Category Archives: Birdman

Look! Up in the sky! It’s a Bird! It’s a plane! Nope, I was right the first time, it’s a bird! But it’s also a man! It’s Birdman! Ah yes, it’s a great day when I get to talk about my favorite superhero; Birdman, the man with all the powers of a bird. I remember when I was young, when I was but a Bald Master Private; I would curl up in my bunk and read Birdman Adventures by flashlight. I loved when he fought his arch enemy, The Bird Watcher. Oh the battles they had (*assistant slides piece of paper onto desk*)…ohhhhhh…that Birdman. So the Birdman we are talking about today isn’t a superhero, but he is mega-rich (Forbes estimates that he’s worth $100 million).He not only started Cash Money Records, he also has had a huge career as a rapper, and discovered Lil Wayne. He’s been nominated for a Grammy, and teamed with Manny Fresh to form the Big Tymers; one of the most successful rap groups to come out of the South in the history of Hip-hop. Guess what folks; he’s done it all while being bald as can be. I can’t remember a time when he had hair, and I can’t remember a time when he tried to hide it. He embraces his baldness so much, that he’s gotten multiple tattoos atop his head to insure a constant stream of attention on his lack of head-fur. Birdman may not be a superhero, but he’s certainly a hero to the bald.
