Atlanta rapper Jeezy is still putting in work. The Snowman has provided fans with an update on his long-awaited Trap Or Die 3 studio album.
According to the rap veteran, the project will showcase his street knowledge rather than promote peace.
“We’re putting it together now, man, ASAP, I’m coming right at ya,” Jeezy said in an interview. “I’ma let you know [the release date] so you can put it out there for me. Look, man, I’m back in my snow bag. Just Jeezy. Just unapologetic. Just Snow, man. I tried to give y’all Martin Luther King but they didn’t want that. I tried to do it. Yeah, them motherf*ckers locked me up in LA and tried to charge me with murder. I really got to see who was in my corner and I really got to understand no matter how rich you are or how powerful you are, if they’re ever given the opportunity, they’re still gonna treat you like a n*gga – I ain’t get treated like that in the street. For me to get caught up when business is great and all these different things about to happen for me.” (Tax Season)

The rap veteran’s album announcement comes 11 years after his first Trap or Die project arrived.
The album will serve as the latest installment of his Trap or Die mixtape series. The original Trap or Die came out back in 2005, with part 2 following five years later in 2010. Now, after almost six more years, fans will finally get their hands on Trap or Die 3, and this time as a commercially released album. (Complex)
Last year, Jeezy turned political and talked about the upcoming presidential election.
“Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, right now to me, are class acts in my book. You got someone like Donald Trump. Whether he wins or loses, Trump is doing this for his brand. You’re sitting back watching someone who should have been out of the race a long time ago based on his actions and everything he does bumps him up in the race because people love it. This is America, we love entertainment. This is no different than his reality show – when I see Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders, I see people that actually care about the people” (CNN)
