The Game raps about 50 Cent on his new single with Lil Wayne

The Game drops brand new single called “A.I. With The Braids” featuring Lil Wayne. This track was supposed to be for The Game’s 2019 album titled “Born 2 Rap” which celebrates 1 year anniversary tomorrow.

The song was produced by Mike Zombie and it samples The Notorious B.I.G.’s two songs: “Dead Wrong” and “Get Money“. Because the track was surfaced online last year, it didn’t make in to the album but now it is officially released.

In a song, The Game raps: “Stop it, the Tommy got more power than Kanan. They wanna know what I whispered in 50’s ear “G-Unit, motherf**ker, the real Ghost is here.”

Now lets decode the lyrics. With this lines, Game addresses his bond with 50 Cent while name-dropping 3 of Power TV shows’ main characters: James “Ghost” St. Patrick (Omari Hardwick), Tommy Egan (Joseph Sikora) and Kanan Stark (50 Cent). TV series which is executive produced by Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson and airs on Starz network.

In the TV series, the story is developed behind the life of a character Ghost who runs the drugs traffic in New York city with the help of his right hand character Tommy. Both Tommy and Ghost grew up with Kanan who is considered their mentor.

The Game cleverly references Tommy and Kanan to claim that even though he was considered 50 Cent’s protegee, he has much more power and influence than his mentor by comparing himself to Ghost.

Back in 2005, The Game was expelled from G-Unit group and started a 13 year long beef with 50 Cent which led to countless diss tracks and actual shootouts in the streets. But in 2018 they finally squashed they’re feud at 50 Cent’s party where The Game was caught talking to Fifty’s ear.

50 Cent mocks Best Rap Album Grammy nominations

Couple of weeks ago, in an interview with Spotify, 50 Cent, who served as an executive producer for Pop Smoke’s posthumous album “Shoot for the Stars, Aim for the Moon,” shaded the Grammys for not recognizing gangsta rap: “If Pop Smoke’s album is recognized, it will only get recognized because Pop Smoke is gone. The content is similar to what I would do. They did not recognize mine. They gave me Grammys when I was with Em, when I am on records with Eminem.”

Fifty continues: “They are afraid to give Pop Smoke Grammys because they think it is teaching the audience to want to be like Pop. And to be like him is to be a part of gang culture. Who you see get Grammys that is making Drill music? You mean to tell me ain’t none of those songs worthy of it? Those platforms are not for them to acknowledge. It is for the culture, the people to embrace those tones and to really appreciate the artist for doing that.”

Yesterday, The Recording Academy unveiled the nominations for the 2021 Grammy Awards and Royce Da 5’9″ got the Best Rap Album nomination along with Nas’ “Kings Disease,” D’Smoke’s “Black Habits”, Freddie Gibbs and The Alchemist’s “Alfredo” and Jay Electronica’s “A Written Testimony.” As 50 Cent predicted, Pop Smoke’s album didn’t get the nomination but his single “Dior” from that album is nominated for Best Rap Performance.

Fifty headed to his favorite social media platform, Instagram, to address Best Rap Album nominations: “Best Rap Album (laughs). They out of touch this s**t ain’t it, get the f**k outta here.” Check out the actual post below:

All that lil’ boy s**t, yeah it make it evident
Made millions in these streets, what the f**k is 50 Cent?
And it’s still Free Meech, love him if he right or wrong
But the streets wanna know, do we really get along
If you askin’ me, ni**a, that’s one thousand percent.”

50 Cent’s “In Da Club” hits 1 Billion views on YouTube

Probably 50 Cent’s greatest hit song “In Da Club” has just surpassed 1 billion views on YouTube. The song was originally supposed to be a D12 song for the 8 Mile soundtrack album. Dr. Dre, who produced the track, played the instrumental for Fifty, who immediately wrote the lyrics for the song within an hour.

According to The Billboard Book Of Number 1 Hits, when choosing which song should be the lead single for Get Rich or Die Tryin’s album, Eminem favored “If I Can’t” but Dre insisted “In da Club” instead. After they tossed the coin, “In da Club” was chosen. The music video of the song features cameos from both, Eminem and Dr. Dre.

“In da Club” eventually was released as the lead single for Get Rich Or Die Tryin’ under Shady Records. The song hit No. 1 in seven countries and went multi-platinum in the United States.

During a recent appearance on The Joe Budden Podcast, Westside Gunn revealed that he’s off Eminem’s Shady Records. The founder of the almighty Griselda Records told to Joe Budden, Rory and Mal:

“Um, I am off Shady. I am off Shady. I am actually a free agent. It feels great. Who Made The Sunshine album was it. I already spoke to Paul Rosenberg. Everything is good. Like, everything is signed, sealed and delivered I have my paperwork, like I’m off Shady.

“I am one of those type of dudes I am not no public talking ni**a. That is just how I move. It is like saying me and Benny or me and Conway or Conway and Benny or whoever, we might have a disagreement, but the world will never know. We still gonna be brothers and cousins. It is the same way even with business, because at the end of the day, this a big world. Even if somebody else is a sucka, I am never gonna play that sucka role.”

Ni**as were in prison. Ni**as are from eastside Buffalo. However you wanna play it our story is better.”

“They are afraid to give Pop Smoke Grammys because they think it is teaching the audience to want to be like Pop. And to be like him is to be a part of gang culture. Who you see get Grammys that is making Drill music? You mean to tell me ain’t none of those songs worthy of it? Those platforms are not for them to acknowledge. It is for the culture, the people to embrace those tones and to really appreciate the artist for doing that.” 50 Cent added.
