jerry-rig

To fix or put together using non-standard or improvised materials. A derivation of jury-rig, from the nautical term jury mast. This term refers to a temporary mast raised when the normal mast has been lost due to storm or battle. This is probably a short form of injury mast.
Not to be confused with Jerry-built, which refers to an original construction of poor quality.

Young Jeezy

An Atlanta rapper extremely popular especially within the Atlanta area. Jeezy, Unlike many artists who claim much in their songs, yet speak lies, is a well-known, succesful, and accomplished drug dealing player. A self-proclaimed "Snowman" who just wanted to try his hand at the rap game. CEO of CTE, and a member of USDA, a better example of Jeezy's mark on the game can be seen in the nationwide trade-in of white tees for angry Snowman tees. Known for ad-libs you can remember and cd's put on repeat throughout clubs all over Georgia and the world, everybody knows themselves some Jeezy lyrics for real.

Despite what some interpret as biting other rap artists style's such as "Your favorite rapper's favorite rapper" from Devin the Dude to "Guess who's bizzack" from Jay-Z, Jeezy's respect in the street is one best witnessed in the street. If one cannot understand Jeezy's style, one will most likely never understand the A-town style or, even more likely, any of the South's style.

When newly emerging Southern artists come and go, Jeezy, hate em or not, will always be there.
"Ril rekuhnize ril."

"We don't just say no --we too busy sayin, "Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah.""
