Lil Wayne and Birdman
Tour manager, Jimmy Winfrey, has stated in criminal court
documents that Cash Money Records CEO, Birdman, real name Bryan
Williams, commissioned the attempted murder of his top rapper,
Lil Wayne. Winfrey stated in court, “Birdman’s financial dispute
with Lil Wayne is what ultimately led to the shooting…Birdman
should be held liable as a party to the crime."

tour manager.
Birdman has been denying Winfrey's claims. However, new
testimony and evidence keeps surfacing that has repeatedly cast
doubt on his innocence. Birdman is currently in a financial
dispute with Lil Wayne, who sued him for withholding $50,000,000
in royalties, that he has been spending on himself to live
lavishly. Lil Wayne is in financial trouble, as he and his
company, Young Money (an offshoot of Cash Money), are being sued
for millions of dollars by creditors for non-payment of debts.
