Young Jeezy Says "Death Before Dishonor" Is Not a Diss

MTV caught up with Young Jeezy. Speaking on his recent B.M.F. freestyle that everyone (myself included) took as a diss to Rick Ross.

It’s not a diss. First of all, I’m not gonna get nothing out of dissing that guy. That’s one. What am I gonna get out of dissing him? I think sometimes people can read into things too deep. They trippin’ man. They crazy out there. Basically, if homie takes that as a diss, he’s insecure, and anybody else out there who does, they are insecure.

When asked about specif lines (“how you blowing money fast? you don’t know the crew. oh you part of the fam? shit i never knew”) Jeezy said the following…

That’s for real. That’s for anybody. I got niggas in prison behind that shit. I feel that if you speaking on shit, you gotta at least know who you talking about. That’s like niggas speaking on Cash Money: If he ain’t never been a part of Cash Money, [then] I’mma speak it better if I’m a part of Cash Money. To me, [BMF] was real. I know all the members. Who else would say a line like that, but me? I’m one of the few people who can say that, so I said it. That’s real life, though. You gotta know the crew, baby. I thought that was the purpose of the game: to get on records and talk your shit, right?

Subliminals, for what? What’s understood ain’t gotta be said. I didn’t think people would take the record like that. I did it like I would have any Shawty Lo record, any Rocko record, whoever. I got on [Ross' beat] and did it like how I do it, the best way I know how. I don’t know if because the BMF situation is for real for me that everybody is like, “Ooh. Oh, shot.” Twitter is a muthafucka, by the way.

Jeezy also says that he recorded B.M.F. (The Real Blowin’ Money Fast) before Ross’ version came out. And that he decided to take it off TM103 after hearing Rozay’s shit.

 You guys buying any of this? Anyways, 1,000 Grams drops this Thursday. With freestyles over Soulja Boy’s Pretty Boy Swag, Kanye West’s Power, as well as some Clipse and Young Money instrumentals.
