It's been 11 years since Juvenile put out an album with the Cash Money stamp on it, but the rapper says he's back with Birdman and company.
"It's already done, I signed the paperwork," Juvenile told MTV News in September. "I'm signed back, Rich Gang, I'm getting ready to get my little tattoo and everything, it's all love, I'm back. I'm here to stay too."
Juvenile put out three records with Cash Money in the late '90s, including the club favorite 400 Degreez in 1998. He left CMR in 2001 due to contract disagreements, returning with 2003's Juve the Great before bouncing yet again.
"Even though we through what we been through, we're older now... we're grown. We all spoke, we always spoke, Wayne did music with him," Birdman said of Juvenile in September. "I just feel like the time is right, I had him in the studio and I think he got the right records. I really know how focused he is with his craft, he ain't lost that, he can rap his ass off."
Baby also has big plans for the returned rapper. "To be working with Juvie again, I'm excited about that 'cause I know what I can bring out of him. I know with the platform I have he can be bigger than he was before," the CMR co-founder added.
Juvenile's last effort, The Fundamentals, came out in February via Rap-A-Lot Records. It peaked at number 37 on the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop albums chart.
"Man, I plan on retiring here. You start where you finish - I ain't going no where, I'm here," Juve said about ending his career with Cash Money.
