Why Squash the Beef? ... 50 Cent Needs Help, Part II

I could've sworn I said in one of my previous blogs that after Curtis made up with DJ Green Lantern that Kiss was gonna be next. Too bad the SOHH archives are no longer available.
Wait. I found it. Someone posted it on their blog. Good lookin! Peep below:
"First came Kim, now comes Green. Others may not see it. But I see it. Fif needs help. What other way to win back a significant amount of your New York fans by joining forces with other respected artists? Who's next? Jadakiss himself? But after riding high on his arrogance and pulling the cards of just about every New York City rapper, 50's amends with Green and Lil Kim might be the only beef he can squash.
Why didn't you think about this years ago, when you began alienating everyone? You didn't think your little reign would last forever, did you?
Yeah. You did. Played yourself." -- Reckless, Jan '08
I should've said "mark my words" somewhere in there. What's next? A hip-hop version of Michael Jackson's "We Are the World"? Green Lantern, Kiss, Lil' Kim, and Ja Rule in the studio with ear phones on happily rapping together? Everyone drinking Formula 50 Vitamin Water and laughing? How corny is that picture? 50 is getting real corny and real quick. He's supposed to be this hard core "gangster" rapper but now he's extending his hand to his former enemies because his rapping career is looking like doo-doo. Too bad he has already passed the height of his career. Nothing and no one is ever going to reverse that no matter what he does.
Now that Fif's "beef" with the leader of the D-Block crew is a done deal, what is that bird ass n*gga J-Hood gonna do? After running back and forth between Yonkers and the G-Unit office like a chicken with no head, and denying that Sheek helped him after his stepfather was inappropriately "touching" him, J-Hood has proven that he is nothing but another urine-smelling hood rat. With lint balls in his hair. And white crud on the corners of his lips like Lil' Boosie.
These rappers are becoming too much for me to handle. One minute they're hard, the next they're playing dolls. If they're going to portray a "thug" then they need to stick with that. All this flip-flopping business is just stupid.
And don't start that "they're doing it for hip-hop" crap. There is no more hip-hop.
Next up: 50 makes amends with Irv Gotti and Ja Rule.

hi, i would like to say STFU with that shit, no one cares about 50, yes his ass is corny of course but what you expect from someone who cant be trusted???
ok maybe it was a lil too far by saying no one cares for 5o, but come on guys, we need to see reports on something better, something more positive than a report about beef and a guy who puts out music that only weakens our community, dam have common sense
and one more thing, when you hear someone saying they are a "thug" most chances are its just for hype n they just putting on a act, but they need to stop lying n help out people dammit
and yes i agree with you on the fact that people should stop saying its for hip hop, you guya are dumb and dont know what hip hop is if you think hip hop IS about gangs n shit, its about artistic expression, not flashy people
shut up you fag, 50 is the best out there 2nd to The Game. What the freak are you saying. 50's music is good while others suck ass. Lil' wayne gay ass and Jeezys wack ass rhymes . The only good thing happeneing in hip hop is The Game and 50. And if it wasn't for them separating the south would not exist right now!
SO shut the freak up whoevere wrote this post period
I don't see the error in squashing beefs. We shouldn't give a fuck about images. We are not one dimensional human beings. You can't be hard 24/7. Fueds and wars is unhealthy and ridiculous especially when they are made public. Most of these rap beefs aren't really about shit. When a rapper rapes another rappers child, then we can have a real beef. Not over who is the realest nigga and who is faking it. Fans are growing tired of the bullshit and just want to hear good music at the end of the day and not who is feuding with who. All these extracurriculars is getting in the way of the music.
Aye nah!...u gone have 2 get off my nigga boosie lol...
And if 50 suck.(I aint fuckin witem nomore since tha buck thing) then who tha hell is doin it in NY now?
This poster is a fucking retard. What if 50 is squashing beef. That's good, his lil strategy is good. What the fuck should they Beef forever then? ffs makes no fucking sense. Unity of NY rather than all these beefs. Fuck image, people saying what ever they want to say nowadays. So lets talk about guns and use them and see how many rappers end up behind bars doign nothing for Hiphop anyway.
50 is good and hes smart. This poster isn't.
Hmmm...I agree. Rap is like the WWF, alliances and beefs move and shift all the time. Nobody really means anyone any harm, only the stupid niggas who think their siding with one camp and can't see through the soap operas for what hip hop really is get gassed up and want to take shit outside of the music business (these niggas need to kill each other off ASAP anyway).
But I would've though 50 was smarter than to just alienate himself from New York without having a plan, but it seems he's going to use the "you know all that shit I was saying about you earlier? You know I was just rapping, I didn't really mean it..." angle to make friends.
That doesn't mean 5-0 is good for hip-hop, cause he sure isn't
He's just like MC Hammer, all image and style and no substance.
50 and ja??I don't see that happening...And dude is a platinum selling artist in countrys we never even heard of so it aint about the money...I just think he's tired of being a bully...He got so much money he probally like...ok...let these lil dusty rappers get they lil paper now..It'll never be safe for him to come back to new york though...never..
"50`s rap career lookin larry holmes" lol, blasphemy at its best. yo dog stfu about 50 . 50 is the best all around rapper out there besides jay-z. i swear u people on this site dont know shit about rap. who u think is betta kanye ? some book bag wearin ass nigga, lil wayne fuck outta here.
Are you kidding me?
5-0 will never be the best all around rapper and will never come close to jigga, this rapper has truly lowered the standards of hip-hop, more than anybody.
Thank god I Started a petition to remove g-unit from interscope and the music industry for good.
Time to kick their asses out.
wow, I see you bloggers doing a lot of hating...
as usual.
it's funny you say that 50 has passed his prime but he sitting at the top of the Forbes list of hip hop artists
the nigga making more money than you could ever dream of, yet his career is sick and flabby..
*sniff sniff* smell like hate
plus if you haven't noticed, rap isn't even 50's main hustle any more
he done made more with his endorsements and investments than he has with rap
even if for some reason he stopped rapping forever, he would still be caking strictly off his knowledge of the business
50 is smart for squashing the beef, he knows that at this stage in his life his street cred isn't that important
you think Bill Gates worried about whether or not niggas think he bust his gun?

