TM104: The Legend of the Snowman is the eleventh studio album by American rapper Jeezy.

Background

Shortly after touring for his previous album Pressure, in early 2018 Jeezy announced on social media that he will retire from rap after the release of "TM104" to pursue a career in acting and to focus on his business ventures.[2][3]

Singles

The album's lead single, "1 Time", was released on July 3, 2019.[4] The album's second single, "MLK BLVD" featuring Meek Mill, was released to streaming services on August 13, 2019, and was sent to US rhythmic contemporary radio on September 24, 2019.[5][6]

AllMusic[7]

Fred Thomas of AllMusic expressed a mixed response saying "Approaching 20 years in the game, Jeezy's grizzly voice and boldly evocative lyrics have lost none of their power, though the 18-song album finds him spending as much time encouraging listeners to rise to their potential as he does crafting vivid scenes of rugged street hustling".[9] Eric Diep of HipHopDx gave the album a 3.5 out of 5 stars and noted Jeezy's production selection on the album by saying "Overall, you get a bit of both worlds: Jeezy staying in his lane, but also pushing himself to rap over unlikely production". Diep then concluded in the review by saying "What fans are left with is an album that clearly shows he’s moving on from his decades-long hustle of music to focus on his many business moves."[8]
