JUVENILE AND BIRDMAN WORKING ON JOINT ALBUM

Juvenile and Birdman teased a video during the week of a song titled 'Just Another Gangsta'.The two are said to be currently working on a collaborative album to be released under Stunna's Cash Money.Juve was one of Birdman and Slim's first signings for the label and his first solo album for Cash Money, '400 Degreez' reached quadruple platinum status.That feat sat on the back of the mainstream success he had enjoyed with the Hot Boyz,a group comprising himself,Lil Wayne,BG and Big Turk.He left the label in 2001 over contractual disputes and sued Cash Money the next year claiming he was cheated out of royalties.The matter was settled out of court and Juve dropped his last album for the label titled 'Juve The Great' in 2003.
However, this isn't the first known effort at a Cash Money reunion.In 2016, Juve,Wayne and former label producer, the super-talented Mannie Fresh released a song called 'Hate' and were said to be working on a collaborative album that never came to fruition.
Birdman has a reputation for lavishing his artistes with gifts and falling out with them over their entitlements but if anything, this album stands to benefit more a Juvenile who though still makes dope songs, doesn't quite command as much attention as he used to.
