Jay Wayne Jenkins, better known by his stage name Jeezy, says he learned early on about the power of faith.

The Grammy-nominated recording artist and entrepreneur says his grandmother kept him in line growing up and taught him the importance of trusting and believing in himself.

“I can remember, I can write something that can make people feel how I’m expressing myself, and that’s when I started to hit my strides with my mixtapes,” said Jeezy.
