In a separate interview with VladTV, he confirmed the mixtape exists, but said it was shelved due to label politics.
“We didn’t get to put the album out on a major label because there was too much politics at the time,” Juelz explained. “You had Def Jam, Universal, Cash Money and Diplomats. Four different entities that had to come upon an agreement and come under one accord to push a project.”
