Tyga shook things up with controversial comments about Young Money and Drake. Now YMCMB's Birdman has opened up about what is going on with the label. In an interview with Funkmaster Flex on Hot 97, Birdman says that he was caught off guard by Tyga's tweets and his comments in VIBE where he said he wants to go independent and doesn't get along with labelmates Nicki Minaj and Drake.
"I didn't see that coming," Birdman admitted. "And still I haven't got to the bottom of none of that." He defended the Canadian rapper saying, "Drake is Drake. There's really no comparison. He in a lane all by himself when it comes to making music. You can't compare nobody to what he do 'cause nobody does what he does."
He says he respects Tyga and that he's still a homie but adds that "Tyga know where he stands in this game compared to Drake. That ain't no secret. Numbers don't lie. He might be in his feelings, and I got all the love and respect for Tyga. That's been like my little bro."
He said that he isn't holding anyone hostage and that Tyga can leave if he wants to.
"I'm family oriented. Either you're in or you're out. If you're out, you're an outcast to me. If you're in, we family. To me, it ain't no on or off switch. Either you with us or you ain't. You gotta choose your side, but I got nothing but respect for Tyga."
He clarifies that Tyga is still with young money, despite releasing the Kanye West-produced "40 Mill" independently.
"I always had a manly respect with him 'cause he showed me he a little man. He went and did what he had to do, and we built what we built together."
That said, he is disappointed that Tyga badmouthed his labelmates.
"I'm not with the dissing. I ain't with none of that sh*t. We one gang. Ain't no separating that. Either you're with it or you ain't. You gotta just choose your side."
