Mannie Fresh was the producer behind all of Cash Money Record's earliest big hits in 1990s and 2000s. As such, Fresh, in many ways, introduced the world to Lil Wayne. The superproducer had some words of advice for his former labelmate and friend upon Wayne's release from prison.

"Get on your knees and pray first, before anything," Mannie said. "I don't wish harm on nobody, you was put in there, I guess, to look at it like it's one of God's lessons, to learn that you 'can' be touched. Don't take it for granted, take it as a lesson and build on it as a career. Be a bigger and better man -- move on [with] life, and you know, watch your steps, watch what you do."
