Church in these streets

"Dropping the Young from his name and turning on the full Jeezy, Church in These Streets finds the veteran Atlanta MC tackling the concept album while playing the role of an inner-city preacher ... when taking in a full album, his monotone, bellowing delivery is an acquired taste, and with only a few guest shots, plus a long track list, newcomers might find this big LP a tough go. Regardless, the ambitious Church in These Streets stands with the man's great Thug Motivation 101 while beating that album on artistic merit and meaningful lyrics".

"The best Jeezy music often exploited how far he could go with memorable ad libs and punchlines, a triumphant kind of simplicity. Here that gets muted to muddied results".

"[Jeezy] tilhører dem, der tæller pengene i alle sine rim ... "Church in These Streets" byder på oppustede og selvfede gadeprædikener. Det er et album for folk, der kan lide robust hiphop, men der er desværre ingen overraskelser i produktionerne. Trommemaskinerne basker derudad, og de hårde kontante udmeldinger flyver som kugler på titelnummeret".
