Mack 10 Finally EXPOSES How Birdman
Origins of a Hip-Hop Association
Mack 10 revealed how Birdman and Lil Wayne’s Blood affiliation began,
sharing new context in a Nation of Podcastation interview.
He said his move to Cash Money Records in the early
2000s introduced West Coast culture during a key expansion period.
Cultural Integration at Cash Money
Describing the transition, Mack 10 said it “was pretty normal,” adding, “If you come from Cali,
wherever you go… it’s pretty normal. Fit right in.”
He framed the shift as organic rather than performative.
Business, Not Just Image
After losing major artists, Cash Money sought a bold move.
“They went and signed the Biggest Blood,” the host summarized.
Mack 10 stressed the bond wasn’t about gangs: “It wasn’t about that… we all had the same goal.”
Respect and Legacy
He defended Birdman—“I don’t have no horror stories, bro”—
and praised Lil Wayne as “the most influential rapper probably ever,” highlighting lasting cultural impact.
