He was a trapper that just happened to rap, at least that's one of the ways he tried to explained it. Jeezy was not a lyricist, hell he didn't even like being called a rapper. The album itself is considered a classic, not for its cohesion or lyrical depth, but rather for impact and its legacy as a seminal release during a tradition era of sorts in hip hop music.