But 5-0's knows he's not popular anymore and he deserves after all of the damage he caused into the game, we americans do not like trash of a rapper, cause he has turned it into more bullshit for generations to come.
You bring up a great point. Since he and G-Unit alienated everyone in hip hop you don't hear them on many guest spots. You don't see them doing much with people outside of Interscope or even just Shady/Aftermath. You won't just catch them on tour with a bunch of people. 50 played himself majorily and his crew is just not hot. We could have got more dope collabs like Nas and 50 on Guess Whos Back....but no, 50 thought he would be on top forever. He enemies are making hotter music then his crew especially The Game.
Seriously I wouldn't put it past 50 cent to do a song with either Ja Rule or The Game on his next cd. Sadly The Game would probably really do it, hes corny like that...I think Ja would stay his ground.
^ Good points made. The industry isn't just about rapping anyway...You can't really on rapping alone to get paid. 50 rapped then moved on but still does his thing here and there. G-Unit isn't as hot as before...as most crews aren't recently too much internal turmoil.
Seriously. It's only white kids that feel 50 and game and all these other corny wack rappers. The only ones making em rich too...
ADMIT IT
MAN, 50 50 50 DAMN ONLY THING HE WANNA DO IS STAY IN THE MEDIA A LITTLE TIL HIS ALBUM DROP DEN U C HIM EVERYWHERE. I WANNA C HIM AND THE NIGGA GAME GET BACK, GAME SAID THEY MADE GOOD MUSIC 2GATHER AND THEY DID. ALL THE SONGS THEY DID WAS DOPE SO YEA DAT WOULD B COOL 2 C. GAME WON THE BEEF DAT ONLY Y HIM AND 50 MITE NOT REUNITED AND 50 GOT THE BIGGEST EGO BUT IF HOVA AND NAS DID NOT SAYING DAT THEY COMPARE 2 HOV AND NAS BUT IF COULD DO IT ANYBODY CAN
kanye is gay

the beef was never real to begin with. so who cares if he squashes it. and lets be serious...its not like 50 needs any of them niggaz. 50 is filthy rich and could fade into the shadows and his family be straight for generations to come. he did what he had to do to get on top...now he's doin what he must to (try) and get there again.
none of this matters at all because lil wayne is killing the rap game.
BRING BACK THE FORUMS!
we all know that your bullshitting with bringing them back up. it doesnt take this long.
I think 50 already made a sideways pass to Jada by trying to recruit Styles P... But I wouldn't doubt it....TBC
