“Juvenile EXPOSES How Birdman
In a recent Nation of Podcast episode, Juvenile discussed the long-running rivalry between
New Orleans’ Calio and Magnolia projects and how it kept Cash Money and No Limit from working together for years.
He explained that the “street beef” between the two neighborhoods shaped the labels’ distance and limited collaboration.
Looking back on the recent Versus battle,
Juvenile felt the crowd reaction was disappointing,
saying it would have been better “if it was in New Orleans,”
where the original fanbase could appreciate the moment.
He also noted that missing artists like Mystikal and Soldier Slim hurt the event’s impact.
Juvenile reflected on Birdman’s influence, calling him someone who “never breaks character,”
and emphasized the importance of unity in hip-hop.
He expressed pride in New Orleans’ culture and said the city still deserves more recognition for its musical legacy.
