Although his logo is an adorable drawing of an iced-out snowman, Young Jeezy is more crafty than artsy. While coming up in the trap, he didn't have much time to devote to sketching, decoupage, crocheting, or gouache—let alone pottery. He did, however, have a penchant for the pen. But he doesn't write down rhymes. Rather, Jeezy's Def Jam debut, Let's Get It: Thug Motivation 101, will be accompanied by a poignant tell-all autobiography. Leading up to his groundbreaking release, you can catch this Georgia po' boy sittin' sideways, riding the airwaves alongside Gucci Mane (great name) on his hit "So Icy" (even though the two hate each other now), or fellow dirties Boyz N Da Hood (horrible name), Diddy's newly orchestrated supergroup.

With that in mind, we really wanted to explore the inner mechanisms of Jeezy's writing habit. That's why we figured we'd have him play a little game of exquisite corpse. When the Surrealists were doing it, it allowed them to bypass the superego's censoring powers, giving way to an unadulterated subconscious scriptural flow. So why not see what results the exquisite corpse yields with this Southern realist? You know the drill: You gather a bunch of homies, have one write a sentence on a piece of paper, hide everything except the last word, pass the paper on to the next guy, who then writes starting from that one word he sees, passes the paper along, etc. When you finally unfold the sheet and read the whole text you're supposed to get freeform creation at its finest. But in our case, Young Jeezy, Coach K and stylist Mario were so focused that we got the exact same answers we would if we were interviewing them. Oh well.

Dispite whatever these people who put these comments on your site said. This was a decent article and it introduced the American culture, which so many countries are trying to immulate anyhow, into your world. Even more important this kid is blowing up, been given the title King of New York. So like I said good job.

I guess the black version of "exquisite corpse" should be redefined as "excruciating shite." There's a reason there weren't any black surrealists. And there's a reason the only black kids that like to get outside their brain and eat acid and get truly abstract and upside down only hang with white kids. Wanna know why? Because they're too smart to hang with dumb turds like these guys. But t.v. has established the dumb thug arcehtype and that's where 90% of black dudes are at. Hopefully since all those knuckledraggers are DL, maybe they'll boof themselves out of existence. anyone still reading? stop

Hey all you folks in Scandinavian countries:

Don't buy into the trash culture America is exporting around the globe.

Most of us think rap sucks.

I hope you do too.

Don't let foreigners into your country.

Or you'll end up a rapidly putrifying cesspool like the USA.
