Thugger told the mag that he linked up with Cash Money boss Birdman because he idolized them his whole life, which is evident when he named a project Barter 6. "I wanted to stunt like Birdman, which I f-ing am. And I wanted to be like Wayne," he said.

Weezy has made it clear he has an issue with Young Thug. Thug says it does bother him. "But of course it bothers me some, because that's what I always wanted. It was so weird: I always wanted to be in the studio with Wayne. I would tell Birdman to bring him over, but he never f-ing came."
