    Young Jeezy’s on some “Grown-Man Sh#t” in the September 2008 issue of XXL Magazine.  Jeezy’s lookin kinda sexy on this cover (lawd..somebody shoot me!).  Foxy’s back in the game too and covers the mag on the same month.  They say the “Boss B#tch is Back” but we’ll just have to wait and see on that one.

    T.I. covers the August 2008 issue of XXL Magazine.  Inside the issue, T.I. addresses his federal gun charges and how his life has changed in the aftermath.  He also explains why he chose to seek weapons and also why he doesn’t blame anyone for the decisions he made that got him in that predicament.  In addition to the obvious questions about the gun charges & snitching, T.I. also told XXL that he feels that the beef between he and fellow Atlanta rapper Shawty Lo is all just a misunderstanding.

     ”I look.  I check ‘em out.  I separate my feelings.  I can’t take it personal.  I look at it like that’s how they do everybody…”
