Jeezy posted several Twitter updates yesterday (November 12) regarding Def Jam Records.
Jeezy said that he’s been working on his new album for two years for his fans. Jeezy said people within Def Jam Records are “playing games.” The rapper also said that if the imprint does not “get this right,” his fans will receive an early Christmas gift.
Jeezy’s Twitter updates can be viewed below.
Jeezy has released several albums via Def Jam Records, including 2005’s Let’s Get It: Thug Motivation 101, 2006’s The Inspiration, 2008’s The Recession and 2011’s TM:103 Hustlerz Ambition.

“his fans will receive an early Christmas gift. ”
No they won’t. What fans does he have left? They all gone to Rick Ross, the realest nigga on the streets.
so why did Jeezy’s last album sell more first week than Ross and over 100k more total with half the promotion and label support?
“so why did Jeezy’s last album sell more first week than Ross and over 100k more total with half the promotion and label support?”
Jeezy does pop music which sells more than true hiphop. Drake is the winner this year in that respect because he does true hiphop.
Jeezy’s verses have been on point lately.Most of his stuff is trap or pop but every remix he did has been fun. That’s the point of a remix though
Lol at this clown calling Rozay the realest nigga on the streets. That’s an oxymoron.
the trolls are hilarious. anyone who is more successful than their fav rappers is pop. but somehow Drake isnt pop despite his success
Realest nigga on the streets, GTFOH!! A manufactured, fake drug dealer who never sold drugs, was a CO and lied about it, plus can’t rhyme for ish…BTW Jeezy sucks too, but get outta here with that BS…
“so why did Jeezy’s last album sell more first week than Ross and over 100k more total with half the promotion and label support”
For the same reason that Ross released his last album on Maybach/DefJam and did the overall bulk of the promotion himself with his own team.
Two similiar artists based on content but vastly different artists in terms of business acumen and hustle.
LMAO nigga quit trying to act like you give a shit about your fans; even if that shit drops when you want it to it’ll flop like a mothafucka cause no one cares about you anymore
It’s weird how they would hold up this dudes album when they put out artists who don’t sell shit like Ghostface, Redman, Method Man, Sheek Louch
even Officer Ricky sold less than Jeezy last time out and Jeezy aint have near the promo or label support but fat boy got a release date
It’s easier. When an album is not expected to sell then they can just put it out. When an is expected to sell, they want to go about it the right way to maximize profits which entails building buzz and laying down an infrastructure of marketing to ensure maximum hype before they put it out.
The label isnt holding up the album they just drop the artists who have their shit together first and the ones that have the single buzzin or a buzz in general.
Thats why 2-Chainz was able to drop two albums damn near back to back.
They dropped Big Sean and Pusha T this year and got a Gold with Kanye but other than that they been quite and the hidden truth is that they actually want to drop YG before they drop Jeezy.
jeezy would easily outsell 2 chainz, big sean and pusha t without even trying
Fuck can jeezy say has he ever put out any artist he fucked around slick pulla all them other cte niggas and Freddie gibbs now he got that YG nigga who aint gon put out shit CTE.
One the worst labels ever especially wit the money jeezy makes he could afford to release sumthing more than EP Mixtapes
not everyone is cut out to be a label owner and a boss. some cats are better at just making music
Some dudes call themselves “hustlers” but lack true hustle. Jeezy has beef with his producers, his former artists and his former manager, he is a terrible person to do business with and this is the music business.
Still makes good music tho
still sells more than anyone on MMG too
Give Jeezy props his CTE label is up and running while G-Unit is non existent.
no one talking about G-unit you weirdo
give 50 props his label is dead and still made more than everyone on CTE and MMG
Jeezy still will outsell Ross.
You wished.
@^: Jeezy has nothing but Platinum albums and Rozay is only a Gold selling rapper. So stop stanning lame.
Ross ain’t pop unlike Jeezy.
jeezys last album aint plat, its only gold
every jeezy album has sold more than any of ross’s albums…
again. im not a ross fan but thats not true. Port of Miami has sold more than TM103. different times i guess though.
teflon don also sold more than TM103. If you gonna hate do some research
Ain’t nothing pop about Jeezy.
ross blackballed tht nigga
ross aint got enough pull to blackball anyone except wale and stalley
Its not anything petty its just the climate of the rap game, Def Jam and other labels aint gonna hold your hand and do all your promo and marketing for you, you gotta get up and do it yourself like
Mac Miller does. Jeezy need to step his game up.
These days I’m not sure if the “I’m gonna leak my album if the label doesn’t get it together” holds much validity. The label then knows you’ll have to go back to the drawing board to make something else. So in essence wouldn’t Jeezy only be hurting himself. Even if an album doesn’t sell well, IMO you can justify it by saying “at least it’s better than releasing it for free”.
Jeezy does pop music which sells more than true hiphop. Drake is the winner this year in that respect because he does true hiphop.
None of the above is true. Drake is true hiphop like cigarretes are healthy.
