You can call Juicy J a lot of things, but liar shouldn’t be in your list of adjectives. The Taylor Gang entertainer recently made good on his promise to deliver a $50,000 scholarship to one lucky student who knew how to back that a** up. However, for those who read in between the fine print, getting buck for WSHH wasn’t one of the mandatory requirements. The “Bandz A Make Her Dance” rapper just said that to get your attention.

Today, January 13, it was revealed that Zaire Holmes is the lucky recipient of the Juicy J Scholarship Foundation’s act of generosity. The single mother and full-time student has big aspirations to become a doctor at the University of South Florida after receiving her bachelor’s of science in biology. After she was named a finalist in the competition, Juicy J surprised her on camera with a life-sized check for the scholarship payment.

Through tears, she managed to squeak out a “thank you” to her Hip-Hop beneficiary.

The rapper born Jordan Houston also shared his humble beginnings with Holmes saying, “I come from six people living in a two-bedroom apartment hustling,” he said in a deep, reflective tone. His latest album, Stay Trippy even detailed his plans to make the dream a reality on the song “Scholarship” with a bridge that goes, “Say you need some extra cash to pay for college with/And it just so happens I got a lot of it.”

This time, it was without the NC-17 content. As for the respectable ratchets who twerked for the tuition, it’s time to pick up a book.

Check out the video below of Juiceman Proper giving young Zaire her cosmetic check as the actual money was paid directly to the State College of Florida. Hit the flip for another clip which features her audition tape.
