News: Lil Wayne is Suing Birdman for $8 Million

Wayne Birdman

Well, if there was a discrepancy between Lil Wayne and Birdman it has been turned up two notches today. According to TMZ, Lil Wayne is planning on suing Birdman for a reported $8 million. They tried to settle things amicably over the last few days to no avail, and now Wayne is saying Birdman owes him $8 million.

He is also asking a judge to free him of his contract with Cash Money Records and Birdman’s control. Wayne says Birdman has violated their contract by withholding the release of his new album. Birdman has held firm … he will release the album “in due time,” but clearly that’s not good enough for Wayne. Sources say Lil Wayne will keep recording but he will release his works outside of the Cash Money umbrella. Is this the end of an empire?

Who kept this s**t together? N****, me, that’s who.
Who was there when n****s left us? N****, me, that’s who.
Cash Money is an army, I’m a one man army.
And if them n****s comin’ for me, I’m goin out like Tony.
Now I don’t want no problems, I just want my money.
Ain’t gotta hold no conversation or my luggage,
Tell whoever’s countin’ that I’m on a hundred.
Birdman Jr., more like Ugly Duckling

Update: Lil Wayne’s is now suing Birdman for $51 million.
