The regionally-focused sound found on Juvenile’s new LP was supplied by the in-house beatmakers from his Beats & Hooks Production Company (which houses trackmasters S8ighty, Precise and C. Smith). The firm founded by Kango Slim of veteran New Orleans duo Partners-N-Crime (B&H’s creator is also the crew’s in-house hook writer) sell their sonic and scribe services to various artists, having recently crafted both beat and hook for C-Ride and T-Pain’s “Money Round Here,” and maybe most notably of late contributed the hook to Lil Boosie’s “Better Believe It.”
In addition to contributions from Beats & Hooks, Juve himself produced two songs for Cocky & Confident.
Mannie Fresh crafted 10 tracks for the disc, two of which made the tentative tracklisting. But Juve warned, “We ain’t too sure if those two gon’ make it ‘cause we steady doing other songs right now.”
Cocky & Confident is led by two singles in the bass-heavy grindin’ anthem “Gotta Get It” and the radio-ready nod to the ladies “Hands On You” featuring Pleasure P, which follow the previous leaking earlier this year of album cuts “My Money Don’t Fold.”
