Lil Wayne
Lil Wayne has grown from a 9-year-old member of Cash Money, to the multi-platinum, multi-millionaire, entrepreneur/ executive he is today.
While the “son” of Bryan “Birdman” Williams remained a staple in the Cash Money army for years, the world was unaware of this music icon in the making until 2004’s The Carter where he made the now-infamous claim that he was the “best rapper alive.”
A number of people agree and proved it, by helping 2008’s Tha Carter III move over 1 million copies in its first week.
Although currently incarcerated at Rikers Island Correctional Facility for federal weapons charges, Lil Wayne’s makeover from Cash Money to comrade to Young Money CEO who made an estimated $20 million last year has been one of the best yet.
