A product of New Orleans' infamous Magnolia projects, Juvenile, born Terius Gray, has ascended way above sea level. Always determined to stay focused on reaching his life's goals, Juvenile worked at the local gas plant to help support his family and allow himself the "luxury" of following his dream of being a successful rapper. "I'm about the only one from where I come from that's doing my thing," says a reflective Juvenile.

As a burgeoning local rapper, Juvenile became instrumental in blending Hip-Hop with what is known as "bounce" music. The success of "Bounce For The Juvenile," the first-ever bounce record with New Orleans local icon, DJ Jimi, led to a short-lived deal with a small New York record label. Unfortunately, the experience left a bitter taste in Juve's mouth. He eventually opted to give up his cherished hobby, rather than do it injustice.

Thinking back to those trying times, Juvenile laments, "They wanted me to (only) do bounce music and I was telling them, 'Hey man, I'm a rapper; y'all got me twisted.'"

But he couldn't stay away from what he loved so dearly. He kept his day job, as he began to frequent New Orleans' House Of Blues on Hip-Hop night to get back into the groove of his passion. "I got my feel back and I realized one thing," he says, "We didn't have a New Orleans rapper that straight up used our language, rapped for our people. Everybody wanted to be either east coast or west coast. That's where I came in."

On his way home from another exasperating day on the job, Juvenile caught the attention of Cash Money Records, then a local boutique label making big noise in the southern region. After convincing Co-CEOs Ronald "Slim" and Bryan "Baby" Williams of his abilities and determination, the Williams brothers signed Juvenile on.

Juve's first release for Cash Money Records was the underground smash "Solja Rags" in 1997. "Solja Rags" sold nearly 200,000 copies in the southern region alone and gainfully set up the super-group, Hot Boys. Composed of Juvenile and CMR labelmates Turk, Lil' Wayne, and B.G., Hot Boys debuted with "Get It How U Live" in 1997, mounting close to a half million sales.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BOOK/HIRE JUVENILE?
(i.e., what is the booking fee to hire JUVENILE for an event?)
(i.e., what is JUVENILE booking fee to perform at an event?)

Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.

As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when becoming less popular.

Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime. Generally, the artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
