Since the mid 2000s, Lil Wayne was the face of cash money but Juv and Mannie Fresh were the building blocks that formed the label not Wayne. He hopped on an already successful label when his first album dropped.
Kevin Breaux .... A successful label that would've folded 10 years ago w/o Wayne. Manny was the heart & the sound of Cash Money, but it was Wayne's growth as an artist that kept them from being a flash in the pan. Juve is a Down South legend, and Manny is a GOD behind the boards; but trying to tell me Cash Money as a label would be where they are w/o Wayne's efforts is just short-sided. Did you hear the numbers at the end?!? Carter 4 did a million in the first week and his one of his worst albums!!! Lets not even compare his OTHER albums to all the other Cash Money talent (not Young Money, which again, is IMPOSSIBLE w/o Wayne). No involvement from Fresh or Juve. His constant evolution is what kept Cash Money relevant. It's like drafting Kobe outta high school....Yeah Shaq, Fisher, Gasol, Bynum are all big players who were critical in winning a ring. But the motor that makes that machine work is Kobe. Same principle for Wayne. Not the best MC ever, but one of the most original artists and certainly a very diligent worker & label head.
D.L. Grimes I didn't disagree with you, what I meant to say was that Wanye sustained the label and helped it prosper when some of the original members jumped ship.
Snoop Dogg kept the lights on at Death Row when Suge went to prison, Tupac died and Dr. Dre left to start Aftermath. 50 Cent kept the lights on at Shady records when Eminem fell back and no one was checking for D-12. Kanye West kept the lights on at Rocafella when Dame Dash, Biggs and Jay Z all split up and no one was checking for Beans nor State Property & Dipset left. Yes Charlamagne is right Wayne kept that label not only relevant but kept that cash flow coming when everyone left them. Just because Wayne doesn't have a huge hit doesn't mean Baby should treat him like he's yesterdays news and I am not a huge fan of Wayne like that
Vlad's buggin'. Lil Wayne IS Cash Money! Always has been. Listen to any Hot Boy$ single and Wayne has the best verse on every one. "Bling Bling" even though he wasn't on the album version, "Hot Girl" when him and Turk exchanged bars, "We On Fire" all verses were equal, "Playa Why You Hatin" although it technically wasn't their song, "Project Bitch," the list goes on. Cash Money without Lil Wayne is like the Lakers without Kobe.
AR$3N bruh go check the rap sheet nigah! BG was the first one on cash money, check BG old shxt an check da flow. An tell BG ain’t help build cash money before wayne became hot-
koolerystyle cash Money Records been on an been selling albums. Juve made CMR worldwide wHEN 400 degrees DROPPED! Oh that’s when the south was opened bacc then.
I don't listen to Wayne no more, after sophomore year of high school which was 5 years ago he got corny to me. But I'm not going to lie. He's the mixtape king of all time. He transcended the way mixtapes are used today. No ceilings was his last good project in my personal opinion.
+EconomicSuicideTheGreat After Biggie died Diddy kept the lights on at Bad Boy, R Kelly at the time was a megastar in the 90/2000's and Birdman kept the lights on at Cash Money
AuraMaster Diddy used every artist he signed just to keep them lights on, just as Birdman did as well. There was nobody checking for a birdman or Diddy cd
Charlamagne was trying to re-write history.. he was downplaying Juvenile and Big Tymers in the early days.. Wayne was hot back then, but he was still like 4th on the totem pole at the time.. and Baby was HOT on a mainstream level for a minute before Wayne started to take over in 2004..
iGoTtHEJuice sucka mannie fresh built up cash money , he solo produced every single album and every single hit. He rapped on them , gave them the look. Oh gawd , the guy is so talented. He was the real super star behind the engine. MANNIE FRESH. Juvie was the one who broke through the glass though , respect to the man. Wayne was not even 20 by the time all these happened.
there was a time that Birdman was actually a "nice" rapper lol .... don't lie, y'all know damn well "Still Fly" "Numba 1 Stunna" & "Get your Roll On" was the shit back in the day lol..
Man !!! I hate niggas like you taking away credit frm Wayne !!! Wayne does all his wrk for himself & yes Wayne did use to write for baby so I don't know what u on about !! Nigga if Wayne was wasn't doing shit himself he would have been exposed by now WTF ! Stop hating !
