Assessment comment

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Jeezy/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

The lead is short. Some sections are stubby, and could be expanded. "Personal information" is full of one-sentence paragraphs. Better prose is needed there.--Yannismarou 09:16, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

- 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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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>

Birthdate

This birthdate is wrong

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)[reply]

Jeezy & Gucci Mane Beef is OVER

I heard this in the past week someone please find more info and post on the main page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.198.67.89 (talk) 04:40, 8 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[1] Jeezy and Gucci's beef ended last year when Dj Drama accepted a phone call during a Jeezy and Drama interview. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mista East (talk • contribs) 14:17, 14 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Birthday

His Birthday is September 28th.. I know him personally and it should be changed to the correct Date.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by True Passion (talk • contribs) 14:37, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Young Jeezy - Young = Jeezy

He has removed the "Young" from his name. http://rapradar.com/2010/03/19/young-jeezy-changes-his-name/ --DinoAvdic (talk) 19:20, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

To Jeezy, Def Jam confirms the removal of 'Young'. SE KinG. User page. Talk. 21:05, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, jeezy.defjam.com reads "Young Jeezy" again. I guess that change was merely temporary. Andrewlp1991 (talk) 06:56, 27 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

{{editsemiprotected}} http://globalgrind.com/channel/culture/content/1516861/Young-Jeezy-Allegedly-Still-Young/

Young Jeezy's name is still Young Jeezy as he stated in this interview.

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)[reply]

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)[reply]

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.

Green420jdubb (talk) 01:53, 6 January 2011 (UTC) Not Accurate at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.175.165.8 (talk) 00:16, 13 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Done Changed to this source as it mentions the release date not just the concert. Jnorton7558 (talk) 09:31, 27 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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.

http://www.metrolyrics.com/dreamin-lyrics-young-jeezy.html = Lyrics to one song that verifies it.

Not done: Do you have a reliable source for the September date? Jnorton7558 (talk) 10:09, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]
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.
ReelDealPedia (talk) 20:56, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
No new source provided that is reliable to confirm date. Keith D (talk) 12:28, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

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/ Jonesbutta (talk) 21:42, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: - That is not a reliable source. Also lyrics to a song are not considered sources either. SE KinG. User page. Talk. 01:55, 21 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Marking this as answered. It can be reactivated if sources are provided. RudolfRed (talk) 05:01, 21 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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)[reply]

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)[reply]
