Around the 1:45 mark of the clip below, Steve revealed how he first got started to become Juelz‘s recording engineer, which was back in 2005, and one of the first projects he worked on was I Can’t Feel My Face. He even recalled recording Lil Wayne in his brother’s closet in New Jersey.

The former Dipset engineer also spoke about why Juelz Santana and Wayne decided they wanted to release ICFMF as an album instead of a mixtape (money involved), as well as mentioned it was Santana‘s artist from Philadelphia, Jay Bezel, who leaked the project online by leaving a copy of the CD in a car!

Chubbie Baby recently chopped it up with DGB for an “Off The Porch” interview, which you can check out below.

During their conversation, Chubbie spoke on having production on the unreleased Lil Wayne and Juelz Santana collaboration album, I Can’t Feel My Face, including the “Bad Side” song. He also shared the story of how “Leanin’ Low” with himself, Wayne and Juelz came about.

The CEO of AweSomLife Entertainment then explained how he ended up getting a Tunechi feature on Keri Hilson‘s “Turnin’ Me On” single for producer Polow Da Don straight away. Chubbie mentioned that instead of receiving money from Polow, he instead asked for a job at Zone 4 and got it. While working at the Zone 4 record label, he was the reason behind Tune jumping on Ester Dean‘s “Drop It Low” remix!

In a brand new interview with Mikey T The Movie Star from Report Card Radio, Dipset’s very own Un Kasa revealed Juelz Santana and Lil Wayne have a whole new joint album together that they plan to release.

At the 4:45 mark of their conversation, Un Kasa shared stories of witnessing the recording process for the original I Can’t Feel My Face project by saying Juelz and Wayne recorded a few collaborations together in the studio, but the majority of it was sent back and forth via e-mail.

The Diplomats associate goes on to recall how Santana would e-mail a song to Tunechi and then 30 minutes later, Tune would e-mail him back with the verse done. Un Kasa also spoke on how Weezy recorded 2 songs for Skull Gang (Juelz’s hip-hop group) on the day that he found out he went Platinum in the first week with Tha Carter III that are still unreleased to this day.

You can check out the interview in a video after the jump below. Even though Un Kasa reveals the OG version of ICFMF never dropped because neither Juelz Santana or Lil Wayne could figure out the business side of it, are you looking forward to hearing the new version of their long-awaited collab album?

However, Jim Jones goes on to say that he “wanted to fuck Weezy up” after Wayne went and rapped a similar hook on Fat Joe‘s “Make It Rain” single.
