Jeezy is changing with the times and has officially dropped the Young part of his name. On the official artwork for his latest single it simply says “Jeezy” at the top. He was also credited with the simpler moniker on Rihanna’s “Hard”. We all have to grow up sometime. This is what everyone calls him anyway, so it seems real natural.
What makes a summer song? It's sweaty but never sad about it. The right summer smash makes you put the double-decker barbecue plate on your lawn chair, pour out something cool and get close to the speakers. It's naked and unashamed, of course. The song's gotta be loud. Not volume-wise either. You need to be able to open that sunroof, lower the windows on the highway and still annoy passersby with the bass drop. They're great songs because they're disposable songs. A summer jam is the wet wipe of music: refreshing as it is fleeting and oh so useful at the right time. Load these songs into your playlist and be the DJ you always wanted for the weekend.
