Lil Wayne Reportedly Bags Settlement in Legal Showdown With Birdman

Lil Wayne has reportedly come out on top in his longstanding legal dispute with Birdman and Cash Money Records, meaning the elusive Carter V may now have a real shot at being released. Wednesday night, the Blast alleged they had obtained court documents showing that Wayne’s attorney filed a notice May 23 claiming “all sides” were down for dismissing the suit. Universal then reportedly cut a settlement check to Wayne for “well over $10 million,” zero dollars of which originated from Birdman.
