The first big hip-hop tour of 2007 kicks off tomorrow night in Charlotte, North Carolina, with Young Jeezy headlining and taking Lil' Wayne, Fat Joe, Jim Jones, Baby, and Rich Boy along with him.

The 25-date jaunt, to which additional shows are expected to be added, will spend most of its time in the Midwest and South, although the itinerary currently winds up April 29 at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles.

"I really wanted to go out with just some cats," Jeezy told MTV News of the tour. "It's one of them thangs, man. Them cats is up and running right now. There's bigger tours you can do, but I wanted to do something that was strictly for the streets--like them old-school shows you used to go to and all your favorite dudes was on the stage."
