"Back That Azz Up", also known as "Back That Thang Up" for a radio edit, is a song recorded by American rapper Juvenile featuring fellow American rappers Mannie Fresh and Lil Wayne. Produced by Fresh, it was released on June 11, 1999, as the second single from Juvenile's 1998 album 400 Degreez. The song was Juvenile's biggest hit single at the time until the chart-topping "Slow Motion" in 2004, surpassing "Back That Azz Up" which peaked at number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100. Both the song and its music video were omnipresent in media venues for much of 1999 and early 2000.[2] "Back That Azz Up", Lil Wayne's "Tha Block Is Hot", and B.G.'s "Bling Bling" were the three hits that launched Cash Money into the pop mainstream. The song played a pivotal role in introducing bounce music—a distinctive New Orleans style of hip-hop characterized by rapid beats and call-and-response vocals—into mainstream culture, thereby solidifying the South as an epicenter of hip-hop. It has achieved lasting cultural significance, frequently sampled by artists like Drake and Beyoncé, and remains popular at cultural events and celebrations