I will always remember Lil Wayne as an double edge sword, One of the greatest HipHop pioneers lyrically underrated & the man who almost killed the lyrical, essence of HipHop. The man who influenced 2 generations to try and bite bits of his style miserably and fucking up HipHop almost temporary with his mainstream success. But the GOOD will outweigh the bad for me and i'm definitely checking for the Carter 5 especially considering how Lil Wayne is writing bars again.
Most definitely, like it is sad when people say Wayne is the worst rapper or one of the worst rappers of all time that man was the best rapper at one point in time. Wayne is a legend. Though I'm not listening to anything past Carter 2 he is a legend. I'm gonna check for C5 and SFTW2 tomorrow.
God Soul Production Right and even when he stopped giving a fuck he still always had at least 2 song I liked from every album, and people need to stop fronting like Wayne never was their favorite rapper at one point of time I dont care how much of an ''real hip hop'' head you are.
Samuel Sjöstedt Gonzalez exactly, I know he was mine at some point. I think dickriders just hear some people say he's the worst so they hop on that bandwagon and follow along
The only people who say Wayne is the worst rapper ever are these white boys who only listen Eminem and Wu Tang thinking that they really hip hop heads. Those bitches will hate anything with a southern twang. Wayne is a legend in any sense if the word. Yea his past couple projects IMO were pretty trash, but you never know. Wayne might get back to his Carter 5 days. Just wait and see
@@Jushwa bg left...juvie left...if it wasnt for wayne cash money really wouldnt of been nothing but wayne held it down. I still believe young thug and all these new artist would've signed to CMR doe so maybe CM still wouldve been something just not as legendary.
And that album was trash he was just riding the wave off of the other successful projects that was put out by Juvie "highest selling artist from cash money till this day", B.G., and The Hot Boys project". That album went platinum than the next couple albums hit gold status until he released The Carter 3 how many years later............
I hate when people say that because that's not true at all. Envy album went gold because he had legitimate artists who the public was checking for on his project and Wayne was doing numbers because of the Cash Money success but everybody who dropped wasn't automatically selling 500 thousand and a million records those that were was because their music was legitimately good unlike what it is nowadays.
Wayne became the biggest thing on Cash Money after everyone left. People forget Wayne had a couple albums before he hit with all the Carters and those albums didn't do much. Wayne most definitely stepped up and carried them but i would say Mannie Fresh was a bigger reason for their early success than Wayne was.
Chars last point was right on the money. If Cole can sell 600K plus albums in a month, and isn't nearly as popular at Wayne. Then Tha Carter 5 would go platinum easily.
The reason why Cole sold as much as he did was because of that David Letterman performance right before his album dropped. That song had a strong message and all types of folks related to what he was saying not only the hip hop audience. Wayne isn't saying anything at all. CTG doesn't know WTF he's talking about I didn't even watch the video yet.
You crazy where talking about hip hop and dude didn't drop anything decent in a while. Niggas is hoping praying he drops something hot but if its not they gonna move onto someone else just like they do to everybody. 50 is considered A list and that nigga can't even give his music away and its decent. I never was a Wayne fan anyway so I could care less but one thing I do know the last song I've heard from him was straight trash.
Dude 600k+ in a month? He gained alot of new fans because of that performance. When he wasn't really saying much like the rest of the pack thats out there how long did it take him to sell that many units?
"Cash Money obviously wants to make money off their artist" Fuck outta here Vlad, tell that to Bow wow, Busta, Jae Millz, Gudda Gudda, Chanel Westcoast, Shanell, Lil Chukee, Jae Sean, Currency and the others who been sitting on the label for years
kinglouis1993 Ohh all right I got you now. To be honest though, I'm glad Wayne did that, cus if Curren$y had never left, I don't think he'd be as good as he is now.
Yeah I just don't understand why he constantly uses autotune in his raps, even when he's not singing. Someone just needs to sit his ass down and say, "step your bars up, and kill whatever producer keeps telling you to put autotune on your vocals". Autotune is dead. T-Pain doesn't even use the shit anymore.
Juvenile was Cash Money. Him and B.G had the streets on lock durin cash money prime. Juvie made everyone pay attention to Cash Money that opened up the doors for all of them. They left then Wayne took over.
real have known of Wayne since he was 16. wayne couldnt get the push bc he was underage n cussed on his albums. at that point n time, kids wasnt suppose do that. when he hit 18, he got the push. wayne always been cash money.
Vlad really is having a hard time showing tribute to wayne. Wayne is the best rapper to ever live. He built the biggest record label EVER lil wayne,Drake, nicki, flow, cory gunz,.... cmon ! show tribute vlad!
