Jeezy Asks T.I. Why He’s “Avoiding” Him During “Verzuz” Quest
After 50 Cent repeatedly shut down the possibility of appearing on Verzuz with T.I., other artists have been vying for the opportunity. The self-proclaimed King of the South has been rather picky about who he wants to share the Verzuz stage with. Busta Rhymes told Fat Joe that he’d match up with T.I., but Tip later responded, “I salute and respect Busta a whole lot. I just think the generational gap might be a little too much.” The rapper also mentioned Jeezy and said, “Incredible amount of Young and his catalog. Personal patna of mine,” he said. “But if Young wanted this smoke, he’d say it.” It looks as if Jeezy is answering the call.
In a video he shared to Instagram, Jeezy made it clear that all he needs is a date and time. “Say bruh. You done been around the whole world on your campaign. Now you back here,” said Jeezy. “I don’t know what you avoiding me for. I’ll tell you what though, since it mean that much to you, put a date on it. I ain’t gon’ meet you there, I’m gon’ beat you there. Straight up. Big Snow.”
T.I. jumped in Jeezy’s comments. “Hmmm could this long time constituent of mine be referring to me??? @jeezy,” he wrote. Swizz Beatz was watching the exchange and left a series of eyeball emojis, so this may be something that will actually go down on Verzuz. Do you think this is a fair match up?

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”
Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.
“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.
But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
