Birdman has addressed Gillie Da Kid’s claims about uncredited contributions to music by Lil Wayne, who is often praised for his pen game.
On Sunday (October 8), Wack 100 convinced the Cash Money boss to hop on Clubhouse for a brief chat, during which the latter spoke about his contentious relationship with the podcaster and the rumors he started about writing for Weezy.
“I never put a record out with Gillie,” he said. “I ain’t never made a dollar off Gillie when he be runnin’ around with all that cappin, like, n-gga, I ain’t never made no money off you, n-gga. Stop all that cap-ass talkin’, n-gga. You not like that.”
Setting the record straight, Stunna also added: “And he for sure ain’t never wrote one rhyme for Moolah.”
Gillie responded to Birdman in the comments section of an Akademiks reshare of the clip, writing: “25 yrs later [eight laughing emojis].”
A year ago, Turk shut down Gillie’s claims about assisting Lil Wayne in the mid-2000s while the two were signed to Cash Money Records.
The Hot Boys rapper appeared on Drink Champs last fall to make it clear that the Million Dollaz Worth of Game co-host never penned any tracks for the Young Money mogul while they were labelmates.
“You talking ’bout my lil bro, you wrote for him. You ain’t write for no Lil Wayne, n-gga,” Turk said, directly addressing the camera. “You ain’t write for Lil Wayne and I stand on that. Shawty been doing this shit. You a clout chaser. Now talk about that!”
In the past, Gillie has claimed he ghostwrote multiple records that eventually landed on Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter in 2004.
“I penned a lot of that shit, they had me around there,” Gillie told HipHopDX in 2006. “Stunna gave me $200,000 when I signed. They was so in a rush to get a n-gga into a deal they didn’t do the publishing right there on the spot, they just wanted to get me ink. Soon as they got me ink then they wanted to discuss the publishing.
“Once they didn’t want to give me the money I was asking for, then I knew it was a problem. I had talks and sit-downs with Wayne he didn’t even know what publishing was and shit, so I start seeing what was really going on around here.”
The feud began after Gillie left the imprint and declared that he is a better rapper than Tunechi, following which they went back-and-forth on a series of diss tracks.
In one such drop called “Problem Solver,” Wayne raps: “Gillie man, I don’t think you n-ggas should really fuck with me/ The gun off me urgently workin’ and twerkin’ it perfectly.”
Any time a rapper get big all these dudes thirsty to claim they did more than they really did. Gillie probably saw the recordings and made some suggestions but that ain’t writing or performing
Hell, he’s even said what he actually did, which wasn’t writing for Wayne, and it made him look lamer because he was saying a literal kid coming into manhood started dressing more like him, something a lot of younger men will do with older people they look up to. You just have a lot of East Coast dudes who couldn’t come to grips with that the little kid who used to say Wobble, Wobble was nice on the mike when he grew up. That’s what it basically boiled down to. Let one of those child rappers like Shyhiem or Jamal or some shit have blown up like Wayne, and they wouldn’t have blinked an eye.
Silent Partner, why people always bringing up that Wobble Wobble shit? lol That’s bananas. So him doing the outro on Back That Azz Up is supposed to somehow represent Lil’ Wayne’s rapping ability back then? I’m not even a Wayne fan. I always say I liked THAT Wayne better because they rapped on topic and had actual subject matter. I’m not a big fan of punch lines on top of punch lines just for the sake of it with no subject. But that’s funny people always bring up Wobbedy Wobbedy drop it like it’s hot like that was Wayne actually attempting to rap SMH He was rapping his ass off back then and had classic verses.
I know. That’s the extent of what a bunch of East Coasters heard though was the radio hits because they wouldn’t actually listen to down South music. Wayne always could rap. He just was a little kid. So that’s the first thing out of their mouth is how did he go from Wobble Wobble to spitting better than their favorite rappers when if they listened and especially checked out him from 500 Degreez to Carter I coming out, you saw how much of a beast he was becoming over time. It was easier for them to rationalize it with that a mediocre rapper from up north, Gilie, or even the other one is Cam’Ron and Dip Set had improved him instead of it being what it was, just him getting better and better and maturing.
Up North Rappers taught the world how to rap hater. Nobody down south can out rap anyone from up North. Only 3 I’m giving it to is UGK, Outkast, Killer Mike. And don’t come to Philadelphia. Gillie old Rap tracks???? His whole Major Figure crew was dope. Our whole State Property is etched in Rap Battle history. Made Jay z way nice on tracks. Since Vol2 and 3. THE ROOTS??? BLACKTHOUGHT??? Cassidy??? BEANIE?? FREEWAYYY?? YOUNG GUNZZZ???? PEEDI CRACKKK?? JOEY JIHAD??? MEEK??? REED DOLLARS? PNB ROCK?? UZI??? FRIDAYY??? TIERRA WHACK?????HEAD SHOT DVDS????? WILL SMITH JAZZY JEFF ???? Yall need to stop Gillie will flame Wayne til this day

Im never siding with Birdman on some he said she said. Birdman always acting fake tough and not paying his bills. Miss me with that it must be true because Birdman said so shii.

No seriously though… I would let Birdman eat bird feed out my butthole while I slap Drake balls while Nick Minaj is pointing her hairy butthole in my face while she’s farting
bun b surely did though
If you listen to Gillie on the old DVDs we had in Philly back in the day you can clearly hear “Lil Wayne The Carter” rap style. I don’t know what Gillie did but he influenced and made Wayne a better rapper. The same way Young Chris influenced Jay Z.
You know your music career is a failure once you start acting and doing podcasts.
Yo Birdman calling you over so he can kiss you in the mouf
You never made dollar off him, so why was he there? That’s bad business 😏
But wait…isn’t Gillie on some Big Tymers albums around that time heavy? Big Money Heavyweights. But Birdman never did anything with him?
