Police Chase
I've been looking around the nets for an hour or so, and I can find no mention whatsoever of this "two-hour police chase", especially one featuring an eighteen-wheeler or thirty-three squadcars. I live in Los Angeles, and also enjoy Jeezy's music, and have never heard anything of this sort. The scale of the information seems to indicate a rumour, i'm removing it until a verifiable, reliable source can be produced. Gilgamesh Rex 20:05, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

Song
In the song with Dreamin Keyshia Cole, he mentioned that he was born on September 28th, so don't change anything or it's getting reverted. Thank you. Georgia Peachez 02:13, 10 December 2006 (UTC) she fine

Add something about him being a trapstar
JEezy was a major trapper in the South —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Chavdean14 (talk • contribs) 20:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC).

Where's Trap Or Die!
Why isn't Trap or Die, the Gangsta Grillz Cd he did with DJ Drama mentioned? Icy with Gucci Mane came from that. So did the Trap or Die video and single, and he did blow up and get recognized from that CD. I know it's a mixtape, but it should still be mentioned.

if you go to the full discography page its on there under MIXTAPES. its not an album, so it cannot be put into the album category; the same reason you arent put in the smart category...come get it...Green420jdubb 15:53, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

young jeezy has been been dissed by Pimp c in a 1:14 song called WHAT —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.49.95.180 (talk) 07:21, 12 September 2007 (UTC) Oh now your a couple with her good maybe you will stop trying to find me. love always Brandy

about his beef with gucci mane..
I saw this on Beef on BET. Jeezy in a diss track against Gucci (i forgot the name) said he'd pay 10 grand for the one who got Gucci's chain for him. so he put a bounty on Gucci's chain so Gucci was kinda scared for his life and so one time these four men came into an apartment Gucci was in and were gonna rob him and possibly kill him but Gucci got a gun and went under the table and started firing. the four guys ran out and one guy died and his body was found in a forest. you should do more research on this to get more details —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.131.244.197 (talk) 20:33, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

About the part where four people came into Gucci Mane's junky apartment and started firing-- that's true. It's in the Gucci Mane article, I know that because I was the one who added it to the article (with citations); it's under the "Homicide Charges" section of the Gucci Mane article. As for the motive being a bounty on his chain, I haven't heard of that but it could be true, just gotta find a source about it. --Josh1billion —Preceding comment was added at 02:18, 3 November 2007

Mixtapes

Brothers in Arms
I've removed this supposedly future album because it's a clear cut case of WP:CBALL. It was deleted here and a brief mention in an interview isn't enough. So unless there's more comprehensive info like a release date, it shouldn't be included. Spellcast (talk) 02:11, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

Launches Social Network
Young Jeezy took a leap into the online trend on Wednesday (June 11) with the launch of USDA2Day.com, a new blog & social networking site created by the ATL rapper. According to Jeezy etlik , the site will serve as "the official media source for the hood." Source: http://www.ballerstatus.com/article/news/2008/06/4884/

Criminal Record
Seems harsh to give him a whole section for Criminal Record, when all he has is on arrest (he was acquitted) and one DUI. --Julian (talk) 21:32, 12 March 2009 (UTC)

- What is the deal with people trying to hide this information. Dude has admitted his damn self in his concerts, leave the shit alone.

- SEARCH IT ON YOUTUBE, DUMBASS. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Soglad2005 (talk • contribs)
 * Calling others "DUMBASS" does not help you make your case here, and, in fact, it only harms your credibility. SCREAMING like that generally has the same effect. I reverted most of your edit because it was unsourced or poorly sourced. Per WP:BLP, information about living people, especially negative content, must be well sourced. I left the bit about Jeezy being a fagggot. I have no real comment about that, but note that the burden of sourcing is on the person adding it, not the people removing it. Also, message boards and such are not reliable sources. Apparition11  Complaints / Mistakes  02:26, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Birth date
His birthday is September 28

He was born on September, 28 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_QdmhU3KcY). This song "dreamin" cites my proposal listen to his first line, "born September, 28 my life far from great." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.78.80.248 (talk) 15:42, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

Resistance to commercialism?! Yeah right
This article has maintained that Young Jeezy has "affirmed his resistance to commercialism" (or words very similar to that) for YEARS, since at least 2006. Listen to every song he does and just count all of the luxury-item corporations he shouts-out, while making an album titled The Recession trying to relate to everyday Americans struggling to survive in today's hard times. Some people might disagree with me, like whoever changed it back to the way it was after I edited that section back in 2006, but regardless, the link used as a source for this claim (source/link #6) is no longer a website. Take this ridiculous claim out now please. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.161.204.253 (talk) 19:21, 15 June 2009 (UTC)

Record Sales
This was a very interesting and informal article; in addition to the information provided, is there any record sales info, (such as platinum and/or gold records) on the previous page and if not where can I go to find the info?

