In addition to releasing his new album, MULTI, via Create Music Group today (Mar. 11), multiplatinum artist DJ Chose also released a new EP. 16 new tracks are included on the new EP, which was self-produced. MULTI features top artists such as Megan Thee Stallion, Gucci Mane, Fredo Bang, Yung Bleu, and many more. Within a few days of the album’s release, DJ Chose posted two new music videos, “Too Late,” a song emphasizing confidence in the face of heartbreak and “Prove Me Wrong.”
To prepare fans for the full release, Chose shared the Gucci-assisted “You A Dime” ahead of time. Taking the Chose-produced beat, Gucci raps some lines about Ms. Perfect while riding a beat:
“The name ‘MULTI’ was chosen because I multitask often. Although people expect me to be a rapper, I have knowledge of music production, will market the beats myself, and will be a DJ whenever I want. I’m a multi-talented artist, and now I have a multi-platinum album,” DJ Chose says of the new release.
His remix of “THICK” with Megan Thee Stallion became a viral hit, establishing him as a name in Houston. “THICK” reached the top of the Hot 100 chart. Last year, DJ Chose released his album Took Me Forever. In addition to Fredo Bang, Chubb C,and City 3000, assistance was provided by 17 tracks. “BADDIE” was also released and “Naughty Or Nice” was released in honor of Christmas.
More than a million fans watched the much-anticipated Jeezy and Gucci Mane Verzuz battle. The night came with disses and shade as well as an amicable finale wherein “So Icy” was played by both of them. But Freddie Gibbs threw shade at Jeezy’s performance on Twitter. He spoke about the olive branch that was extended by Jeezy after Gucci played his 2012 diss track, “Truth.” After the song was played, where in the death of his associate Pookie Loc is referenced, Jeezy responded calmly.
On the Atlanta scene, Jeezy and Gucci Mane are most definitely two giants in the Hip Hop industry. Both of them contributed quite a bit to the game and in the VERZUZ battle, Gucci Mane revealed that he will be revealing a collection of his classic hits that has been titled Trap God Classics. Right from the beginning, the battle was very interesting and Jeezy finally won. Even Jeezy made use of the platform to release Recession 2.
The Versuz battle between Gucci Mane and Jeezy will go down in the history of hip hop as interesting. While the music probably made you go back to school days, it was beautiful to watch both the Trap pioneers come together after several years of feuds. Although both of them tried to be nice, there was some element of friction for sure. Needless to say, this meant there was a lot of throwing of shade as well. While Gucci mocked Jeezy’s ice game and stated that they should do a jewelry Verzuz, Jeezy stated that they must do a real estate one.
Gucci: Let’s do a jewelry versus next
time. Jezzy: Let’s do a real estate versus. Gucci: My outfit cost 10 bands. Jezzy: My outfit don’t cost
bands but I own half of Atlanta. There’s a big difference, invest into something that’s gonna make you long
money.
In Versuz of Jeezy and Gucci Mane, things became awkward, as Guwop chose to play “Truth,” which was his track dating back to 2005 that dissed The Snowman. Then, La Flare kept going in, mimicking Loc’s name (Jeezy’s associate that he shot and killed years ago) and discussing how he is in a coffin. However, Jeezy refused to take it and said “See when I called you and extended this invite, my nigga, I did it as a real man. It’s been 20 motherfucking years… you still talking the same shit.”
