Sherwood brought out a good point though....50's movie is going to be coming out soon..i guarantee you'll be seeing more and more of 50 around the time his movie comes out...its all publicity...do i really think 50 meant what he said..IMO no. I think its just a ploy to get on the good side of people and basically indirectly promote that trash of a movie

It could be but if you think about the statement, it isn't a very popular one. Sure it brings controversy but I am sure it angered a lot of fans who don't like Bush and that could hurt him, not help him. I'd like to know when this interview was as well as how many interviews he has done since Kanye made his comment. That would give more insight into if this is just a ploy.

this kanye thing happened over 2 months ago, dont you think that he'd of responded already? of course not, because he really doesnt care.

:werd: to that. Also, his video game is also coming out. If he doesn't make himself visible, I'm willing to bet this stuff will slip completely under the radar.

It's a circle-jerk of stupidity and attention whoring. Just add some Paris Hilton and Lindsy Lohan to the mix, and you'll have a veritable orgy of synthetic personalities...

He did the This Cant Be Life track off of i think the Dynasty Album...which came out waaaaaaaaay before 50 hit the mainstream scene. But to keep this post on track. I just feel that 50 is just finding ways to take shots at Kanye. Just like later hes going to find ways to take shots at Samuel L Jackson since those 2 are beefin

I heard about the Samuel Jackson thing. That was just plain stupid. And if you want to talk stealing the got hurt bit, didn't 2pac say, "now you all about Versace, you copy my style. Five shots couldn't drop me, I took it and smiled."

They are both morons damaging Black America. Kanye West(is that a made up name?)by making a bad situation worse by runnin' his head. Curtis Jackson by glamorizing the "gangsta" lifestyle. Neither one is any prize.

The only reason any of this is news at all is because the average person is a friggin' idjut who thinks knowing whose boyfriend Paris Hilton is currently fucking is remotely interesting.

Im like dude you're a hypocrite...if some no name dude came up to you and was like hey i can rap even though ive never rapped a day in my life...would u take him serious...so i think samuel jackson was in the right..i wouldnt do a movie with someone who i dont know have any talent. Its sorta like a resume...but in the acting world..it doesnt really go by your performance if you ask me..it goes by the movie...Look at LL Cool J movies....Look at Friday...Ice Cube over the years have become an OK actor...but if it wasnt for the movie...thered be no ice cube...so 50 just mad that Samuel didnt wanna be in his movie. But then to call them man a crack head and shit is just plain ludicrous
