Juvenile was previously hit with a warrant for abandonment of a dependent child in 2003, when a paternity test proved he fathered the child of a Gwinnet County, Georgia, woman.
Prior to his run-ins with the law, Juvenile explained that his children are his primary motivation to earn as much as possible. The rapper said: "You know I'm a family person. I got kids. They getting bigger and they ain't saying, 'Daddy I want a baby doll or a he-man' no more, them days over with for me."
Juvenile added: "I got to have 99 different ways to hustle outside of just the rap and outside of the shows, outside all of that. I got to have me some more bread runners, like businesses, maybe real estate, you know, stuff like that."
The rapper's new album, Reality Check, comes out March 7.
