How Juelz Santana ALMOST Became A Rap Superstar
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 дек 2024
- Juelz Santana went from a young prodigy to a rap legend due to his work within the legendary Harlem-based rap group Dipset. He had plenty of success within the group but his solo run left a lot more to be desired. At a point in time, he was featured on the number 1 record in the country, he had the number 1 rap album in the country, he had a Nike/Team USA commercial, and almost dropped a collab album with arguably the best rapper in the game back then with that being Lil Wayne.
Juelz dropped his last album ever at the age of 23 in 2005. Juelz had the look, mic presence, influence, and talent to take him to the top but he just never reached that next level for multiple reasons.

Juelz was the voice of the youth when he came out. We both were in high school. He spoke for us (millennials) after 9/11
Cap
This is facts
@@TreFKennedy😂😂😂
@@TreFKennedySounds like u weren't around. Juelz was everywhere 02-05
@@travisrochelle4499 i was in 10th grade (05-2006) and Juelz was cool but wasn’t the superstar ppl are projecting into him
My favorite thing about Juelz was how he rhymed the same word over his bars lol it was simple but concise also how he would incorporate the sample of the beat into his rhymes bruh was going crazy back in the days
Like Camrons rhyme I’ll take her to abe right after abc that’s Aok lmao
Everyone did this 😂
julez and lil Wayne was the most feared with the bars at a point in time
Facts
Juelz was better than wayne...TNP
@@neezotnp I don’t think so lol
Santana is a special artist man.
Him and Wayne are like McGrady and Kobe
Perfect analogy Wayne was Kobe and just kept goin but at one point they were dam near equal
No the fuck they aren’t
Lmfaoooo
Can’t feel my face jawns was hard
I like this analogy lol but fr though mid 2000s Wayne with Santana on a track was 🔥
"Get in the car, don't touch nothing sit in the car" Juelz lit up both main singles from Camron's "Come Home With Me" album and since that day has been highly regarded in my book
Just wish we’d got that Regan Era album.. still waiting… 15 years. Great content man 👌🏻🙏🏻
Juelz was definitely one of my favorites back when I was in high school his debut was cool I just wish he was able to capitalize more off his buzz at the time
Julez Santana is one of my favorite rappers off DipSet, him and Killa Cam, flat out
I’ve always been a fan of Juelz from the Dipset era but as a solo artist, I always enjoyed his verses on songs when he did collabs or on his own.
The real ones remember that Diplomats vol. 1 🔥🔥🔥 man when i jumped in the T-Top cutlass with my big cuz i was bout 18 years old and he was banging that “Facts of life” that shyt changed my life!! I was the biggest Dipset fan since that day
Juelz was much more lyrical early on, I think he used to write rhymes when he felt inspired, but later switched to just writing in the studio, his pen game suffered tremendously.
That and sometimes i feel like he got stuck in his flow and it didn’t translate well on sum beats or the time
Juelz was a superstar where I’m from 😂 growing up dipset was blasting through every speaker in New Jersey
Juelz is "never outshine ya master" if it was a person he literally was the hottest dip at the time
He had the most people impactful fits and was the youth of that group. But Cam albums were too good.
Max came out and gave everyone the Wave. The only Dip who wasn’t affected negatively by it is Cam. Free Max B
Those cant feel my face joints are amazing
my favourite Dipset member first 2 albums are classics and he is the best part and biggest highlight on Diplomatic Immunity imo even had a better performance than Cam’ron. really wish he dropped more studio albums
He was right there at the cusp of becoming a rap superstar. The whistle song was huge.
That song wasn't hittin up here
That song was also featured in fast and furious Tokyo drift movie
His name is LaRon James! That's crazy 😂😂😂
The dipset beats used to be crazy
Amazing coverage on his career. Thank you for this dope content piece 🗽
He was at his peek when mic check came out. Even when 50 and G unit was out Santana was buzzing in NYC. I saw the impact dipset had when I visited my fam in Miami and ppl were dressing like him and cam. I think the drugs stopped him from taking it to the next level. The proof is in the pudding just look at him currently, sad to see
The drugs fucked his drive up
I Can’t Feel My Face, as a group they had so much potential.
