Turk made it clear in October that there is some friction between him and his former Cash Money mates Lil Wayne, Mannie Fresh and Baby. Citing their lack of compassion and support following the death of his father, the former Hot Boy blasted his old crew in a video that was widely circulated online. In a recent interview with UGS Radio, Turk was asked about the status of a Hot Boys reunion and his current feelings towards everyone he called out in the video.
“A lot of people’s hopes are up high about a Hot Boy reunion. About this, about that, a lot of people have been misguided,” Turk said, before adding that there is no ill will between him and his former labelmates. “I want everybody to know that it ain’t no beef. I still got love for them brothers. I’m just moving forward without them. I’m doing me now — It’s no longer a Hot Boy reunion. Not in my eyesight. That ain’t gonna even happen.”
Fans have been speculating about a Hot Boys reunion for years. Lil Wayne has made show appearances with Juvenile over the last two years, and when Turk was released from prison in 2012, fans began wondering if something would materialize. But, as of right now, it doesn’t seem likely.
Not that Turk is angry about anything.
“I want to get your attention now. Enough is enough. It wasn’t no diss. It wasn’t no beef. It was letting them see me on tape,” he explained. “I know they on the road, I know they doing their own thing. But its been a week. I haven’t gotten a phone call. I was just reaching out in the best way and the only way I knew how at that time. I still haven’t had a phone call. I still haven’t gotten a response. I wasn’t asking them to send them no money or anything. A lot of people in the media they took it the wrong way and worded it and titled it the wrong way.”
“When I sent it out, it was a message to my Cash Money brothers of love and peace,” Turk continued. “They flipped the words and said what they said. If you listen to the video, you basically hear me saying you keep doing y’all thing I’m going to keep doing my thing. Y’all say y’all mess with me I expect y’all to be there. Whether y’all call and said, ‘I send my condolences. Keep ya head up.’ Mack Maine, he texted me. He told me, ‘Keep ya head up.’ Juvenile, he texted me. He told me, ‘Keep ya head up.’ Lil Chuckee he tweeted out and he’ll come perform. A few people [reached out]–Trinidad Jame$, Paul Wall, Stalley. C-Murder sent flowers from jail. A lot of people in the industry was reaching out and my fans who was there and my family who been there.”