I think this is a publicity stunt. Wayne probably has new "music" coming soon. Soon as it releases, everything will go back to normal and "we're family" & "we worked it out." A lot of entertainers are doing it. Nick and Mariah are the two prime examples. Frankly, I wanna pull the plug on Cash Money and cancel them out, but that's just me.
i havent watchd this, nor will i, all this "nu msic coin out" ,people talkin bout him like pac in late 90s…HE AINT DEAD YET…dont care for none of it, WHERE STAR AT?!!!
I was thinking the same thing it just looks like a way to get alot of attention to the album so it will sell well. They probably want to do platinum in first week sales, who knows. Just like nicky crying about her boyfriend breakup and crap on angela martinez. It just looked too fake and insincere I don't know what thas was about. Yeah and you are going to see alot of gay and white rappers coming soon its thier turn now.
Agreed, I'm not into any of the rappers on that roster. Nicki wack, Drake is wack, and Wayne can't make a decent solo song without a feature. All of em need to GTFOH! lol
Juvenile carried cash money and BG before Wayne dropped his first album, but when the carter dropped it was history in the making now he's in his 30s, skateboarding and getting more tats and if that mixtape that he just put out gives any indication of what his album will sound like then It's most likely trash
That's what I'm saying too though, they don't even know who lil Wayne is really all they know is drake and nicki minaj, they just like Wayne was when baby and slim and mannie fresh was with big timers when I was coming up
BG was the best nigga in cash money "Cash money ain't a army nigga, a navy nigga, so if you ever try to harm me nigga it ain't gravy nigga" that shit was hot back in the day
Lil Wayne is still in my top 5 and people really need to Respect him as one of the best frfr , I grew up listening to lil Wayne and it's sad to see the label doing him like this I agree with everything Charlamagne said With that I'll like to simply say LIL WAYNE IS CASH MONEY YOUNG MONEY WITHOUT HIM BIRDMAN AND SLIM WOULD'VE DROPPED BACK DOWN TO JUST BEING KNOWN LOCALLY, LIL WAYNE CARRIED THEM AFTER EVERYONE LEFT 💯💯💯💯
Lil Wayne is the founder of YM that (Cash Money) had to give he his own label to keep him from signing with Jay Z......That's where *Lil Wayne (President Carter) came from*......Young Money that was created by Lil Wayne after SQAUD UP kept Cash Money records alive...Hell Cash Money has not had ANY artist drop in 15 years other then Lil Wayne...The Rest is really YOUNG MONEY
I also agree that Weezy has a big enough name that he could drop Carter % without a big single and could sell 250K easily first week (disappointing compared to C3 or C4) because of name alone. Baby knows this and I think as long as he keeps Lil Wayne from dropping it, the longer he can keep Wayne on the books. I think this could actually be beneficial for Wayne because that could force him to focus on dropping quality mixtapes again (SFTW2 wasn't one)
I'm not a big Wayne fan but what the fuck is Vlad talking about? Juvie hasn't had a hit in 15yrs. Drake and Nicki signed because of Wayne. Everybody else on the label are 1-hit wonders at best.
Juvenile he was still hot after he left cash money and out out his first 1 album reality check in 2006 it did good but he hasn't been hot in the last 5 years but not 15
Cash Money history: Early days with acts like Magnolia Shorty (RIP), UNLV, B.G., Wayne (I know they go back a few years before this but I just went with the big names). It was B.G. and Juvie (and the Big Tymers as well) that got them the deal with Universal. B.G.'s albums sold over 100K independently. After they got signed to Universal (their best era), Juvie and B.G. carried the label. Then it was the Hot Boyz and Big Tymers. Wayne had gold albums but he was still low on the totem pole. It wasn't until all those acts left (along with Mannie Fresh) that Wayne got his shine. As Charlamagne stated, Wayne was close to signing with Jay-Z but stayed loyal to Baby (mistake) and ended up with Young Money. He dropped all those classic mixtapes, Like Father Like Son and then C3. He kept that label (CM) afloat for 4-5 years until Drake and Nicki came aboard. Phase 4 included Weezy, Nicki, Drake and later on Tyga, Lil Twist, etc. All YM artists. Baby was the only one dropping albums on Cash Money. Just like the other artists before them, Drake and Tyga said they got screwed out of their royalties and even Nicki has come out with subliminals about the label. Baby thought he was on top of the world with Rich Gang with Thug and Quan but they ended up fading. Wayne had to sue to get his paper. Drake has OVO and probably gone once his contract is up. Nicki as well. Baby has no loyalty. All he cares about is $$$.
