Birdman was clearly feeling nostalgic earlier this week when he posted a throwback photo of himself to Instagram — pre-face tattoos. Rocking a giant cell phone and Girbaud jeans (remember those?), the burgeoning rap mogul looked ready to take on the world.
While reflecting on the photo, the Cash Money co-founder gave himself a new title.
“Really been doin this shit,” he wrote in the caption. “#stunnaman original uptown shit #king of hip hop. yung Stunna.”
An entire book could be written on Birdman’s contributions to the culture (in fact, Hip-Hop Hitmakers: The Story Of Cash Money Records by Terri Dougherty does a pretty thorough job). But for brevity’s sake, Birdman and his brother Ronald “Slim” Williams established Cash Money in 1991. Since then, it evolved into one of the most prolific rap labels out there.
The Big Tymer OG took Lil Wayne under his wing and helped propel his career to where it is today. Despite their sordid past, Wayne and Birdman have worked on numerous collaborations together, including 2004’s Tha Carter.
Birdman’s latest effort was Lost At Sea 2 with Jacquees, which was released last year.
He’s not even the king of his own castle.
Dude is really feeling himself.
He may be the king of shady business.
I got No respek for his name or game.
This viúvo se proof that systematic racism doesn’t exist, if it does, it isn’t working. Hahahahaha
Rappers are the most delusional idiots on the face of the earth smfh
That is a mf FACT
What happened to that boy?
Nas said it in ‘06..Hip hop is dead. Your claim is null and void Sandusky .
Self proclaimed kings of this or that are delusional morons. Look at LeBum and how he was supposed to transform the Lakers. That dipshit can’t even make all his free throws. Shit, he can’t even make half. LeBum can’t even shine Jordan’s Jordans. Same can be said for Birdman the molester. Nobody respects this clown except maybe Toni Braxton.
Bro, who are you mad at?
He’s the king of that weirdo funfetti lifestyle and cheating people out their money. He’ll probably end up like Shug
King of Pedophiles maybe lol
Nope. He’s the king of hiphop
More like Captain of a Sinking Ship. Cash Money is dead
Rest assured this “kang” got people with last names like Cohen, Silver, Goldberg etc as his slavemasters.
You’d think this would be common knowledge by now.
Whatever happened to his affair with Thugger
He has AIDs now lol
He’s got AIDs now lol
On some Russell Simmons ish ? Is Baller Blocking 2 coming out ?
FACTS. BIRDMAN GOT THE CROWN AFTER THAT LEGENDARY VERSE HE DID WITH HYPONOTIZE MINDS. GAME CHANGER FOR REAL.
I agree with birdman. He pretty much changed the rap scene in the late 90’s early 2k’s. The south took over at that point. Don’t get it twisted tho. MJG and 8ball,geto boys,Luke are the grandfathers to the south shit.
(Say it with me)
BRUHHHHHHHHHH
I think ole StunnaMan might have some form of ink poisoning from all those whack ass face and head tattoos.
King Of Hip Hop? Did I read that right? My eyes are close together but come on my dude.
The only hot verses you ever spit were written by the HotBoys. Not one person quotes a “Turdman” verse. Nobody is calling for a Turdman feature. You robbed your own people blind and got them hooked on that shit to get you where you’re at now.
You’re a low life piece of shit. You may have some kind of business sense butbhey even crooks can make an honest dime here and there.
KING OF HIP HOP!!!!! And it’s March 1st, not even April fools yet.
Do i really need to respond to fat boy? Everybody left cash money and the artists that he owned were a bunch of pussies. Fat boy is the king of kissing men in the mouth.
I will agree, he’s the King, but not of hip hop. He the King of Trans hop.
