“Who U Calling A ….. Honored To Meet The 1 N Only @queenlatifah not only that I got to re N act 1 of my fav seance from my favorite movie with her WOW,” Juelz wrote. “If U Know U Know… LEGENDARY Couldn’t Let Her Leave Without A Pic #ICFMF #WeInMotion #BackOutSide.”
It’s unclear which scene Juelz was referring to as Queen Latifah has one of the most extensive movie résumés in Hip Hop. One of her most popular roles was the character Cleopatra “Cleo” Simmons from the classic 1996 film Set It Off, in which she went out with a bang in a shootout with police.
In addition to ticking off bucket list moments with legends like Queen Latifah, Juelz Santana is getting ready to release a new album. Last December, the Harlem native announced he’s dropping a new Gangsta Grillz mixtape with DJ Drama.
“We In Motion… The Album…Top Of The Year…long Time Coming #ICFMF #BackOutSide,” Juelz revealed in an Instagram post.

The 40-year-old vet has been teasing songs that may show up on the mixtape for the last several months. So far, he’s hinted at appearances from Lil Wayne, Jadakiss, Lil Durk, Chief Keef, Joyner Lucas and more, although an official tracklist has yet to be revealed.
Santana also recently hinted that his long-awaited I Can’t Feel My Face collab project with Weezy might actually see the light of day sometime soon.
“All I’m a say is, Wayne is my brother,” he told TMZ last summer. “We are never not working on music outside of each other, as well as together, so for us to do a I Can’t Feel My Face project is definitely not unlikely to happen.”
