IFWT_Birdman_Lil_Wayne_Lawsuit

This is becoming a sticky situation. Birdman sending Lil Wayne birthday shout outs and beyond means absolutely NOTHING when money is involved. In fact, the messages are fueling the fire of the NOLA rapper. Not only has Wayne made attempts at signing Cash Money signee Chanel West Cost, but he’s also adding Drake, Nicki Minaj – two YM artists that Lil Wayne believes will hit the bricks from Ca$h Money soon – and Tyga to his on-going lawsuit against the hip-hop label.

It seems as though Wayne is not the only Young Money member that Birdman has pulled the rug from under; financially. In his lawsuit, Wayne claims that he has letters from Drake and Tyga that they were jilted on some funds, while in a separate letter from Nicki’s team, her producers were not paid. Although Young Money is a son label to Ca$h Money, Wayne says that the bigger of the two is responsible for paying all producers – let’s not forget producer DVLP asking for his money.

According to TMZ, Young Money claims that they were supposed to get an advance around the tune of $100 million from Universal, however, the advance went to Ca$h Money, so they didn’t see one red penny.

Ca$h Money’s rebuttal on the accusations … LIES. They argue that Wayne was given a $20 million advance for Young Money in 2012; $12 million for Wayne’s solo album; and another $70 million in advances, royalties, marketing and recording costs for various Young Money artists.

Well, isn’t this just all over the place. I would really love to be a fly on the wall during these money meetings and court document drop-offs. Usually, in these type of cases, someone is lying. I just can’t wait to figure out WHO.
