This leads us to his solo debut “Let’s Get it: Thug Motivation 101,” which sounds like a class WWE wrestler John Cena would teach if they allowed “Basic Thugonomics” at Harvard.

This proves the age old axiom “so stupid he’s smart” quite true, or perhaps shows that Young Jeezy knows what he’s doing far better than any of us do. For those who were not familiar with him it was here he established his alter ego of “The Snowman,” which he explained this way: “Get it? Jeezy the Snowman/I’m iced out, plus I got snow, man.” That’s about as clever as rhyming “gun” with “fun” but either in spite of or because of how inane it was the line was instantly memorable. Young Jeezy blew up his own profile by being the featured guest on Gucci Mane’s hit single “Icy” and basically stealing the spotlight by having the track’s first verse. Moving on – Young Jeezy already has a rep in the music industry as one-fourth of the rap supergroup Boyz N Da Hood, who themselves released a national debut album only a short time ago. Perhaps that’s why Bryan ‘Baby’ Williams changed his name to the Birdman, although a name that sounds like a cheesy comic book superhero is hardly an improvement.

literally means Baby Gangsta, and he’s way too old to be a Baby any more. Of course in his case the name is kind of ridiculous too since B.G.

Just one question before we get started: if he’s still in the rap game ten years from now, do we call him Old Jeezy? Now before you go suggesting he just drop then young and be “Jeezy,” like Lil’ Bow Wow did when he became Bow Wow, you have to keep in mind it would cause confusion with B.G., the rapper who these days prefers to be known as B-Gizzle or just plain Gizzle.
