Last February, Juvie was also arrested on a marijuana possession charge.
“The rapper (Juvenile) and music producer Leroy Edwards, 42, were both arrested on marijuana possession charges by agents of the sheriff’s Special Investigations Division, commanded by Col. Chad Clark,” said St. Bernard Parish Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Steve Cannizarro, “after an anonymous complaint called to the Sheriff’s Office about marijuana smoke coming from the house on Livingston Avenue, Sheriff Jack A. Stephens said at the time.” When deputies arrived at the home, Edwards was found in possession of marijuana by authorities. (WWLTV)
Outside of legal woes, Rap-A-Lot Records CEO J. Prince is planning to release Juvie’s next solo album.
“We don’t have a title for [Juvenile’s album] yet,” Prince said in an interview. “He has a real exciting single that I’m real crazy about. If I have it my way, the whole Cash Money crew is gonna be on there. They were family in the beginning, and I look at it and view ’em as family now. And my relationship with Baby and Slim is superb. You know, we’re all business men. So there’s no reason we can’t come together and make that happen.” (The Source)
