(AllHipHop News) There is a long history of Cash Money Records not properly paying artists, producers, and other individuals that have worked for the company. The label’s biggest star, Lil Wayne, is still fighting to get unpaid profits from CMR.

That reputation did not stop Atlanta based singer Jacquees from signing with Cash Money. In fact, the “Like Baby” performer told DJ Smallz he is happy with putting his name on a contract with Birdman and Slim’s imprint.

“That’s the risk I took signing a record deal. I’m not saying it was a risk because it was Cash Money. Nah, it was a risk because it was a deal,” stated Jacquees.

The former independent artist added, “It’s the biggest risk I ever took, and it’s the best decision I ever made of my life.”
