“I regret none of it, I lived the best of both worlds.”Jeezy

We couldn't hide the energy on this one, sitting with the man behind the soundtrack of the good ole days...In this powerful episode of The Pivot Podcast, Jeezy pulls up for a raw and reflective conversation about the journey that shaped him—from the pressures and grind of Atlanta’s streets to becoming a defining voice in hip hop culture. He opens up about the evolution of his music, how his mindset shifted over the years, and what it really means to bet on yourself when the odds aren’t in your favor.

Jeezy speaks candidly about carrying the weight of being a culture icon, the responsibility that comes with it, and how Atlanta’s influence helped mold not just his sound, but an entire era of music. The guys go deep into his phases of life, the transition of growth in his albums, using music as his message to culture, betting on himself when all else fails and taking risks despite being advised not to.

Beyond the spotlight, he dives into personal battles with depression, offering a rare look at the emotional challenges behind the success. Jeezy also reflects on a pivotal moment in his life—being arrested—and how that experience became a turning point that forced him to reassess his path and ultimately change the trajectory of his life.

Ofcourse, we have our laughs and lighter moments, when Channing calls him out on owing him money from the days of his music influencing his car purchases and the amount of money spent in strip clubs as well as the catalyst that pushed him back into the studio away from the outside noise.

The conversation also explores his growth as a father and the realities of co-parenting, highlighting the importance of maturity, communication, and legacy. Jeezy reflects on his long-standing bond with Jay-Z, sharing insights into their mutual respect and what he’s learned from one of the game’s greats.

To top it off, he talks about his new Las Vegas residency and what this next chapter represents—not just as an artist, but as a man continuing to evolve while creating an experience for people to truly reflect on the longevity of music, message and motivation.

This episode is about resilience, reinvention, and the power of staying true to your vision—no matter where you start. Pivot Family, Like, Hit the subscribe button and comment, we love to hear from you- the good, the bad, whatever comes to mind!

redveil: Tiny Desk Concert Hotney 6 विचारों • 3 महीने पहले

Joshua Bryant | July 9, 2026
We love when a Tiny Desk feels like a homecoming. redveil, a rapper and producer from Prince George’s County, Md., moved to Los Angeles a couple years ago to further expand his musical ambitions. He comes back to the D.C. area, home of the Desk, with an evolved sound to perform a soulful set, turning his complex beats into jazzy, full-band arrangements.

In late 2025, redveil released sankofa, which means “go back and get it” from the Akan language of Ghana — to bring wisdom from the past into the future to make positive changes. That’s the mindset of this performance. He speaks on his mortality with “time (a dream deferred)” and, on “lone star,” reflects on summers in Texas with his grandparents. There’s a desire to connect with his Caribbean roots on “history,” which jumps right into the breezy love song “brown sugar.”

As he winds down the set, redveil goes back to “campbell,” the first track from his 2020 album niagra, which he released at age 16. To close out, redveil gets on the keys for “glimpse of you,” a personal letter to his brother who lives with schizophrenia — the song crescendos into an emotional climax and on a note of hope.
