DJ Drama Responds To Jeezy

Drama
It didn't take long for DJ Drama to read what Jeezy had to say to XXL and fire back some shots in return. After the jump, peep Dram's reponse to what Jeezy had to say about him and their relationship:

"After reading Jeezy's unprovoked insults in that XXL article, it seems like the guy’s pretty emotional if u ask me! Maybe he’s dealing wit some things in his career, I don't know. He did an interview a few months back with Elliot Wilson on RapRadar. and said the total opposite! He was talkin bout, "Drams the homie and we may work together again, etc." Now I've never spoken on our issues because I believe grown man business is just that, and running to the media to whine is not my thing.

But more importantly, his statement about me trying to charge him $20k for a mixtape is a BOLD FACE LIE. I never charged Jeezy for nothin'. I did two Slick Pulla tapes (4th Ward Day, Election Day) for free and a Bloodraw tape (The Indictment Papers) for free. Anything Jeezy ever needed from me, I did without hesitation. He doesn’t want to deal with the real reason why he's mad.

The tension between us actually started when I deejayed his USDA release party (FOR FREE) and I played a Gucci Mane record. He stormed out of his own party and didn't speak to me for about 2-3 months. Me, being a DJ, I was just rockin' the crowd and giving the people what they had been requesting. I don’t get involved in that other stuff.

I could go deeper into his angry reaction to me working with Gucci but, again, I'm a stand-up guy. I'm loyal to those who are loyal to me. I'm not even thinkin bout Jeezy. Why all the tough talk to the DJ who doesn't say nothin' about him? Jeezy didn't say nothin' tough when rappers dissed him like Pimp C.

I was shocked by his cowardly attempt to try to slander my name in the upcoming XXL article. And what’s the most shocking is to see him side with the FEDs in my arrest! Wow, since when did that become gangster?!? I'm chillin, never said nothin' negative about dude. Check his character…or better yet, ask those around him that he’s done dirty. Ask the folks who ain't with him anymore, like Coach K, Twin, his former security Big Sam, or my homie Roccett…

We doin' our thing over here. I'm workin on albums, Gangsta Grillz Vol 3., traveling the world and celebrating success! And I'm still the Mixtape President!"

I see where Drama is coming from, but if Jeezy is your boy and you're DJing his party, why would you play a record from someone he's been publicly feuding with for years?? That's like a DJ Khaled doing Rick Ross' party and starting playing 50 Cent music. That's being loyal?? I'm not saying he can't play Gucci's shit, but why do it at Jeezy's party?? I don't agree with the way Jeezy handled it but its still a slap in the face.
