(Blowin' Money Fast)". On the track, Jeezy appears to be criticising Rick Ross by saying "How you blowin' money fast, you don't know the crew / Oh you're part of the fam, shit I never knew." However, in an interview with MTV, Jeezy claimed it was not a criticism and that the line was not aimed at anyone in particular.http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1645500/20100810/jeezy_young.jhtml https://archive.today/20130129055758/http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1645500/20100810/jeezy_young.jhtml dead January 29, 2013 Exclusive: Young Jeezy Addresses Rick Ross 'Dis' Speculation MTV DJ Scream hosts this mixtape and has many tags on it; a tagless (or no DJ) version of the mixtape has also been released. This is volume one of what appeared to be a new series by Jeezy, but so farMay 2015 there have been no official statements on when volume 2 will be released. Critical reception Pitchfork Media (4.2/10) The Washington Post (average) Pitchfork's Tom Breihan wrote that the mixtape "seems to exist to support his opening salvo against Ross. And judging by the respective quality of both this tape and Ross' great new Teflon Don, Jeezy is heading for a big L here." David Malitz of The Washington Post called Jeezy's rhymes "cheaply glorifying" and the backing tracks "predictable".Malitz David https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/08/23/AR2010082304009.html Album review of Young Jeezy's '1000 Grams' The Washington Post August 24, 2010 September 30, 2012 Sam Hockley-Smith of The Fader said that while most mixtapes in which the artist raps over other people's songs consist of "watered down versions of the original" tracks, Jeezy on this mixtape is "always stable. Never really varying in tempo too much, just working with any beat that gets thrown his way. It’s a pretty sweet example of why this guy has outlasted a lot of his peers."Hockley-Smith Sam http://www.thefader.com/2010/08/12/young-jeezy-1000-grams-mixtape/ Young Jeezy, '1000 Grams' Mixtape The Fader August 12, 2010 September 30, 2012 Track listing All songs performed by Jeezy. #TitleLengthProducerInstrumentals/sample1"Intro"2:052"Death B4 Dishonor"3:25Lex Luger "B.M.F.
