2 Chainz Responds To Ludacris’ Comments About Profiting From Him

    Earlier this month, Ludacris revealed during an interview that he receives a percentage of the profits from 2 Chainz’s solo projects, adding that he still collaborated with Chainz and that he was proud of him.

    While 2 Chainz didn’t take offense to the statements, it appears that some around him did.

    “I mean it didn’t bother me, but I think it bothered people around me,” said 2 Chainz in an interview with Power 105.1’s Breakfast Club.

    2 Chainz admitted that he had to pay money to leave Ludacris’ Disturbing Tha Peace label, where he record as Tity Boi from 2002-2010. “For the most part, people probably want me to say or do something negative, so I don’t. Truth of the matter is, I been wanting to leave the label, when I left, I guess they knew or had some type of vision that I wasn’t gonna stop there, because I was turnt up when I left and I told them, so yeah I had to pay to leave.:

    2 Chainz said the deal will work in his favor. “I don’t even know who else is on the roster of DTP, but the amount of money that I paid them is not gonna balance out my trajectory.”

    2 Chainz then specified that he paid $100,000 to get off the label, and that, ultimately, his experience on DTP was a learning experience. “I learned a lot from the previous situation I was in. It is what it is. I learned it a long time ago when dealing with that situation that there’s really no such thing as loyalty out here.”

    In the end, Chainz holds no ill will towards Luda. “For me, I don’t have anything negative to say. …Actually, [Ludacris] was the first person to give me a bank account. I didn’t even have a bank account. I just had shoeboxes of money.”

    During his time on DTP, Chainz released two albums as a member of Playaz Circle, 2007’s Supply & Demand and 2009’s Flight 360: The Takeoff.

    1. nicca is lying luda got more than 100k split 3 ways. this nicca is a pathological liar from his age down to the robbery he said didnt happen

      news flash nigga, if someone stands over you with a gun and takes your shit that aint pick pocketing thats a robbery and you got go, charge it to the game and move on, no excuses or cop outs

      1. He’s lying? About 100 G’s? How in the world was 2 Chainz considered to be worth that much back then? He wasn’t. And if it was more, who paid it? Yall so quick to call someone a liar that you don’t add it up yourselves.

    2. “i didnt have a bank account, i just had shoeboxes of money”

      is he trying to imply that he went to college for four years and graduated with a 4.0 GPA with no bank account ever until he was 25 years old? he was paying his tuition and bills straight out the shoe box? stop lying!!!! we dont believe you!!!

      1. maybe not, but i know when i got student loans i damn sure had to have a bank account for them to transfer the money into, maybe he was such a big dope dealer he left the streets and put himself through college with his shoeboxes full of cash though??? YEAH RIGHT

      2. apparently he had an athletic scholarship when he went to Alabama university (we all seen him runnin from those robbers so thats believable) but i still dont believe that no bank account shit. i had a bank account since i was like 2

      1. They’re the same age (35), except Luda has a 1-day advantage. So Luda technically is older than 2 Chainz.

    3. What kind of moron gets on a plane with Marijuana and Promethazine in his luggage? Oh I know one thats trying to draw attention away from getting robbed like a bitch!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. I didn’t know there was a real way to get robbed,i guess niggaz rob ur bitch ass all the time cuz u know the procedure

      2. he ran, tripped, still got robbed, denied anything happened, then when they posted the video and his photos of his shit he said he got pick pocketed not robbed. he got robbed like a bitch

    4. Sorry homie but when you get caught lying Officer Ricky style you cant call your album Based on a True Story anymore

    5. Guci Mane realest rapper outthere:

      – this nigga throws bitches out his car
      – shoot niggas dead
      – beat niggas up.

