50 Cent tries to continue beef with Kanye West, only makes himself look bad

January 13, 2009 1:12 p.m. by Andrew Winistorfer

So 50 Cent hasn't quite given up on his conflict with Kanye West (that 50 has clearly lost)-- 50's website, This is 50, recently released a video titled "Kanye West Gets His Style From The Gays," that features Kanye talking about how gay people, in his opinion, dress the best.

50 (or, more likely, his entourage) clearly sees the video as a way to say that Kanye is homosexual, as evidenced by the title. But I'm not sure what they think the end result of putting this clip out will be. Do they think people wil stop listening to Kanye over the video? The video's point (I think) is to discredit West in the machismo-heavy gangster rap genre, but West has always detached himself from that world since the drop.

If 50 really wanted to go after West for what he said in the video, he should have talked about how Kanye tries to make sure that he comes off as a straight guy who likes how homosexuals dress, not necessarily them personally. And how he jokes that he has to make sure that homosexuals know he's not into them, he just likes their clothes. But that's obviously not going to happen. [Real Talk NY]

I've said it before and I'll say it again.....only two 50 Cent albums you should listen to are "Power of the Dollar" and "Guess Who's Back".
And shouldn't he have retired anyway? Last I checked he said if Kanye outsold him he would retire........

confused

My Niggas, wouldn't you be a faggot ass blogger too? Not just because you posted a blog yourself (which happened to be the longest response) but because you obviously go around reading them too. Also very nice use of capital letters, you really show your emotion through them. I guess what I am trying to say My Niggas is you know you get down to Kayne's latest album...You little BITCH! Notice the capital letters

let's see who sounds more gay. the dude who don't really give a damn about what no other dude think about his style, or the dude who is always constantly tryin' to impress other dudes and trying to prove his 'hardness' to them.
if you comfortable with your sexuality you could wear anything and be THE EFFING MAN!

ayottemc

Ummmmm............. this is one of the worst posts ever, just because you dont like 50 doesnt mean you have to put a negative spin on everything. That is kind of a weird statement to make, and I think your just hating because 50 is making a comeback

Perpetually shirtless rapper 50 Cent, rarely seen without his boyfriends, sure is one pathetic little bitch.

Kanye opts not to hate on minorities. He's the better man by a mile.

January 14, 2009 at 1:27 p.m.

ME	50 Cent give up already. You have been trying to build hype for your new album(which will be CRAP as the rest of yours) for the past few weeks by constantly attacking Kanye. Come back when you learn how to rap or make good music.

January 14, 2009 at 1:29 p.m.

JosephGh

all Ye haters should EAT SH*T & DIE . f*ck this sh*tty comeback that based on dissin better artists like wayne and kanye . and yeah 50 have the right to think that he's gay cause kanye absolutely slit his f*ckin ass on 9/11 . so shut the f*ck up u haters that hatin fo no reason .

HIS NEXT ALBUM IS GONNA SELLL MILLLLLSSSS SO CALMURSELF WITH 808 AND HEARTBREAKS

January 15, 2009 at 12:26 p.m.

THE TRUTH

DAMN, QUIT HATIN ON 50.
1. DO THE RESEARCH, THE SOUNDSCAN UPDATES SAY 50 WON THE BATTLE AGAINST KANYE.

2. 50 LOVES HIPHOP, HE'S ONLY DEFENDING WHAT HE LOVES. KANYE SAYS HE WANTS TO BE A PORN STAR. RAPPERS CAN'T BE GAY PORN STARS. SO 50 IS JUST TRYING TO SET THE RECORD STRAIGHT.

3. GGG-UNIT NEVER SLIPPED UP, SO F*** OFF

January 16, 2009 at 6:18 p.m.

No Lie

Lets see first off,
why do rappers think that if they talk smack, it will make them look like a tougher man. Im pretty sure that 50cent is old enough to know that trash talking and fighting will not solve anything. What are you 16 years old, c'mon 50 grow up.
Second, i dont see why everybody still hates on gay people like its the thing to do. Like i say to 50 grow up people its 2009.
Today fashion is run by women and mostly gay men, so everything your wearing was probably designed by a gay man. haha thats the truth

ottis

50 cent aka monkey lost against kanye west and wasn't the monkey in he's words suppose to retire if kanye west beat him in record sales, I think the dirty tricks 50 cent is doing right now going to lose alot of fans due to he's stupidity, The monkey lost so he should retire

February 24, 2009 at 3:15 p.m.

ribbone

Yeah that clown said he'd retire and no one is holding him to it. He is automatically corny @ss he!! anyway for saying that and then getting his head bust by Ye! This dude is like the most irritating person in the world, off with his head already!

I love all those rappers. 50 cent has a sexy butt. I would love to be his bitch and I'm a dude. I'll give it up for any sexy black guy that wants to bitch slap me and show me how much a man he really is.
