Cash Money Records recently acquired not one but two new artists to their roster…Busta Rhymes and Mysitkal. Busta made a bit more sense as the rapper has had numerous collabs with the YMCMB team over the past few years, but Mystikal definitely seemed out of left field! We heard what Bus had to say on his deal, now hear Mystikal’s words to Vibe Magazine below.
“It was actually materializing for a while now,†Mystikal tells VIBE, adding that, “the conversation started when I was going through my incarceration. And those conversations continued once I came home. The right things happened and the right kind of deal was made. What I got from Wayne was don’t be to astounded by what you are seeing because this is nothing. Let’s go make history. That’s a young dude telling me that. Coming from him and given the big things he’s doing right now, that was right on for me.â€
“Even Ray Charles could see what was happening over at Cash Money [laughs]. The minute I went over there and stepped my foot in the studio I knew it was real. I never thought I would go from No Limit to Cash Money. It was like God was leading me. Imagine what I can do over here.â€
