If worked right, this merge could be HUGE! Last week while Baby and Lil Wayne paid a visit to a Manhattan courthouse for Wayne’s gun case (he’ll be sentenced Feb. 9th), they also paid visit to Warner Music Group’s HQ’s.
Details are extremely sketchy at this point, but an EXTREMELY reliable source confirmed with me that a “secret secret hush hush* meeting occurred with several major big wigs from both parties (Oh hi Lyor Cohen & Brian Williams).
While nothing’s been solidified in regards to logistics to this ground breaking venture, possibilities of future collaborations and ish of that nature are hatching as we speak. A merger of the sort could combine the forces of every conglomerate under the respective umbrellas of WMG and Cash Money Records.
This includes Atlantic Records Group (Lupe’s 1st & 15th Entertainment, T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records, Maino’s Hustle Hard imprint) Warner Brothers Records Inc (Asylum Records- Gucci Mane lives here, Warner Bros. Records, Blacksmith Records) and a bevy of other imprints.
And then you have to think of all the subsidiary labels under those major labels. Get my drift?
A quick note before I get out of here: Gee Roberson (the founder of the management empire, Hip Hop Since 1978) co-manages Lil Wayne and Drake- two actives players under the Cash Money/Young Money umbrella.
Gee also still serves as the president under Atlantic Records’ Urban Division. Put the pieces together, enjoy some egg nog and let’s merge some theories of what this could turn into for 2010. Cool?
Props to BET.

FUCK!!! ALL THAT FIRST AND SECOND SHIT TALK ABOUT CMB AND WMG…MAN IF THAT HAPPENS NOBODY SHOULD RAP NO MORE THEY ALREADY TOOK OVER HIPHOP(TALKEN BOUT CMB YM)JUS THINK BOUT IT.AND READ THE OTHER BIG NAME RAPPERS AND TELL ME IF IM RIGHT YM CMB SAULTE.
nooo thts fukkin gay i like the way it is rite now no drastic changes shit!!!!
yeah im wit this micheal watts dude. if this merge happens young money will have a monopoly of hip hop. they’ll own like EVERYTHING. they got beef wit sumbody they’d have the power 2 just terminate their record deal and just destroy their career. i personally wouldnt trust sum body im competing with with that much power. just my opinion.
son that move would be major cuz warner is way less corporate than universal…nd way bigger…universal always tries to dampen their artists albums to appeal to the mainstream but i think warner would just let wayne nd baby do wat they want…that means less push backs on Wayne’s albums lls.

Wow FUUUCK NO! Cash Money and Young Money are royal freaking labels! Why would they ever think of doing that? Whats Lil’ Wayne gonna say now? “Warner Bros!” instead of “Young Money!” or is he going to come out with a new CD called “We Are Warner Bros”. FUUUCK THAT. YOUNG MOOLAH BABAY! LIL WAYNE IS BEST RAPPER ALIVE!
if it happens wayne will have more power to take of pussies like 50 for example
heck no whoever said dat bull**** is hella stupid.
I hope they keep like it is. Right now it’s perfect for real! Of course Baby and Wayne are just thinkin about their paper, so I wouldn’t blame them lol. But it would make for some fuckin’ great colabs
i love yu wayne
