Throughout the venue, you could feel a collective sigh of relief embedded in the cheer. A “yes” but also a “thank you for asking.” Thank god we are doing better than we were 10 years ago. Got to keep pushing.Īnd then, after that flurry of thoughts, came a triumphant, explosive response. You know, I hadn’t really thought about 10 years ago in a while. Could have permanently messed up everything. You remember that recession? That shit was wild. Things easily could have gone off the rails. Hell yeah I’m doing better - wait, was I doing better now than I was 10 years ago? I think I am - no, I definitely am. But here, Jeezy’s question caused a slight hesitation in the room, a moment of reflection, before adhering with a response. Most are knee-jerk reflexive, with the sheer act of being talked at instantly causing you to yell, your body to flail, react. It wasn’t your typical call-and-response concert moment. “If you’re doing better than you were doing 10 years ago make some noise,” Jeezy barked at the Fox Theatre crowd.
