Birdman sat down with Ozone mag recently and talked about the goings on…check it out.

He’s seen the rap radar come and leave his New Orleans stomping grounds on more than one occasion. He’s seen his records fly off shelves as well as leak months in advance. He’s been called a joke. He’s been told he simply can’t rap. He’s been accused of being a thief.

But guess what? 18 years later he’s still here and stunting as hard as ever.

With his fourth solo album Priceless in stores now, Birdman could care less what people say about him.
