A History of Birdman Rubbing His Hands Together in Music Videos

If you've watched the rise of Cash Money Records and Bryan Williams aka Baby aka Birdman, you should be absolutely familiar with his stuntastic ways. For those really watching Mr. Williams, you may have noticed the excessive frequency of his signature move: rubbing his hands together.
Over the past decade, Birdman has turned this universal gesture into his very own beloved calling card. If he isn't in a rap video uttering the words "mullah," "born rich," "YMCMB," "MOB," "swagged out," "livin' lavish," or "uptown," you can bet your bottom dollar he's executing his signature token.
With the launch of the official YMCMB webstore featuring all the exclusive YMCMB apparel we've seen in pretty much all the new Cash Money videos, we took a look back at those very clips and captured every instance of the 5 Star Stunna doing what he does for a History of Birdman Rubbing His Hands Together in Music Videos.

I think it all started on Birdman's first video, you know back when people called him Baby and his voice sounded completely different, he said to the director "What am I supposed to do with my hands?" to which the director replied "Just rub em together and make some bird noises"
