Santana began writing rhymes at the age of 12. He was originally signed to Priority Records as one half a duo called Draft Pick. The group had several shows around New York City while together, including Amateur Night at the Apollo Theatre, where they won two weeks in a row. Some time after this, he was introduced to Cam'ron through a cousin; in 1998, he became a member of the group, The Diplomats, whose members include Cam'ron, Jim Jones, 40 Cal, J.R Writer, Hell Rell, Jha Jha, S.A.S, and Freekey Zeekey. He is now signed as a solo artist to Dipset but unlike the rest of The Diplomats, who are signed to Koch Records, Santana is currently signed to Def Jam.
He was voted #2 in the VIBE Vixen top 50 sexiest rappers behind T.I. at #1.
His first album, From Me To You was released by Roc-A-Fella Records in 2003 featuring the singles "Dipset (Santana's Town)" and "Down". It was considered a commerical failure when compared to the sucess of Cam'ron's Come Home With Me and The Diplomats' Diplomatic Immunity.
In his latest work, his second album, What The Game's Been Missing!, features the singles "There It Go! (The Whistle Song)", and "Oh Yes" as he continues his unique flow. He was featured in Chris Brown's #1 hit "Run It!" and in the remix of Mariah Carey's # 1 single "Don't Forget About Us". Santana also had the summer hit "Mic Check" which also is on "What The Game's Been Missing!"
Juelz is best known for his ability to flow without any specific rhyme scheme.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm back (Juelllllz, Santana)
I'm back (Juelllllz, Santana)
(Ya'll got a problem, his name's Santana, Santana)
I'm back, uh-oh
(No one to play around, we'll squeeze them hammers)
(Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana)
My .44 peace talking, sound o-so-sweet talking
Do more-more street talking, than Stone Cold Steve Austin
And I bang it well, slang it well, shave it well
Hell, you looking at the preview of "The Matrix 12"
El rock them, I'm here to shake the bells (Juelllllz...)
Shake the bells what's my name (Santana)
You got that gear right, I'm not that queer type
Nasty behind the wheel, but my mind ain't steered right
Fuck driving reckless, my mind is reckless
Plus I stay with two time crime offenders
I can't give it up (nope)
Like an old man who can't get it up, I'm not a man 'til it's up
So now I'm rapping bad, I'm back I'm badder
Shit, ya'll probably think I'm taking rap viagra
Got as many songs than Pac had on lock stash
I can pop songs just like I pop tags
I do not brag, just watch fag
I'm here to get the keys to the lock back
Open the door, close it and relock that
Don't touch, stop that, it's locked black
And guess what, I'm back (Juelllllz...)
I'm back (Santana)
(Y'all got a problem, his name's Santana, Santana)
I'm back, (Juelllllz, Santana) uh-oh
(No one to play around, we'll squeeze them hammers)
I'm back (Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana) uh-oh
Say hello to my little friend, hello 'fore I pull again (Juelllllz...)
And show you my bullets friend, hello my name please (Santana)
Straight bring the llama, for cake stand behind you
Make plans to drop you, I ain't Aunt Jamima, nope
Bitch, I ain't here to wine you, I ain't here to dine you, I cam here to pop you
Shit, and I came here for lobster (Juelllllz...)
The whole damn sha-bang and they ain't bring the pasta (Santana)
Now I got to be rude, they ain't got me my food
I'm not gone be used, shots gone eat through
This kid small body, and this big long shotty
That will just make shit here all sloppy
Straight out the pot I'm ready, straight out like rock I'm ready
Or more proper, I'm straight out like hot spaghetti
It's rock and roll time (time) it's lock and load time (Juelllllz...)
Show time, adios amigo, got to go time (Santana)
Yeah, but I be back right at you, twice back at you, like Christ back at you, yeah!
You be like damn, that's one nice ass rapper
I kind of like that rapper, I want to be like that rapper, no!
No, but if you bite that rapper,
I might bite back at you, with the right feel at you, whoo!
Yeah, I know that might sound bad, but it's
I'm back
(Ya'll got a problem, his name's Santana, Santana)
I'm back, (Juelllllz, Santana) uh-oh
(No one to play around, we'll squeeze them hammers)
I'm back (Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana, Santana) uh-oh
