Manny Fresh on How Cash Money Killed His Def Jam Deal


In a recent interview former Cash Money producer Manny Fresh gives insight into just how deep the bad blood between he and Cash Money runs...

Manny says when Jay Z was president of Def Jam, Jay reached out to him with a record deal contingent on him bringing in a big record. So, Manny did a song with Lil Wayne but before he could release it Cash Money shut it down, saying he didn't get permission. Manny was like, "But Wayne did the track. I got permission from Wayne!?" And Baby told him, "Wayne don't speak for Wayne. I speak for Wayne."
