Back when Birdman called Lil Wayne his son and Rick Ross wasn't dragging him all over the internet, he connected with those two artists and Jeezy for the single "100 Million." Released nearly 11 years a go, it was one of the many anthems that came out of the Cash Money camp right before Weezy hit superstar status with Tha Carter III.
"100 Million" came off of Birdman's 5 Star Stunna album back in 2007 which also featured other hits with Weezy such as "I Run This" and "Pop Bottles." Cool & Dre handled the production on the track when they were really handling the majority of hits that were coming out of Miami at the time.
While Birdman's shady business practices have deteriorated a lot of his relationships with some of his closest collaborators from the time, there's no doubt that they dropped a classic hit with "100 Million."
Quotable Lyrics
We ridin' low, gettin' high
80 round drum let you know the time
When you see the Maybach, n*ggas know it's mine
Ridin' on 2-4's, I'm ahead of my time
