This week, New Orleans, Louisiana Hip Hop veteran Mystikal signed a contract to Cash Money Records. The move was controversial to some, as Mystikal was a former star of Cash Money’s onetime local rival, No Limit Records. Additionally, the boisterous rapper had been working with former Cash Money star producer and artist Mannie Fresh prior to the signing.
While rumors have swirled that Mannie’s longtime seemingly severed ties with Cash Money would prevent the camps from working together, Fresh’s spokesperson contacted HipHopDX this morning to confirm the pair wil
l continue to work together.
In October, Mannie Fresh admitted to DX that recording sessions with Mystikal were stalled temporarily, but that a project was definitely releasing, “He’s a super talented dude, but you can’t get him to stand still for nothing. So it’s kind of been a hard process with me and Mystikal. But I know it’s gonna happen. And I know he gotta feed his family so he kind of all over the place doing shows. But, you know … it’s gonna happen, that’s all I can tell you.”
Fresh and Cash Money parted ways in the mid-’00s after royalty disputes over albums from Lil Wayne, Juvenile, Big Tymers and The Hot Boys. Mannie Fresh was signed to Cash Money for over a decade.
Yesterday, Mystikal released his first Cash Money-era music with label co-founder Birdman and Lil Wayne, “Original”

Well hopefully Birdman’s shady ass actually lets Mannie get a bunch of beats on the album and doesn’t interfere but knowing them it won’t happen.

HELL NO THEY SIGNED MYSTICAL ON YOUNG MONEY…PSHHHHHH HE SUCK MAN HE DONT BELONG ON YOUNG MONEY.
fuck young money.a bunch of benched rappers sleeping in bunk beds.2 niggas made it but you have a roster full of faggots.go buy a Chucky mixtape.
Great look 4 him
Niggas will never learn he gon get raped once again smh
man they need to find beats by the pound or whatever his name is now he need that unpredictable sound imo
I agree find find KLC and the rest of them cats
As soon as he got out of prison he was in the studio with KLC and KLC saved all of his best beats for him, but Mystikal wanted a club hit…and like Mannie said, no one can get him to stand still!
It’s a damn shame Mystikal passed up on all KL’s beats. Did yall know KL made the “Move Bitch” beat for Mystikal first, but he didn’t want it!? Crazy
Well I understand the signing because he’s from new orlens like wayne, plus since they nearly all southern rappers and keepin’ 808 why not, (despite the money stuff)?
Birdman need to stop hating all that damn money nigga and you wont allow mannie to put out music that he made with Lil wayne and other artists?
