50 Cent is not very friendly
50 Cent dislikes P Diddy and Jay-Z. The rapper – real name Curtis Jackson – has no desire to be friends with the two music moguls. When asked if he ever feels competitive towards Diddy and Jay-Z's business ventures, he replied, "Nah. I don't even like them."
The hip-hop star refused to retract his words when it was suggested they could be misconstrued, saying, "I don't give a f**k."
50 insisted he '‘respected' Diddy but won't be phoning him to ask for advice. He told a hip-hop website: "In business, I respect what he does. But if we liked each other, we'd call each other to talk for no reason. And me and Puffy, we don't have conversations."
Diddy and Jay-Z are not the first to feel 50's wrath. He has also been involved in a war of words with Kanye West. The two hip-hop heavyweights are due to do battle in the charts next month when their new albums – 50's Curtis and West's Graduation – are both released on September 11.
50 is so confident he will win the sales war, he has threatened to quit music if his rival outsells him. He said: "Let's raise the stakes. If Kanye West sells more records than 50 Cent on September 11, I'll no longer perform music. I'll write music and work with my other artists, but I won't put out any more solo albums."
