Apple Signs Deal With Cash Money Records

Apple has signed a deal with Cash Money Records, according to label co-founder Birdman.

Cash Money Records has some major artists including Lil Wayne, Nick Minaj, Young Money, Birdman, and Drake.

MusicBusinessworldWide was first to notice that Birdman posted a picture to his Instagram this weekend with the message:


"It’s official… Cash Money makes a power move with Apple Music."

Notably, the picture features both Birdman and Apple Music's Larry Jackson who now helps the company target artists, especially hip-hop/R&B ones, with exclusivity deal offers.

It's unclear what exactly the deal with Cash Money Records entails. It could bring more exclusive releases to Apple Music or even involve content creation. Drake's individual deal with Apple is said to be worth $19 million and resulted in a two-week Apple Music exclusive for his recent album Views.
