Today:
Complex - T-shirts featuring his interview quotes are for sale on the official Cash Money website. Four different styles, which are printed with things like “Finish or you done” and “I ain’t gonna say it no mo,” are available in an assortment of colors for $30 each. There is also a selection off hoodies for $50 a piece.
Let me ask you something – when he said “Birdman daddy, I’m fly in any weather,” did you think he was joking? Birdman can turn a pile of manure into a mountain of gold. Go on the Breakfast Club and play yourself and bingo bango you got yourself an entire new line of Cash Money Merch. Literally every word he yelled in his Breakfast Club rant was immediately slapped onto clothing and put up for sale. Such a Portnoy move its amazing. We weaponize social media? Thats a t shirt. Oh you like pizza? Thats a t shirt. Hank with a Uncle Sam hat on? T shirt. If theres one thing the real business savvy minds of this world have come to understand, its that people love dumb ass t shirts. I want a Put Some Respeck On My Name shit so fucking bad. I might ask Welker to make one for me. Hell, we might even sell these, get sued by Birdman, and then make t shirts that say “Barstool got sued by Birdman” because those will probably sell too. That just how the t shirt game goes.
I love how even the less memorable lines are for sale. Like “Put Some Respeck On My Name” is an all time line. That will be used on memes and twitter and all of the internet literally forever. But like, “All Ya’ll?” Is anyone gonna see a shirt that says all ya’ll and assume thats the time Birdman said “all ya’ll” to the Breakfast Club? Whatever, its genius either way. T shirts rule the world and I aint gonna say it no mo. Finish or you done.
