Ever since 2009, Birdman has been challenging Jay-Z, warranting no response. First, he said Jay-Z did not deserve an award for The Blueprint 3. He felt his "son," Lil Wayne's Tha Carter III, was a better album.

Jay-Z is known for being the ultimate rap businessman. Many rappers have modeled their business skills after Jay-Z. Birdman had something to say about that, too. For over a year, he has claimed he has more money than Jay-Z.

After letting these slight jabs pass for nearly two years, Jay-Z decided to respond. When he teamed up with Kanye West, Jay-Z saw a wide open opportunity to put the "best rapper alive" and his "father" in their respective places. On the "H.A.M." song, Jay-Z called them out over their "baby money"

Birdman denied having any beef with Jay-Z and said he would continue to spend his "baby money." He recently added that he has several business ventures going with Cash Money, he owns several cars, and he has money stashed away. While he many not have as much money as Jay-Z, Birdman does have money, some call it "baby money," but he calls it Cash Money.
