11 Cash Money Hopefuls Whose Albums Never Materialized

Cash Money’s run began humbly and locally, but has since accelerated to impressive heights, owning radio and possessing a roster that is unparalleled in this industry. Lil Wayne skyrocketed the label and has been a key talent scout and A&R, recruiting the likes of Nicki Minaj, DJ Khaled and Drake. Cash Money Records as a subsidiary of Universal is considered one of the leading power player record companies in this industry. On the outside, signing with Cash Money appears to be a champion move, however, with so many major artists on one label, some of the more camouflaged artists receive scarce promotion and are unceremoniously relegated to backing up the stars of the catalog.

Recently, Tyga’s outbursts about the lack of support from Cash Money made waves on the web and began a drastically different but all too familiar dialogue around the superstar record company. This isn’t the first time Cash Money has been accused of mismanagement, financially or otherwise. So as Tyga blasted the YMCMB camp, igniting a war of words by also dissing his labelmates Drake and Nicki Minaj in follow-up interviews, it drudged up more than a few old memories of artists past who also fell down the Cash Money rabbit hole.

Plus, after the public display from Tyga, Lil Twist began to express his frustrations with his Young Money management as well, and that’s not to mention the cold Instagram and Twitter war Tyga and Drake have been engaged in over the past few weeks. With trouble happening in Cash Money’s assumed paradise, HipHopDx took a look at the many artists signed to Cash Money whose albums just never managed to see the light of day. Who knows if Tyga and Lil Twist will be next, but just like the heartbreak hotel, there always seems to be room for one more in the Cash Money album graveyard.

Yeah but Cash Money has been putting out shitty music since Wayne signed Nicki Minaj and Drake... So this doesn't really matter/compare to Shady Records.

Singin' "Bagpipes from Baghdad" again
In my dad's drag draggin' a faggot in a Glad bag
Won't be the last time I make a dramatic entrance like that again
You thought I was lyin' when I said I think that I'm crossin' the line again
I've lost my mind, caution oh God I think I've just thought of another fucking line
Forgive me father, for I have sinned
But hip hop has left me brainwashed with a violent streak

They sign rappers straight out of impoverished hoods as tax write-offs. Yet they still make money from the two biggest rappers in the world.


thats what Eminem did with Slaughterhouse

Do you know what runnin the game means?

Sure TDE have more credibility, but nothing will beat the steam train that is Cash Money in terms of popularity.
