It runs long in length at 19 tracks, but it’s still an enjoyable listening experience. “The shit I’m smoking on got me trippin’ please forgive me / The shit I’m sippin on got me trippin’ will you forgive me / Look you in your eyes when I’m talking know you hear me / Just listen to the words of the song I know you hear me / Cause ain’t nobody perfect in this world please forgive me.” He has a clear message on the track “Just Win” when he says “Win my nigga just win / It’s a dirty world, but that bitch still spin / And we don’t trust the preachers or the crooked politicians / The motherfuckers always talking they don’t ever wanna listen.” On “Forgive Me” he ask for forgiveness from his family and friends.

Towards the end of the album is when the redemption comes in.

On “Sister Good Game’s Testimony” it speaks out against black-on-black crime. Jessica Care Moore they speak out against the injustice of the police against black people. The songs make for great storytelling and Jeezy sounds better than ever lyrically. In the song “God” Jeezy gives us his view on how he is seen in his neighborhood in Atlanta. On the song “Holy Water” he metaphorically compares holy water to liquor that gets him through tough times in his life. On the song “Lost Souls” you can hear the spirituality as he talks about strippers and and drug deallers who met sad ends. In this album it contains messages of spirituality, politics and redemption. Now he’s back with a new album called “Church In These Streets.”ĭespite the album’s title it is not a gospel album, but a album for the streets and everyone caught up in the temptations that come with it such as fancy cars, clothes, strippers, liquor, drugs, money, etc. He’s even dropped the Young moniker and now simply goes by Jeezy. In those years, the Atlanta, Georgia Trap Star has consistently released gold and platinum albums. Young Jeezy has been in the Hip-Hop industry for over 10 years.
