL, for real though if you like Jeezy then you will love this album because he will never switch the style up. Even if everyone is making R&B Jeezy will still make street records and I love him for that. TM103 is one of his best albums and although it's not a classic I would definitely hold it up there with TM 101. Great album!!!
