"Jizzle" a tasty portion of Young Jeezy feat. Lil' Jon!


"Jizzle" Feat. Lil' Jon is the First Official Single from Young Jeezy's Highly Anticipated New Album TM 103

Jeezy Covers XXL Magazine's 13th Anniversary Issue

Rap superstar and CTE/Def Jam recording artist Jeezy released the first official single from his highly-anticipated 4th studio album TM 103 via the nationwide Def Jam DJ conference call. "Jizzle," featuring Lil' Jon and produced by longtime collaborator and creative partner Shawty Redd, is the first official single from TM 103, which will be released, September 28th (US) on Def Jam Recordings.

TM 103 is the long-awaited follow-up to The Recession (released September 2008), Jeezy's second consecutive #1 SoundScan debut on the Billboard 200 albums chart (after 2006's The Inspiration). The Recession went straight to #1 at iTunes, and spun off a string of hit singles starting with "Put On" featuring Kanye West, #1 Rap and #1 R&B, and a #12 pop hit as well. The Grammy-nominated song was the second-highest charting Hot 100 hit of Jeezy's career, and was also nominated for the People's Champ Award at the BET Awards in October 2008.

The Recession continued the saga of Jeezy, one of the most successful rappers and entrepreneurs on the street today. It was the massive popularity and major-label sales of mixtapes like 2004's Trap Or Die that brought Jeezy national attention. His "million dollar dreams" turned into reality with the RIAA platinum #1 Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101,one of 2005's biggest debut albums. A phenomenal seven tracks from Let's Get It found their way onto radio and the charts: "And Then What," "Soul Survivor," "Trap Or Die," "Go Crazy," "Tear It Up," "Trap Star," and "My Hood." The album topped many critics' year-end lists, was named the New York Times' Pop Album of the Year, and Jeezy was named Best New R&B/Hip-Hop Artist at the Billboard Music Awards. Jeezy was named in Rolling Stone's "New Faces: Artists To Watch" and MTV News' "You Hear It First." 

2006's The Inspiration: Thug Motivation 102 quickly pushed past RIAA platinum, out-selling nearly every rap album on the charts. In support, Jeezy hit the road with Jim Jones, Baby, Lil' Wayne, and Fat Joe for the seven-week, 23-city "Street Dream Tour" of March-April 2007.
