WATCH THE VIDEO HERE 2 Chainz says he once reached out to Birdman to request a Lil Wayne feature, but the Cash Money boss tried to charge him $100,000 just to reach out to the Young Money rapper. “If anybody wanted Wayne, [Birdman] would be like, ‘I need 100 too,’ and people would obviously do it,” the Atlanta rapper told Shannon Sharpe. 2 Chainz revealed he found another way to hit Lil Wayne. He says that he bought Wayne a pair of red Gucci shoes from the Gucci store because “he represents the red team,” meaning the Bloods Gang. “I take them to him at the studio. He don’t know I’m about to take it to him, but I also got a beat CD. And I’m not doing this for the other thing but I just take it to him and he like … ’Damn, these harder than a b—h,”” he continued. He said not long after, Wayne invited him to visit him in Florida. “We go from the airport to the mall because he is trying to I guess show his appreciation for me buying him shoes. Then out the blue, he says, ‘What you thought about the hook I did for you?’”
The rapper had reportedly sent the hook to the wrong email. He said that even though Wayne didn’t charge him for the feature, Birdman still demanded his $100,000, so he paid up.
