Fuck Harvey Levin and anybody that loves his celebrity news website. First you prematurely pronounce the impending death of Lil Wayne (Weezy Forgives. We Don't.) and then you try to link the horrific actions of one of the Boston Marathon culprits to our culture? "DEAD BOMBING SUSPECT: HEAVY INTO HIP HOP" You don't say? It's 2013 and most kids are into rap music. We've been penetrated pop culture, you cock suckers. "What's interesting... hip-hop lyrics are notoriously violent and often degrading to women." So our music is at fault in this tragedy? Let's be clear the only bombs my culture cosigns is DJ Funkmaster Flex's sound effects. Thirty Mile Zone is prone to post anything to get traffic. Fuck dude and his coffee cup. Get you a Rap Radar cup and drink with us in the winner's circle.
Oh Miguel. Leg droppin your fans? You ain't Hulk Hogan and that wasn't part of the program. That's no way to treat the adoring ladies, brother.
Cash Money’s an army—and is still getting bigger. Last night, Tunechi called into NY’s 98.7 KISS FM and revealed Fred Durst’s band is the latest addition. He also hints a deal with Ashanti is almost finalized. Bananas!

Lenny Green Classic New York Radio …cant front on that
Limp Bizkit are finished.
I agree with Vodka, I don’t understand the economics of signing has beens…plus Cash Money has never been the type of label to release multiple artists per months. I’m hoping for the best…
LMFAO
Whats the deal with labels signing old has beens. Mystikal, Juicy J, and now Limp Bizkit?
Has beens? Busta’s a has been? Ashanti’s a has been? Do u hear how u guys sound. So I guess if Rakim wanted to drop an album he’d be a has been too right? Smh, these ppl still have fan bases. A few hundred thousand copies pushed is a good way to make a living on top of touring and doing shows. What else is their for a musician to do but make music. Not everyone in the game is JayZ
smh damn buss…
Why don’t they sign young artists instead of all these wasted talent dudes???
SMH…
wow next there going to sign bobby brown
yea kill bobby brown
pause [II] @ that photo
Co-sign DONN
oh shit ymcmb just signed das efx and shabba ranks
You look at that photo and tell me these are not has beens…
Co sign Donn(smh) this is a good move for all involved especially when you consider the same kids buying Lil Wayne albums would be the same kids buying Limp bizkit records 10 years ago
Yeah I agree with Donn. Just because your not on the radio or aren’t on TV doesn’t mean you aren’t making a good living making and performing music. Which none of that applies to these acts because they still have dedicated fan bases, tour and sell hundreds of thousands of records.
LIL WAYNE IS ONE OF THE WORST POP-RAPPERS OF ALL TIME!
LIMP BIZKIT IS ONE OF THE WORST POP-ROCK BANDS OF ALL TIME!
NAH MEAN?
WHERE ARE THEY NOW?
what is this 98?
Limp Bizkit has been finished since Eminem ended their career
Don’t be so sure. They probably have a plan. Think about it, if Lil Wayne hadn’t of come up the way he did Cash Money would be in the same situation as Limp Bizkit is now.
Weezy got himself a new rock n roll ghost writer
Has beens
limp bizkit is a bunch of pussys .
@Donn: If you think Mystikal and Ashanti arent has beens then you’re out of your mind. Rakim consistenly comes out with music, so does Busta. Last time i heard Mystikal and ashanti was like 12 years ago.
OMG… This can’t be real… Really?
Limp Bizkit? I’m not even when Say this is yet another money pit. Now Travis Barker & Blink 182 that’s a deal. I’m sorry but I don’t say this much & honestly it’s not me but Limp Bizkit is WASHED UP! I’ll eat my words if I’m wrong, but they have that Rudolph dude that actually popped off & now what????
Hip hop fans generally make way bigger deals out of random signings than is warranted. Rap fans are used to looking at labels as “crews”. Little rap imprints that last maybe 4 or 5 years then disappear once their run is over. Cash Money, nearly two decades in the game, has long since moved passed that however. Although they’re a privately owned independent label, they’re arguably the peers of any major label in the business today. They’re dominating the industry on par with outfits like Interscope and Island Def Jam, just take a look at the Billboard Hot 100 Chart and look at how many placements YMCMB have.
I say that to say this, the moment you start looking at Cash Money for what it is now…a dominant proper label in this industry…is the moment things like this make sense. Had Limp Bizkit signed to some random division of Sony or Interscope, no one would blink an eye. Labels typically sign dozens of acts every year. If they garner a buzz they get a release date and an album. If not, any money spent on them can be considered a business expense and wrote off in tax breaks.
LMAO! im just gonna laugh at that….
Slipknot would eat them.
They’ll probably be able to sell about as many records as Yelawolf did for the new and improved Shady Records 2.0 hahaha
Nice. Good for Limp Bizkit and Cash Money. I think Fred Durst is a lot smarter than a lot of people give him credit for. Go out and watch the film The Education of Charlie Banks, which Durst directed.
I’m suprised that Kiss FM allowed this interview to happen and that Wayne is promiting a “rock act” on an r&b program
Ridiculous…….. fuck i hate this shit
lmao ymcmb are signing anybody right now… kinda crazy
Who sells more:
Flabby and sick “has beens” Limp Bizkit
or
boring Life long “never was’s” Slaughter House?
yes i fucking love it, limp bizkit are rap-rock-metal ledgends and this is going to be huge!
You a fool if you cant see the potential millions in this signing. Cash Money is now an equivalent of Def Jam Records… “talking about baby money, i got your baby money”. Jay Z is being taken out with Stunna, i know they also signed Ashanti to come after Beyonce’s fanbase… damn
I used to question YMCMB signing until Tyga’s album came out.. these niggas develop artist for real. Now Tyga finna looking like a don, his growth shocked me.
hahahahaha
JA RULE GETTING SIGNED NEXT THEN LOTTO FROM 8 MILE
Late Breaking News: Cash Money just signed the “Who U Finna Try” dude to a 10 album deal
I think what birdamn is doing is great. The more artist you sign the more artist that could potentially pop off..doesn’t mean all the artist on the label are gonna drop albums but your giving everyone in opportunity
OMG DAWG. These niggas is taking over the world with this shit. DAMN!
Are they serious with this? Answer this question: where is Jae Millz? *sips juice*
And Fred Durst is still claiming he’s not a sell-out, lol!
Fuck yeah Limp Bizkit rules!!
he still alive?
You Do Know Whenever You Sign a Contract Your Giving At Least a Mill Upfront As a Signing Bonus..
For people saying limp bizkit are not has beens: in 2000 they sold a million in one week. In 2011 they dropped an album and sold 60,000 copies. If that doesn’t scream has been, I’m not sure what would. Limp bizkit is dead, and this was a terrible business move.
Cash Money is now the powerhouse of hip hop. And If Eminem signed Slaughterhouse.. niggas who cant even move 30k units, then this surely isnt a bad investment. Remember the money is off tour… so Stunna puts him on tour, the label is straight.
You need to be business savvy to understand the label signings.Its all about the bottom line(net income). You dont need to be hot like Adele to get signed, damn these dummies!!! Just a following behind you is enough to spark a dollar, be it on tour, features and guest event appearances. There already have Lil Wayne Drake and Nicki for a huge pull… these are just acts to get more fans and money. Read a book please, im a business student and i did a case study on Music Business.
