Jeezy’s “Seen It All” tour found the rapper making an extra special stop at a juvenile detention center in Detroit. Offering words of encouragement to the 120 resident facility, the rapper gave a talk at the Wayne County Juvenile Detention Center. He assured the troubled youth – aged between 8 and 19 – that their current situation did not have to be the end of the road.
