Shortly after Lil Wayne sent out a series of tweets expressing his frustration with Cash Money, Vlad TV caught up with Long Beach, California rapper KXNG Crooked to get his thoughts on Weezy calling out his label home.
Prior to Vlad revealing that sources close to Lil Wayne who are normally quick to shoot down false stories went quiet after being asked about Wayne’s tweets, Crooked share his belief that those at Cash Money were going to say the rapper was hacked.
The Slaughterhouse emcee then stated that if the tweets were in fact sent from Lil Wayne then those at Cash Money need to do whatever’s necessary to “make Wayne happy.” He says the label should focus on making the rapper content since he helped in taking the label “to a whole ‘nother dimension.”
“I hope they do the right thing and make Wayne happy,” KXNG Crooked said. “If that’s true I think they should do the right thing because Wayne kept that label going. 400 Degreez took him to another universe. When Juvenile dropped that they went to a whole ‘nother planet. When everything start falling out with the—We all know the story. And B.G. is one of my favorite artists from the South. But when everything start falling apart, Wayne stepped up. And Wayne, he took that label to a whole ‘nother dimension. With great music. So, I just think—I’m a loyalty guy. Loyalty is royalty to me. You talking to a guy who’s very loyal about everything that I do and the people that I love and I deal with and I do business with…Whatever’s gonna make Wayne happy, they should do.”
Late last year, Lil Wayne caught many by surprise when he sent out the following message in a handful of tweets:
“To all my fans, I want u to know that my album won’t and hasn’t been released bekuz Baby & Cash Money Rec. refuse to release it. This is not my fault. I am truly and deeply sorry to all my fans but most of all to myself and my family for putting us in this situation. I want off this label and nothing to do with these people but unfortunately it ain’t that easy. I am a prisoner and so is my creativity Again,I am truly sorry and I don’t blame ya if ya fed up with waiting 4 me & this album. But thk u.”
All parties involved have remained relatively silent about Lil Wayne’s status with Cash Money. In late December, TMZ did report that Lil Wayne is allegedly seeking legal action in order to be dropped from the label.

Crooked I is right 🙂 Tha Carter series and wayne staying had an impact on cash money on taking them to the fucking top
If I were wayne I’d be mad at cash money and baby too. If this is really going to be his last album, they should market it as such. To me, it just seems like Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug sorta of fell into the cash money mix out of no where and birdman has put all his attention into them and not Lil wayne. Ideally they should have pushed Lil wayne to the moon for this album and then ushered in quan and thug as the newer face of cash money. I’d be pretty pissed off to if i basically carried a label on my own for 10+ years and wanted to go out with a bang with a final album
noone wants to hear waynes music about fuckin bitchs..its played out waynes trash now has been since middle 00’s
Its hard to tell whats real in this situation just had sony with bull crap to boost lagging movie sales and now bird brain and wayne pulling a stunt one thing is for sure bird brain has run thru a ton of money and he is going broke
As much as i dislike birdman hes is far from broke and wont be going broke anytime soon. He co owns cash money. And im not sure if you know but Cash Money signed one of, if not the, most lucrative distribution deal in hip hop back in the day and that deal is still going strong. Baby and Slim own more of their labels music than any other rapper owned labels. Also he gets residuals from all work that was put out under the cash money name from the time they put out their first song to this very day. Hes still eating off of the publishing for early Wayne albums, hot boys albums, bg, juvie etc etc and is eating off of Tyga, Drake, and Nicki today. His money hasnt slowed down in the least bruh
wayne is ultra garbage right now. but they need to pay that man. cash money would be completely done if wayne didn’t save them with the gillie/jay z/clipse inspired carter 1 album. they were completely done if that album would have bricked
baby wont release wayne’s album because it probably sucks….He’s doin wayne a solid n keppin him from shootin a brick
