Well it wasn't really a beef, but they've had there deference's, with Jeezy taking a offence to "Hip Hop Is Dead" and saying Nas has "no street credability" and with Nas saying he just worked with his girl (Keyshia Cole) for her last album. In The end Young Jeezy stopped at MTV in an interview and spoke on "The Recession" and the song "My President" featuring the Queens MC.
They haven't always seen eye to eye — especially when Nas declared that hip-hop was dead — but God's Son and the Snowman are pretty much in accord right now. In recent weeks, they've partied together, discussed life and politics, and now, recorded their first collaboration. Nas guests on Jeezy's September 2 LP, The Recession, appearing on "My President Is Black."
"Nas is on that joint by the way," Mr. 17.5 told us during the Ozone Awards. "Murdered it. Esco went in! Esco is a cool n---a, though. I can't even front. He's a thorough n---a. He went in on the record. I don't know what you're gonna think of it. ... I can't even begin to tell you what he said. I'm just telling you, Esco went in."
While publicly telling activists Reverend Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson that their days of leading the black community are over, the Queens master of rhyme anoints Jeezy and himself as two of the new leaders.
"I'm always in the 'hood, I'm always in the community," Jeezy explained. "I'mma say this and be frank: A lot of cats come up from the 'hood ranks, and everybody wanna rep the 'hood. Everybody wanna say they did this and that. ... When Nas repped me, I feel a way. I'm a cat from Georgia. He's from New York City, so if he can respect my gangsta, I definitely can respect his and anybody around him. That's why I respect New York so much and Chi-Town. Detroit, same thing, they respect my gangsta." ...
The Whole album is gonna be fire, September 2nd (or hopefully earlier) get The Recession!!!
