Young Jeezy...The Saga Continues!!!!!!
Friday. 12.15.06 11:56 am
I just want to address one thing real quick before I move onto today’s topics. I read each and every one of you guy’s, (and ladies) comments yesterday. I even responded a few times, which is something that I plan on doing more often. The thing that I want to make clear about Young Jeezy’s “secret location” concert the other night is that I didn’t expect, nor should I have received any special treatment for his concert. While I am a published writer, that doesn’t mean anything when you’re on the red carpet—black in his case—and all your trying to do is get your story. But I do expect a certain amount of respect and loyalty from my Atlanta artists when they come home to perform and more importantly promote their product. T.I. is arguably the hottest, most in demand rappers out there, yet whenever I see T.I. at a party or event and I ask him for a response or a picture, he happily obliges. If T.I. can do it, then Jeezy can for damn sure do it.
If I may be honest for a moment – I felt completely honored that the people at The Garner Circle, my bosses here at Sohh.com, and Corporate Thugz Entertainment would allow a blogger to gain coveted media credentials and ultimately full access to such an event. However, many of you missed the point of my report. It wasn’t to “hate” on Jeezy or his “is she or isn’t she” girl Keisha Cole. It was to make a point at how Urban Entertainers needs to respect and treat Black press like we are White press, hell better even. I can almost guarantee you that if People, Us Weekly, Rolling Stone, or Comlpex magazine would have been there – Young Jeezy would’ve made it his obligation to come out and get all the media exposure he could get. However, that didn’t happen so I was left with no other choice but to write what I experienced. I admit that my report wasn’t very objective, but what can I say – I was pissed! Based on the some of the comments that I have read, I feel the need to point out my love for Atlanta! Make no mistake about that. But, by being a fan of hip-hop and a fan of professionalism and an overall well put together package, that wasn’t what was displayed to me on that night by the aspiring music mogul.
Ok I’m off my soapbox now on to the otha stuff. Here are some pictures the Atlanta Journal Constitution took of Jeezy’s event. If you notice you don’t see any outside pictures of the “Snowman”. That’s because he didn’t come out. YOUNG JEEZY PICTURES
