The Truth About Gucci Mane And Jeezy's Beef

The long-standing beef between Gucci Mane and Jeezy dates back over 15 years ago when they collaborated on "Icy" in May 2005. While it wasn't their first time collaborating on a track within that month, the two Atlanta rappers couldn't agree on who would have ownership rights for their respective debut albums, per Revolt. The track would eventually be included on Gucci's debut album Trap House. "Icy" went on to peak at No. 46 on the Billboard's Hip-Hop/R&B chart, and in turn, left a huge cultural impact on southern rap.

Gucci enjoyed the fruits of his labor — Jeezy, however, was not having it. Still upset over not having ownership of the collab track, Jeezy put a $10,000 bounty on the "Freaky Girl" rapper's chain on his song, "Stay Strapped." In the song, Big Snow makes it clear for all the trappers to stay alert, rapping, "I got a bounty on that sh**, n****. 10 stacks. So if he come to your town, and you just happen to snatch that motherf**** off his neck, I'm gonna shoot you the 10-stack, man. So I can cremate that motherf*****."

Never scared of a challenge, Gucci fired back and let Jeezy know that the beef was far from over. In his own diss track titled "Round 1," Gucci says, "That n**** Young Jeezy, man. That n**** fake." The beef over the song would get serious, resulting in blood being drawn between both their entourages.
