Here’s the problem with celebrity exposure. It opens you up for anyone (who wants to…) to say anything and supposedly you’re just supposed to make money and ignore them. Well Baby has had enough (especially if he feels you making a mockery of his name is putting bread in your pocket. You getting points off him but he can’t get any points off you… #ItDontWorkThatWay). So Birdman sat down with Hot97NY (Ebro and Laura) and set some things straight… #GreatInterview
Birdman comes off not just intelligent, but unapologetically street intelligent (which seems to be a problem to certain parts of urban culture. Usually the ones, who want to charge you to sound intelligent for you or worse, want to charge you to make you sound intelligent. Some real W.E. Dubois sh*t…) and Birdman makes it clear he is gonna be Birdman.
When you’re successful the rumors can be crazy (many time by disgruntled or unsatisfied people involved in a situation…). Birdman brought up a real valid point in this interview, He’s a gambler (which is something that the professional intelligencia hates or at best just don’t understand). Birdman being a gambler really feels (as most gamblers do), if you don’t put up no dough, you can’t make no bread (a real gamblers creed…). To cats like Birdman you gotta hunt to eat at the big table (a lot folks have a hard time with this value perspective…). I’ve never heard an artist tell the label “I’ll pay you back the money you lost developing me…” Usually they just complain if it wins and they feel like they came up short. Birdman probably just ignores people who feel entitled because he had to go take his and expect them to follow suit.
Great interview make sure you give it a view.
