DETROIT (WXYZ) — Hip-hop icon Jeezy is in Detroit with a full day of events on Friday.

He started his morning at Cass Tech High School. 7 News Detroit anchor Carolyn Clifford was on hand as he joined Henry Ford Health to talk about health care in the community and support on-site screening tests. He gave an exclusive interview to Carolyn.

"It feels a lot like family and always has. It's .. real, because ... I've been to a lot of cities, but I don't think I have a connection with any other cities that I know of that's as strong as Detroit. It's like we're like a distant family. Every time we come together ... it's a real love," Jeezy said about his love for Detroit.
