Recently, **Birdman** has made headlines by publicly expressing his support for **Lil Wayne**, **Nicki Minaj**, and **Drake**, announcing his intentions to confront Roc Nation. This action comes on the heels of **Nicki Minaj** defending **Lil Wayne** with critical comments directed at Jay-Z and Roc Nation earlier in the week.
The tension is accentuated by the fact that Kendrick Lamar, known for his track “Not Like Us” which criticizes Drake, is scheduled to perform at the Super Bowl LIX halftime show in New Orleans. Given that New Orleans is the founding city of Cash Money Records, a pivotal label in rap history, there’s been a buzz around the choice of performer. Notable personalities like **Master P**, **Boosie Badazz**, and **Akademiks** have voiced their opinion that the halftime performance should feature **Lil Wayne**, citing the local connection.
**Birdman** responded to the situation by vowing to champion his artists and uphold the prestige of Cash Money Records. He stated his commitment to ensuring Roc Nation respects their collective, referencing his dedication to his late mother, Gladys, in his affirmation.
For enthusiasts of local rap, the upcoming Lil Weezyana Fest is shaping up to be a critical event. It promises a reunion of the Hot Boy, which will certainly be a highlight for attendees eager to delve into the vibrant New Orleans rap scene.
**Kendrick Lamar** is poised to headline the Super Bowl LIX halftime show at the Caesars Superdome in February, promising a grand show of music and talent amidst the continuing discussions about the appropriateness of the halftime performer choice.
In essence, **Birdman**’s decisive step to protect his artists and their label’s heritage has intensified the existing rivalry between Cash Money Records and Roc Nation, setting the stage for an ongoing conflict with both entities standing their ground firmly.
