Birdman Calls Lil Wayne’s New Deal With Cash Money Records: “The Biggest In Urban Music”

Fri, May 4, 2012 by Danny M

After shooting his parts for his cameo in the “Take It To The Head” music video in L.A., Birdman spoke with Sway from MTV about Lil Wayne signing a new four-album deal with Cash Money Records and what Tunechi is to YMCMB. Baby says that the type of deal they agreed on has never been done in urban music before and it is probably the biggest deal ever in urban music! Even though the #1 Stunna wouldn’t confirm the exact figures in the new contract, rumors have circulated online that it was for around $150 million :o

“YMCMB start and stop with Wayne; it ain’t no YMCMB without Wayne. The type of situation we did never been done in urban music; it’s probably the biggest deal ever in urban music. I’m blessed to even do that – whatever my son want, he can get. It’s all his anyway, so it don’t really matter to me. That’s one of our goals, and the move we just made was a big move to that, to make sure the pioneer of it, which is Wayne.”

After the jump, you can watch some more footage of 2 Chainz and Weezy performing at King Of Diamonds in Miami last week. They both performed “Duffle Bag Boy” and then Tune rocks out to Tity Boi performing his own records such as “Spend It“.

    @throw it back
    Yeah I thought excactly the same thing like about a week ago, damn, the first thing he did when he got out of rikers wuz lightin a cigar

  18. On May 5, 2012 at 12:16 am ... responded with...

    @throw it back so? its just puffing on tobacco.

    stop acting like such kids. wayne doesnt suck now because hes not on a certain drug or whatever, he fell off because he is PAST HIS PRIME.

    rappers are a lot like sports players. kobe bryant in his 16th season isnt as good as kobe bryant in his 7th season. its just logic…

    he’s past his prime. he’s been rapping for a long time. its safe to say his best years are behind him.

    so you all might as well stop saying “start doing drugs” thats not going to change shit trust me.

    waynes music started getting worse when he was on the syrup real tough back in late 08-early 09. he started that singing autotune bullshit and it sounded awful.
    thats when he lost a LOT OF FANS.

    its not the drugs, its wayne. he just doesnt have it anymore. give him credit tho no rapper has been hot as long as he has. even tho hes not lyrically as good as he used to be, hes still one of the hottest in the game,

    i just cant believe so many people want a human being to do DRUGS…

    thats insane if you ask me. watch the old videos where wayne was really high on weed,syrup and pills.. he looked terrible. he was not in the right state of mind..everything he said made no sense.

    remember this man HAS KIDS. i would never encourage a parent to be on drugs when he has bigger responsibilities than music, like his children.

    but like i said, drugs wouldnt even change shit. wayne is past his best years.

    Do yall even realize how harsh cigars are on the stomach and lungs? its not like weed, its not even like cigs. Its easy for yall to sit there behind your computers and judge but no motherfucker is just going to smoke cigars steady, everyday at age 29. You just dont understand. Things suit certain situation and certain people and wayne would of never transitioned into an avid fucking “cigar smoker”

    use some common sense.

  25. On May 5, 2012 at 3:12 am Kay B responded with...

    @MJ. Forbes apparently gt B32′s(Birdmans) networth, bt ahh his probably worth $750 000. Yeah. Nd even if he ws under 150 mill, its nt him payin Wayne 4rm his money, its Cash Money Records tht pays Wayne nd Cash Money is worth MILLIONS or dollars. And am glad 2 c Weezy doin his thng goin hard. He sys wat he wnts, nd he wnts ntn, coz he has errthng

  31. On May 5, 2012 at 7:59 am Mrs_Cortez_Bryant responded with...

    Birdman & 750 million in the same sentence. HA! I couldn’t help but to literally LMAO! Birdman isn’t worth more than Jay-Z. I love & respect Birdman’s hustle but 750 mil?! Last year Forbes said his net worth was around 100-150mill. I do believe though that one day he’ll be up there though. Esp. with all the artists he’s getting paid off of.

  32. On May 5, 2012 at 8:03 am Mrs_Cortez_Bryant responded with...

    So if the rumors are true that the deal was worth 150 million I wonder how much Cortez Bryant got outta that? If Wayne pays him 10 percent then Cortez would get 15 million out of that 150.

  33. On May 5, 2012 at 9:41 am Kay B responded with...

    Birdman is Rich, tha nigga is way richer thn Jay Z, he even once syd in an interview tht he has more money thn Jay! Jay Z is nt tht rich, most of tha money his worth is 4rm his business ventures. Birdman is WAY Richer thn him. He wudnt b #1 stunna wth 100-150 mill. Lol nah, nevah

  36. On May 5, 2012 at 3:21 pm the infamous CEEJ responded with...

    unlike the birdman who is constantly looking for a sucker to sign there life to “ymcmb” for a quick dollar JZ invests his money in real corporate bodies and doesnt just have big bags of 20 dollar bills stached in his whip or slung around his neck like tha birdman.
    jz is definitely worth much more than birdman but i think with all the cds released by there label ymcmb is on the rise for the time being.
    hopefully they get sent back to jail or something cuz im sick of the phony rap shit

    You are really comparing birdmans money to Jay-Z’s money….are you serious??? I swear you all act like you know what ur talkin bout but u sound so dumb. Lil Wayne even admitted in the MTV interview talkin bout the JayZ diss that Jayz got more money….and JayZ said in a interview that we can compare bank statements. And Jayz is a partial owner of the New Jersey Nets…gtfoh sayin wayne and birdman over Jayz you sound fuckin dumb

  40. On May 5, 2012 at 10:03 pm siege responded with...

    jz probably has a whole digit higher than all of ymcmb he owns the damn nets

  41. On May 5, 2012 at 10:20 pm sucker is a sucker responded with...

    He own less than 2% of the nets. Stop acting like he’s majority owner.

  42. On May 5, 2012 at 10:32 pm Kay B responded with...
