BIRDMAN SPEAKS ON COMMON & DRAKE BEEF "WE RIDE OR DIE"

Cash Money Records CEO Birdman has stepped up to discuss the current beef brewing between Young Money's Drake and rap veteran Common and said there will be no diss records from his team. While Birdman downplayed the artists' feud, he did say Cash Money is fully behind Drizzy. "Drake the homie so we ride or die. Ain't no second questions about that, but we never been a brand to make records and want to make money off of making records of other people that's not what we about," Birdman told radio host Big Boy. "So to me, however the young homie deal with it we behind him, we supporting him 100 percent with our life so that's just what it is. Ain't no other way. Drake the lil' homie that's blood, that's family, and ain't no siding with that. It's Drake or nothing." (Power 106)
