#BBB NEWS| Lil Wayne Renames Young Money To ‘F*ck Cash Money’ [VIDEO]

Lil’ Wayne had some more harsh words to spew at his former family, Cash Money Records. Despite recently stating that he wouldn’t let Birdman bring him down anymore, Weezy told a crowd in Garden City, Idaho that he has a new nickname for his foes.

“We got a nickname that’s aka F*ck Cash Money, how you doing?,” Wayne calmly told his fans as they cheered on with unbridled excitement. He might not be plotting everyday to take Baby down, but mentioning his old label around him probably isn’t the best idea.

Right now, rumors are still circulating about Roc Nation coming to Wayne’s rescue. While the company has yet to confirm their involvement with the Grammy Award winner, Weezy has been quite vocal about his love for the Roc.

#BBB NEWS| Birdman Calls Off Negotiations With Lil Wayne In $51 Million Lawsuit After He Disses Him Again [VIDEO]

It was starting to look like Birdman and Lil Wayne were close to an agreement. The former Cash Money partners were reportedly settling their extensive legal battle, but Birdman decided to call off all negotiations regarding the lawsuit, after Lil Wayne pulled one last stunt dissing his former mentor.

According to TMZ,  sources close to the situation confirmed that both legal parties were one meeting away from reaching a deal, when Lil Wayne decided to slide one last diss in.

During Tunechi’s LA show earlier in November, the rapper changed around the lyrics in his single, “I’m Me.” The song originally had a line that shouted out his former label Cash Money, but Weezy subbed it out for a Jay Z  and Roc Nation shout out, in light of his strained relationship with his former mentor. Wayne followed that subtle diss by saying “Suck my d*ck!” at the same show, according to video footage.

#BBB NEWS| Birdman Ordered To Present Financial Records To Judge

A judge has ordered Birdman and his team to bust out the books in his legal battle with Lil Wayne.

According to TMZ, Birdman’s lawyers have been forced to show just how an alleged missing $100 million advance was spent. Since bringing his issues with Birdman to light last year, Wayne claimed the Cash Money CEO spent the majority of the multi-million dollar advance they were meant to share.

So far, Birdman’s lawyers have presented over 20,000 documents to the defense, but they were reportedly full of fluff.

Birdman now has 30 days to turn over the appropriate documents –or else. His lawyers haven’t painted the best outcome for the businessman. Sources claimed the company’s bookkeeping wasn’t at it’s best over the past two years, with one of his lawyers noting, “It is what it is.”

#BBB NEWS| Lil Wayne Sued By Lawyer For Unpaid Legal Bills

The list of people suing Lil Wayne continues to grow. Lil Wayne’s former lawyer Michael Kramer sued the Young Money rapper in the Manhattan federal court Monday (Dec. 21) for Wayne’s failure to pay $375,239 in legal fees.

According to the lawsuit, Lil Wayne agreed to pay a $20,000 initial retainer and subsequent monthly bills in July 2013. But Wayne failed to pay his bills according to Kramer’s suit. Kramer’s law firm continued to bill Waynefrom November 2014 to October 2015. Kramer ultimately dropped Wayne as a client this past September due to Wayne’s debt.

#BBB NEWS| How Jay Z Helped Infuse D’USSE Into His Hip-Hop Empire [PHOTOS]

NEW YORK, NY - OCTOBER 20: General views of the TIDAL X: 1020 Amplified By HTC - Activations At Barclays Center Presented By D'USSE at Barclays Center of Brooklyn on October 20, 2015 in New York City. (Photo by Gustavo Caballero/Getty Images for D'USSE)

It was billed as the epic event of the year; a ridiculously lofty title that even within the razzle dazzle showbiz universe we live in can come off as pure, eye rolling hype.

But even if Tuesday’s (October 20) buzz-heavy, star-studded Tidal X concert at Brooklyn’s Barclay Center—headlined by Jay Z and Beyonce, and backed up by the roaring likes of Nicki Minaj, Rick Ross, Meek Mill, French Montana, Usher, Nick Jonas, Nas, and Lil Wayne—didn’t have extended set lists by these music mavens (all did one or two songs, yet the consensus is the head-banging, hair whipping Queen Bey stole the show), the sheer star power of it all was still impressive.

Yet for the thousands of fans who were a part of the fast-paced festivities, a chest-beating statement to celebrate 1 million subscribers of the Jay Z owned streaming music service Tidal, the nonprofit charity show featured an omnipresent brand throughout the main stage of the arena home of the NBA’s Brooklyn Nets as well as behind-the-scenes: D’USSE cognac. Of course, this was by no means some ham-fisted advertising ploy.

#BBB NEWS| Apple Blocked Tidal From Streaming Drake At Lil Weezyana Fest [PHOTO/TWEETS]

Last night should have been a rare win for Tidal, who had the rights to stream Lil Wayne’s Lil Weezyana Fest, which included a Hot Boys reunion and other high profile special guests.

One of those guests was Drake, and that’s when things got awkward for Jay Z’s company.

Since Drake is signed with Apple, the computer behemoth wouldn’t let their streaming music rival stream him. Instead, the audience got this message:

#BBB NEWS| Birdman Breaks His Silence On Lil Wayne Beef: “That F*cked My Day Up” [PHOTO]

We never really thought we’d see the day when Birdman and Lil’ Wayne were at odds. Taking it even further, there’s now rumors of violence and club showdowns between the two former “father and son.”

In 2015, the Cash Money Army is looking lonelier than ever with Weezy and the Hot Boys doing their own thing (Aside from Juvenile who remains with the label).

Until now, Baby has kept his silence. However, that all changes today with his first full length interview about the drama with Wayne. Power 105’s Angie Martinez recently spent a weekend with Birdman in Miami Beach to get all the goods.

“Nicki and Drake ain’t goin’ nowhere,” says Birdman during his interview with Angie Martinez. For 48 hours in Miami Beach, Angie and Baby spent time discussing all that happened with Cash Money and Young Money in the last year.
