Look at his IG.
DINNER & A SHOW
It’s appropriate to have set this journey off with a reminder of Fifty’s glory days, working alongside the talented tandem of Storch and Dre. After all, was 50 himself not once a young rapper, trying to set himself apart from the rest? Of course, there’s the fact that his rise came accompanied with actual music, with Power Of The Dollar having set the local streets abuzz long before social media antics ever took shape. Even when Fifty did begin trolling the game at large, he did so in a lyrical fashion, calling out names on the infamous “How To Rob.” Therefore, when an up-and-coming artist accosted him during a date night, begging for a chance, it didn’t take long for the situation to veer left.
In the clip below, a party who shall not be named – instead hereby referred to as “The Third Wheel” – all but begs 50 to check out his Instagram page. Regardless of circumstance, Fif is having none of the unceremonious interruption; date night is a way of life, not to be disrupted by the likes of wayward struggle rappers. “Are you crazy man?” asks an exasperated Fifty. “It’s not going to work. You stupid. The way you approaching it is wrong. There’s nothing to play right now. There’s nothing you can show me right now that’s going to help you. ‘Look at my IG’ is going to help you?”
Whether Fifty actively avoided his IG out of sheer principle remains unknown, though one has to wonder if he ultimately snuck a peek. In any case, 50 is never one to miss a business opportunity. “Look at my IG” shirts are available now, in a size of your choosing.
A TONY YAYO SCORNED
Loyalty is all well and good, but what’s the G-Unit code of honor stacked against a debt unpaid? Tony Yayo found out the hard way that Fifty, in an elephant-esque fashion, forgets absolutely nothing – least of all where coppers are concerned. Despite their shared history, Yayo recently found himself on the receiving end of a Fofty scolding, which unfolded for our benefit in real time. The phone conversation, documented for 50’s own records, went as follows:
50 Cent: What’s up, what you doing?
Tony Yayo: I’m mackin, man.
50 Cent: I called you cause I was thinking about people that got to give me my money back. *Sips soda*
TY: (after a long pause) Aw man, here we go…Come on big homie, what you talking about!
50: I wasn’t even talking about you, but now that you said that, you should give me back some of the money I’ve been giving you.
TY: *Unintelligible* We friends, n***a! What are you talking about!
50: Friend!?! I don’t got no friends! I love you boy, but you need to give me some of that money back now that I think about it. I was going through people that’s supposed to give me my money.
TY: Yo homie, come on man. You know I love you too. Come on man, don’t do me like that. Shit, you want me to shoot somebody? I’ll pay you back like that.
Though the conclusion went unfinished, 50 proceeded to share the conversation on his page. The video prompted Yayo to slide in the comment section to voice his disproval. “You put this up you tripping homie,” he writes. A drama setter indeed.
