In a recent sit-down with Sway, Juvenile opened up about the situation, expressing his disappointment and clarifying that Turk’s removal wasn’t something he had any control over.
The New Orleans rapper, who was originally slated to join Juvenile, Lil Wayne, and B.G. on the long-awaited tour, is no longer part of the lineup. When asked whether the rest of the group could have stood together to demand Turk’s inclusion, Juvenile explained that the tour had already gained too much momentum to reverse course without disappointing fans and promoters alike. Caught between loyalty to his friend and commitments to fans and business partners, Juvenile acknowledged the difficult position he found himself in. While Turk’s absence is certainly felt by longtime fans of the iconic Cash Money group, Juvenile’s remarks make it clear that he did what he could to keep the original lineup intact. For now, the show goes on—with hopes that future opportunities might bring the full Hot Boys squad back together again.
