Birdman wants to lend a helping hand to New Orleans residents during the coronavirus pandemic. The Cash Money Records boss has offered to pay May’s monthly rent for anyone in need living in the city’s Uptown residential area. The Hip Hop mogul also called on the Housing Authority of New Orleans to aid him in accomplishing the good deed and asked Mayor LaToya Cantrell for her help.
