Album Review: Seen It All by Jeezy

            Jeezy’s Seen It All LP has been released and it shows the ATL all-star’s journey from drug dealer to hiphop business man/OG.  This album is very retrospective, in that Jeezy looks back at his life.

            Snowman intros the LP with a street banger called “¼ Block” talking about his drug dealing past. Jeezy rides on this string led beat. The song is definitely on repeat for me.

            “What You Say” is a synth led beat, with staccato strings and trap 808s: perfect for a artist like Young Jeezy. This is the type of song you listen to if you want to get hype for a game.

            “Black Eskimo” is Jeezy’s new nickname. He is too cold for the game, and he shows it in this song. Jeezy brags on this track about what he has earned and done in his illustrious career. Certified banger.

            Going along with the Seen It All theme, “Enough” talks about how Jeezy has made it so far in his career. He also provides inspiration on the chorus by saying, “If you grind hard enough, you can stack a few mill”. The blaring horns really carry this track.

            “Holy Ghost” is probably my favorite track on the whole LP. When it first came out, I was playing this song over and over. Jeezy addresses many issues in this song, including the death of one of his crew members during the Gucci beef and the Freddie Gibbs split from CTE. Don Cannon and Lyle Leduff do work on this beat. It really puts you in the mood to grind.

            “Me OK” was the first single from Seen It All. This song just goes in. Drumma Boy crafts a beat that is vintage Jeezy.

            The Mike Will produced track, “4 Zones”, is about Jeezy saying that all he needs is “4 zones”. This track is also very interesting because it’s the first time we see Jeezy using autotune, which brings a different side to Snowman.

            The 8^th track is either “Addicted” or “Been Getting Money” depending on where you got it. The iTunes version has “Been Getting Money”, which is what I am reviewing. This song reunites the “Soul Survivor” duo Jeezy and Akon. Sounds like something that would on TM101 too. Love this song. Akon and Jeezy can’t do wrong.

            “Fuck The World” featuring the Def Jam R&B star, August Alsina, is the formulaic rapper/singer pairing. August kills the hook, and Jeezy shows that he doesn’t give a fuck about what people think about him.

            The song that brought JAY Z to tears when he wrote his verse, “Seen It All”, is probably one of Jeezy’s best songs. Cardo samples uses a Japanese sample to perfection, and Snowman and Hov go to work, especially Hov. Raw song, and probably the reason Jeezy named the album, Seen It All.

            One verse, and one epic beat. “Win Is A Win” is a song about perspective. Jeezy says that materialism is not the route, especially when you at the top.

            “Beautiful” was song I was not expecting from Jeezy, especially with Game and Rozay on it. But damn, this song is so soulful. Black Metaphor, who also produced Game’s best song ever “Ali Bomaye” in my opinion, crafts a sample based beat which “beautifully” carries all the verses. Ross, of course, sounds amazing on beats like these. Classic track.

            Boosie and Jeezy come together again for a singing laced, southern track called “Beez Like”. This song is about the hustle, which relates back to the theme of seeing it all

            “No Tears” is more into the pop music lane, which is in stark contrast of the usual Jeezy we all know. Future provides a non-autotune hook, which actually sounds very good. Solid track.

            The last track, “How I Did It(Perfection)”, is a fitting conclusion for the album. It provides closure to an album that is very retrospective. The chill beat allows Jeezy to story tell about his past.

            Seen It All was one of the most anticipated LPs of this year, and it delivered, but it was not enough in my opinion. Jeezy knows how to make great tracks, but he really hasn’t made a perfect body of work since TM101. Many magnificent tracks, but also some mediocre tracks. (4 out of 5 stars)
