B.G. to Represent Billionaire Mafia’s Legend Clothing Line

New Orleans emcee B.G. is endorsing his first clothing line by signing on with the Las Vegas-based Billionaire Mafia clothing line.

Established in 2007, the Billionaire line was founded by Lana Fuchs to reflect her love of urban art, music, and fashion.

Initially, the line simply offered graffiti-themed tees and hoodies. Over the last 3 years, the clothing company has grown and been worn by celebrities such as rapper Busta Rhymes, media personality Big Tigger, and MMA fighter Rashad Evans.

“If you’re in the game, then you got to be a power player,” Fuchs stated. “Billionaire Mafia is elegant, luxurious and sexy, but each individual gentleman can add his own swagger to it. I like to dress real men, who know what they want and go after it with a vengeance.”

Since his first appearance as a teen with Lil Wayne on the early 90’s True Story EP, B.G. has remained a viable and respected artist in his city and the rest of the South.

When asked what drew him to the Billionaire Legend’s line, B.G. explained that it reflected the street culture that he champions in his music.

“This year I joined the Billionaire Mafia family, a hot clothing line for gangsters like me,” B.G. revealed. “Be on the lookout for me, B.G., coming to a hood near you rocking’ my Billionaire Mafia fits. Time to get back to the money, that Billionaire Mafia money. I look like money all day, everyday representing Billionaire Mafia.”

B.G.’s last project was 2009’s Too Hood 2 Be Hollywood. This year, he is finalizing a collaboration LP with Lil Boosie.

B.G. says he will look for a new Record Label

B.G. has announced that he will be leaving T.I.’s Grand Hustle Records and test the Free agent Market. B.G. is definately the most talented artist ever spawned from Cash Money Records even if he never achieved the level of success of Lil Wayne when he left Cash Money.

B.G. Free Agent

“I’m gonna be a free agent,” explained the rapper. “I’m gonna sit down with the people that are closest to me like my lawyer and my manager and see what is the best route to go. Grand Hustle is no more all that’s over with Im finished with them. T.I. was the executive producer of the last project with me when it was on Atlantic. After the situation with him and the garbage Hip Hop Awards, they kind of froze up on me, kept pushing the album back. Once I felt like they were playing with me, I stopped calling, got back doing what I was doing, creating another opportunity.”

Asked if he might reunite with Cash Money Records alongside Lil Wayne and Birdman, B.G. only said, “If the numbers right, if it makes sense.”
