Birdman explained to XXL today (October 28) why
Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj pushed back the release dates of their albums. The
CEO of Cash Money says that it was Lil Wayne’s idea and Young Money’s first
lady followed suit. “[Wayne]’s so much an artist like that,” Birdman says. “He
change his mind a lot. He feel like he want to do more. Really, they be on they
call. It ain’t on me. So whatever Wayne want to do, Nicki want to do. I leave
that up to them. I don’t decide on dates and everything. I don’t do none of
that.” Yesterday, karencivil.com announced that Lil Wayne was pushing back the
release date for Tha Carter V. The album was slated to be released today. Nicki
Minaj announced via press release that she moved the drop date for The
Pinkprint from November 24 to December 15. Also in the XXL interview, Birdman
discusses his work with Rich Homie Quan and Young Thug. “I’m just working with
them as artists,” he says. “It ain’t about what I can make from them. It’s what
I can make of ‘em. You can take nothing to something. That speaks more than
anything. That speaks volumes to me. I’m always gonna be a part of their
career. It ain’t about what I can make off them. You do something for a
muthafucka who never have nothing and make him outta something he gonna do for
you regardless.” In August, Rich Homie Quan said that he might sign with Cash
Money. “Cash Money my idols coming up,” he said at the time. “To just changing
the whole game. And if it doesn’t, it doesn’t, but I haven’t signed a deal at
the moment. I’m still independent as we speak. Other than that, man, like I
always say I’m trying to make the movement bigger than life. And if it works
out with Cash Money it works out, but if it doesn’t Birdman will be my uncle
for life.”
P.S. We have new EPs from Joe Budden and Cam'ron, Ransom's new album.
