Power 105.1’s Angie Martinez‘s exclusive interview with Birdman aired today (July 28).
The radio personality spent 48 hours with the Cash Money CEO at his Miami Beach mansion and yacht discussing allegations of Birdman’s involvement in the shooting of Lil Wayne’s tour bus to which he says, “ain’t that bad.”
“We been in this game for some time,” Birdman says. “But Hip Hop get gangsta sometime. You got to prepare for it when it come to you. If it come to you or come around you. This shit really gets violent sometimes. It’s Hip Hop. We chose this life. We in this shit and we got to be ready for it.”
Birdman along with Young Thug have been accused of conspiring to kill Weezy on his tour bus in April and have yet to be charged.
“That’s like the craziest shit that I’ve ever heard in my life,” Baby says. “I’m passionate about my family, my kids, that mean more to me than anything. I was born without parents at a boardinghouse. My children mean the world to me. You crazy if you think that. I ain’t trippin, you trippin, ya’ll trippin. You know how I am about Wayne. Ya’ll know the love I show him. I made him. I love him. That’s my son. I ain’t with none of that. I don’t play no games.”
Baby, maintaining his innocence, says that he and the Young Money CEO have talked several times before and after the incident occurred.
“I don’t know what they saying and what the reality is to that but if something happened to my son…I need to find out what’s poppin’ if you’re going to shoot a gun at my child,” says the Rich Gang rapper. “I got a problem with that. If you gonna bust a gun at Lil Wayne I got a problem with that. I don’t care who it is. We got a problem. Time will tell it all.”

Buster ass nigga,,wanye got you.
FIRST OFF WAYNE FROM VL 13, NOT THE CALLIOPE AND HE SPEAKING REAL. IF U KNOW HOW REAL NIGGAS MOVE U WOULD KNOW HE AINT LYING ABOUT THE ALLEGATIONS. MEDIA TAKE SHIT AND RUN WITH IT. THEY FAMILY AND AT THE END OF THE DAY THEY ALL UNDRR CONTRACT SO DRAKE,NIKKI, AND WAYNE NEED TO PIPEDOWN.
@100bands. But Nicky and drake are under contract with Wayne. And last time I checked. Wayne not under contract with Bird no more. There’s a reason he tried that rich gang shit
This is dumb. It doesn’t need to be gangster. You never heard about Andre 3000 in a shootout or this foolishness, and he’s one of the best. Kendrick and J. Cole seem to be largely staying out of trouble. Eminem seems ok. Common hasn’t been out here ducking strays, and he’s been in real beef (like with Ice Cube). Nas and Jay, Jay and Dame–those beefs were epic but never came to gunshots. When ATCQ, Little Brother, and a gazillion other groups broke up, it didn’t mean shots broke out. It doesn’t need to get gangsta unless you invite it nine times out of ten. These cats should just be getting paid and having a good time making music they love, period.
that ain’t dumb…he never said hip hop needs to be gangster, he said that it can get gangster..and that’s not a dumb statement, it’s a real statement..most artist music and personality reflect they background and they upbringing that’s why common is the way he is and andre, Kendrick jcole…but what separates Bird from them.is that he’s from the third ward calliope projects…and if you don’t understand the mentality that it takes to survive there then look it up or something…I’m bot a fan of his, but I do understand his environment..ain’t nothin in the calliope but untamed guerillas, n adults with third grade educations.
Calliope aint no different than compton, chiraq, etc.
what Leonard answered I didnt even know that some people can profit ($)5403 in 4 weeks on the computer. have you seen this web page… ow.ly/Qdfpc
Wow hhdx and cherise johnson,the headlines our out of context and soooo irresponsible. I watched part one and it looks like you’re looking for click-bait
Man why Angie askin the same sh*t in 100 diff. ways? At the end of the day u gotta respect Bird for being a great business man cuz he sure as well ain’t a multi platinum artist. All these artists complaining about not getting paid they gotta get their contract game up and understand everything they signing…. Charge it 2 da game ho!
Birdman talks like a bad actor in character as a drug lord in a low budget movie lol.
One night with Angie and I’ll have her ass waddling all bow legged for days after I’m done with her. She’s sexy.