Drake running rap right now. Eminem running pop.
You got it backwards.
Jeezy should release it for free like Ross did with Rich Forever, fuck it, why sit on 200 songs and go ice cold when you can release your music for free and then go on tour and get paid.
Fuck the label, get your own film crew, get your own promotions & marketing crew, go on tour build your buzz and eat nigga!
fuck it maybe he should just go get a job with atlanta corrections too
yeah put out a fire mixtape and a trash album. thats brilliant!
?? Anon2 why would he do that when he is a millionaire? Are you smoking Meth again? Jeezy should never have To work a 9to5 after dropping two Plat albums.
“go on tour and get paid”
unless real gangsters extort your ass and make you cancel half your tour. or was that due to low ticket sales?
it was a joke moron. nigga said jeezy should do what ross does so i said maybe he should become a cop too while he at it
Jeezy is eating champ. He was right beside Ross and Mac Miller on the bottom of the forbes list only he didn’t release an album or have a label releasing multiple projects last year.
A lot of wired people in the comments, that usually dont happen on a Jeezy story.
G Unit lames talking about cops & corrections instead of the actual story as usual.
Your touring never stops except when janky promoters either jerk you or you are too high of a risk for them to insure the venue for the show.
Yes Jeezy is eating, do you think your publishing, royalties, guest-verses and singles/albums sales stop if you don’t release an album or a project?
Are we stupid now?
BruthaDee caping for his boy as usual
nigga still making excuses for Ross cancelling that tour. wasnt no janky promoters. it was low ticket sales and being a pussy nigga
THE MMG TOUR (HIS 1ST SOLO TOUR) BOMBED DUE TO POOR TICKET SALES IN DADE COUNTY. ALSO THREATS TO HIS LIFE FROM THE GD’S WHICH HAD HIM SHOOK. WHICH ENDED IN CANCELLING THE REST OF THE MMG TOUR.
NOW HE HAS TO GO THE THEATER ROUTE TO BE SAFER AND HOPE HE CAN MAKE SOME MONEY THAT WAY.
OTHERWISE HE HAVE TO GO BACK TO OPENING FOR YOUNG MONEY AGAIN ON THEY TOURS. CUZ THERE AINT NEVER GONNA BE A MMG TOUR AGAIN.
SMOKE AND MIRRORS OFFICER ROZAY……WE SEE YOU.
OFFICER RICKY IS AN INTERNATIONAL ARTIST HE JUST DROPPED CONCERT FOOTAGE OVER THE LAST YEAR OF HIM TOURING IN AFRICA, BAHAMAS, THE MIDDLE EAST AND EUROPE.
HE JUST DID A SOLD OUT SHOW IN DETROIT AND ONE IS SCHEDUALED TONIGHT FOR BOSTON.
TICKET SALES IN DADE COUNTY, LOLOLOLOL STOP DOING SHROOMS TONY YAYO
THIS PRESENT TOUR IS CALLED THE MASTERMIND TOUR, HE IS BRINGING A LIVE BLACK BAND AND THEIR WILL BE DEATH THREATS FROM THE GDS IN EVERY CITY ON THE TOUR AND ROZAY WILL STILL MAKE ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY MORE RESTUARANTS.
OFFICER RICKY STILL OUT HERE GETTING MONEY AND EATING GOOD LIKE A BAWSE!!!!!!!
selling out lil ass theaters aint shit to brag about. especially in bum ass detroit they got nothing else to do
why cant ross sell out a real venue
How ya like the Karma Jeezy? You thought you could shit on Meechie, Big Sam, Coach K and Kinky B huh?! You shitted on Gangsta Gibbs and he still dropped his album before you fucknigga.
and that shit went plastic LOL
anyone can put out an album and watch that shti flop
FREDDIE GIBBS – Evil Seeds Grow Natural : 4,313
Gibbs probably still touring just to pay for the beats off that shit
Whats the math on selling 4,000 albums for $10 a whop?
a lot less then you would think once itunes gets their cut not to mention all the producers, engineers, features, music videos
“fuck it maybe he should just go get a job with atlanta corrections too”
Felons can’t get jobs.
That’s bullshit … the trap is a job for a felon lol
Felons can get jobs just not good jobs.
Calling your label heads out won’t make it come out faster. His last album didn’t sell as well as past one’s, so I bet the album comes, just not anytime soon.
Everything jeezy released has been successful! Ross shit be floppin
Ross last few albums been in the top 10 selling hip-hop albums of the year I wouldnt say flopping but def not living up to all his hype
Ross albums are always in the Top 10 for the year in HipHop but that is not what is impressive, what is really impressive is that the rappers he signed are in the Top 10 for their year and his labels compilations are in the Top 20.
A lie.
