Young Jeezy plans to make a fan's dream come true

By: Yves Erwin Salomon

Young Jeezy recently released the third single, "Dreamin'" featuring Keyshia Cole, from his platinum sophomore album, The Inspiration. The rapper has decided to launch the Make Your Dreams Come True contest in conjunction with the new single. He's asking fans to submit their dreams directly to him at his website, youngjeezy.com by June 21st. On July 23rd, he will announce the winner and fulfill that person's dream.

Jeezy said in a released statement, "Sometimes I look at my life and I'm amazed at how far I've come. If it wasn't for certain people supporting me, I don't think I'd be able to accomplish what I have...that's why I'm doing this for my fans. They're the ones who helped to make Young Jeezy number one and it's important that I give back to them. I wanted to do more than just say 'thank you,'I wanted to show them how thankful I am that they're helping me realize my dreams. For me, this whole contest, and even my career will make me feel like I've accomplished a lot if I can help someone else realize their dreams too."

In addition to the contest, Young Jeezy recently launched his Eighty Seven Thirty Two (8732) clothing line through Rocawear. The rapper will also release the debut album from his group, USDA, on May 22nd. The album, Young Jeezy Presents USDA: Cold Summer "The Authorized Mixtape," will feature Jeezy and his two proteges Blood Raw and Slick Pulla.

The rapper explained that he attempted to break the new group while touring. He said: "It's the best way to go city to city and get everybody out there to really like your music, you know what I mean, and deal with the type of movement you got going on. So you know to me it's just a plus. You know I like to be on the road anyway so it's just a grind, you know?"