Love Dipset, Killa Cam and Santana the Great
God Will'n was such a good project for him to follow up with an album...I hate how we got robbed of his talent, between his 3rd album/Collab album with Weezy.
I can’t feel my face is super underrated 🔥
YESSIR CLOUT!! Thank you 🫡 AIIGHT!
I was just listening to from me to you album and came across this video lol. That album is classic, squalie!!!!!
I fuck wit juelz heavy and i have since high school since the early 2000s but legend is a stretch by longer than a mile
This guy was the truth. Real inspiration and incredible flow and swag !
My homie Juelz Santana dope albums and mixtapes
From me too you is a classic ass album🔥🔥💯....miss Juelz...
At one time juelz was my one of my fav rappers,what the games been missing was in my cd player a longggg time
Juelz always had an unique style
Juelz traded his swag to weezy for lean when weezy went to nyc after Katrina 💯
Facts. If you know you know
Did he got heavy into opiates?? Could be one of the reasons why he hasnt released a proper studio album in 20 years, almost 20 fkin years, thats insane but if he was or is battling his addiction, well thats a rough battle for sure.
Absolutely
Bro I m from New Orleans and been in Harlem for 15 years I said the same thing when he got on it he couldn’t handle it
Lol hilarious
Every mixtape you mention.. I have. That was crazy
Dope as always bro. Love the growth.
I still have his first album on cd. Still listen to it from time to time. Especially monster music.
your channel is really dope man. i love how you cover so many classic albums and great artists that other channels dont highlight as much. great job
This was so well put together, congrats man.
One of my favorites unique style and flawless flow
Him and Wayne had the same work ethic but in juelz’s case it was limited Wayne is an anomaly he goes even crazier no matter what drxgs he uses Juelz couldn’t do that they both teens starting their careers
Juelz had same work ethic as Wayne nigga just never released anything cause he was on a crazy mixtape run said his music hard drive got stolen and it made him lose his ambition to rap
Lies people have said juelz would go to the studio, get lean’d out and fall asleep and not record anything
@@luckylefty914 Everyone got days they not feeling it Juelz was on a heavy feature run like Wayne they used his buzz to promote the lesser dipset acts not to mention he tried to put on his wack crew skull gang or something also he kept announcing Reagan era album tht shit went through atleast 3 diff changes said he had so many unreleased songs shit was crazy
But also Juelz wanted off dipset and camron wouldn’t let him release stuff
In Harlem watching this
this video was putt together well thank you this was dope
Juelz Santana Is Definitely In My Top 10 An Will Be Always An Forever
Then you stupid and don’t know rap is Juelz is in your top ten 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Santana was definitely nice went hard
Those beats man. Juelz was elite back then. Lil Wayne changed his style after rapping with Juelz. That’s a fact.
Congrats on the come up. Great video! Thanks
"One of them brand new big boy toys/i do big boy things i make big boy noise" 💯
Dipset had so many mixtapes coming out back in the day… they owned NY back then
Its funny how the songs of Juelz didnt really chart on the billboards list but they were all bangers of the streets, everybody was blasting dipset at this time in nyc, they were the soundtrack of the streets in those days. Besides he said what he thinks about that subject on that song in this video. Great video.
They had some of hardest beats I ever heard
My fav out the Set.. Nolie. Got most of his work. From albums 2 just about every & any mixtape
Juelz santana is like a oem engine u know he had more potential power to put out
Santana is definitely one of the hardest rappers of my childhood 💯 and that's no cap 🧢
I think that studio raid really killed his motivation.
Yea I said the same thing. Like he’s hesitant about dropping albums now
I know you’ve done some 3 6 stuff, but maybe one day you can do what happened to all the members as they left the group. Anyway keep up the great work love the consistency.
Being from South Carolina, we didn’t really mess with New York rappers. Wayne is the goat and Jay isn’t even in the top ten where we from BUT Cam, Juelz, and Jimmy were fire for us and the best out of NY. Thanks for taking me down memory lane
You’re from South Carolina… so we don’t expect you to know good rap music.
