When an 8 year old Lil Wayne rapped for legendary producer Birdman in a record store in 1990, it started a decades long, multi-million dollar business partnership, and brought them as close as father and son. But years after Lil Wayne had signed to Birdman’s Cash Money Records, Lil Wayne sued Birdman and Cash Money Records, accused Birdman of thievery, and terminated all the love. But how did this father-figure and-son power duo become rivals? And how did money and power play into one of rap’s biggest showdowns?
