It's almost been a week since Weezy dropped Sorry 4 The Wait 2, shaking up the internets and having stans everywhere claiming Tunechi's back (Tunechi claimed it too). It's a solid compilation of freestyles, with Wayne slaughtering some of the biggest beats from 2014, and although we could very well be sick of most of these instrumentals at this point, somehow Wayne breathes new life into them.
While listening to the tape, you probably noticed two things off the bat. First, Wayne apologizes way too much. Second, Wayne sends shots at Cash Money throughout the tape, not shying from letting fans know he (still) most definitely wants out of his contract. He's called himself a prisoner of Birdman's label in the past, and he makes that reference again on the mixtape, not to mention the artwork has his hand in a pair of cuffs.
We may not know what went wrong between the once father-and-son pair, but we can aggregate all the slights directed towards Baby. Take a look through.
"CoCo"
Weezy F starts off the mixtape strong, tackling "CoCo" and flipping the hook to say "I'm sorry for the wait." He doesn't hesitate to reference the Cash Money situation off the bat. His intro on this track basically calls Birdman and his Cash Money counterparts snakes. Not to worry, Wayne gon' be alright.
"The garden's full of snakes so I had to escape
Lil homie gon' be straight, lil' homie gon' be straight"
"CoCo"
"CoCo" has the most Cash Money references than any song on the tape. It really sets the tone. He's setting you up to keep it on your mind for the rest of the project-- he doesn't fuck with Cash Money, and neither should you. Instead of being "Birdman Jr," how we might think of Wayne in the past, he calls himself the "ugly duckling" of the family, and we all know how that story turned out.
"Who kept this shit together? Nigga, me, that's who
Who was there when niggas left us? Nigga, me, that's who
Cash Money is an army, I'm a one man army
And if them niggas comin' for me, I'm goin' out like Tony
Now I don't want no problems, I just want my money
Ain't gotta hold no conversation or my luggage
Tell whoever's countin' that I'm on a hundred
Birdman Jr., more like Ugly Duckling"
"CoCo"
Yet another shot at his Cash Money chains on the bridge in "CoCo," when Weezy declares,
"I'm sippin' lean out a glass, nigga
All I got is Young Money, no more Cash, nigga"
"CoCo"
Finally, in the second hook on "CoCo" Weezy references the story of the two brothers Cain and Abel (which ended with Cain killing Abel...Hmmm).
"No more am I my brother's keeper, Cain and Abel
Young Money sharp, I'm still eatin', I just chipped my tooth"
"Sh!t"
Second song in, and yup, more Cash Money references. This time he refers to his label as a prison (we've heard that analogy before).
"Did my time in Cash Money, time served and released
But this agent ain't free, word, that's the word on these streets
But that shit is old news, that shit is so yesterweek"
"Trap House"
On the third track, Weezy F big ups his investment in Young Money, and claims it's doing better than Cash Money. Probably accurate, he does have Nicki and Drake.
"Young Money was my best investment
Going harder than my predecessor"
"Hot Nigga"
Weezy goes a few tracks without making CM drop (although he does say "sorry for the wait" excessively). However at the end of "Hot Nigga" he reminds us that it's -just- YM. In case we weren't sure.
"Yeah, got me on my Young Money shit
No Cash Money, just Young Money shit
Woah, got me on my Young Money shit"
"U Guessed It"
Weezy refers to his business with Cash Money as a marriage, and says they got divorced on "U Guessed It." He ain't got no worries though, and says CM will go under without him. Then he basically says, "K CYA!"
"My CMB days are dead, I ain't worried about ghost
I married the MOB, we divorced
And all that shit dead with out me of course
It's nothing, a zombie, a corpse
You burnt yourself and was suppose to pass me the torch
Fuck it, I'll see you in Forbes nigga"
