Off The Cash Money Trail!

It's no longer Cash Money or Young Money. It's Tunechi.

Lil' Wayne is officially off Cash Money Records. I just heard it earlier on Shade45 with The Affiliates, an Atlanta set of DJs from Hot 107.9 FM.

DJ Drama, Don Cannon and Trendsetter Sense are the hosts of the show. Sarah V is the executive producer of the show.

Disclosure, Sarah V has a child with Lil' Wayne. He has five children.

The folks over at Cash Money Records, Inc. and Universal Republic reached a tentative deal with Weezy. This deal will allow the rapper to make music without owing any obligations to Ronald "Slim" Williams and Bryan "Baby/Birdman" Williams. The deal also grants $10 million but it's undisclosed.
Bryan Williams aka Birdman formally released Lil Wayne from Cash Money Records.
Birdman held tight on the release of Tha Carter V. It was four years ago, Lil' Wayne was openly boasting that Tha Carter was on the way. By the end of the year, it never came out. It was shelved.

The rapper was upset that Birdman was holding the record hostage.

The rapper put a $51 million lawsuit against Cash Money demanding a release from the label. He was caught in legal limbo. He could not do collaboration albums with T-Pain, 2 Chainz, Juelz Santana, Drake and other projects without getting clear from Cash Money.

Birdman released Tyga from Young Money/Cash Money without Weezy's input. He also felt that Birdman was robbing him, Drake, Nicki Minaj and others out of their royalties.

Weezy and Universal have reached an agreement that allows the rapper to remain on the Universal Republic label.

Eventually Drake, Nicki Minaj and Tyga might ask to be formally released from Cash Money as well as Young Money.

Aspire Music Group sued Cash Money and Young Money for royalties as well.

Tha Carter V will be released only on Universal.