Here's what i believe happened: Wayne wanted to release the Carter 5 late 2014 but nicki minaj's the pink print was already set to be released on that time and Birdman realized it would be a bad business move to release the albums of two of the biggest artists on the label at the same time because they wouldn't maximize on their potential sales. And the Carter 5 didn't have enough buzz behind it yet for a Carter album compared to the pink print so nicki became the priority. id say wayne was kinda in his feelings
But where they at now? He ain't saying Wayne started CMB, he sayin he's kept it alive. plus bling bling and Waynes drop it like its hot verse were big af
+bronsoninnit Unfortunately he's correct when Pac died death row went down and if Wayne died in his prime cash money would be like death row and birdman would be like suge
I agree with Charlamagne 100% on this one. Yeah, Juvenile and those other guys were hot. No question about it. Juve dropped first and Cash Money blew up. But after they left, Cash Money could've died out. But who kept it afloat? Wayne. Period. If Wayne hadn't stuck around as long as he did, CMB WOULD NOT EXIST. Young Money might, but Cash Money sure as hell wouldn't.
You are 1000% right!!!! All those mixtapes Wayne dropped back-to-back, all the features and remixes, The Carter album series itself... WAYNE WAS THE OIL THAT KEPT THE CASH MONEY GEARS GOING.
Charlamagne is really trying to re-write history lol. Wayne didn't get a top 10 hit until 04 with "Go DJ". Birdman had top 10 hits in 02 with Clipse and Diddy.
Lil Wayne was NOT the first to use the term "bling, bling"... Jesse West (Third Eye) who was part of Puff Daddy's original hitmen crew, is the first to use that on the "Dolly My Baby (Bad Boy Remix)" by Super Cat.
Nawww juvenile was tha man who started CashMoney first then 2nd it was B.G. then tha 3rd is wayne then wayne took over tha game after in tha early 2000
Why not give Wayne wat he deserves, Wayne is a living legend. I honestly believe wayne will end up in a history book later on in life cus he's that damn great... People cried when they THOUGHT he was gonna die frm that last seizure. Give that man his money, he earned dat shit, lil wayne IS cashmoney
Me personally I was listening to cash money when wayne was 14 .. I had all of bg's albums and knew them top to bottom had all of cash moneys albums when manny fresh and bird man was rapping.. so as along time fan (more so back then) I can say we were listening to all of them back in those days.. once wayne took off and got in his zone the entire label focused on him and rode his back ..
Charlemagne keepin it G. True Juvie put Cash Money on the map with hit after hit but he faded away eventually. Fresh was the signature sound but he had to leave because Baby is bad business. But if Wayne had left with the rest of them, Baby and Slim wouldn't be doing most of the shit they're doing now. Wayne IS Cash Money. Birdman fuckin shit up tryna run with young guys whose sound won't last long. At least Wayne somehow stayed great behind the rock album
He's right though... until Weezy stops outselling baby, Young Thug, Young Dolph etc Cash Money is gonna go bankrupt if he leaves. Baby know he ain't shit without Weezy smh
CTG is wrong for saying that Wayne is the reason why everybody checked for Cash Money. Juve dropped a cult classic before it was even 2000. "You see me? I eat, sleep, shit & talk rap. Ya seen that 98 Mercedes on TV? I bought that."
guys im from germany and been a hiphop fan for years. Early 2000's birdman and wayne were the shit, no one here gave a fuck about them other guys on cash money, juve was more like a one hit wonder overhere. When wayne was featured on the soldier song with beyonce an t.i. He got really famous and after go dj,fireman, and finally lollipop he was the face of mainstream hiphop
Wayne is the trendsetter for this generation, all these rapper with colorful dread lock, weird looking and gayness. Wayne revolutionize gayness weirdo colorful dread lock rappers.
"Birdman is the richest struggle rapper of all-time." True story.
Not true lol birdman has signed blueface nba youngboy and Kodak black in 2018-19 big L for you buddy
Sam Daniels youngboy signed time Atlantic records and young Thug record label
Sam Daniels nba youngboy signed to Atlantic records and young thug record label
@@samdaniels7133 bruh his comment was made when NBA young boy was still a sophomore in highschool
He was never a rapper wtf
kendrick should thank God that he didnt sign witth young money. the nigga would be lil chuckee right now.