Ps. He did say he was born Sept 28 on the Inspiration Album- Song: Dreamin f/Keysha Cole>

he is born September 28th

it can be heard in many songs, and just by googling his birthdate you can find many sources —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.209.209.129 (talk) 16:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Date of Birth
His date of birth isn't in the referenced source - is it correct? — GypsyJiver  ( drop me a line ) 15:48, 22 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Hi fellow editors...I'm so tired of this stupid issue he was born in October not September the source clearly states that....I can't keep coming back to babysit this article for a DOB...someone change it back. I don't have time today.Mcelite (talk) 04:06, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

hiv/aids + the inspiration
In the music career section, it states his album "The Inspiration" was named after his overcoming of hiv/aids. I've searched this to see if it is true and cannot find anything to confirm it. He has done concerts to support research, so it may have some significance to the album name..but I doubt he has it.

Edit request from Akbmoney, 26 July 2011
" On May 20, 2011, Young Jeezy announced a July 26, 2011 release date for TM 103.[21] However representatives from Def Jam Records fail to confirm this date." That information is since outdated, as new information has came in as of today, confirming a new album release date. Below is what I believe would be a better fit.

At a concert in New York City July 26, 2011 Jeezy revealed that the official release date for Thug Motivation 103 will be September 20, 2011. The concert, a celebration, was the six year anniversary of Jeezy releasing his first album. Jay-Z, Kanye West, Bun B, Fabolous, and the Lox all were on hand to celebrate/and or perform a song with the Snowman.

Edit request from Therealfluter, 12 August 2011
Jay Wayne Jenkins' (born October 12, 1977 - Should be modified. As stated in numerous articles and many of his songs, his birthday is September 28th, 1977.

Edit request on 29 November 2011 --Wrong Birthday: Here is proof.
Young Jeezy's birthday is not October 12, 1977 it is September 28, 1977. I do not know how many times he has stated his birthday in songs. I do believe that if anyone knows when his birthday is HE does. This is supposed to be a site with the correct information and his birth date is 100% wrong, except for the year. He has a documentary coming out with his new album TM103 which he wrote and is narrated by Samuel L. Jackson and in the beginning of the film he CLEARLY SAYS HE WAS BORN ON THE 28th of SEPTEMBER. Here is the documentary. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSY8yRHclXA&feature=player_embedded

 * Do you have any Reliable Sources for this? I can say in a song I have a billion dollars and that doesn't make it true. --Jnorton7558 (talk) 16:17, 29 November 2011 (UTC)


 * This is the best source so far. It's from his documentary (that he is selling with his album).  I trust his official documentary more than the songs or the random source that is there now.

Edit request on 20 July 2012
Young Jeezy aka Jay Jenkins was born on September 28, 1979. He was not born in the month of October. He states this in his song "Dreaming" which features Keyshia Cole. His opening line says, "born September 28th my life fought for great." Other websites also confirm that his birthday is on September 28th. http://gossiponthis.com/2011/09/29/young-jeezy-birthday-party-atlanta-ne-yo-ludacris-jermaine-dupri-new-girlfriend-jasmine-sanders-photos/

Officially Named Jeezy for Well Over a Year Now
He announced he dropped "Young" from his name a long time ago. He's listed as "Jeezy" on iTunes, his singles and album/mixtape covers since R.I.P. have all said "Jeezy", and his page on Def Jam says "Jeezy". Time to change it. http://www.defjam.com/artists/jeezy/ Distortiondude (talk) 19:14, 27 September 2014 (UTC)


 * Yeah, but he is still more well known as "Young Jeezy", but feel free to do a requested move if you want. Koala15 (talk) 04:07, 28 September 2014 (UTC)
