Bryan "Birdman" Williams is one of the most powerful executives in hip-hop today, but he wasn't always the #1 Stunna.

During a break from the Young Thug cover shoot, Birdman explains why the ATL rapper reminds him of himself at an earlier stage, and details his plans to turn Thugger into a superstar.
