Birdman recently had an online conversation with Gregory “Geedy P” Earls, where he cleared up some confusion about what went down at this year’s ESSENCE Fest in New Orleans with Cash Money Records.
The #1 Stunna addressed the rumors, confirming that he never dissed Lil Wayne during his set. Baby also revealed that they always knew Weezy would have his own set rather than joining him, Juvenile, Mannie Fresh, and B.G. on stage.
“I seen n*ggas was talking about: ‘Wayne ain’t wanna do this and do that.’ Wayne wasn’t even gonna do ESSENCE. I called my son and asked him to do it because I was doing Birdman & Friends. He did it ’cause I asked him.”
“We always knew that Wayne was gonna have his own set. Because me and Juvie, and Geezy and Fresh, we rehearsed together every day and we had our own set together. But we all knew that Wayne was gonna have his own set. He was only a surprise guest. He had done ESSENCE two years in a row and he turned them down personally, and I asked him would he do it for me, and he did it for me. Shout out to my son Weezy, man.”
“I ain’t got the heart to say nothing negative about Wayne. I love my son, man. That wasn’t what that was about. What I meant by that is I ain’t gonna let this game play me. The game done played a lot of n*ggas. I ain’t never gonna be a p*ssy-ass n*gga to this industry and let them play me. I ain’t built like that and I ain’t gonna let my city down by being a p*ssy-ass n*gga.”