He knew were his home was to begin with tde
he was supposed to sign with ym first. Then weezy just said no for some reason. And in retaliation Kendrick made c3.
And 2 chainz
He was initially supposed to be on Def Jam I think.
You think so? Lol

Juve is a Down South legend, and Manny is a GOD behind the boards; but trying to tell me Cash Money as a label would be where they are w/o Wayne's efforts is just short-sided.

Erick Espinoza right lol.

May sound corny, but Mac Miller is the mixtape king
Naw yall buggin stack bundles is the king of mixtapes after that gucci cuz that nigga go 2 many mixtapes

If it wasn't for Wayne doing the Carter's 1&2 cash money would have ended
But birdman was doing music with r kelly and diddy. That kept cash money alive
cash money would have died without wayne..r&b was dyinh at that point and diddy(no one cares)..

bruh i get so tired of people not giving juve and fresh they props
Totally agree. One of the few times that Vlad has talked more sense than the person he's interviewing.
True
iGoTtHEJuice sucka
mannie fresh built up cash money , he solo produced every single album and every single hit. He rapped on them , gave them the look. Oh gawd , the guy is so talented. He was the real super star behind the engine. MANNIE FRESH. Juvie was the one who broke through the glass though , respect to the man. Wayne was not even 20 by the time all these happened.
I could of swore I heard Charlamagne say after all of those guys left Wayne kept the lights on
there was a time that Birdman was actually a "nice" rapper lol .... don't lie, y'all know damn well "Still Fly" "Numba 1 Stunna" & "Get your Roll On" was the shit back in the day lol..
never nigga! Those songs were hot because of mannie fresh beats and catchy
hooks not because baby was "nice"...what u smokin?
100% True imo.

Fuck his father he kissed him in the mouth

Happy MLK Day!
Vlad bugging acting lil WA wasn't shit when he first got on cash money he must've forgot Wayne first album block is hot went platinum
And that album was trash he was just riding the wave off of the other successful projects that was put out by Juvie "highest selling artist from cash money till this day", B.G., and The Hot Boys project". That album went platinum than the next couple albums hit gold status until he released The Carter 3 how many years later............
Back in those days you could have farted on 12 songs and that shit would go gold . Dj Envy had an album go gold LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
I hate when people say that because that's not true at all. Envy album went gold because he had legitimate artists who the public was checking for on his project and Wayne was doing numbers because of the Cash Money success but everybody who dropped wasn't automatically selling 500 thousand and a million records those that were was because their music was legitimately good unlike what it is nowadays.

To be honest though, I'm glad Wayne did that, cus if Curren$y had never left, I don't think he'd be as good as he is now.
Who is Chanel Westcoast?
Brandon Standifer Look her up.
man i miss Waynes no ceilings flow, tracks like single and wasted were straight fire
You miss his flow? Or miss Wayne not overusing the hell out of autotune?
+John Barnett LOL both before he had a nice flow and better lyrical content now its just auto tune and shit bars
Yeah I just don't understand why he constantly uses autotune in his raps, even when he's not singing. Someone just needs to sit his ass down and say, "step your bars up, and kill whatever producer keeps telling you to put autotune on your vocals".
Autotune is dead. T-Pain doesn't even use the shit anymore.
+trevon444 he still does listen 2 fat Albert
Of all the tracks to hype, you chose ‘Single’? Especially when you’re ranting about flow? Really?
"Birdman, the richest struggle rapper of all time" LOOOOOL
"You kissed him in the mouth"😂😂😂😂
He did tho
@Shwa yeah, we're aware... no where did he say they didn't, thry just thought it was funny.. and it is hilarious.
Juvenile was Cash Money. Him and B.G had the streets on lock durin cash money prime. Juvie made everyone pay attention to Cash Money that opened up the doors for all of them. They left then Wayne took over.
TRUE FACTS
real have known of Wayne since he was 16. wayne couldnt get the push bc he was underage n cussed on his albums. at that point n time, kids wasnt suppose do that. when he hit 18, he got the push. wayne always been cash money.
n u also forgetting about Turk
Wayne kept that label gowing. Ngga ain't lie bout shit. 400 degrees a classic tho. But But wayne put the most work in. #Nosickdays
Vlad: And Baby kept the lights on as well.
