A Complete Timeline Of Lil Wayne & Birdman's Beef

Taking a chronological look at Lil Wayne and Birdman's ongoing beef.


Even as little as nine months ago, no one would have really expected Birdman and Lil Wayne to beef. The two Cash Money titans had a bond that seemed more powerful than your run-of-the-mill rapper/CEO relationship, with their father/son dynamic even birthing an album of its own earlier in the 2000s, and a sense of loyalty that seemed out-of-character for Birdman, at least when you considered his relationships with other Cash Money artists. But what began as a label-related rift between them has now spiraled into a situation that includes delayed albums, multi-million dollar suits, and most recently, an alleged murder plot.
How did we get here? That's a difficult question, and one that requires some close monitoring-- not just Wayne and Birdman, but everyone from Rich Homie Quan to The Game-- in the past few months. Dragging in nearly everyone tangentially related to either artist, this beef is one for the books, and will probably get a chapter to itself in future hip hop history books.
We've traced every story that's been pertinent to this conflict, and listed them chronologically below, giving you a complete (if a little confusing) timeline of Lil Wayne and Birdman's ongoing beef.

But what does he know, right?
2/21 - Turk sues Cash Money

This is where the conflict between Weezy and Thugger gets interesting/confusing.

And the trolling begins.
4/13 - Thug changes album's name to "Barter 6"

4/20 - Rich Homie Quan says he was "hurt" by "Bitch Homie Quan" comment
4/26 - Wayne's tour bus attacked outside of Atlanta / Thug booed at release party

5/6 - The Game enters the fray, dissing Young Thug and siding with Wayne
Game plays his usual card of entering a beef that doesn't involve him.
5/7 - Game and Thug squash beef
And as quickly as it started, it's over.
5/27 - Thug says next mixtape will be titled "Carter V"
5/29 - Suspect in bus shooting linked to Thug
6/2 - Suspect turns himself in
Jimmy Carlton Winfrey charged with "aggravated assault, terroristic threats, possession of a firearm by a felon, and criminal gang activity."
6/3 - Wayne releases "Glory" on Tidal, announces he's a co-owner

7/16 - Birdman sues Tidal over "FWA"

Thug's former Rich Gang compatriot Quan added another layer of confusing label politics on top of this mess by showing to a studio session with Weezy. Perhaps to record a "Grindin" remix?

Does he have a private Jet? See Top 10 facts about the Pastor Kumuyi you did not know (Photos)

Image
Nowadays, owning private jets is the new trend for Nigerian pastors. It is so rampant that we have to wonder if Jesus would agree to have one if he was in the shoes of these same pastors today. Here we will try to find out whether William Kumuyi has his own luxurious vessel or not. This would be interesting. Famous Pastors like Ayo Oritsejafor, Bishop David Oyedepo, Enoch Adeboye and Pastor T.B. Joshua are Nigerian pastors that have already been reported to have private jets. Various arguments have been put forward for and against the issue of procurement of a N4 billion aircraft by the General Superintendent of the Deeper Life church. Recently Pastor Kumuyi was called one of the 500 most influential people on the planet apparently owing to his reach in Christendom via his mega church. Pastor Kumuyi is arguably a bigger preacher and pastor than most of the jet-setting pastors, but it is not clear yet if he owns one. What is certain is that he lives a little below the radar...
