Juelz Santana and Lil Wayne have teased a collaborative project, ‘I Can’t Feel My Face,’ since the 2000s, with both rappers seeing success along with trials and tribulations over the years. While the project never saw the light of day, a new album for the two was teased. Since then, Juelz Santana spoke about Wayne while on Twitter Spaces and defended the rapper against claims of Wayne stealing his style.
Juelz was present for Wayne’s 40th birthday celebration and addressed allegations of Wayne biting his style. Juelz said, “N***as love to, you know, especially these blogs … they love to always hit me with the, ‘Oh, Wayne took all this from you.’”
The Harlem rapper shut down that narrative, saying, “I’m like, ‘Man, Wayne is a student of the game just like we’ve all been students of the game.’ So Wayne did exactly what he was supposed to do. Wayne studied every artist.” Juelz then said, “That’s my brother at the end of the day,” before saying, “He took what he needed to take, and he incorporated it into his style and what he needed to do and became the best artist that he needed to be for himself.” Listen above.
