I mean, they were Cash Money Records way before everybody knew their name, and what I mean by that is that the power they have now, they had then, but just locally in the city. They were pretty big locally in New Orleans and so I always just looked up to them. WAYNE: The guys I’m with right now, Cash Money Records. So, yeah, I always knew I was gonna be one.ĮHRLICH: Who did you look up to when you were 8 years old? Who inspired you to want to be a rapper?

LIL WAYNE: That was the first time-at that same party. When he walks into a room, he just has this power that’s exciting to be around.ĮHRLICH: And what about you, Wayne? What was your first memory of meeting Paris? But I always thought he was such an incredible artist and so talented. They called me to host it, and I met him there. PARIS HILTON: I actually met him when he had a Grammy party in L.A. Paris, you first: When did you first meet Wayne or what was your first thought about him?
