En lenguaje claro
This is a ceremonial resolution from the Georgia Senate, not a change to any law. It recognizes Otis Williams Jr., known professionally as OJ da Juiceman, for his career as an Atlanta rapper and entrepreneur who helped shape the sound of Southern trap music starting in the mid-2000s. The resolution recounts his career highlights, including his early collaborations with Gucci Mane and the Brick Squad 1017 collective, the hit song 'Make the Trap Say Aye,' and his 2009 debut album The Otha Side of the Trap! It closes by directing the Secretary of the Senate to prepare a copy of the resolution for OJ da Juiceman, a customary step for these honorary measures.
