In 2007, Jacquees was introduced to his manager, Orlando Grind, by Dexx Lee. After years of performing in local talent shows, Orlando soon introduced him to Russell "Block" Spencer, founder and CEO of Block Entertainment. When Jacquees started going to the studio he merely blended with the team and wasn't given the opportunity to express his true talents. "When you see work being done around you but not for you, you tend to get discouraged," says Jacquees. At that time, Block's focus was only rap, not R&B. It wasn't until summer of 2009 when Block witnessed how talented Jacquees was and shifted his vision. Jacquees began to work closely with Block Entertainment recording and gaining more exposure with the release of his first single "Krazy" featuring Grand Hustle's own, T.I.
Jacquees has recorded with label mates, Gorilla Zoe and Scotty, T.I.P, and an upcoming Atlanta rapper, J-Real. Jacquees dreams to work with established artist Lil Wayne, Drake, Justin Bieber, Bow Wow, Lil' Chuckee, Chris Brown, and many more. "All of these artists started out at the age I am and are successful in the industry. I look up to them and dream that I will be just as successful as they are," Jacquees explains. "Only better!"
"It's truly a blessing to have the opportunity to work with the artist and producers I have already worked with," says Jacquees. "I pray to God every night that I continue on this journey and achieve what I've always dreamed of doing. With God on my side, I know this is only the beginning and there is more to come." With that in mind, Jacquees will achieve any and everything he wants out of the music industry.

Jacquees Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We gone kill his whole motherfuckin family
And I ain't playin with nobody
Fuck around and I'm a get you bodied
Bitch I brought a.9 not a.40
Beat a snitch then we take his money
Niggas know I'm on it, I own it
Give lil ron the tommy for all you dummies
Leave his main bitch wet and horny
You a old head you spend all your money
Pull straight up out the lot put a pic on ig
I had fake bitches I'm a realist
Got so many shoes you should see my closet
Rock that all black when we really mobbin
Hop out like snoop, iaint crip walkin
Fuck is ya'll sayin bitch my hood love me
Wesley chapel road real niggas know me
I been out my mind since they killed rodrick
Free my brother gylon man he just called me
All these hoes love me can't get em off me
Only hit it one time she won't stop calling
Fyb that's still the squad long time coming
Poppin bottles vip know your hoe coming
Even when I was unsigned I was still that nigga
Niggas see me, riding round with c-breezy, lambo speeding
Mind full of money, got your bitch full of semen
Getting all this money fighting all these fuckin demons
Turn your girl into a relay, no track meet
Have you singing like mariah you fuck with my family
Niggas steady hating but they gotta watch it
Ten-thousand dollars took my mama shopping
Let a nigga try que, try que
We gone kill his whole motherfuckin family
And I ain't playin with nobody
Fuck around and I'm a get you bodied
Bitch I signed to with baby, no diapers
Leave you with a shit bag, big diapers
I want more weed and less liquor
Leave your girl around me then I'm probably gone hit her
Signed to cash money last month
Got a lot of money I'm bout to stunt
I'm a young stunner, big blunts
You can have a taste if you want
I'm my own shooter I ain't gotta run
Let a nigga try que, try que
We gone kill his whole motherfuckin family
And I ain't playin with nobody
Fuck around and I'm a get you bodied
In βTry Meβ, Jacquees is expressing his aggression towards anyone who tries to mess with him, his squad, or his loved ones. He warns that anyone who tries him will be met with violent consequences and emphasizes that he is not playing games with anyone. He threatens to kill the whole family of anyone who is foolish enough to try him, and he believes that he is someone important and he owns his strength. Jacquees references his loyalty to his squad and his past struggles with mental health as he fights his inner demons while accumulating wealth. He also boasts about his recent signing to Cash Money and his newfound wealth.
The song contains an intense beat that complements the violent lyrics, and Jacquees showcases his versatility as a singer as he switches between singing and rapping. The lyrics in the chorus βLet a nigga try que, try que, we gone kill his whole motherfuckin familyβ are a direct reference to the popular Vine βTry me, try me, Iβm not one of these bitches, try meβ by Dej Loaf. The lyrics are controversial and have been subject to criticism for promoting violence and toxic masculinity.