CTG: No No No No No
😂😂😂
The thing about charlamagne is he keeps it to real lol and people get stuck in their feelings when he speaks. Truth hurts people lmao
he actually had a best of both worlds album coming out with rkelly.... "and nobody gave a shit" Lmao dude is fucking hilarious
WITHOUT WAYNE
THERE IS NO CASH MONEY!!! WITHOUT YOUNG MONEY THERE IS NO CASH MONEY!!!
💯💯💯
Vlad really is having a hard time showing tribute to wayne. Wayne is the best rapper to ever live. He built the biggest record label EVER lil wayne,Drake, nicki, flow, cory gunz,.... cmon ! show tribute vlad!
Wayne did kept cash money going
Young thug had cash moneys back more than Wayne
@@samdaniels7133 Nigga Wayne held down cash money for over a decade the fuck is you talking about. He also brought in Nicki Minaj & Drake
@@trunks6179 And Tyga
Charlamagne keeping it 100! Salute!
I think this is a publicity stunt. Wayne probably has new "music" coming soon. Soon as it releases, everything will go back to normal and "we're family" & "we worked it out." A lot of entertainers are doing it. Nick and Mariah are the two prime examples. Frankly, I wanna pull the plug on Cash Money and cancel them out, but that's just me.
i havent watchd this, nor will i, all this "nu msic coin out" ,people talkin bout him like pac in late 90s…HE AINT DEAD YET…dont care for none of it, WHERE STAR AT?!!!
CANCEL
I was thinking the same thing it just looks like a way to get alot of attention to the album so it will sell well. They probably want to do platinum in first week sales, who knows. Just like nicky crying about her boyfriend breakup and crap on angela martinez. It just looked too fake and insincere I don't know what thas was about. Yeah and you are going to see alot of gay and white rappers coming soon its thier turn now.
Agreed, I'm not into any of the rappers on that roster. Nicki wack, Drake is wack, and Wayne can't make a decent solo song without a feature. All of em need to GTFOH! lol
CTG the realist nigga alive!!!!
Nah
Sometimes
If i hold my breath!
AMV200 yea i hear he was a pretty intelligent guy. A few guys i watch talk about him often imma have to look him up
if that's true we all might as well call it a day
I don't usually agree with anything charlamagne says but he actually made a lot of sense in this interview .
"And know one gave a shit " LMFAOOOO
Juvenile carried cash money and BG before Wayne dropped his first album, but when the carter dropped it was history in the making now he's in his 30s, skateboarding and getting more tats and if that mixtape that he just put out gives any indication of what his album will sound like then It's most likely trash
That's what I'm saying too though, they don't even know who lil Wayne is really all they know is drake and nicki minaj, they just like Wayne was when baby and slim and mannie fresh was with big timers when I was coming up
Here from the Breakfast club interview with Birdman to see Charlemagne disrespecting him lol
+2016 fa sho I'm pulling up on you nigga
+Vegan russell lmao
Aretha Franklin RESPECK
Vlad stop talking !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BG was the best nigga in cash money "Cash money ain't a army nigga, a navy nigga, so if you ever try to harm me nigga it ain't gravy nigga" that shit was hot back in the day
"this is different .. this is like a bad break up" read between those lines.
You broke up the sentence
That’s hard
5yrs later, Charlamagne-"I'm just the radio guy "..🤣🤣
“This is like Will and Jada” 0:53
Yikes.
Lil Wayne is still in my top 5 and people really need to Respect him as one of the best frfr , I grew up listening to lil Wayne and it's sad to see the label doing him like this I agree with everything Charlamagne said With that I'll like to simply say LIL WAYNE IS CASH MONEY YOUNG MONEY WITHOUT HIM BIRDMAN AND SLIM WOULD'VE DROPPED BACK DOWN TO JUST BEING KNOWN LOCALLY, LIL WAYNE CARRIED THEM AFTER EVERYONE LEFT 💯💯💯💯
I have to agree with his point. lol wayne did make cash money.
I love how Charlamagne and vlad sound like they're just having a conversation, how natural it feels
Lil Wayne is the founder of YM that (Cash Money) had to give he his own label to keep him from signing with Jay Z......That's where *Lil Wayne (President Carter) came from*......Young Money that was created by Lil Wayne after SQAUD UP kept Cash Money records alive...Hell Cash Money has not had ANY artist drop in 15 years other then Lil Wayne...The Rest is really YOUNG MONEY
Wayne is the reason why I even started listening to Cash Money let alone Young Money.
