The long-awaited reunion of the Hot Boys has finally happened after being anticipated for over a decade.
For the first time in 15 years, the legendary hip-hop group which consists of Young Money member Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Turk and B.G performed together on stage, thrilling patrons at Weezy’s ‘Weezyana’ Festival held in New Orleans.
During the Cash Money collective’s 22-minute performance, they performed back to back hits such as Get Your Roll On,” “I Need a Hot Girl,” and “Neighborhood Superstar,” during which the act was joined by Big Tymers’ Mannie Fresh and Birdman as reported by New Orleans Times-Picayune.
This year’s Lil WeezyAna Fest also featured solo performances from Juvenile, who brought down the house with “Back That Azz Up,” and B.G., who delivered “Bling Bling.”
Earlier in September, Lil Wayne teased the reunion of Hot Boys in an X post. Juvenile earlier this year hinted at a Cash Collective performance at New Orleans’ Essence Fest. He also disclosed that the group was working on a full album.
“Hot Boys is back together, man. What you talkin’ about put the Hot Boys back together? Show y’all ain’t keeping up with sh–,” he said on Instagram Live in May. “Turk gonna be with me tonight, I’m gonna be with B.G. next week. Me, Wayne, Turk and B.G., all of us gonna be on stage in New Orleans with Mannie Fresh and Birdman. And we already done started working on a Hot Boys album. Any other f—ing questions? Keep on askin’ put the Hot Boys together. Have some f—in’ patience.”
Fans were disappointed after despite all the hype and early joy, the reunion never happened at the Essence Fest.
