- He continued, "So they kan be superstars put some respek on my name and stop playin' with me I’m tha best to ever do it nothing but love for all CEO ever in 50yrs of hip hop we held it down cash money rich gang STUNNAMAN tha best ever #THEGOATMAKER I doit do 4MS GLADYS #dont lie @cashmoneyofficial."
- Earlier in the year, Birdman addressed Billboard's list and made similar claims, "Im confused about 50yrs of Hip Hop where they salute legendary artists, which is well respeked also, I think CEOs who kept these artists alive to be great showed them how to keep hip hop alive should be saluted in a major way."
