Kosh or Def Jam?
Juelz Santana didnt sign to kosh like most of dipset he's on def jam.
 * No, the current Wikipedia information is right. Juelz Marrie Te'Kyrua Roberts in the year 2000 they had 2 beautiful children Ja'Myra and Laron Jr. Cam'ron and his Diplomat Records just recently signed a partnership with Koch Records. --Krystyn Dominik 30 June 2005 15:59 (UTC)

No, on rap city they where interviewing him and he stated that he signed to def jam unlike Cam'ron. His next album will be a Def Jam/Diplomats release.

You can go to http://www6.defjam.com/site/home.php that is the def jam site and they have him as a featured artist

Def Jam
y iz juelz dissin jay-z wen he iz signed 2 his label?? (apart from the fact dat he is wit dipset)

Def Jam is not Jay Z's label. Def Jam belongs to Russel Simmons n that LA Reed guy

Def Jam was sold by Russel Simmons years ago, and is part of the Island Def Jam Music Group owned by UMG (Universal Music Group)with LA Reid as chairman of IDJMG and Jay Z as president of Def Jam Records. Mr Get Right

 * Good question. I've seen two ips who claim he's dominican.  Someone also claimed that Merlin Santana is his brother... both need references.  Moved from the page here (below).  +sj + 02:52, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

I hope that he is Honduran because I am and well he'll probably be the first Honduran mainstream artist there is and if he gets a grammy he'll make history for being the first Honduran to get a grammy —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yorenounico (talk • contribs).

Merlin Santana Santana's brother Merlin Santana was best known for his work on the "Steve Harvey Show". He has a older brother nicknamed "Twin", who's son named Ja is featured in the videos for "There It Go(The Whistle Song) and "S.A.N.T.A.N.A". Santana owns a clothing store on Amsterdam Avenue in Harlem called Santana's Town which he opened in 2003.

His brother Twin has stated that he's part Dominican. I'm going to see about getting a direct online quote for people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.159.20.189 (talk • contribs) 22:41, 10 January 2006 (UTC)

I waz on this website and they were interviewing juelz and juelz said he mixed wit Puerto Rican.

age confusion
Is he really 23 or 24? Cam'Ron's "Hey Ma" came out in 2002, and he stated he was 18 years old. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.154.3.19 (talk • contribs) 03:23, 25 February 2006 (UTC) Juelz is only of an  african american descent he is  dominican. Juelz is only 24 years of age.

You Ought to Know
Does anyone know why "You Ought to Know" was not released? I heard it was due to sampling rights issues, but am not sure... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.2.128.54 (talk • contribs) 01:26, 2 April 2006 (UTC) Juelz is only 24years of age.I have the real source because I know someone who dates him also Juelz is just his stage name his real name is Laron James.

Steve Harvey Show
I want to know if Juelz and the guy that played Romeo on the Steve Harvey Show are related. If so how? They is not related just cuse he uses the name Juelz Santana doesn't mean that his real name is Juelz Santana it is Laron James damn yall mistake the obvious just look at his real name. - —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.192.118.130 (talk • contribs) 20:50, 1 May 2006 (UTC)

Terrorist Sympathies?
The Dipset article mentions Juelz rapping lyrics that appear to sypathize terrorism. Should this be mentioned? 70.16.161.202 21:56, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Juelz Santanas Age
''In 2002, Juelz Santana was 18 years old, then came February 18th, which makes Juelz turn 19 making songs with The Diplomats. The third neff to be signed to Cam's label under Roc A Fella. In 2003, he was 20 years old coming out with his own singles "Santana's Town" and "Down". So yes, he is born in 1983. He really is, how could he be older then Lloyd Banks? And how could he be 22 when his birthday passed? The homie neff is 23 years old. 1983 - 2006 (Juelz death, god forbid if your thinking about that) equals 23. Go to your caculator and stop changing his year of birth. My god.'' thank you, when he was in the hey ma video which was in the summer of 2002 they said he was 18, in december of 2003 he was in a magazine it said he was 19 so for all the dumb asses out there that means he was born in 1984 so please quite changeing his fucking year of birth damnit. Plus he also said it his damn self so heis born in 1984. - Thursday, September 15, 2007 6:34 PM

