Young Money crew as Winnie-the-Pooh Characters: Young Poolah, Baby!

Categories: Poptimystic

​Drake said recently that he's drawing inspiration from Winnie the Pooh for his next album. But Drake would never be Pooh Bear -- that has to be Lil Wayne. Which Hundred Acre Wood inhabitant would Drake actually be? What about the rest of the gang? Below, a character-by-character breakdown. Except for Owl. There is no Owl in Young Money.

Nicki Minaj as Tigger
She is as energetic a rapper as there is in the world. Like Tigger, she's a buoyant fan favorite who's had plenty of well-deserved time in the spotlight.

Lil Wayne as Winnie the Pooh
He's affable, has no idea what he's saying half the time, but is nevertheless an endless font of wisdom. They both seem like somewhat unwitting leaders, but they are leaders and mentors nonetheless.

Birdman CR.jpg

Birdman as Christopher Robin
Birdman is not technically a member of Young Money -- but then, Christopher Robin is not technically an inhabitant of the Hundred Acre Wood, either. Both act as father figures to Wayne/Pooh (in neither case an actual son), and both saw the potential in their wards long before anyone else did.

Lil Twist as Roo
He's not the youngest Young Money signee, but he is the most childlike.
