Birdman & Lil Wayne Reunite To Celebrate Cash Money Anniversary At YouTube Gala
It’s no secret that Birdman and Lil Wayne have had their fair share of ups and downs, but recently, the duo linked up for YouTube’s annual Leaders & Legends Gala. The event took place in Los Angeles earlier this week, and Cash Money was honored with an award. Birdman accepted it just in time for Cash Money’s 30th anniversary, along with co-founder Ronald “Slim” Williams. Of course, several artists from the label’s roster were in attendance.
Mannie Fresh, Yo Gotti, Juvenile, Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith, and more joined the celebration. Birdman took to Instagram to share a fun photo from the evening, which shows him standing next to Weezy, Yo Gotti, and Mack Maine. “A movie @cashmoneyofficial #RICHGANG,” he captioned the post. “YMCMB [goat emoji] STUNNAMAN.”