Charlamagne is 100% right.
I also agree that Weezy has a big enough name that he could drop Carter % without a big single and could sell 250K easily first week (disappointing compared to C3 or C4) because of name alone. Baby knows this and I think as long as he keeps Lil Wayne from dropping it, the longer he can keep Wayne on the books. I think this could actually be beneficial for Wayne because that could force him to focus on dropping quality mixtapes again (SFTW2 wasn't one)
Nobody cared about Lil Wayne back in the day when there was Juve, bg, and big tymers. Lil Wayne just kept the lights on when everybody else left.
That's a bit of a stretch Yes u can argue about Wayne being the Best rapper out of the hotboys but to say nobody cared about him is crazy
"Life is a marathon, not a sprint" knowledge!
Lmao, richest struggle rapper
"Ha" by Juvenile started it all for cash money (MTV) 1998
I'm not a big Wayne fan but what the fuck is Vlad talking about? Juvie hasn't had a hit in 15yrs. Drake and Nicki signed because of Wayne. Everybody else on the label are 1-hit wonders at best.
Tyga?
Facts... Well put
Juvenile he was still hot after he left cash money and out out his first 1 album reality check in 2006 it did good but he hasn't been hot in the last 5 years but not 15
**put out**
When juvenile came back with slow motion and rodeo imo those were his best hits.
I agree with Charlamagne
Cash Money history:
Early days with acts like Magnolia Shorty (RIP), UNLV, B.G., Wayne (I know they go back a few years before this but I just went with the big names). It was B.G. and Juvie (and the Big Tymers as well) that got them the deal with Universal. B.G.'s albums sold over 100K independently.
After they got signed to Universal (their best era), Juvie and B.G. carried the label. Then it was the Hot Boyz and Big Tymers. Wayne had gold albums but he was still low on the totem pole.
It wasn't until all those acts left (along with Mannie Fresh) that Wayne got his shine. As Charlamagne stated, Wayne was close to signing with Jay-Z but stayed loyal to Baby (mistake) and ended up with Young Money. He dropped all those classic mixtapes, Like Father Like Son and then C3. He kept that label (CM) afloat for 4-5 years until Drake and Nicki came aboard.
Phase 4 included Weezy, Nicki, Drake and later on Tyga, Lil Twist, etc. All YM artists. Baby was the only one dropping albums on Cash Money. Just like the other artists before them, Drake and Tyga said they got screwed out of their royalties and even Nicki has come out with subliminals about the label.
Baby thought he was on top of the world with Rich Gang with Thug and Quan but they ended up fading. Wayne had to sue to get his paper. Drake has OVO and probably gone once his contract is up. Nicki as well.
Baby has no loyalty. All he cares about is $$$.
I think juvenile started cash money with all the hits he had but wayne kept it going so I think cash money wouldn't be nothing with out both of them
:37 “that’s a different kind of contract”
😂😂
Did anybody count how many time charlamagne said "kissed in the mouth"?
Here's what i believe happened: Wayne wanted to release the Carter 5 late 2014 but nicki minaj's the pink print was already set to be released on that time and Birdman realized it would be a bad business move to release the albums of two of the biggest artists on the label at the same time because they wouldn't maximize on their potential sales. And the Carter 5 didn't have enough buzz behind it yet for a Carter album compared to the pink print so nicki became the priority. id say wayne was kinda in his feelings
He tripping, Juve and BG are the ones who made Cash Money big. Especially Juvenile, he's the main reason for Cash Money's start...
Robert Walker u ain't lying
But where they at now? He ain't saying Wayne started CMB, he sayin he's kept it alive. plus bling bling and Waynes drop it like its hot verse were big af
Robert Walker damn right
Vlad you can’t argue about black culture idc how much you know
your not putting respeck on his name
Lil Wayne leaving Cash Money is like 2PAC leaving death Row
+bronsoninnit Unfortunately he's correct when Pac died death row went down and if Wayne died in his prime cash money would be like death row and birdman would be like suge
Juvenile put cash money on the map period.
Erick Espinoza yeah back in 98-2001ish
Birdman got struggle raps 😂😂
Love this nigga
Da richest struggle rapper 😂😂😂😂
I agree with Charlamagne 100% on this one. Yeah, Juvenile and those other guys were hot. No question about it. Juve dropped first and Cash Money blew up. But after they left, Cash Money could've died out. But who kept it afloat? Wayne. Period. If Wayne hadn't stuck around as long as he did, CMB WOULD NOT EXIST. Young Money might, but Cash Money sure as hell wouldn't.
