Early Life & Education

Birdman was born in the vibrant city of New Orleans, Louisiana, on February 15, 1969. However, his path was marked by profound hardships, starting with the tragic loss of his mother, Gladys Brooks, in a shooting incident when he was a mere two years old.

In addition to this early loss, Birdman‘s relationship with his father, Johnnie Williams, was marked by frequent absences. Consequently, Birdman‘s upbringing was largely entrusted to his grandmother, and he spent significant time at his father’s bars.

Birdman shared his life within his family circle with two younger siblings, Ronald “Slim” Williams and Tamara Williams. However, formal education beyond high school was separate from Birdman‘s journey.

Career

Birdman embarked on his journey as a rapper in the early 1990s, forging an alliance with Big Tymers to release their inaugural album, I Got It Like That. This inaugural venture struck a resounding chord, amassing sales surpassing the million mark within the United States alone. Expanding upon this initial triumph, Birdman and the Big Tymers continued their collaborative odyssey, birthing a succession of prosperous albums, including Get Your Hustle On (1997), How Ya Luv That? (2000), and I Got That Work (2003).

In the annals of Birdman‘s solo career, his first individual opus, Birdman, took flight in 2002, scaling the heights of commercial success by clinching the pinnacle of the Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. His solo discography further burgeoned with the release of three additional albums: Fast Money in 2005, 500 Degreez in 2006, and Pricele$$ in 2010.

Beyond his prowess as a performer, Birdman commands renown as a record executive, lauded for his instrumental role in launching the illustrious careers of several artists, including Lil Wayne, Drake, Nicki Minaj, and Tyga. His penchant for opulence and the distinctive “Stunna!” catchphrase has left an indelible imprint on his public persona.

Yet, Birdman‘s presence in the tapestry of the hip-hop community is not devoid of controversy. He has weathered substantial backlash, plagued by artist exploitation and maltreatment allegations. In 2014, a highly publicized feud erupted between Birdman and Lil Wayne, with Lil Wayne levelling accusations of withheld earnings against Birdman. Though they ultimately mended fences, this acrimonious chapter undoubtedly cast a shadow over Birdman’s standing within the industry.
