Cash Money Records Founders, Birdman & Slim, Launch Indie Oil Company
By Miles Bennett ♦ Published 01/21/2010

Birdman and SlimCash Money Records co-founders, Birdman and Ronald "Slim" Williams are trying their hands in another business venture outside the music world. They're now expanding their portfolios into the oil business.

The New Orleans-bred brothers have launched an independent oil and gas company called Bronald Oil & Gas.

Via the company's mission station on their website, BronaldOil.com, they say their initial focus is the "exploration, production and development of oil and gas reserves from conventional and unconventional formations."

Bronald, a combination of the brother's first names, say they have begun the process of acquiring leases "covering areas with historical production and the opportunity for re-entry drilling as well as new drilling opportunities."

Their current target locations include Texas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Florida, as well as Central America.

Although this is their first foray into the oil business, they make is clear that one of their main concerns during oil exploration is "preserving the environment."

They are also seeking investors.

"We welcome investors to join us in the exciting business of oil exploration," the website read.

Birdman even has a tattoo in celebration of the new venture -- an oil rig embedded with the words "Bronald". So, it looks like he's serious about it.

    Half a Billion ain't nothing in the oil business. They'll be broke by year 2.

  • okoilman

    The only thing these guys know about oil & gas is what they put in their hair from Afro-Sheen and the gas they make from eating all that soul food..

    They can not pronouce 95% of the words written on their website much less understand anything that has to do with exploration and production.

    They should just stick with being Gangsters!! and leave the real work to the pros!!!

  • jaykay

    Just some advice, read a book called the greatest gamblers. The oil and gas industry can chew up billionaires and spit them out. I think it will make quick work of these 2. Stick to the music, you can loose yor furtune before lunch in oil and gas.

  • oiltech

    Sound like we got some jealous people out there wish they could buy up some old used up oilfields.

    I didn't read anything about them running a drilling rig. Oil hands don't care who signs the check just where the next one is coming from.

    Hire some guys with experience and get'r done.

  • Hoss

    Pretty sure they could be sold seismic wax. And Sean WTF are you sending this link out for.

  • slim

  • jflubb

    @ PKILLA
    TAKE BABYS PENIS OUT UR MOUTH BEFORE U MAKE WAYNE JEALOUS LMAO!!
    STUPID!

  • Rig Poppa

    I can't wait to see these guys at the next API or IADC Sporting Clays Tournament holding their shotguns sideways (gangsta style). They might have street credit, but no Oilfield Services Company is going to consign anything to these characters without "REAL CREDIT." I can't wait to see the look on their faces whenever they lose a BHA, RSS and PDC in the hole. "What, what, what? I ain't paying no mothaf'n million for a bunch of acronyms those white folks put together."

  • kc breeze’s boner

    "appriciate" "groath" "there minds" "there not done"

    Your mind might serve better from some of that groath. Get off the internet and learn something. (Maybe some third grade spelling and grammar lessons?)

  • anon

    a wise man said stick to what you know

  • mike818

    these some real niggas, "It's NEVER Enough"

  • Bossrock2135

    cant yall c? baby made it in the game husltin. He says is all the time. Hustlas and gangstas have fronts to make it look like they legit. Dis is jus one of them fronts. Everything is legal but if u really knew dis mans past i bet all that cash money came from dirty money. Not hatin just know whats up.

  • http://fabiostips.com Fabio

    Honestly i think this is a front if you ask me i think
    their running out of money and are looking for investors to keep
    the music thing rolling, im sure bronald is a corp so most likely
    they can declare bankruptcy after they waste all of the investors
    money. i also agree with who said half a billion is nothing is the
    oil biz you need billions which they dont have they should stick to
    music im also sure they dont understand most of whats written on
    their website.

  • N$Y

    BABY DON'T MIND THE DAMN GEES!! DO YOUR THING, YOU GET MONEY TO BLOW!!!

  • http://stepstoeliminatedebt.blogspot.com/ Dexter

    I hope they know what their doing because the oil businesss is a risky venture but I guess they must know what they are doing to even start this business so good luck