There's always been confusion regarding his age. Mainly because when "Hey Ma" came out he states in the song that he's 18. When people asked his age, either he or his people would say Juelz(the rapper) is 18... or 21, depending on when he was asked. He or his people would also say Juelz(the person/Laron) would like to keep his personal life/information private, etc. Which lead to confusion. On Smack DVD Vol.1, which came out in 2002(I believe), the interviewer asked him if he had a girlfriend or if he's looking for a girl. Juelz goes on to say candidly, (and I quote) "Right now, I am a bachelor... I'm a bachelor for life. I've been pimpin' since '82. Since I came out my mother's stomach." It's no secret that a lot of artists lie about their age. And also, people need to realize how long of a process putting together an album can be. Juelz could have wrote his verse in "Hey Ma" a year or two before Cam'ron's album was released, when he was in fact 18. Lapuravida 11:54, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

P.S. just because the album isn't platinum on RIAA doesn't mean it's not. there are several other sources than riaa —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ggggunot (talk • contribs) 16:48, April 14, 2007

JUELZ SANTANAS AGE .... *SIGHS* AGAIN
IN 2002, JUELZ SANTANA WAS 18 YEARS OLD, THEN CAME February 18, WHICH MAKES JUELZ TURN 19, MAKING SONGS WITH THE DIPLOMATS. THE THIRD NEFF TO BE SIGNED TO CAM'S LABEL UNDER ROC A FELLA. DON'T SAY DUH. LISTEN (READ I MEANT). THEN, IN 2003, HE WAS 20 WHEN "FROM ME TO U" CAME OUT IN STORES. HE WAS ALREADY 20. NOTHING IN THE 2003 ARTICLES SUCH AS XXL, SOURCE, EBONY OR SPIN IS MENTIONING JUELZ AS A 21 YEAR OLD, NOT IN 2003, THEY SAID HE WAS 20. BUT IF THATS NOT TRUE THEN HIS BIRTHDAY IS WRONG BUT ITS NOT. YALL NIGGAS NEED TO LISTEN. MATTER OF FACT. SOMEBODY HIT JUELZ SANTANA UP ON THE MYSPACE SO HE CAN CLEAR THINGS OUT LIKE HE'S GOD BRING UP THE SUNSHINE. BECAUSE THIS IS CRAZY. - 9:06 - Friday, September 29, 2006.

Terrorism Lyrics
Should make some mention that he compared himself to Mohammed Atta (Flight 11 hijacker pilot) in the song "OK" off of his "From Me to You" album that had to be censored by his label.The uncensored track appeared on various DJ promo CD's: "A young Mohammed Atta / no plane lessons / cocaine lessons..." the album version has Atta's name blanked out.

He did however respond to critics stating on the OK remix: "Your 7:30 I'm 9/11 / I was affected by 9/11." Trajedy 06 Oct 2006 bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

not the same
Juelz aint related to Merlin Santana, Merlin's mother said they werent related and juelz mother hated that show.They is not related just cuse he uses the name Juelz Santana doesn't mean that his real name is Juelz Santana it is Laron James damn yall mistake the obvious just look at his real name.

Possible Error?
The article states that The Second Coming reached 101 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts, and i was not sure if this was possible. Obviously my doubts are raised from the fact that the Billboard charts only rank 100 places, hence the name. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.90.227.22 (talk) 19:14, 16 March 2007 (UTC).

Juelz Santana is NOT of Dominican descent on either side.
I edited the page with a citation of his youtube interview with VLADTV. He explains that his godmother is Dominican but both of his parents are of African American descent. Juelz Explains his ethnicity in the video at the timestamp 3:56. Juelz Santana on Growing Up in Harlem in the 90s: Seeing the Drug Dealers Shaped Us (Part 1)
