Cash Money Records’ Cash Money Content (CMC) division has launched the #IRead #WeRead campaign in order to encourage reading in the African American community, according to a press release.
“Reading is an important step in the right direction toward making a difference in our community,” says Ronald “Slim” Williams, co-founder of Cash Money Records and Cash Money Content. “Let’s encourage our communities to read.”
CMC says its goal is to encourage African Americans of all ages to share books, article links and blog posts with the hashtags #IRead and #WeRead.
“This effort is to not only open the dialogue about books and share interesting literary findings,” the press release says, “but also to inspire families and the African American community as a whole to pick up books, follow links and read.”
In the video below, CMC’s Birdman introduced in 2011 his then-new venture.
this is good
Baby: Hope ya’ll finna read our books, ya dig? does *Birdman hand rub*
……..HA!!!! THESE NIGGAS DON’T EVEN SOUND LIKE THEY READ WHEN YOU HEAR THEM TALK!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
if you have the resources and time then you dont got to be literate to help other people who are illiterate. stop sniveling you snickering clown.
ain’t nobody got time fo dat
So your troll ass has returned huh? Ya momma must got the internet back on at y’all house? lol!!!
this is ironic because over 60% of the artists on this label are illiterate dropouts
so they know what the hardships are. they know they barely made it out and they know their shortcomings every day in the non-hood world they have been rocketed into. they know people who didnt make it like them. a crippled philanthropist will donate to disabled causes. you won’t call that ironic now would you? keep making jokes clown
if they really cared they would go get their GEDS or high school diplomas like Drake did to set a great example for the kids.
Bird Daddy has never read a book in his life, beeleee dat pleighboi

Believe it or not, they are actually very literate. None of the aritsts are rreally that illeterate. They just use hood slang for songs. There was one time when Wayne came into our elementary school and taught us grammer and how to speak properly. I even saw birdman teaching kids math.
learn to spell
Im typing on mobile. Wayne is very literate.
Nobody believes all of those lies.
This is excellent and finally something positive from YMCMB.
