Entry: Beef! Where Will It End? Monday, July 04, 2005



 The Game                                       50 Cent

This is not Flya                                   

   The Game was the fifth member of the rap group G-Unit just a few months ago, until 50 Cent announced on the radio he was releasing The Game from G-Unit. 50 Cent claimed that the rapper was disloyal for not participating in his rap feud with Nas, Jadakiss, and Fat Joe and not giving him proper credit for The Game's album debut. 50 Cent claimed that The Game was not only a "hard head" but almost a risk for the whole G-Unit group because it caused strained relations with Lloyd Banks and 50 Cent. He felt that his album was being neglected for The Game and his jealousy was fueled by their constant arguing while on tour together. Also there were rumors that 50 Cent had a pushing match with The Game. After hearing of the interview in which 50 Cent was kicking Game out of G-Unit, The Game had gone to confront 50 Cent at the Hot 97 radio station since 50 had not previously talked to Game about his dismissal from the group. When they were not allowed entry to the building, the entourage of both 50 Cent and The Game were involved in a dispute leading to a member of Game's entourage getting shot and wounded. 50 Cent ended his interview while on air as he was rushed out of the building.

   The rappers had officially put an end to the disagreement between one another and donated money to charitable causes. Although they rarely made eye contact, they both agreed that they were not risking their lives over this feud. Within a few weeks, 50 Cent and G-Unit were dissing The Game once again. In the XXL Magazine, 50 Cent was still dissing The Game, and claimed that without his support on the next album, The Game will not see multi-platinum sales. He also went on to say that Game is not a gangsta and he only says he has an AK47 to make people think he is a gangsta. Tony Yayo was on Power 105 in New York re-igniting the feud between G-Unit and The Game. Yayo was commenting about the street credibility about The Game and talking about his Change Of Heart appearance. 50 Cent filed a lawsuit against Jimmy Henchmen, the manager of The Game. The rapper sued Henchmen over the filming of the DVD the original "50 Cent" in Infamous Times. The movie chronicles the life of Kelvin "50 Cents" Martin and the rapper authorized footage for the DVD. Henchmen dismissed the lawsuit, stating that 50 Cent's jealousy of The Game was the reason for him suing him.

   At New York radio station Hot 97's Summer Jam concert at Giant's Stadium in New Jersey on June 5th 2005, The Game's performance confirmed that his feud with G-Unit has not been squashed. During his performance The Game slandered G-Unit several times, at one point yelling out "G-g-g-g-u-not". The insults culminated in the appearance of a mascot dressed up as a rat sporting a G-Unit tank top on stage. The rat represented 50 Cent, who has been accused of snitching and placing others in jail by other rappers such as Fat Joe and Jadakiss. The mascot was then beaten down by members of The Black Wall Street. During the set, The Game challenged his former G-Unit members, and capped this off by tossing his G-Unit chain into the crowd, and yelling "Fuck this chain!" The outlashing at G-Unit received mixed crowd response.

   He recently released "300 bars", a 15 minute diss at G-unit attacking every single member of his former crew.

   In mid-June 2005, The Game released a 15-minute-long diss song entitled 300 Bars and Runnin' (the title an homage to NWA's 100 Miles and Runnin' EP), addressing various enemies of his, including Memphis Bleek, 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, Olivia, and Tony Yayo, among others. Notably, The Game explicitly quells rumours of a growing beef between himself and Jay-Z ("That wasn't no subliminal, Jay"), though whether or not the beef will stay squashed is another issue. The track's instrumental is comprised of several famous hip-hop beats, including Jay-Z's Dead Presidents, 50 Cent's In Da Club, Kanye West's Diamonds (From Sierra Leone) (the first single from his sophomore LP, Late Registration) and more.
