    During the commercial hip-hop goldrush of the early 2000’s, it’s no exaggeration to say that 50 Cent had captured not just the East Coast’s throne, but was beginning to vie for control over the entire marketplace. Whip smart, confrontational and harbouring a backstory that was the stuff of major motion pictures to come, 50’s rise gave him room to do what any superstar would do - bolster those around you.

    50 always says his respect for Eminem comes from em helping him when he couldn’t help himself. 50 got the leg up then did the rest himself. That’s what 50 expected from the gunit members but he doesn’t feel they helped themselves and he wasn’t going to carry them the whole time. That’s why he’s done with them.

    I believe after 50 got shot up that changed him as a person. He was the next upcoming hot rapper everyone was talking about was gonna blow, he was on Colombia he was with trackmasters everyone was in his corner and his best friend life was great!! Then when he got shot it all disappeared nobody wanted to deal with him anymore and he couldn't even get anyone on the phone all that industry shit was gone. He had to rehabilitate from the shooting then use all his money to get back on his music grind and climbed his way all the way back up to being that next hot rapper. I think that experience made him cold hearted the dude doesn't get along with ANYONE he cant even love his OWN SON and almost every artist hes ever worked with hes flipped on.
    50 is very intelligent and driven but hes emotionally broken he needs some real therapy but hood dudes dont do therapy so it's a wrap.

    G-Unit failed for a lot of reasons, the beginning was great. They had a two hit records and they made their own fan base real quick, but imo it all fell apart due to constant beefing and infighting. 50 should have just let Game go if he didn’t want to be there or make him fulfill his Contact and then cut him loose, but it became a huge issue with G-unit putting out songs to beef with The Game and other rappers instead of actually making Hit records and Touring. Another thing was that 50 had beef or started beef with every new NY Rapper, so when the rest of G-unit tried to get features for their songs everyone turned them down. It was a catch 22 imo the rest of G unit can fight 50’s battles and beefs or go in the booth and make actual hit songs, both choices have their consequence.

THEY 3 HAD DINNDERS LUCNHES IN NYC DIDDY AND JAYZ WERE COMPETITION ON MONEY..........So the main issue was not beef... in my opinion 50 killed everyone he beefs with from 2003 until 2010... 50 ran hip hop you can hate it or not that is facts.... 50 issues was he did not move on from gangster rap and move to club hits... if 50 did more pop songs he would be able to save gunit... it would be relevant... gunit had 0 gameplan... tony yayo walked into from prison to home 1 million dollars cash duffle bag... don't forget that... these boys were spoiled kids... they partied in nyc like kings on 50 cent bank account.

      Game didn't flop. Like him or not he became his own artist. I like 50 but his guys were only good as long as he had his juice flowing. They were branded with the "50 brand" stamp, that's what stopped them. If they wanted to have anything beyond G Unit. When 50 gets thirsty enough for hip hop legitimacy, he'll reunite G-Unit and most likely Game and Buck included. That his Legacy and that's where he left off so that's what's gonna make sense musically. Of course Em will be on it. His relevancy in the tv world will make that possible by carrying that attention over. And yes he does have sociopathic ways to where it would make him look so much better if he wasn't so worried about fame/celebrity and attention from shock value. Letting his art speak the volumes it is right now thru the tv scene is the best thing he can be doing for himself and that's definitely what's up 💯💯

      Blood doesn't mean you deserve shit. Some people don't see it that way, people like me and 50 do.
      50 Spent the past 20+ years having issues with either his baby mama or his own son. At this rate, his kid bit the hand that fed him too many times. It ain't like he's stopping him from succeeding, he's simply not going to feed him anymore.

    I love that Eminem looked out for D12, even having Bizarre do an intro on Music to be Murdered by.
    I've read 50 cents last book , he doesn't seem to have any close friends that he's known for any real amount of time. Em mentions on several songs that he grew up with D12. Rip Proof.
    I also hope one day 50 can make peace with himself , I felt his book was very angry at everyone . Angry at his Son , his ex , etc, angry at G Unit. Not a good way to live

      Yves Charles It’s deeper than rap. Eminem and Dre was 50 blue print. Not having this all of a sudden work ethic. Conflict of interest if Banks blow which he did if only briefly. Notice none of his singles feat Dre production for lead off like a lot. At 10:42 that 50 quote is false. 50 started the beefs and Lloyd ended them. Burning bridges along the way when G-Unit was at the height of their powers they were self contained. Lloyd had to repair a lot of bridges when he left the Unit. Lot of dudes always respected him lyrically and knew he was just a pawn in 50 game.

They made a deal with the devil and then act all suprised, when 50 did the same shit with them, like he did to all the other people/rappers around them.

      Slackernalia You right on that, and once he started beefing with 50, that’s when Dre fell back. But this was a TMZ video, literally called Dre out the blew and he picked right up. I feel it’s all love but to a certain extent.

      Its all about finding your lane. You need a good team to help you carve out your path in the game. Lloyd Banks will always be a punchline God. Its Yayo and Young Buck that never really carved a permanent lane. I loved the projects they put out but the industry is fickle. When they done with you they done.

      Ten year reign? They were hot for about a year in the 2000s and then forgotten, apart from the funny shit like Buck crying on the phone with 50 and the boring beef with the Game. Who was still checking for G Unit after about 2006? They flamed out very quickly.
