• Birdman Misses Lil Wayne on Instagram, Wants to Save Young Money

    It's been shocking to watch father-son relationship between Birdman and Lil Wayne collapse right before our eyes, especially with such vitriol.

Those tweets soon turned into a $51 million lawsuit against the label and its CEO Birdman, which, as of now, still hasn't been resolved. Somehow, things got even worse after the lawsuit as a recent indictment naming Birdman as a co-conspirator, along with Young Thug, in a plot to shoot up Wayne's tour bus. Today, finally, it seems Birdman has given his first apology to Wayne -- or, at least, his first attempt at reconciliation.
