"Baby" Williams spotted him rhyming in New Orlean's Magnolia project yards. After maintaining persistence to be "put down" and dedication to developing his rhyming skills, the New Orleans native was asked to come to make a guest appearance on Juvenile's debut album, "Solja Rags" (1996). After that, things developed quickly for the teenage rapper at the time. In 1997, the Hot Boys were assembled, 2 of the four were already successful, B.G. and Juvenile, making a name for themselves in the local New Orleans rap scene. The two newcomers, Lil Wayne and later, Turk, rhymed in polished style that belied their young ages and inexperience. His first solo single was called "It's In Me". Young & Thuggin' still remains as one of the best Cash Money CD's out today.
