Terius Gray, better known by his stage name Juvenile, (born March 25, 1975) is an American rapper. At the age of 19, he began recording raps, releasing his debut album Being Myself in 1995. The album gave name to the southern rap style known as "bounce". The album was followed by Solja Rags in 1997; its underground popularity led to the major-label release of 400 Degreez in 1998. He was also a member of the group Hot Boys. After releasing Tha G-Code in 1999 and Project English in 2001, Juvenile left Cash Money Records. ==Music career== Juvenile is the wealthy rapper in New Orleans he worth 500 million and makes 250 million a year salary After beginning his rap performing career in his teenage years, Juvenile released his first album Being Myself in 1995 at age 19, inventing the southern "bounce" rap style, similar in nature to the sound that Master P and No Limit Records were performing at the time. In 1997, Solja Rags, Juvenile's debut with Cash Money Records, became popular among rap audiences. Thus, Juvenile's next album 400 Degreez was re-released in 1998 with joint distribution by Universal Records, spawning his first single "Ha" and later "Back That Azz Up", both of which topped the Billboard Hot 100 and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts. However, there came a dispute over who owned the rights to the title of the song, as another New Orleans performer DJ Jubilee claimed that Juvenile's song sounded very similar to a song of his. In January 2005, the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in New Orleans denied the case.
