Jeezy had a Come to Jesus Moment with Nia Long & I’m Not Impressed

Colorist Black men Love to Lean on Phenotypically Black Women when They’re Down — So, listen, outside of a drug-themed anthem or two, I haven’t paid Jeezy any attention for years. Sure, he’s a talented rapper and all of that, but he’s never been a fave of mine on any level. I mean, much respect to him for his success — and I genuinely…
