10 Things We Learned About Jeezy's Upcoming Album, 'Seen it All'

July 11, 2014 - 2:22 pm by Mikey Fresh TWITTER

Last night (July 10), Young Jeezy invited VIBE to come out and hear new material that he has been cooking up for his upcoming 5th solo album, Seen It All. Slated for a Sept. 2 release date, the Snowman has been on studio lockdown while completing his most experimental project to date.

Now, it's not like Jeezy is diving into the EDM world or anything of that nature, but the songs we heard prove that ATL's trap star has been meticulously working on improving his craft. Rapping from an OG's perspective, the seasoned rapper has something for his core fans, the rap purists, newjacks and your average music fan. Preview 10 new songs that we heard while in the studio with Jeezy.
