Several Jeezy Mixtapes Released on Streaming Services for The First Time

When we did a list of the 10 mixtapes that we’d like to see on streaming services last year, of course Jeezy was included. Although he has several strong ones in his mixtape catalog, we picked 2005’s Trap or Die hosted by the one and only DJ Drama.

Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

But there’s some good news today for fans of the rapper who know him more as “Young Jeezy.” Several of his highly appreciated mixtapes have now been released on streaming services for the first time. Yes, we are talking all platforms like Apple Music, TIDAL, Spotify and others.

Interestingly, no official announcement has been made about it by Jeezy or the DJs involved in the original releases like Drama and Folk. But we have found that some of his best ones like the debut The Streetz is Watching in 2004, 2005’s Trap or Die, 2009’s Trapping Ain’t Dead, 2006’s Can’t Ban The Snowman and 2010’s Trap or Die 2 can now be played on your favorite DSP.

A heads up: on Apple Music, some of the tapes are tagged under the artist name “Jeezy” while others are under “Young Jeezy.”

When we went deeper to find the source, we noticed that the releases that hit streaming services on Friday, Aug. 14 have come via a company named Agency 99. According to their official website, the company is associated with the Atlanta rapper and cites his Tequila Avion and the performance water company Defiance Fuel that he has a stake in, as some of its clients.

That should be enough to tell us that this deed has taken place with the blessings of the Trapper himself. Enjoy the musical weekend.
