I ain't a rapper; I'm a motivational speaker. I don't do shows; I do seminars. I really talk to people.

Sam Jackson is like the Jeezy of Hollywood: He's for his people.

That's why I like to read a lot. That's why I try to keep up on current events, what's going on in the world with the elections and the politicians and business people, because I feel like it's my duty to spread that. I feel like it's my duty to speak on that even if I'm never asked, because I'm representing the people. I don't want to be in a position where I have no knowledge.

I love the streets, and the streets love me back. And when things ain't going the way they should go, they let you know... and when they happy, you gotta keep 'em happy.

The craziest thing is that the song ["My President"] is real but you can still hear it in the club.

I never wanted to be a statistic. I never wanted to be that cat who tried and never made it.

I don't think nobody should compare me to anyone, 'cause, at the end of the day, you've got a 'Pac, you've got Snoop, you got Tip, you got Wayne - there's only one Jeezy, man. Ain't nobody walked in these shoes but me.
