How did Jeezy answer ?

[@jomama2938]

Fr true that's why jeezy fake. Gucci came in the game hood but didnt start with nobody. Jeezy started all this over jealousy about a song and was runnin around the cthagod question . Look at every artist beside hoegotti which is another RAPPER gucci help their career so icy was jeezy first hit ever ! . But look alll the artist that came under gucci umbrella from jeezy hogotti nicki waka oj ythug peewee migos 21savage metro mikewill the list goes on even the new young era hiphop rappers confirms gucci was their favorite rapper and never had nothin bad say just that gucci work ethic is what made them better. Plus jeezy kept dodging gucci that's been confirm by former cte members. But like magas supporters jeezy fan dont see wrong in jeezy like how they view trump....for gucci attitude . Jeezy blacked ball & TRY KILL Gucci like they did pac. but he wont admit to that ... gucci energy is the same as pac when he try warn us bout gay z diddy BIGGIE that their fake and not for the ppl but no One would listen just spoke bad on gucci n pac or was only view when they both spazzed plus I find it funnier jeezy drop album that same night jeezy did it for sell he didnt do it for king von or the young ones.

The 4 ward area which is Zone 5 and pretty much where Downtown and Midtown meet is unique because it's hood and rich at the same time.. Because most of the area is considered Historical and has been gentrified, but a good chunk especially the Bedford Pines area and Linden Ave and stuff is still hood..

It's times like this when I really hate the internet. All these people online clowning Jeezy calling him soft only because they wanted violence and ignorance. Jeezy could have responded to "Truth" with "Stay Strapped" and then that would have made this whole thing useless. We've seen them go back and forth and be children. This was a time to show growth and grow up for the future generations to see. It's already been reported that Gucci said he regretted what he did. Y'all need to stop trying to create more violence. It doesn't take a "real man" to shoot guns and kill people. Anyone can do that. We see literal kids on the news everyday doing it. Jeezy saluted Gucci and Gucci immediately saluted him back with no hesitation at the end. They probably won't ever be friends or buddy buddy but they left in a good space. I don't like how everyone is painting the picture as if Gucci is really from the streets and Jeezy is just an artist protected by the streets. I'm assuming y'all don't know who Mojo is and haven't heard what he has said about Gucci (which is weird because if you are a Gucci fan you should know who Mojo is)

I love how society has come to the point where you now make the victim sound like the bad guy. Gucci life was threatened and he acted accordingly, he has the right to be petty or immature forever. He earned that

[@Clemsontiger21487]

You’re right for everyday civilians. But a superstar like Gucci has a brand and image to protect and portray since his platform is huge. He can be petty, but you can’t get away with bragging about murder (self defense) and look like a role model doing it. It’s a lose lose really. I’m more of a Jeezy fan but that whole story and Beef made Gucci a monster. I think he needed to get it off his chest

Right, Jeezy has more classics. But Gucci is relevant and has newer hits. Check their monthly subscriptions on streaming sites, KZbin views, etc. What current hits does jeezy have? Jeezy has one classic album and two classic mixtapes. Other than that his music was mid.

[@KingofTeez]

Jeezy has more pop hits

[@damaine3209]

Nah, Jeezy has more mainstream hits in his prime.... they're basically equal as far as classics go. From a trap music perspective Gucci shoulda won because he has more influential and underground trap records. Gucci just needed to pick better songs.

Round 1 is a very old song. Gucci left off a lot of hits because he went for the diss songs. He didn’t play “Freaky Girl”, “Used To”, “Black Beatles”, Pretty Girl”, “On Deck”, “Coca Coca”, “Shopaholic”. I understand though, he had to get that shit off his chest. Side note: the “Standing Ovation” vs “I Think I Love Her” round is not as cut and dry as y’all make it out to be. Y’all would have to be around to understand what that song did when it dropped and how the women would go ape shit when Ester Dean’s verse came on.
