Birdman Talks Cash Money Getting Turned Down by Labels Allegedly Because of Master P & Artwork

Birdman says Cash Money was turned away by labels early on.

He sat down with Nick Cannon for the Counsel Culture Show in the episode that dropped Wednesday (April 23) to talk about how he and his older brother Ronald “Slim” Williams became success stories, and some of the early label meetings they had before signing their historic deal with Universal Records. Cash Money then took a meeting with legendary rap label Def Jam, but was turned down because of their artwork, which still confuses the rapper and music executive. Master P and Birdman have seemed to have moved past those early issues, as the New Limit founder gave Lil Waynekey to New Orleans alongside Mayor LaToya Cantrell last year.
