![]() ![]() Breaking Down the “My President is Black” Beat (VIDEO)Posted by: Mark DiSalvo in Production, Video, tags: dow jones, my president is black, young jeezyTha Bizness just put out this video with Henny and Dow Jones breaking down the process of creating the beat to Young Jeezy’s “My President is Black.” This is probably one of the best “how I made…” videos there is, but notice how he never really tells you what the sounds are or how he got them (besides the programs). A true producer. There’s a super HD version here.

![]() ![]() More New Yeezy + Why He’s an “Alien”Posted by: Mark DiSalvo in Music, News, tags: 808s and heartbreak, kanye west, so amazing, young jeezySo there’s a bunch of new cuts floating around from 808’s and Heartbreak, which is less than 2 weeks away from release. There’s even a conference call someone recorded, for the real hardcore Ye stans. Download: Kanye West ft Young Jeezy- So Amazing But here’s my choice cut from the batch of leaks to hit the past few days: “So Amazing,” featuring Young Jeezy. Yep, there’s rappin’ on 808’s and Heartbreak, even though it’s not Ye. I won’t get started on the whole “ahh man, Ye isn’t rappin anymore,” because I don’t think he’s done rapping, and I’m all about letting artists do what they have to in the name of creativity. And for the latest on the gossip front, check out People Magazine’s latest interview with Mr. West after the jump, where he explains why he’s feels like an alien.

![]() ![]() Young Jeezy- CirculatePosted by: Mark DiSalvo in Music, tags: circulate, don cannon, the recession, young jeezyDownload: Young Jeezy- Circulate I’m just doing what the track says, I’m “circulatin’” it. I know how you all have been on the Jeezy tracks from his new album, out in stores next week. This one’s pretty hot, from production to delivery (it was produced by Don Cannon, by the way). Props to uheardthatnew. On an unrelated note, I just got back from Harlem to see Black Element and film a spot for him, check back later this week for the full coverage. Thanks El.

![]() ![]() Young Jeezy ft. Nas - “My President is Black”Posted by: Mark DiSalvo in Music, News, tags: my president is black, nas, the recession, young jeezyYoung Jeezy ft. Nas- “My President is Black” (produced by Tha Bizness) When I heard Young Jeezy was droppin’ this album, I didn’t think it’d get this much hype. But after the “Put On” joint, and this new track with Nas, I get it. And like I said before, Jeezy’s got my support against all the people looking to dumb-assify us all. The Recession is in stores September 2. Props to On Smash.

![]() ![]() This is what happens when you’re a commercial rapper trying to be the least bit political.Posted by: Mark DiSalvo in News, tags: the recession, young jeezy
If you haven’t heard by now, Young Jeezy’s new album is titled The Recession, and his latest video “Put On” features images of struggling Americans donning black and white flags in protest of the hard economic times. What exactly is the XXL writer getting at? The whole article has the attitude that Jeezy’s message is somehow invalid because he’s a multi-million dollar earner and rapper. God forbid someone with some influence tries to be smart and use their platform for protest or education. And who are these “critics” the writer is speaking of? Him? Journalists like to say “critics say” to get their opinion in when they shouldn’t (or they actually think someone cares). Good for you, Jeezy. It’s not like he’s going all out, but at least he’s speaking up about something. |