You are 1000% right!!!! All those mixtapes Wayne dropped back-to-back, all the features and remixes, The Carter album series itself... WAYNE WAS THE OIL THAT KEPT THE CASH MONEY GEARS GOING.
Charlamagne is really trying to re-write history lol. Wayne didn't get a top 10 hit until 04 with "Go DJ". Birdman had top 10 hits in 02 with Clipse and Diddy.
Lil Wayne was NOT the first to use the term "bling, bling"... Jesse West (Third Eye) who was part of Puff Daddy's original hitmen crew, is the first to use that on the "Dolly My Baby (Bad Boy Remix)" by Super Cat.
Love this interview!! It's funny & true as fuck!
His last comment about J. Cole and Wayne made all the sense in the world.
would lil wayne get jealous if Birdman kisses another dude
Fuck yeah he would. Thats his man.
Run E he jealous of young thug
how did I not see this ages ago, this is one of the rare times I agree whole heartedly with this charlamagne dude.
Nawww juvenile was tha man who started CashMoney first then 2nd it was B.G. then tha 3rd is wayne then wayne took over tha game after in tha early 2000
Outcold Fella facts
Love this conversation/Debate between Vlad and Charlemagne ...like grown men
Listen they kissed in the mouth 😂😂😂😂 LMAO
Why not give Wayne wat he deserves, Wayne is a living legend. I honestly believe wayne will end up in a history book later on in life cus he's that damn great... People cried when they THOUGHT he was gonna die frm that last seizure. Give that man his money, he earned dat shit, lil wayne IS cashmoney
lol he kissed him in the mouth
Jonez Shmurda - True As Blue. Search that yall !
Vlad is so irritating
Me personally I was listening to cash money when wayne was 14 .. I had all of bg's albums and knew them top to bottom had all of cash moneys albums when manny fresh and bird man was rapping.. so as along time fan (more so back then) I can say we were listening to all of them back in those days.. once wayne took off and got in his zone the entire label focused on him and rode his back ..
Nobody is speaking on the fact that c5 is the last album in Wayne's deal. The day that album comes out he is a free agent. Or it could be a stunt.
LOL "HE'S THE RICHEST STRUGGLE RAPPER OF ALL TIME" that part killed me...still laughing
Let's get one thing clear Baby might be a shrewd businessman but he's one of the best hip hop history
Whats up with Charlemagne wit saying
"He kiss him in the mouth "1000 x we get it
Bro lol 😂
Dont cap shit is hilarious g lol
Charlemagne keepin it G. True Juvie put Cash Money on the map with hit after hit but he faded away eventually. Fresh was the signature sound but he had to leave because Baby is bad business. But if Wayne had left with the rest of them, Baby and Slim wouldn't be doing most of the shit they're doing now. Wayne IS Cash Money. Birdman fuckin shit up tryna run with young guys whose sound won't last long. At least Wayne somehow stayed great behind the rock album
If it wasn't for Bg it wouldn't be no Wayne.
Juvenile has the best verses of all the Hot Boyz
He's right though... until Weezy stops outselling baby, Young Thug, Young Dolph etc Cash Money is gonna go bankrupt if he leaves. Baby know he ain't shit without Weezy smh
Cash Money Is An Army by BG was actually the first big single from Cash Money before Back Dat Azz Up
most redeeming quote from charlamagne "life is a marathon, not a sprint"
PUT SOME RESPECTK ON MY NAME
CTG is wrong for saying that Wayne is the reason why everybody checked for Cash Money. Juve dropped a cult classic before it was even 2000.
"You see me? I eat, sleep, shit & talk rap.
Ya seen that 98 Mercedes on TV? I bought that."
im goin' listen to Solja Rag and reminisce about the old Juvie days.....
Me to
guys im from germany and been a hiphop fan for years. Early 2000's birdman and wayne were the shit, no one here gave a fuck about them other guys on cash money, juve was more like a one hit wonder overhere. When wayne was featured on the soldier song with beyonce an t.i. He got really famous and after go dj,fireman, and finally lollipop he was the face of mainstream hiphop
Wayne is the trendsetter for this generation, all these rapper with colorful dread lock, weird looking and gayness. Wayne revolutionize gayness weirdo colorful dread lock rappers.
