Juvenile don’t get the clout he deserves that man music literally taught u how to move on these streets!!!!!!! One of the great storytellers too!!!!💯💯💯💯
Juvie is such a cool dude. Went to a concert of his at a club in Texas years back. He was just hanging out shooting pool right before going on stage to perform. Always remained humble ✊🏾
He got love up north too. He was like the only one from cash money I fvked with when they first came out. HA was just super different as far as the beat a d flow which is what hip hop is really about. He was just himself--the definition of keeping it real.
Only the real Juvie fans know Solja Rags was by far his best album and one of the most underrated rap albums in history. Every track was fire to this day
People don’t understand how small New Orleans is. When I say small, I mean SMALL! When I finally went to New Orleans, one of my first thoughts was “Damn, over 300-400 people got killed here in a year at one point?” And it blew my mind, because in a city that small, that means that the average person in NO has seen a person murdered at least twice in their lifetime. That is damn near unbelievable. So when Juve say all he seen was murder, I believe him. When NO rappers would say they would see a dead body every day, I believe them.
Salute to Juve for saying how the community helped his family after their eviction and never looked down on them either. Not enough people talk about how beautiful poverty can be at times
I’ll never forget how Juvenile and Mannie Fresh slid on the title track “400 Degreez”. Juve with the lyrics, and the way Mannie blacked at the end of that track. 🤌🏿
I am from the Westbank of New Orleans and would visit the Fischer Project or the Projects on the Eastbank and know it was a totally different experience. My first job was when I was 16 and I worked as a dishwasher at Tulane University. Tulane is Uptown so, alot of my coworkers were from the Uptown Projects and they would talk about the Projects being at war with one another. Juvenile had a verse on one of his songs talking about going in the Projects and getting stuck and not being able to leave because of gun battles. That shit was real!!!!!!! New Orleans has always been vicious but the late 80's and early 90's were on a whole nother level!!!!!!! God bless all my Brothers who was outside around that time, you had to be some serious diplomats, thinkers and you not be cowardly and flinching up and reacting out of fear because death was literally just around the corner!!!!!!!
Yet another reaaon why most (not all) of the original downtown 7th ward Creoles got the F outta there in the 50's up to Katrina. Los Angeles is full of NOLA folk especially old 7th ward families who maintain ties to the city.
bird man a whole ferry n toni braxton is his beard he like lil b0y$ too hes prolly as gross as it gets.... his r kelly days will come soon... they will get him - watch
This about to be one of the best ! When I was workin in New Orleans I would see this dude so many times at the craps table . Real cool down to earth brotha .
Same here. What's crazy was when I was 5 I got into them before Outkast and I'm from the ATL lol. Never owned any of their albums, but how Cash Money were received on the stations and well liked, I thought they were at the time.
I was just jamin his music like two nights ago. He has always been one of my favorite artists. Thank you for doing this interview. I can't wait to see all of it. Hope everyone is doing well. Blessings. 💯
I remember years ago I seen a doc about New Orleans. Dude said; “in La a gang drive by and kill 1 person. In New Orleans, 1 Guy run in a crib and kill 5 guys”. That was before Katrina hit but the scene of New Orleans was gutter, gutter. Respect for Master P and Birdman for building a empire out of there.
@A proud White man ATLien myself, I always thought it was awesome finding out some people from the East coast really messed with southern hip-hop. I feel like that's definitely a badge of honor on the artists because it shows that hip-hop doesn't always have to be about 15 internal rhymes for a 16, or 3 songs on an album personifying yourself as a weapon to be dope. Salute ✌
@@JimmyStruthers1000 nyc is really not wild like that . i grew up in nyc and lived in new orleans for a lil it was really like another country . nothing like ny back then
I knew N.O got busy but that story I saw about 3NG put it in proper perspective. Them young boys out there kill for sport. Being a BIG STEPPER is as important to them dudes as getting money.
@@GMB726 Chicago basically like that now and been like that for over 5 years now with the kids committing most of the shootings/murders. Yet nobody is really finding a way to stop the violence even BLM don’t really give the support it gives against police which I think is a disservice to our people. Those same groups should take that opportunity to speak out and protest just like they do when a cop pulls a trigger on a black men but instead it’s a black kid pulling the trigger on a black man, woman, girl, boy, mother, father, uncle, cousin, brother, sister, grandmas and grandpas it should receive the same energy. We gotta stop killing each other and making our communities dangerous for the youth and families mmm. Obviously no other race truly loves us and we acting like we don’t love us either if that don’t change we dimmed.
To me, juvenile is the greatest rapper from the south. Because of him I fell in love with southern rap music. 400 degreez is a classic, Project English, G code this dude was pure Gold
Notice how Juvie is acknowledging that he grew up in a tough environment, but at the same times he's trying to give a somewhat positive review on it. Vlad only asking that question to get Juvie to talk about violent negative shit. Then at 2:43, Vlad finally gets tired of it and jumps right into the negative
Juvie has a classic album that most people don’t remember called Reality Check. Every song a banger. Him and Scott Storch on almost every track tore shit down. Also had Kanye’s co producer Mike Dean on it.Big single was Rodeo. Shit was fire
I wonder if Juvie has processed all of the lives he has seen lost in such as violent way. I wonder how mentally and emotionally he has been affected by it. Much respect to Juvenile!
Im waiting for this one frfr...Im glad i had the pleasure of meeting him some years back at club roxy when i stayed in Houston tx lol they wouldn't let them in that night cause of dress code but still showed love so salute💯💯🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👍

@@Mir2Nastyy I agree but those aren't totally separate issues. There's def a relationship between the systemic racism blm movement is focused on & the conditions that lead to violence against each other. Especially the drug war of 80s/90s had a huge destructive impact on black communities and family unit. I agree though it should be getting as much attention though- these kids are dying we should be addressing from every angle possible...
@@combofriend4461 exactly ik it ain’t the same but it should get the same attention and protest and people who act like it shouldn’t are part of the problem because if we can’t unite and fix ourselves together we can’t stand together against anyone. MLK brought us altogether for a bigger cause but now we hate and kill each other just as much as racist cops, politicians, and other races do. We need to find the route of hate for each other n why we do quick to kill a black man but not as quick to kill a white man?
The south is dangerous as hell someone has a handgun......small , big , long, someone has one in the south arguments in the south will lead to a gun play thong quickkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk but ill tell u this I stayed in Brooklyn before a whole different level people living on top of each other.........now thst shit ...........thstss another demon nothing can compre to thst lol......
Juvie the Great... 34 from Chicago. 7th grade thru high school 1999-2005 ... house parties, the Rink, school dances... music was great and life was fun... Chicago here
For those that don’t remember, Juvenile was probably the biggest hip hop artist in the world in 99-2000 aside from Eminem, Jay Z and DMX. He was big time.
Where I'm from the Bronx had and still got alot of love for the Nola I remember seeing my dad albums with bg and Juvie hip hop gave black people a voice everywhere
Juve: people reaching to help... Vlad: I don't care about that positive bullshit of you helping others or people helping you. Tell me about the violence and negative things regarding black people
I would love to see this one as a whole but I don’t have the patience to wait it out for the full upload... I love New Orleans and I love Juve... This is a solid choice Vlad..
Neworleans in the early and mid 2,000’s before Katrina was kind of equivalent to what Chicago is now. When them projects were up Neworleans was one of the most dangerous cities I ever seen. I remember going out there for the summers from up north to see my dads side of the family, I would always come back to DC with war stories. Man bring back memories, Neworleans will always be my second home. It’s kind of different last time I went down there though, Katrina changed it a lot.
