Young Jeezy And Kanye West Put On The Auto-Tune

It must have been annoying for Jeezy to watch Kanye’s song “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” become one of the biggest hits of the Chicago rapper’s career. See, the Graduation single was originally a remix of Jeezy’s 2006 song “I Got Money” that DJ Toomp produced. Unfortunately, Jeezy passed on the song, Kanye swooped in, finished it with Toomp (keeping Jeezy’s ad-libs in for extra trap-rap flavor), and the rest is history. And from the sound of Jeezy’s new single, he knows he lost one.

Young Jizzle has been killing it lately with a slew of R&B guest spots, but his new joint “Put On,” produced by Drumma Boy, definitely recaptures the serious, motivational mood of “Can’t Tell Me Nothing.” Sure, this is Jeezy in his element, but Kanye still manages to upstage him by using the auto-tune/vocoder effect on his memorable verse. Listen to the full song after the jump.
