Young Jeezy is changing his name. The rapper is shedding “Young” from his moniker to reflect his grown man status.
The Atlanta-bred rapper recently explained to MTV why he decided to chop his name. “No, no, no, it’s Jeezy now. We dropped the ‘Young,’” he reveals. “Yeah, I’m grown now, man. I did enough of that.”
He explains that “Young Jeezy” made sense when he was in a youthful mind state but not so much anymore. “It sound good because when I came in the game, that’s who I was and that was my state of mind,” he states. “But I’m a grown man now.”
Jeezy isn’t the only rapper changing his name. Jay Z dropped the hyphen from his stage name earlier this summer.
