This week we present our interview with Mannie Fresh, a DJ, rapper, and producer and one of the original members of Cash Money records. He’s produced award winning tracks like “Back that A** Up” and all of the singles and albums made by Cash Money records. Despite the success he’s brought to the group, there’s still unsolved financial issues within Cash Money. Mannie has reconciled with Baby over the issues and he’s been trying to do the same for all of the original Cash Money stars. “I thought about it, and Baby has kids, I have kids, and Wayne has kids… there’s no reason our kids shouldn’t know each other,” Mannie told The Come Up Show. Cash Money records was monumental in putting southside rap on the map. Mannie talks to us about what that was like, why Lil Wayne is a “kid genius” and how “Bling Bling” might have ruined hip hop.Each and every Wednesday we’ll be uploading a brand new interview with a guest we feel that you should know about.
