yea this could have been on the album
BUT at least its not like games album where he took all the good shit off...man i was kinda disappointed with LAX because he took alot of songs off that should have been on the album
but recession is a good album anyway, i got that shit earlier and played it straight thru...if ur a jeezy fan and havent copped it yet then definitly go get that shit
classic? i dont know yet but im debating about it

Album of the year, so far? I'd have to say so..I mean Jeezy got tracks that's going to start a couple of political, a couple of fights and some sex..The Recession is that shit! "Where dey do dat at"

favorite songs

1.Welcome Back
2.Who Date
3.Get Alott
4.What they Want
5.Word Play
6.My President is Black

Anyone who says Jeezy ain't a lyricist, needs to dead themselves.

"Bitch I make hits, you niggas waste time and I be god damned if, I let you waste mine"

yea recessions pretty straight i dont even really like jeezy but im playin it in my whip anyway its not bad. i just dont c how yall say hes great lyrically. hes just never said anything that made me wanna rewind it. for instance nas kills him on my president... but anyway album was good this song shoulda been on there cuz i think recession was kinda short.

oh yea, what yall think about jeezy new joint?

cuz I don't like it...not compared to the other two albums...

PLUS...I saw an interview he did about the album "Recession" and he was talkin all this shit about how the world is in a tough situation, and people don't want to hear about how rich niggas are..People don't want to hear about cars, rims, chains...etc...

I was expecting some REAL ASS SHIT from the recession, but what did I get THE SAME OL JEEZY BULLSHIT...

(I'm not saying that jeezy is garbage, or his album is, but I'm jus saying that the title "the recession" does not match what the actual SONGS are talking about...it misleading as hell, and a fuckin FRONT just to get HYPE...Nas gets hype from contrversial album titles too, but at least he backs it up..)

If this album was called Thug Motivation 103, I wouldn't be complaining, cuz he talking about the same old dopeboy street shit...)
