Birdman has finally set the record straight in a recent live stream, addressing the separate performances of Lil Wayne and the Hot Boys at Essence Fest and shutting down rumors about his jewelry. The Cash Money mogul took the opportunity to clear the air on these hot topics, while also taking a jab at Rick Ross.

Birdman began by tackling the confusion surrounding the Essence Fest performances of Lil Wayne and the Hot Boys. Fans had anticipated a full-blown Hot Boys reunion, but Birdman clarified that Lil Wayne’s solo set was always part of the plan.
“People were saying ‘Wayne won’t do this and that,’” Birdman explained. “Wayne wasn’t even going to do Essence. I called him and asked because I was doing Birdman and Friends, and he did it. I asked him to do it right.”
Birdman emphasized that Wayne’s separate set was pre-planned. “We always knew that Wayne was going to have his own set. Me, Juvie [Juvenile], Geezy [B.G.], and Fresh [Mannie Fresh] rehearsed together every day and had our own set, but Wayne’s solo performance was part of the plan.”
He also gave a shout-out to artists like 2 Chainz and Bun B, who performed alongside the Hot Boys members at the festival.
The live stream took a sharp turn when Birdman addressed Rick Ross’ allegations about him wearing fake jewelry. These claims stem from Ross’ track “Idols Become Rivals” on his 2017 album Rather You Than Me. Birdman vehemently denied these accusations, sharing insights into his lavish lifestyle from a young age.
“I was 14 years old wearing two Rolexes in NOLA, 15 with 10 cars,” Birdman recounted. “By 16, I had 16 cars and was playing with a few million dollars.”
Birdman fiercely defended his reputation, dismissing Ross’ claims and disowning any association with him. “I’ve never worn fake jewelry. Saying I did is just cap. I haven’t been cool with him for over 20 years.”
He further expressed his disdain, “I ain’t never been no man in my life that wore fake jewelry. That’s just cap talk. You met me in ’96, stopped dealing with one of them in 2000. N****, you don’t know me.”
Birdman’s live stream not only provided clarity on the Essence Fest performances but also served as a platform for him to defend his reputation against Rick Ross’ claims. As he continues to stand firm on his legacy and relationships within the industry, Birdman’s candidness offers a glimpse into the often turbulent world of hip-hop and celebrity
