Part of the rift that developed in the Young Money camp between Birdman and his artists was reportedly due to lack of freedom for their product. In the case of Lil Wayne, who put on artists like Drake and Nicki Minaj, part of his beef has been that he has not been able to sign artists he hopes will carry on the YMCMB legacy because of Birdman’s limitations.
That has been the case when it comes to Chanel West Coast. It was reported that the rapper/singer had signed with Young Money back in 2013 but ultimately the deal never went through.
It has now come out that, according to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Baby kept Wayne from bringing on Chanel, which he claims lost the label millions of dollars in potential sales, etc. She is even still listed on the official site as one of YMCMB’s artists to this day.
The documents are among the myriads of ones in the ongoing protracted legal battle between Lil Wayne and his former boss. TMZ reached out to Birdman to field reaction from him. So far, they haven’t heard anything back.
For additional Lil Wayne coverage, watch the following DX Daily:
In retrospect, Bryan (refuse to call a grown man Birdman or Baby) saved Wayne by putting a sanction on signing Chanel; only because the rap public hadn’t embrace her, due to her affiliation with Rob Dydrek and his show
This ugly broad is a good for nothing. Straight up
Looks alright to me
Simple, those artists sucked bigtime. Birdman was trying to protect wayne from hurting his reputation. Chanel west coast was a crappy pop artist.
Every artist signed to Cash Money sucks. Birdman doesn’t care about Wayne’s reputation as Wayne already hurt it by making nothing but shitty records.
Birdman refused to put out that carter 5 unless it was perfect. That’s how much attention birdman gives to quality.
Wayne just wanted in that puzzy.
Sign her.fuck birdman.u the best rapper in the world.
why these nxggas stay in the news even when it’s about their failures
Clicks=views=money.
dis the same n!&&@ that signed paris hilton
who would sign this stupid cunt
Please note that birdman did initally offer to allow wayne to run his own label without interference yet like the dumbass he is, he allowed birdman to take ownership.
