 24: I know your headlining your first major tour �Street Dreams� so how has that been going?
Jeezy: It�s been going great and a lot of people may have thought that the tour was not going to work out but the streets have spoken and everyone on this tour is giving the fans 110% each night.

24: You have two successful albums back to back and some critics still feel like you can�t rap, how do you feel about that?
Jeezy: Critics said I could not make one better then my first one, how I feel that will probably be my worst one. I will never let what a critic say offend me because I do this shit for the streets and it�s clear that the streets feel I can rap period. Check the sound scan on that.

24: Are you happy with the results of the USDA group album so far?
Jeezy: I thought the first week could of done a little better but the numbers will pick on this album because real recognize real and the second single �Corporate Thuggin� is going to start a bigger buzz then the first single.

24: You seem to be handling all of your success in a very humble manner?
Jeezy: All the time, but that�s just me being me but I do like to shine and live everyday like it�s my last but I show love to the people all the time.

24: Are you working on your third album already?
Jeezy: Yeah, but I�m always recording. People might think different but anyone who knows me or comes in to contact with me, they see the effort and grind I put into my work that�s why the results always come back good.

24: What advice would you give to an up and coming artist?
Jeezy: Do your whole album yourself. I feel like new artist don�t want to take the time to finish and complete an album and they wait until there signed when they can find some good producers and find their sound, and then present it to the labels.

24: Tell me about your clothing line?
Jeezy: It�s called 8732 and I did not want to make it into something that was already out there and I wanted to make sure that it represents the streets and me.

24: When looking for new producers to work with what do you look for?
Jeezy: I look for that sound something that separates you from the next and I found that in Shawty Redd, Justice League, Arnaz, Drummer Boy and The Runners.

24: What�s coming up next for CTE?
Jeezy: Look for the new single �Corporate Thuggin� produced by Arnaz and Slick Pulla and BloodRaw solo albums coming soon along with my next album. Shout out to all the go-getters, USDA, CTE you know what it is!
