Watch Birdman Insist to ESPN That He Literally Sleeps on $1 Million in Cash

Today, Birdman was the guest on ESPN’s talk show “Highly Questionable.” On the episode, he discussed his upbringing, finding God in prison, signing his first contract, wanting to die young, and more. At one point, co-host Dan Le Batard asked Birdman a true or false question: “You had a million dollars that you actually slept on.” Birdman answered confidently, “I still sleep on a million dollars cash. That’s just a fatuation for me in life. I do that and I’mma do that until I die.” When Le Batard tried to confirm that Birdman really sleeps on money, he responded, “I’mma do that ’til I die. I got a million dollars on my mattress, under my sheets. I just feel the need to do that. I was fortunate to blessed to be able to do it and I sleep on it every night with my Versace bedspread on top of it.” Co-host Bomani Jones then tried to figure out if that’s at all comfortable. Birdman laughed and told him “it don’t matter” because his bed is three California king mattresses.

Le Batard asked another true or false question: Did he and Lil Wayne really bet $10,000 on games of “Madden”? Birdman confirmed the rumor and revealed that Wayne was often the victor because he let him win: “I let him make sure he win anyway ’cause I wasn’t trippin’ like that. It didn’t matter to me. I wanted him to win anyway [because] that’s my son. You know how that go. You gotta let the little one win, sometimes, not all the time.”

Wayne is no stranger to “Highly Questionable.” In March, he appeared on the program with 2 Chainz. But he does not seem to buy Birdman’s stories. He tweeted, “highly questionable is hiiiiiighly questionable today.” It’s not clear whether he’s calling Birdman’s bluff on the mattress, the “Madden,” or anything else discussed. Watch the full interview below.

The “Highly Questionable” interview is just the latest incident in Birdman and Wayne’s feud and potential reconciliation. It began back in 2014 when Tha Carter V’s release got delayed. Wayne sued Birdman and Cash Money for “refusing” to release the record. In January, the two appeared on stage together, although the lawsuit remained. In May, Birdman said he’s not responsible for holding back the release of Tha Carter V. He did, however, release a song called “Fuk Em” that same month; it appeared to be a diss track aimed at Wayne.
