He Has To Be Joking


Guess who wants be Kanye West's mentor when it comes to public perception? How about 50 Cent. Yep. 50 Cent says that Kanye should look to 50 as a mentor and that 50 Cent can show him how to deal with the public and intrusive press. And take a look at this dig at Kanye from the NY Daily News.

"You'll see artists like Kanye West, he recently had a little incident in the airport. After he's been successful for a longer period, he'll let that frustration go without incident. I've had enough time to get used to the fact that people might want to take my picture when I don't want it taken, but I accept it."

Did I miss something here? So, is 50 Cent saying he is a bigger star than Kanye? I think 50 Cent is more used to having cameras shoved in his face because of the way he handles his personal life. I mean if he is passing out advice I'm sure we would all love to know how to deal with ex-wives and kids and houses burning down and evicting your kid and making him homeless. I mean these are all good things to know and I'm sure Kanye will be grateful for the lessons that 50 can pass on.

The thing about is, 50 Cent was being serious. He didn't say this while he was laughing. He is dead serious that he thinks he is a much bigger star than Kanye and that Kanye should look to him for advice. Wow. He needs someone to tell him no in his life sometime.

OT: Your formatting looks much better lately, EL, you take my advice about switching to Firefox?

Oh and anyone else notice in the past month or two that Perez Hilton's writings and doodles have improved ten fold? Perezzy has a ghost writer.

Uhm 50 better milk this all he can because everybody knows the rap game only last but for so long. Don't believe me ask Kurtis Blow, Eric B & Rakim, and all those who fell before them

Where did he say bigger star? You said that. He said he handles superstardom better. And he does. Thats not even debatable.

I like Kanye's music better, but as people they both lose. So there really is no point in picking a side IMO. They're both arrogant asses who should share a big steaming pot of STFU.

joseph, he didn't say it directly but it was heavily implied - "After he's been successful for a longer period, he'll let that frustration go without incident. I've had enough time to get used to the fact" He's basically saying Kanye hasn't "had enough time" like he has.

I really should know the answer myself but didn't 50 and Kanye become big (mainstream) at about the same time? It's not like 50 has had this HUGE amount of extra time to become adjusted to fame. Let's face it, Kanye's temper is not about him just not being used to fame and 50 should know that. It's about Kanye just being spoiled ass Kanye and he's going to be throwing tantrums five years from now, ten years from now. He was bitching about not getting the recognition he deserved when his first album came out, he's whining about it now at his prime, and he's going to continue whining about it long after his career is over. This has nothing to do with not being 'used' to cameras. If anything it's about the fact that in Kanye's mind, there aren't enough cameras, enough attention, enough awards.

Now! said...

Didn't 50 cent promise to retire if Kanye sold more albums than him in the first week of release? And then Kanye DID sell more albums?

Where's that retirement? I'm waiting for it. It's worked well for Eminem.

kay what worked well for eminem? He has a new album coming out.

someone did say no, and he burned the fucking house down.

lutefisk said...

if Kanye doesn't listen, fiddy might burn down his house.

Rhianna said...

I second jax on the no and 50. Hopefully this time he won't try to burn his own child to death in the process, but loss of life doesn't seem to matter in 50's world.
