During an appearance on Nick Cannon’s new Power 106 show, Nick Cannon in the Mornings, Birdman stopped by to discuss a few topics. The first on his list was the difficulty of being on morning radio. Both from the host and guest’s perspective:
“I think radio is a hell of a job,” Birdman said as he laughed. “Some people take it completely out of context. They very disrespectful and downplay the artist. I think as an artist and as a man, first we men and we humans first. So when the disrespect comes, it’s still a line. I think a lot of them crosses that line. I think as a man and as a person, sometimes you gotta step up and check that sh*t…I’m cool ’til you f*ck with me.” (via Hot New Hip Hop)