LOL 2 rappers barely making the top 10 aint that impressive when you look at the numbers
Niggas come from nothing, and the top ten in anything aint impressive? Fans!!! lol smdh!!I guess when niggas have number one albums in the country, thats not impressive either huh?
not when the music is trash like meek mills album
Don’t be surprised if Def Jam starts to clean up house since the trap music cashflow is running dry. They gonna start looking rappers that can actually rap like the next Kdot, Drake or even Em.
YES! That’s wat they should do
yeah thats why they signed Logic

fuck def jam they holdin methodman back
it aint def jam,Jeezy its your that Dr.Seuss cat in the trap rhyme style…pick up a book,learn some wordz
why would he switch up now and not do what got him where hes at
I think its fucked up Def Jam let Ross used a 5 year old Young Jeezy song for the first single off his new album. LOL
DJ Squeeky should sue J.U.S.T.I.C.E. League for biting
Jeezy retire already garbage joker! you full of excuses it takes u two years to drop an album
lots of people take more than that. whats the rush he was on forbes list next to the niccas who put out albums so i doubt he cares what you think
Oh so the Forbes list dictates when you give your fans the music they want? Jeezy is a shitHead.
…LOL…”UR ALBUM PUSHED BACK COZ IT INT BUZZIN”…LOL
ITS 2013 AND THAT DISS STILL RELEVANT AND APPLIES TO HOMMIE,FUCKIN TURTLE NINJA,…YO WATCH OUT FOR MASTERMIND THE ALBUM DROPPING NEXT MONTH. BAAAWWWWSEEEEE HUH!!!
I like how that fat nigga said that shit then got his album pushed back like twice. GFID got pushed back then sold less than Jeezy first week and overall
thats called a LOSS
-In early October, Ross published the first promotional picture of God Forgives, I Don’t on his Tumblr page, which showed a release date of December 13, 2011.
-Rick Ross revealed the title of the album on January 4, 2011 during an interview with the Breakfast Club,
-Rick Ross said that the December 13 date was still tentative, but the album was likely to be pushed back to a 2012 release because of the health scare he suffered in October
-After much anticipation and an initial push back, Ross announced that the album would be released on July 31, 2012
FAT BOY PUSHED HIS SHIT BACK 7 OR 8 MONTHS BUT HE WANNA TAKE SHOTS AT NIGGAS WHO SELL MORE THAN HIM THATS JOKES TO US
THATS SOME CLOWN ASS SHIT TAKIN SHOTS AT A REAL NIGGA FOR DELAYING HIS SHI THEN DOING THE SAME THING WHEN YOU START SEIZURING LIKE A BITCH
just one point on a long list of Rick Ross and MMG’s L’s
The angry CTE flunked is a dreadlocked Englishman named “Whyte” hes supposedly a Crip.
If I say “Ya shit pushed back ’cause you aint buzzin” its perfectly fine for you to retort: “Well yah dude you delayed the release of your album after health complications”.
Its open to your own interpretation if you believe that getting pushed back due to lack of buzz or delaying release due to health issues are the same.
Its interesting that so many G Unit fans are Jeezy fans all of a sudden…….I wonder why.
LOL pushing your shit back 8 months cause your so out of shape is laughable. Jeezy still sold more first week and overall so miss me with that lack of buzz shit. and Im not a G-Unit fan in the slightest although I respect them real niggas more than Officer Ricky

At least GFID came out and went gold. Street King is four years old and still without a date. That’s the ultimate loss.
“LOL 2 rappers barely making the top 10”
G Unit ain’t making the top 100. Is that more impressive to you?
i told you its impressive that with no release he still making more than all of these bums
“give 50 props his label is dead and still made more than everyone on CTE and MMG”
He made one million more than Ross. Wale makes 50k a night. Meek has had more exposure than 50. Curtis may have the past achievements, but in 2013, nobody cares. Meek could be worth 100,000 and still get more respect than anyone on G Unit.
funny cause Meek Mill got mad respect for 50 and G-Unit despite being signed to Ross the fraud!! Meek will tell you 50 one of the realest niggas in rap.
1 million is 1 million. thats without an album, a the so called hottest label in the game with a stable of niggas working for him
“i told you its impressive that with no release he still making more than all of these bums”
How are MMG bums? They’re steady making money. It might not be on the level of what Curtis used to make, but they aren’t hurting. It’s better to build a body of work and make some millions than to make it fast then flame out.
how did he flame out if hes still making more than everyone whos “building a body of work” without even trying????
“funny cause Meek Mill got mad respect for 50 and G-Unit”
That’s because he’s too scared to speak his mind.
are you saying a real steet nigga like Meek is afraid of 50 cent? Damn that speaks volumes!
“1 million is 1 million. thats without an album, a the so called hottest label in the game”
1 million is 1 million, but 50 should have signed a new deal by now. T.I. wants what, $70 mill? There was a time 50 could have gotten that in his sleep.
just cause a nicca wants 70 million dont mean he gonna get anywhere near that
who in their right mind who sign T.I. to a 70 million dollar deal when his last album barely went GOLD LOL
at this point in his career T.I. would be lucky to sign a 360 deal for 5 million
