How To Handle ‘Beef’, By 50 Cent

Upon preparation for his performance in London, 50 Cent spoke with Tim Westwood (*presses explosion and horn buttons*) via telephone on his BBC radio show. During the interview Fiddy talks on how he handles his ‘Beef’ issues, which have caused many a-rifts with high profile battles with likes of Fat Joe, Rick Ross, and the more recent P Diddy. He states that they are purely reactionary, and that he will not be as quick to respond to future attacks because his altercations have earned him an unfair “bad guy” reputation.

He says: “I don’t have…issues with people until they say things that make me feel like they want a problem, point to one situation that I’ve been in, one altercation where I was competing with another artist that I’ve started…Ain’t that hip-hop? There’s always been battling. It’s always been a part of the culture. In the future, because I’ve been kind of captured as the actual bad guy on some level because they watch me compete and win and it feels like it was effortless, I will [make] a point to not even respond. I’ll just look and watch people when they say things.”

Sounds like he just speaks the truth in all honesty, or atleast just funnily blunt. Checkout the video below where he speaks more on beef and also talks about internet rumours, such as possible ‘Techno’ vibe on 50 Cent’s ‘Black Magic’ album (the bit where Tim Westwood shouts at him, and Fiddy just reacts confused and normal makes me laugh), the possible Mysterious Girl remix, and more.

Leave us your thoughts, whilst I go dropkick Westwood.
