Talk:Birdman (rapper)

message: I think Birdman and Cash Money's numerous royalty disputes should be included. Starting with Mannie Fresh and Juvenile down too his very high profile disputes with Lil Wayne as of recently.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.125.214.74 (talk) 19:39, 26 December 2014 (UTC)

message: Since there are no comments in this talk page at all, I'll be the first to suggest one way of improving this article. If there were just more sources linked to the article, that alone would dramatically raise the standards of this article. Wbbigtymer 20:40, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Improvements?

message: I just removed a huge amount of unsourced information from this article.  This is the biography of a living person and all information should be reliably sourced.  janejellyroll 01:55, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Pardon me?  This article previously included claims that Bryan Williams has a grill in his mouth worth half a million dollars, that he is the "surrogate father" of Lil Wayne, and that he made $80 million from the sales of his special edition Lugz.  When I searched, I found no documentation of any of these claims.  There was also, more worryingly, accusations of financial misappropriation that were completely unsourced.  My removal of material was completely in line with WP:BLP and any editor is welcome to add it back with appropriate sources.  I'm not sure why you would assume bad faith of my edits. janejellyroll 00:39, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's common knowledge to any fan that's evil slightly familiar with Birdman or Lil Wayne that Birdman is Waynes surrogate father.  They get asked about it all the time in interviews, and they have many songs referencing each other as father/son.  I realize not sourced information is unideal, but when you delete so much it's considered vandalism, not a constructive edit.Zach6688 (talk)  —Preceding undated comment added 05:35, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

message: I put the subject in quotes because I only loosely consider this to be a Biography. A bit about an arrest, and his sister's accident, do not a true biography make.
I suggest simply removing the whole thing, filing those arbitrary bits of information under a Trivia section or something.

message: Yes, he's the business mind behind the whole Cash Money Records. He IS the business mind, heck, he was interviewed for MSNBC's New Black Overclass, his assets are over 400 million, check out MSNBC and Forbes. He also has is own oil business. And it's no accident that when you start writing Bryan W - Bryan Williams (businessman) pops out.
It would seem his business acumen doesn't extend beyond making bird noises. His oil business did provide some crumbs for the wall-street pigeons to pick up though.124.171.60.243 (talk) 12:52, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

message: There is a deletion tag on this article: 
:"100 Million" is the second single from Birdman's third studio album, Five Star General. The track features Young Jeezy, Rick Ross & Lil' Wayne, and was produced by Cool & Dre. "100 Million" has already been added on iTunes.
:A video for the song is already in pre-production, and will be released soon.

message: Good merge procedurally. But not sure that this is the better sourced of the two titles? 18x "rapper Birdman" in GB, maybe 1x but from 2002 and probably not the same person. In ictu oculi (talk) 14:11, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Completely agree. He is not known for acting or anything like that. Mostly his music career and as a C.E.O. Birdman (rapper) should be the title of the article per WP:TITLE. STATic message me! 22:34, 18 December 2012 (UTC)
