Juvenile Reacts To NBA YoungBoy’s Modification Of The “400 Degreez” Cover Art

NBA YoungBoy is currently having a great run. The rapper has recently been mind-blowingly busy, releasing a total of five albums this year—yes, five—in all. He began the run in January with Colors and released Better Than You, a collaborative album with DaBaby, soon after. Then he dropped Realer 2 a month after The Last Slimeto, an album with a total of thirty songs.

YoungBoy released his fifth album, 3800 Degrees, on Friday. Any old heads tuning in immediately recognized the project’s cover art as an obvious reference to Juvenile’s 1998 song 400 Degrees. Juvenile saw the allusion and responded to it on Instagram.

“I just want to say thank you to @neverbrokeagainllc for redoing 400 degrees over in his own way at the peak of his career appreciate the love young boss,” Juve wrote this at the bottom of the image of YoungBoy’s album cover.

YoungBoy’s most recent album, which is brimming with fire and swagger, reestablishes what makes him such a sought-after musician. Features from E-40, Shy Glizzy, and Mouse On Tha Track are included in the project.

While 400 Degreez went four times platinum by the end of 2000, it is still Juvenile’s best-selling album overall. The famous album, which won R&B Album of the Year at the 1999 Billboard Music Awards, features the singles “Back That Azz Up” and “Ha.” The album appeared at number 470 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time in 2020.
