Young Jeezy Explains Gucci Mane Beef

“It wasn’t a question of ‘Why do the song now?’ ” Jeezy explained to MTV News. Young has refused to address Gucci for years and says this interview about the subject will be his last. “It was more so of when dude went away, did his little time or whatever — he came back. The sh– was squashed. I wasn’t trippin’ on him. I was getting my money on. I was done with it. I was on my grind. I wasn’t really paying attention what was going on [with Gucci]. But as you know, Slick Pulla is locked up. A few of my partners that I really been down with since day one. He started taking shots on his little mixtapes. I was really kinda done with it, because on ‘Stay Strapped,’ I killed him with one verse. To make a long story short, I’m tired of the bullsh–, because I know him. He ain’t like that. To be honest, I don’t have a problem with Gucci because I wear it — I have a problem with Radric [Gucci's Mane's given name].”

There’s a song called “Hurry” off of Gucci’s mixtape The Writing’s on the Wall that contains lines that could be taken as jabs at Young and his crew. “Girl you look like Keyshia Cole/ I know you a di– pulla,” he raps. “But can’t f— you Blood Raw/ Damn I like them Kinky flows.”

Gucci will neither confirm nor deny if he was throwing disses, but obviously Slick Pulla, Blood Raw and Kinky B are in Young’s crew, and he used to date Keyshia Cole. Jeezy found it funny that Gucci called radio-show host Miss Info on Tuesday and downplayed the whole situation saying Jeezy was just dissing him to build hype.

“This is what he does. He always does it,” Jeezy said. “He says what he says, then he hides his hands. Then when you say something, you’re the bad guy. I’m definitely not the aggressor in this situation. I’m just holding my business. I’m a grown-ass man. The best thing for you to do is get your money and leave me the f— alone. I heard their little statement, ‘We ain’t feeding into that.’ Y’all been feeding into that for four years. Get your money, dog. Don’t be out here with the bullsh–.
