Lil Wayne signs $150 million record deal?
Lil Wayne might have 150 million new reasons to celebrate.
It’s been speculated that the rap star just signed a $150 million, 4-album deal to re-up with Cash Money Records.
While his label boss Bryan “Birdman” Williams wouldn’t confirm the official sum, he did tell MTV Monday that “it’s probably the biggest deal ever in urban music.”
“I’m blessed to even do that,” Birdman said of the rumored astronomical figure he paid to keep Wayne, who signed to Cash Money when he was just a kid. “Whatever my son want, he can get. It’s all his anyway, so it don’t really matter to me.”
Without Wayne, the Young Money/Cash Money empire doesn’t exist, Birdman added of the rapper’s central position.
Wayne himself referenced his long-standing relationship with the label on an episode of MTV’s “Hip Hop POV” a few weeks back.
“Everybody knows I came into the game at 11 years old with Cash Money Records, before we even had a major deal,” he said of his new contractual situation. “We signed a deal in I don’t remember when, and I been with Cash Money ever since. So, if you’re looking for integrity, I am the definition. If you’re looking for a person that’s gonna stay down, I am the definition. If you’re looking for loyalty, I am just that.”
Looks like the new deal comes at just the right time: Birdman recently told XXL magazine that Cash Money is headed to Hollywood.
He’s apparently looking to launch his Cash Money Films project with a movie starring his entire YMCMB squad, including Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, Busta Rhymes and Limp Bizkit. The title of the forthcoming project is appropriately titled, “Rich Gang.”

Nicki Minaj Explains Leaving Twitter, Meaning Of "Beez In The Trap"
Curiosity about Nicki Minaj abandoning Twitter has apparently caught on overseas, as the Young Money rapper broached the subject on a British talk show.
"A voice in my head told me to delete Twitter, and that's what I did," explained Nicki on "The Graham Norton Show."
When asked who her 11 million followers will follow now, Nicki replied, "I hope they'll wait for me," seemingly implying that she would return to the wildly popular social networking platform."I know they will."
Nicki also discussed her song, "Beez In The Trap."  "It just means, 'I am always...' you know, that's our slang way of saying, 'I beez doing such-and-such-and-such.' So it's really like, 'I am always in the trap.' Now, the trap, ladies and gentlemen, relates to anywhere where you get your money."

Mystikal Headed Back to Jail
It seems Mystikal just can't get it right.
The recent Cash Money signee, who was released from state prison in 2012 after serving six years for sexual battery and extortion, will be returning to jail May 14 for three months, according to the Associated Press. This time, for violating his five-year probation following an arrest for domestic abuse.
On Monday (April 16), state District Judge Tony Marabella imposed the time on the New Orleans rapper, born Michael Tyler, 41, for the arrest back February on a misdemeanor charge of domestic abuse battery. The five-probation is a result of the extortion case, and called for him to remain arrest and conviction-fee.
Mystikal's attorney said although the rhymeslinger was ordered to spend another 90 days in jail, judge Marabella is giving him credit for the nine days he was detained after his February 22 arrest.
In related news, Mystikal recently chopped it up with XXLMag.com about his upcoming YMCMB debut and what it's like working with Cash Money vs. No Limit.
"It's coming out this year," the MC said about the project. "Original is gonna be the title. When Stunna came up with the title for that song, that **** fitted, man. This [is] where that **** came from, as far as being from New Orleans. We the founders of that music, that rap game."
As far as the difference between his former label home and the present one, Mystikal said there isn't much difference, stating, "The times are different, first of all. It's like oranges and apples. The formula is still the same. It's the Take Over The World formula and Don't Give A **** Show them what it is, don't tell them. It's just on another level. This is a new day and a new time for real."
Nicki Minaj Launching Perfume This Fall
Nicki Minaj** will be the latest pop start to hit the fragrance market, according to WWD.
The "Beez in the Trap" rapper will debut her scene this fall, with help from Give Back Brands LLC, who also worked on Justin Bieber**'s fragrance, "Someday."
"I have always been a huge fan of great fragrances," Minaj said. "This is yet another extension of my creative expression and I can't wait to share it with the world. I designed this scent and bottle with my Barbz in mind; I know they will love it!"
Her scent will join recent offerings from Rihanna** and "Give Me All Your Luvin'" partner Madonna**, among others, with a scent from Lady Gaga** also expected later this year.
If her record sales are any indication, Minaj's latest venture should be another hit with her Barbz: sophomore album "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" bowed at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 last week, moving 253,000 copies.

Did Lil Wayne Really Just Get Engaged?!
Do we hear wedding bells for Lil Wayne and girlfriend Dhea?
It certainly looks like the "Lollipop" rapper popped some kind of question to her, and her affirmative response got Weezy's fans all goosed up.
Early this morning, he cryptically tweeted, "She said yes!"
Time for Weezy to bust out the tuxedo? Don't raise your glasses to the couple just yet because…
Wayne actually asked her to be his valentine. (Buzzkill!)
Word of his tweet must've spread fast, because he followed that up with another one several hours later to clear things up.
"I meant 'she said yes' to being my valentine!!! Hahahahahahaha! Y'all krazy!" he tweeted.
OK, so it wasn't the question. But apparently, during the course of the evening, a ring did make an appearance.
the couple were spotted dining at a Miami restaurant last night, and Wayne discreetly handed a large ring to the restaurant's servers. He then asked them to slip it into Dhea's dessert, a mammoth sundae with several scoops of ice cream.As the dessert was delivered to their table, he reportedly jumped up and screamed, "She said yes!"
Perhaps this might provide a fun epilogue to that book he was planning to write?
