Sweet James Jones

In stores 10/5. I’ll probably buy a copy because I wouldn’t want to take food out of the mouths of the Butler children.

This is encouraging, but two points worth noting:

  • This “Gator Man” just sounds like a less mushmouthed Gucci Mane.
  • This album features the fabled “Dickies song,” made with Jeezy and Bun before C’s death, which is great but also funny because “Since the 90s” is yet another Jeezy diss.  I’ve been seeing a lot of “fuck Jeezy, dude’s a studio gangster” in blog comments lately; wonder to what extent the loss of credibility he’s suffered in the last couple years has to do with Pimp C’s quibbling with him over drug prices.