@@justincredible9875thank you 😂
@@justincredible9875you from new York? I don't expect you to have enough sense to be ashamed
i didnt know alot that was in here this was fire as usual appreciated
I listen to his music when I'm going to work or coming home from work or when I'm sad
I remember when Juelz used to called himself human cracc in the flesh now he looking like a straight customer 😞
Need one on Common bro
I always thought he was overhyped trash. Cassidy, Lloyd banks, and Fabolous was far ahead of their time
great video. love Juelz Santana. Beat at the end?
Dope dope content bro. What's the name of that intro track?
Legend slow down,he was aight
Dipset is a legend group
@@seanreyes7694yeah group but a Legend is somebody that stands on his own with or without a group,A Legend is somebody like T.i regardless to what you think about him his career is impactful through and through,don’t get me wrong Santana was incredible in the group dynamic had a number one with Chris brown,he’s done Legend things but it was for a short period 2002-2005,I don’t consider pop champagne to be Legendary ish but to each his own.
Underrated Pioneer. Started The Soulful & Sampling Beat Sound 🔥 & He Pioneered The Chrome Heart & BB Simon Wave Too. Really Wish He Got To Reach His Full Rap Potential. You Can Put Young Juelz Wit The Best Of Em & He Was Gonna Hold His Own Fa Sure
His whole swag looks like he pulled it out of Camrons hamper..
Gods will was dope
Still rmr seeing my brother wit the skull belts and red bandanna in ‘06 ‘07😂
2005 WAS HARD
Juelz will always be my top 3 of all time
That crack freestyle was murder they say the spirits is with me listen you should be hearing them with me
I can’t let you say that, Jules had AT LEAST a year. Which is A LOT if we’re talking stardom in hip hop.
Your buggin he was huge
I can’t feel my face album was sickkkkkkkk
He signed a bad contract and chose the easy route instead of hard work.
Salute to the Harlem legend
Thought he was gonna be the one. That run with Wayne show me they both was different
He been da truth crown 👑 him
Juelz and Wayne Black Republican too classic! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He did drop mixtape with weezy...."I cant feel my face" album
What was the song used before 0:48
Santana thought he reached the mountain top and became complacent. He was never that guy for me. He was someone who looked like he had potential to be huge, but he never got there
When they divided he fell off and got mega lazy Skull gang was a good attempt and there was some good tapes but they never got recognized outside of the tape circuit. He then basically faded away into drug problems. Him and Jones were neck and neck with tape saturation at that time but san just fell off and stop making music and jones kept in a steady bubble of being underground street fame and its only recently that he started branching out again into the main stream.
I think at least on Jones part this is by design because he wants a certain level of street fame without being main stream sellout even though he is at the top of the ladder byrdgang was under one of the three primaries for example which was Time Warner. warner music group which is one of the big three majors. Cam does not care about music from how he puts himself out now but he does own some business so he good. All of the rest around the outside of the team seem like they fell off pretty hard though and ones like A mafia and others fell off while they were still active in their prime. One other that should of done a lot better was Rell he was fire back in the day and had some good solo work but eventually fizzed out.
You should do a video on S.O.S they were members of dipset from London and apparently took Jules hostage I remember seeing that shit on dvd as a teenager
On Oakland me 82 February
Juelz was the hottest in dipset 🔥🔥🔥 And I'm a big dipset fan
I STILL CANT FEEEEEEEL MY FACE #SANATANAAAA #AYYYY
Whats the song at 0:25
In NYC, in the 2000s, he was a superstar.
Bought From me to you and what the game's been missing on their release dates
of that 2003 class, in hindsight, the most successful members would be
Game
Chingy
Banks
Juelz
Buck
Joe
then the guy next to Buck and Juelz
Da 🐐
Does anyone know what the name of the first song Julez is rapping on?
ALMOST ?? bro he was definitely a rap superstar..
Missed the part where he was kidnapped im London.
lol shout out to Luka braszi in that pic wit the all black mink with the hat
U got to do a Pop Smoke Documentary or a Young Dolph
Never in my life did I think he was ever close to Wayne, seemed like Wayne was looking out for a good friend more than anything making music with him. Not being sarcastic by any means.
Juelz had barz from debut, youth and success fkd that up for him,Wayne grew into his barz, Wayne idolized NY rap and always wanted to rap like New Yorkers,it took him a while but now Wayne hands down is the most lyrical rapper along side Big Pun
