Jeezy Sets Guinness World Record With 101-Piece Orchestra In Las Vegas

Rapper Jeezy has set a Guinness World Record for performing with the largest orchestra ever assembled for a hip-hop concert, featuring 101 musicians from The Color of Noize Orchestra during his TM:101 Live residency at PH Live in Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas. The residency celebrates his debut album "Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101" and showcases symphonic arrangements of his trap hits, with musical direction by Adam Blackstone and compositions by Derrick Hodge. The achievement was personally recognized onstage by Guinness adjudicator Andy Glass, marking a milestone not only for Jeezy but also for the culture, music, and Las Vegas entertainment scene. Jeezy described the accomplishment as a collective win and emphasized the event's significance for hip-hop and music evolution. The residency includes themed shows such as Masquerade and Nutcracker performances, with upcoming dates planned through December. This musical milestone also helps shift the narrative around Jeezy, focusing on his artistic legacy and innovation rather than recent personal controversies.
