BIRDMAN SHUTS DOWN 'CAPPIN' GILLIE DA KID OVER LIL WAYNE GHOSTWRITING CLAIMS

Birdman has addressed Gillie Da Kid’s claims about uncredited contributions to music by Lil Wayne, who is often praised for his pen game.

On Sunday (October 8), Wack 100 convinced the Cash Money boss to hop on Clubhouse for a brief chat, during which the latter spoke about his contentious relationship with the podcaster and the rumors he started about writing for Weezy.

“I never put a record out with Gillie,” he said. “I ain’t never made a dollar off Gillie when he be runnin’ around with all that cappin, like, n-gga, I ain’t never made no money off you, n-gga. Stop all that cap-ass talkin’, n-gga. You not like that.”

Setting the record straight, Stunna also added: “And he for sure ain’t never wrote one rhyme for Moolah.”

Gillie responded to Birdman in the comments section of an Akademiks reshare of the clip, writing: “25 yrs later [eight laughing emojis].”

A year ago, Turk shut down Gillie’s claims about assisting Lil Wayne in the mid-2000s while the two were signed to Cash Money Records.

The Hot Boys rapper appeared on Drink Champs last fall to make it clear that the Million Dollaz Worth of Game co-host never penned any tracks for the Young Money mogul while they were labelmates.

“You talking ’bout my lil bro, you wrote for him. You ain’t write for no Lil Wayne, n-gga,” Turk said, directly addressing the camera. “You ain’t write for Lil Wayne and I stand on that. Shawty been doing this shit. You a clout chaser. Now talk about that!”

In the past, Gillie has claimed he ghostwrote multiple records that eventually landed on Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter in 2004.

“I penned a lot of that shit, they had me around there,” Gillie told HipHopDX in 2006. “Stunna gave me $200,000 when I signed. They was so in a rush to get a n-gga into a deal they didn’t do the publishing right there on the spot, they just wanted to get me ink. Soon as they got me ink then they wanted to discuss the publishing.

“Once they didn’t want to give me the money I was asking for, then I knew it was a problem. I had talks and sit-downs with Wayne he didn’t even know what publishing was and shit, so I start seeing what was really going on around here.”

The feud began after Gillie left the imprint and declared that he is a better rapper than Tunechi, following which they went back-and-forth on a series of diss tracks.

In one such drop called “Problem Solver,” Wayne raps: “Gillie man, I don’t think you n-ggas should really fuck with me/ The gun off me urgently workin’ and twerkin’ it perfectly.”
