Juicy J, a member of Academy Award-winning rap group Three 6 Mafia, has decided to take this whole twerking phenomenon to the next level.

In preparing to release his first solo album on a major label next week, a record titled Stay Trippy, the Memphis rapper/producer says he will pay $50,000 in the form of a scholarship to "the best chick who can twerk."

The tweet announcing the contest has since been deleted, and the rapper has offered no other details on the contest, prompting many to suspect that this is simply a publicity stunt for his upcoming album, which features a track titled "Scholarships". However, the rapper sent out this tweet earlier today, implying the contest is still on:

Stay Trippy will be released next Tuesday (Aug. 27). The release, his first on Wiz Khalifa's Taylor Gang imprint, features A$AP Rocky, Chris Brown, Justin Timberlake, Big Sean, Trina and more.
