Michael Phelps: The Young Jeezy of the Swim World

Michael Phelps: The Young Jeezy of the Swim World

Young Jeezy is sooo great. A rapper from the South who raps about his .45 making his pants sag. He’s a model citizen and an obvious overall great guy, no? No!

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Jeezy was quoted as saying:

 

“I’m a big fan of Michael Phelps! He’s a great success. I like what he’s doing. He’s like the Young Jeezy of the swim world. I love it!”

Michael Phelps is an Olympic gold medalist, world-record breaker and he currently has million-dollar endorsement with Visa, Speedo and Omega. He has the most gold medals any American has ever earned in the Olympics and he has accomplished all this before the ripe age of twenty-four.

If anything, he’s reached Jay-Z status in the Olympics, not Young Jeezy.

should update the article. he got 8 in one olympics now... plus all wr's and he's the most decorated olympian of all-time.

Lil' Wayne, Yung Jeezy, Jay Z, Dr. Dre, Run DMC, Biggie, Marley, and Pac should all listen to Michael Phelps.

Michael Phelps has publicly talked about listening to Young Jeezy as his way to get pumped up before competition. Young Jeezy's response was a 'thank you' back to him. Posted 08/28/2008 12:01 PMReply

Yeah sorry Doc...HE'S a Jeezy fan! Like the guy up said Jeezys comment was to say thank you. Facts are essential...Jay has been rapping for over 10yrs, nothing new about that. Jeezy n Phelps are new generational. Don't be a hater, with all due respect. Posted 09/24/2008 11:05 AMReply
