During a recent Clubhouse discussion, Birdman revealed that he initially went to J. Prince for a Cash Money distribution deal before making the historic deal with Universal. 

Birdman stated that J. Prince taught him a lot when he first got into the game. He then revealed that J. Prince told him to go elsewhere for a distribution deal because he couldn't do it, which Birdman said made him have a lot more respect for J. Prince. 

This comes after J. Prince posted a photo of him and Birdman meeting up in Utah with NBA YoungBoy in May, where Prince said that he and Birdman "were able to have a real conversation face to face." He added, "We talked about the past, the present, and the future. But most importantly, we left each other with a mutual respect moving forward."
