Jeezy to Sell Custom-Designed NFT of His Iconic Snowman Logo

Following The Weeknd, Post Malone, Wu-Tang Clan and others, Jeezy is the latest rapper who is joining the NFT (Non-fungible token) craze.

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.

Jeezy is taking a step further in the NFT business by embracing 3D and augmented reality (AR) technology in the production of his art. Jeezy’s collaborative campaign with Oasis will feature a series of limited-edition animated and AR-enhanced NFTs and will be accompanied by an audio file of Jeezy speaking about the origins of his iconic snowman logo which has become synonymous with Hip-Hop culture.

After debuting the snowman logo in 2005, Jeezy continued to feature the snowman throughout his highly successful “Thug Motivation” album series, concluding with 2019’s TM 104: The Legend of the Snowman.

Liquid Avatar CEO David Lucach said in a statement to HHNM: “Partnering with Jeezy is an amazing opportunity for Liquid Avatar and Oasis. As an artist and a businessman, we know Jeezy is always working to be at the forefront of fan outreach. NFTs have become an innovative way to sell art and engage fans and early adopters in the music industry are now able to jump right into this evolving market and expand their global footprint. Jeezy’s iconic snowman logo and brand is the perfect fit for NFTs and Oasis, and we know his success will draw even more top-level musicians to work with us.”

The NFT will be available starting late April 2021. A pre-sale waiting list is available for prospective purchasers and collectors on the Oasis website starting today.
