He has skills, but he is not trying to up his game as an mc. He is a d-boy plain and simple. That's my problem with him. He needs to talk about something else. Most of his rhymes have to do with moving weight in the A. If you don't know anything about ATL, or slang for hustlin' you won't get what he's saying. His swag is ridiculous. When it comes to that, he actually helps Kanye out. I'm a Kanye fan, but in hiphop, good guys always try to keep a little cred by hanging with thugs. To me, it's unnecessary. Street cred is optional. A good mc can hold his own regardless of who helps him sell thug potential. Consistency and being real are always respected. Anybody saying Jeezy can’t rhyme is slipping.

The adlibs, the sample of a classical song, the bass. Scarface's "Guess Who's Back" is in my top 10 too. Put Ya Hands Where My Eyes can see is my number one.

One time I can listen to just the beat. The next, i focus on ‘Ye's verse. Another time, just Jeezy's. -----------------------------------------------------------------------Real rap. It took a couple spins but this song as a whole just grew on me. I enjoy a different element of the joint every time I hear it...but 'Ye's 16 is "super straight". I initially thought those were two run of the mill Jeezy verses but after repeated listens, you realize that they're deceptively simple but show that Jeezy hasn't grown complacent & is still tryng to step his game up lyrically. I still don't think they're his best bars, but there's kind of a clever "MC" swag to them where Jeezy sounds like he's actually "rapping". I miss the little intro before Kanye's verse though. Helps add some drama to the song which in turn woulda added some drama to the video. Great choice as a single too. Really…it’s one of those joints that has layers.