      Gucci aint no fantasy nigga like:

      – mobb deep,
      – nas escobar lol nigga only had a ticket for parking his car wrong
      – 2pac never gangbanged

    8. Guci Mane realest rapper outthere:

      – this nigga throws bitches out his car

      Gucci aint no fantasy nigga like:

      – mobb deep never sold drugs;
      – nas escobar lol nigga only had a ticket for parking his car wrong
      – 2pac never commited a crime before he became a rapper.
      – Game talks on his records about the life of his brother. His brother said that Game is no gangsta. Thats the reason of the beef between them;
      – Ice-T never was a O.G. or Copkiller but in fact he is a TV Cop;
      – Ice Cube was never a gangbanger but was bullied as a kid.
      – Eminem’s image is fake and created by Interscope to sell records. Before 1997 Eminem didnt had white hair or was talking about that he was a whitetrash rapper.
      – Young Jeezy never was BMF;
      – Lil Wayne never was a blood although he was abused by Birdman as a child.

      3. Fuck HIPHOPDX those playahaters keep deleted my posts but GUCCI IS STILL THE REALEST EVER

      4. you post the same shit on every article and its irrelevant to these articles. no one cares how real gucci is. he is a terrible rapper with an ice cream cone tatted on his face.

    10. I knew that 2chainz would respond to that fuck shit cause the world didn’t need to know that,these rappers are pussy niggas man for real.not 2chainz but ludabitch

    11. While 2 Chainz makes some the dumbest music you will ever hear, he always sounds somewhat intelligent during his interviews. Even though he tries to hide it that 3.9 gpa sneaks out.

    12. i thought this man went to college why does he talk like a grade 3 student?

      really 2 chainz, the “dispensinary”?????? LMAO these rappers so are dumb its sad

      1. he is a product of his environment. you dont hear people in the hood talking like people do up in Harvard. Let him be. homie is paid but you speak better than him

      2. you dont gotta go to harvard to know how to read or say dispensary though, where the fuck he get dispensinary from? it probably says that shit right outside the fucking shop

      3. i guess its no worse than ross and them not being able to pronounce the names of their luxury cars, nigga cant even say maybach right and he named his label after it

        heard that nicca say porsche panorama in a song too

    13. luda is definely making more than 33.33k off titty bois ass, he trying to downlplay that shit like hes a boss

    14. Gucci Mane = realest rapper ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      – T.I. snitch to the feds

      – Nas Escobar never sold drugs
      – Ice Cube never was a gangbanger
      – Dr Dre never was a gangbanger
      – 2pac was a ballerina and never sold drugs after he become famous he was doing some stupid stuff like beating and shooting at people because he though he could get away with it. Without Suge Knight 2pac was just a skinny motherfucker. Oh and i like his music so fuck you.
      – Mobb deep are the biggiest pussies

      1. nicca tatted an ice cream cone on his face, that takes away any cred he ever had.

        not to mention testifying against jeezy in court

    15. “not as fast as cole or kendrick with twice the hits”

      Kendrick only wishes he could have released a song as timeless as Extremely Blessed.

    16. this man is too stupid to get a bank account lol he just keep all his money sitting in a box under his bed

      I know he said it to seem street but it just makes a grown man look stupid.

      1. yeah just imagine how many times he got robbed like a hoe BEFORE he was famous and had a useless entourage around him.

      2. Your ninja are hating. I know alot of 20 and 21 yr old who dont have a bank account. Not because they dont know about accounts but who puts dirty money in the bank. Dumb move.

      3. he didnt say it to sound “street” u dumbass , he said it to acknowledge how luda helped him grow as a man ,as grown men have bnk accounts not shoeboxes full of money. and its really a shame how none ofthe people who replied to ur stupidass comment said what i just said smh…

      1. dumb ass nigga, this nigga making movies worth billions of dollars (Fast n Furious), gets royalties everytime they play his songs on the radio and in the club, and best believe he has endorsements up the ass. He’s straight.

      2. Maybe you don’t read so good but he said music not movies or endorsements. Now who the dumb ass nigga? Keep rapper dicks out your mouth boy.

      3. or can it? he worth about 75 million dollar. he even has his own private jet that he owns! no chainz on the other hand is worth like 2 million
