Although Jeezy doesn't appear on the album, Gibbs name-dropped him on "Rabbit Vision," praising The Recession 2 rapper for giving him wisdom despite their longtime feud.
As $$$ marks Gibbs' first major label album, the rapper has his sights on Hollywood. Earlier this year, Gibbs appeared on Peacock comedy series Bust Down, and in March, he spoke to Vulture on taking the leap into acting.
"At the end of the day, man, I’ve gotten to look back and see a lot of great guys make the transition from rap into film," he said. "I’ve seen that the ones who take it seriously and have the most success are guys like Ice Cube and Common — guys in the game that you really have to give that credit to. I just study all of those guys, man. I try to be more involved in the production and writing and all of that stuff. I see what 50 Cent does, and I admire that. I kind of want to go in that direction."
