The Recession 2

by Jeezy

Overview

After publicly asserting that he was retiring from rap after the release of his 2019 album TM104: The Legend of the Snowman, chart-topping rapper Jeezy wasted no time doubling back on that decision, almost immediately releasing new music. Ultimately, Jeezy's impulse to leave rap was short-lived, and he sounds renewed and stronger than ever on his tenth studio album The Recession 2. Nominally the sequel to his 2008 album The Recession, the 15-track album examines America's struggles with racism, police violence, poverty, and disease much like its predecessor outlined the challenges facing the country in in the 2000s. In addition to the social commentary of "Oh Lord," "Stimulus Check," and "Da Ghetto," The Recession 2 also includes moments of feel-good pop on "My Reputation," which features huge hooks from guest vocalist Demi Lovato as well as head-bobbing party tracks like the Yo Gotti-assisted "Back" and "Almighty Black Dollar," which features a passionate cameo verse from Rick Ross. ~ Fred Thomas
