‘Back That Azz Up’ rapper Juvenile books NPR set: ‘One of a kind show’

Call him Big Daddy.

Juvenile says he will perform his own NPR Tiny Desk Concert — now that he knows what it is.

A fan-led Twitter campaign to get the 48-year-old “Back That Azz Up” rapper to take part in the famed concert series started last week when a supporter tweeted at NPR to “please” have him on.

A confused Juvenile quote-tweeted the plea on Tuesday, writing, “Wtf is a tiny desk and no” before adding laughing face emojis.

Fans took to the platform to educate the “Slow Motion” artist about the popular show, which has featured everyone from Harry Styles to Sting and Shaggy performing at “All Songs Considered” host Bob Boilen’s desk in Washington, DC.

Juvenile jumped back online early Wednesday morning, challenging Twitter users to retweet him 10,000 times. If they did, he claimed he’d “RECONSIDER doing @NPR Tiny Desk” while drinking an “ice cold” Juvie Juice.

The beverage — his recent partnership with Urban South Brewery — is an adult version of a half lemonade and half iced tea drink, traditionally known as an Arnold Palmer.

Fans accepted the challenge, retweeting the rapper’s message over 11,000 times as of Wednesday night.

Juvenile is seemingly holding up his end of the bargain, too.

“The People Have Spoken!!!! 10k!! and @NPR locked it in,” he claimed Wednesday afternoon, though he did not provide concert details.

“I appreciate the luv and I’m gonna put on a one of a kind show for y’all on #TinyDesk,” he added.

The Post has contacted reps for Juvenile and NPR Music for comment.

Juvenile’s most recent album was 2019’s “Just Another Gangsta” — a joint venture with fellow rapper Birdman, 54. Juvenile is scheduled to perform several shows around the country in the coming months.
