Atlanta rapper Jeezy is ready to make the entire world snow again. The Snowman recently talked about his non-stop grind plans for 2017.

In a new interview, the ATL native discussed his approach to rolling out this new year and shared his take on President Donald Trump.

“Just a lot of big business, get ready for that. About to go on tour for Trap or Die 3 with YFN Lucci from ATL. He’s from my city and Lil Durk, shout-out to Chicago. I’m back focused. Right after that, planning 2020, 2021, you know what I mean? That’s how we on it,” Jeezy said referring to 2017 plans. “America is a place of respect, we always been. The way we go about things is what makes us great and what makes people want to come here and start their life over. We just gotta keep that in mind, you know what I mean? I don’t think all people are bad people, nor am I in his position, so I don’t know what our threats are. But, I just know a lot of the things that he’s doing makes us look irate too. The worst thing you could do is take away from somebody’s hope and their dreams. I just feel that’s something we’re going to have to reconsider at some point.” (XXL Mag)

Last year, Jeezy made a huge impact on the record charts with his Trap Or Die 3 album.

The album, which was released on Oct. 28 through YJ/CTE/Def Jam Records, earned a little more than 89,000 units in the week ending Nov. 3, according to Nielsen Music. The set sold 73,000 in traditional album sales. Meek Mill’s new mixtape album DC4 debuts at No. 3 with 87,000 units (and 45,000 in traditional album sales), marking his third charting effort.

Recently, the Snowman talked about wanting to possibly do a joint album with rap mogul Jay Z.

“We talked about it after we went on tour. We had a couple of words about doing a project like that. At the time, he got busy and I got busy but there was definitely a conversation had about us doing some type of project whether it was an EP, a street album, or whatever. We would have to go in because it is me and him, so we would have to really go in and find a happy medium as far as the sound. But I definitely don’t think it’s impossible.” (Rap-Up)

In October, Jeezy announced he had a new album called Snow Season in the works.

“I’m feeling so good I’m going to go ahead and announce my next project,” Jeezy said in an interview. “If you see my hashtagging Snow Season, that’s for a reason. The first project was Trap Or Die 3 and my next project, I’m announcing it right now, is Snow Season. So, keep hashtagging Snow Season, I’m letting you know we on that ASAP. So it won’t be no retiring just yet.” (Complex)
